It does happen: 19% of bankruptcies in Canada are related to medical issues. It's not the cost of treating the condition itself, but rather the loss of income that comes with a prolonged illness.

In the United States, the three levels of government spend more taxpayer money ($US 7,350/person) to provide healthcare to less than half the population than Canada does ($6,700) to cover everyone in the country. And Canada gets better results. ⸤1118c⸥

Story checks out: In 2014 the Maruyama Zoo in Sapporo, Japan disclosed that the two spotted hyenas it had received in 2010 as a “male‑female pair” from a South Korean zoo were in fact both male. Anatomy makes spotted hyena males and females notoriously difficult to tell apart; ultrasound is best.

You're not crazy: the movie is very much an acquired taste. In many ways it's amazing—especially for its time. But the pace is positively glacial. A good hack could probably edit it down to about 45 minutes running time 😧

For perspective: "Investing" $2 billion on people would come out to $7.03 for each of the 240 million people in the country.

Careful—when it's -25°C in Canada people post the same thing but in the opposite direction. “It's SO COLD outside! Global warming is a HOAX!"
No; it’s global climate *change,* and indeed the atmosphere and oceans are warming.

RAID protects your NAS from a single drive failure, but it won’t stop an errant "rm ‑f" from erasing files across the entire array. Once a file is removed from the shared volume, it disappears from every disk at once. RAID keeps the lights on; backup keeps the data safe.
