That's fair, I can appreciate an attack vector in cases where there are bad blocks and the drive was unencrypted. Luckily bad blocks are less common with modern SSDs and assuming the disk was encrypted, a few bad blocks are unlikely to expose any contents. So knowing the number of bad blocks and what data was stored would inform if a fill and empty approach would be suitable to sanitize the drive.

Can you move to a place where the earning to spending ratio is more in your favor? Somewhere with cheaper living expenses or higher pay?

Don't follow someone else's path. I took a year off to travel in my 20s, a year off to sail in my 30s, and now that I'm 40 I'm planning another year long adventure in the next 5 years. I wasn't born into wealth, I spent less than I earned, invested the rest, and avoided debt. Don't get a big house in the suburbs with a mortgage, new lease car every 4 years, student loans, etc unless that's what your actually want. Set yourself up for success with smart money management so you can do what you want.

I never said she doesn't know anything about science because she's a lawyer. I'm saying that she's not a scientist and she works for an anti pesticide organization. Both of those facts are important and not mentioned in the article. I never attacked her character.

Obviously! I never said being a lawyer precludes knowledge of science. Your comment is a ludicrous straw man 😂

Firstly, the burden of proof should be on the person making the claim and Mary Lou McDonald offers no evidence for her claim.

Secondly, I'm not making an ad hominem fallacy. I'm not attacking Mary Lou McDonald's character. I'm pointing out that she is not an expert in this field.

100% and commercial social media algorithms amplify the clickbait and bury and nuanced perspectives

This is Canada, file a freedom of information request, read the peer reviewed articles. Using a science-based process to update the maximum residue limit is exactly what they should be doing. Anti-science conspiracy theories wrapped in cynicism is not helpful.

not for solving technical problems

One example is writing complex regex. A simple well written prompt can get you 90% the way there. It's a huge time saver.

for generating prose

It's great a writing boilerplate code so I can spend more of my time architecturing solutions instead of typing.

It was never about not pooping for 3 days. It was about pooping 3 days worth of poop at once on some rocks

Is there any way to verify their claim? Have they released any data yet?
