housingcohorts.ca Canada’s housing market needs new models. Housing Cohorts helps groups of future homeowners organize, align, and move toward real housing projects together — from interest to development. Co-ops, townhomes, shared ownership, and community-driven housing built for the next generation. 🏘️

@jr_delecto @KevinCastley @UhNuh53415 That's why we keep stifling competition by handing out billions in subsidies and grants to people best able to schmooze and donate back to political parties.

@BStoneBrief @KevinCastley @UhNuh53415 The job of the economic system isn’t to make sure everyone does the right thing. Its job is to allow for innovation to make things easier and better for everyone, freedom to reward those who are the most innovative, productive and prosperity for people that contribute to society

Riddle me this, conservative! If capitalism is righteous, Why does Chicago look this degen?

@Conservative_BC Love how you slip in race baiting at the end like nobody's going to notice.

Eby may still be Premier for at least this week, but the decline of BC was a team effort by the BC NDP. #bcpoli

@_0xghost_ Check out Qarnot in France. I'm too poor or I'd do the same thing.

Decentralized AI. Who is building this?

@AnthropicAI Might I recommend moving to Canada in these trying times

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

@Kaelon @reallyoptimized Have you read the papers on compressing AI training data?

Firstly, it's a pipe-dream to imagine that local models can manage the vast compute and context required of a frontier model like Fable. Maybe some distant future, but not now. Secondly, I think we are approaching a major hockey-stick moment (and it's been accelerating since last September with the pivot to agentic AI, thanks in large part to Anthropic's pioneering work), and the entire economy is accelerating into the unknown. This requires some intentionality and a lot of control. This isn't software. This is more like a weapon test.

Everyone is missing the bigger story here. This is today. Models are improving exponentially. This model that has to be blocked will look amateur within months. Local models will match it soon enough. What's the plan exactly?

@ns123abc Didn't this break the anti-AI-regulation laws that Trump signed

🚨BREAKING: The U.S government gave Anthropic 90 minutes to shut down Fable and Mythos “Amazon AND others” called senior administration officials to warn about models’ capabilities Then: 1:00pm: Government calls. “Take it down.” Cites “national security threat.” No details. Anthropic asks what the threat is so they can fix it. Government said NO. 5:30pm: Commerce letter arrives with export controls. You have 90 minutes…

@JimChuong Give me 50 billion in 2003 money converted to today and I'll be a trillionaire in two decades too.

Millionaire at age 27 Billionaire at age 41 Trillionaire at age 54

@BearWithMePC @MichelleRempel @elonmusk You moron, I'm comparing to Musk who got that handout.

@BStoneBrief @MichelleRempel @elonmusk Stop asking for handouts and do the work

I wonder why @elonmusk, who is Canadian, decided not to build his civilization-changing, historic-levels-of-wealth-creating companies in Canada? It will remain a mystery.

@mileslunn Could I have 1000 pebbles and some jackoff buys one of my pebbles for $1000, instantly making me a millionaire?

Musk is a trillionaire in wealth not income. Essentially if sold all assets would have that but never made anywhere near. If a company worth $10 trillion and one owns 10% of shares they are a trillionaire. If company value falls, their net worth falls irrespective of income

@mileslunn Correct. It's a shell game of people inflating the value to launder money.

@SteveOnSpeed The ones pretending to be financially literate are just corrupt and know he gets government contracts so they're betting on money laundering tax money, so... I guess we are all either human garbage or illiterate.

Do people think musk is a trillionaire because he literally has $1 trillion sitting in a bank account that he can disperse as he pleases? People are even more financially illiterate than I thought.

@MapleMomEh Me for now and I'm not even working

How many Canadians can say that their fridges, gas tanks and bank accounts are not empty ? 🙋🏻‍♀️

@denisebparsons @doggintrump 💯 This is about money laundering through government contracts.

@doggintrump Speculation and lots of nepotism cheating and re-writing rules by the FTC.

Someone explained this to me like I never took a math class How can a company, that is apparently only taken in $18 billion, worth 1 trillion?

@doggintrump Morons is how.

@RoaringHammy $25k would translate into one of you receiving ~$100 a month for the rest of your life on investments. Why would you waste that on two weeks of frivolity?

What is the most you would spend on vacation? My family budgeted $25k cad ($17.5k usd) for a 2.5 week trip to Europe. Do you think this is too little or too much?

@KevinCastley @UhNuh53415 Next the bootlickers will point at the traditional cave towns with walls and doors and heating and lighting and pretend that's homelessness.

Simple. China is a communist state ruled by the CPC which builds housing for homeless The US and Canada leave the homeless out on the streets and in the parks to terrify the working masses into compliance for fear of ending up like them They give us goyslop and demand our appreciation

@KerryLynneFindl Oh good back to the race baiting. Calmer heads will prevail with the SCC.

The NDP’s decisions on DRIPA, their changes to the Interpretation Act, and the uncertainty from the Cowichan ruling are undermining the security of homes, farms, and businesses across our province. When fee simple title is cast into doubt, families lose confidence, investors walk away, and vital projects like pipelines to tidewater are stalled. This is the frustration our Alberta neighbours feel, and it weakens us all. I know these issues firsthand. I fought and won a landmark property rights case at the Supreme Court of Canada on the Musqueam leasehold dispute, defending ordinary homeowners against overreach. Secure property rights are essential to freedom, family stability, and a thriving economy. The NDP cannot credibly lecture Alberta about unity while his policies create the very roadblocks fuelling Western concerns. British Columbians expect better. While the NDP pushes policies that sow division, our Conservative vision will strengthen the West and deliver a far more prosperous British Columbia for every family. This is about good-paying jobs, safer communities, and a province where families can afford to stay and build their futures. Having served in Stephen Harper’s cabinet, where we lowered taxes and returned to surplus, I know how to deliver these results. The NDP’s ideological experiments have gone on long enough. I invite every British Columbian who believes in freedom and prosperity to join the BC Conservative movement today. Become a member and help us build the team that will rescue our province. Join me. Together we will defeat the NDP

@colinsmithcls @MlogicGr8Again @DissentFu He's actually refering to a time when only Jews were allowed to loan money and then collectively scapegoated when the King didn't want to pay them back.

@MlogicGr8Again @DissentFu Making it illegal to charge interest doesn't make it free to borrow...it makes it impossible to borrow.

I am 52 years old. I have been working since I was 15 years old. I have no savings, no retirement, and will never own a home before I die. And there is now a trillionaire.

@MlogicGr8Again @DissentFu Interest wasn't illegal, it was illegal for Christians meaning the law intentionally created a class of userers who could be scapegoated.

@DissentFu How do you feel when you learn that "interest" on loans used to be illegal? It was considered immoral and [is still] only practiced by the satanic. They fooled our grandparents into accepting the 30yr mortgage scam.. it doesn't have to be that way.
