If you're planning on being a software developer, find a different career ASAP. The industry is collapsing and employment prospects are becoming slimmer and slimmer. in c/unpopularopinion

Yes, I'm in Canada and a software programmer for 25 years, and yes it's not the golden age anymore, but we don't have those H1B visa problem here. It also really depends of your field, if it's frontend web/javascript it's harder to find. If you are backend or embedded linux etc, it's better I think.

Some fields like FPGA is highly looked for too.

What would happen if USA invades Canada? (self.nostupidquestions)

No stupid question... it seems Trump is ready to invade (military) Panama and Greenland (red white blueland), so even if with Canada he always talk about economic war and annexing Canada blablabla...

What would happen if USA invades Canada? What would be the reaction of the Canada King (Charles III is the king of Canada)? The Commonwealth? NATO?

Only 13 new condos sold in Montréal in 3 months (www.985fm.ca)
 

Can you believe that, it's incredible... there's thousands and thousands empty condos in Montréal, a lot are new, and they continue to build them, sometimes even in high rising towers and all. A lot of them are illegal airbnb too.

Why they cannot sell them? They are small, expensive, and sometimes badly placed (no metro, no parking, bad area, place without services around, etc).

13 in 3 months in downtown area!!!

Je me suis inscrit sur le site Guichet d'accès à un médecin de famille le 2 octobre 2017. Ça disait le temps d'attente moyen est de 357 jours.

Hier j'ai reçu une lettre m'assignant un médecin de famille, il s'est écoulé 2583 jours soit 7 ans et 26 jours.

Pas mal :)

Quelqu'un a un clavier Logitech MX Keys for Business (www.logitech.com)

Je cherchais un clavier type scissors silencieux en Français Canadien, c'est rare comme d'la marde de pape, j'en ai trouvé 2, le Dell KB900, et le Logitech MX Keys qui semble assez nouveau.

Si quelqu'un en a un, comment est le rétro-éclairage? le clavier semble avoir sur les touches les dénominations CA_FR et les CMS, (et Mac aussi pour les touches de contrôle). Qu'est-ce qui s'allume là dedans?

I have an old application, EagleCAD, from 2014, a 32bit app, I managed to install it on my linux (Debian based, 64bits) and it works fine, but I had to look for and install some lib manually.

How can I package all this, the bin and libs, into one that I could easily re-install on about any distro? AppImage? Flatpak? Snap?
