I work in construction and I don't know that I agree. They're digging a tunnel for a road, not mining, and earthworks crews generally consistent of equipment operators and labourers.

My dad has a gun licence (Canadian) and interestingly, he mentioned there was a place in the application where your spouse (and/or former spouse) must sign off on your application too. I can see how that might hinder a few violent exes.

As someone with family members who are type 1 diabetics, I have heard the joke that everyone who gets diagnosed with it is told there will be a cure in 10 years. It's nice to see they've started trials on this at least.

I don't understand how they think this is going to help staffing when they will be unable to find staff in areas where there is a higher cost of living.

In the last line of the article some restaurant person said "it's very popular with people and runs out within the first half hour" . . . but perhaps the general population isn't sure what to do with them yet, as much as the chefs do anyway.

I often just cook the beans in a slow cooker on low overnight. No soaking necessary.

Yeah, I know little of IT (as I'm a mech engineer, in construction) but find the story telling to be so good it's one of my favorite podcasts.
