The @PremierScottMoe gov predicted a 2023 surplus of $1 Billion but ended the year $700m more in debt....despite taking $1B more from #Sask taxpayers. Mr. Premier, where did all the money you took from us go? #skpoli

One of the most impactful and infuriating algorithms in our lives is the routing algorithm on Google Maps. With 80% market share, it offers us very little control over our routes. If we want better, we will need to support competition like OpenStreetMaps. My latest for NYT Opinion (gift link):

Opinion | Your Driving App Is Leading You Astraywww.nytimes.com Programmed to find the fastest route without consideration of literally anything else, driving apps endanger and infuriate us on a remarkably regular basis.

Even though the rock formations in Red Rocks Park, near Morrison, Colorado, are visible from the surrounding roads, they can't be fully appreciated without walking among them. #colorado #scenery #photography

Should someone tell him that ANYONE who does not pay their taxes will have CRA "after them" ? Playing the victim and creating angst against folks just doing their jobs is both unbecoming as a leader and dangerous Wise up, Mr. Premier, before someone gets hurt #skpoli #Sask

"Minimum wage earners are not teenagers earning a little extra spending money," he said. "These are primarily people trying to feed their families." This is not 2015 when $15 would have been useful, Cost of living in 2024 is much higher. Chain it to inflation. #skpoli #Sask

Quarterly Question Period: What exactly has @PremierScottMoe done for the province of Saskatchewan? Is healthcare or education improved? Are taxes lower? Is Saskatchewan more affordable? Is the public debt in check? Well? #skpoli #Saskatchewan

Breaking news: The Supreme Court rejected a Republican-led effort to sharply limit White House officials and other federal employees from pressuring social media companies to remove posts from their platforms that the U.S. government deems problematic.

The @saskparty gov greedily takes money from the feds allegedly for lowering carbon pollution in the province (pic 1), then say they won't comply with the regulations (pic 2). Where did the money go, @PremierScottMoe Certainly not to #healthcare #EdSK or tax cuts #skpoli

Wonder what the @PremierScottMoe gov does with the extra $2.4 Billion in taxes it collects (pic 1)? Not for #healthcare or #EdSK or #affordability or even a PST cut to make our daily lives easier Nope, it goes to things like subsidies to big biz (pic 2) #skpoli #saskatchewan
