I would actually argue that a large part of Canada's issues in this regard is leakage from our southern border. Not all of it, of course. But a large part. Media is dominated by US perspectives, including all your garbage.

Yes, this is the crux of the matter.
If you give a person a choice between starving or screwing over the rest of society, they will choose the food nearly every time. Change the first part to "starve their children" and it basically becomes an absolute.
Yeah, people rating their insurance as "excellent" obviously comes with the implied "compared to other US healthcare insurance options," if you read the rest of it or spend even 5 seconds thinking about it.
This article and discussion is specifically about massively upscaling LLMs. Go follow the links and read OpenAI's CEO literally proposing data centers which require multiple, dedicated grid-scale nuclear reactors.
I'm not sure what your definition of optimization and efficiency is, but that sure as heck does not fit mine.
Don't look for statistical precision in analogies. That's why it's called an analogy, not a calculation.
No, this is the equivalent of writing off calculators if they required as much power as a city block. There are some applications for LLMs, but if they cost this much power, they're doing far more harm than good.
Semicolons are technically optional in JS, but there are some rare cases where omitting them can result in different behaviour.
And this is why you should enforce code style, kids. Preferably with an automated tool.
I'll take a stab at it.
"Researchers spend $X to see whether poison leaking into the ground gets into our water."
Yeah, I don't know why you're getting so many down votes. That is what Hitler's party was called, so technically Poilievre isn't lying. He's still a dumbass for seriously stating that position and purposefully spreading confusion for his own benefit, but it's technically not a lie.
Your first paragraph assumes that labour costs are the same in both markets and that there is little development or tooling cost to setting up that manufacturing base locally. Both are false, and both of those are really the reason overseas manufacturing is a thing in the first place.
Excellent work, thanks for the laugh.
