So what about the deaf community? Doesn’t sign language need to be also considered at an national level? Oh right there is someone that helps just like a bilingual translator.

Again making a fuss about something common sense has overruled.

Same issue with bringing in medication from out of country without bilingual instructions. We all have devices and access to something to translate. I’d happily have all French medication if it meant relief of symptoms.

It’s a great feeling once you start your first print after assembly. You get that moment of wow I built something that is making something that could be used to make something else.

I have a MK3S+ and it’s great! I bought an MMUS2 but haven’t assembled it. Still playing around with a single colour or doing the swap mid print.

Wish they would go after companies that produce millions upon millions of tonnes of plastic bullshit. I’m not sorry if you created some widget, gadget, toy and it’s soul purpose is to be an injection molded happy meal 5 minute amusement piece. Capitalism… blah blah yeah yeah I know. A shift needs to happen.

Seems to be a theme with wildfire followed by flooding in the last decade.

Wonder when .co will go back to Colombia?

You animal! I assume with a pry between the seam and possibly pushing a bit on one of the peg springs it should come out alright.

Oh for sure! It was my first introduction to P3 with the Regina “Ring Road” Project.

Now in Alberta having children go to a P3 school I’m like this is absolutely ridiculous.

Saskatchewan the Brad Wall way… who’s on the take should be a publicly visible record for other provinces to see that P3 only benefits the players that scheme it.

When private is tired or got their pound of fat or see the forthcoming maintenance they either give all back to the public or get another layer of grease from their service companies they own.

It’s a mental adjustment. It’s a schedule or routine you and your partner may need to build. All depends on how you keep your domicile concerning the errands aspect.

I’d carve out your productive time or when the creative juices flow and try to get that moment for you setup for the day you’d get. Then have your mindmap, notebook or whatever easily accessible to just note or draw your thoughts on the problems or concepts.

Maybe you can look into alternative sleep cycles (Edison, Tesla, Bell etc) and see if that allows for a you time.

I’ve found looking for news aggregated sites related to your niche can also just give you a little pick me up boost to stay in the know on trends but also gives you content for say a Pocket or repo to gather content to read before bed or another time. Heck even reading it to your young one.

I’ve been combatting this for several years. Once the independence kicks in for them you are freed of things you thought you would never be. Also really neat when they are interested and or can do work while mom or dad works.

About payment problems. If the employer looks to 4 day work weeks it’s either going to be 4-8’s or 4-10’s and if 8’s to stay competitive will need to accommodate for 5-8’s pay schedule. Then there is the pay off of carving out your time to maybe push a side project or contribute for a slice of revenue that could be your play money.

If only this were true for all.

That one day usually gets occupied with wanting to clean the house or get other chores done so the weekend is available for the family to enjoy together.

Daycare costs cause for reevaluation of need once they hit school age.

Employers also need to have upgrading or continued education built into budgets to allow for that growth as well or at least I’m hopeful they would do that. Understandably you train people to leave is the mantra I’ve heard over and over. But those tend to be the better employers and the good karma comes back to them.
