With the insane growth streak that Canadian real estate has had, I’m not surprised that many households have decent net worth yet poor cash flow.

Lots of people bought households in Toronto / Vancouver for <$500k which are now valued at ~$2M. People are drawing on home equity line of credit to fund their lifestyles (vacations, renovations, new car, etc.)

I’m an American living in South Korea and am always shocked to see how locals will just leave their phones unattended — on the table in the restaurant or cafe while they order or use the washroom.

Remarkably, theft seems to be non-existent.

Here’s hoping it stays that way.

Very cool, it’s a nice way of following the news without too much distraction. I can just glance at the screen every couple of minutes to read a section.

Would you mind describing the process / tools for building this?

Absolutely agreed on this. We should all “embrace our mediocrity” and create things as we like — music, essays, art, etc.

It’s an innate human quality to be creative, so we should focus on that rather than external validation from like/upvote counts.

Another atrocity. This needs to end. Roughly 40,000 casualties since the start, including 100 journalists.
