Be on the lookout for any colourful toonies in your change — you could add Canada’s newest circulation coin to your collection.

The Royal Canadian Mint unveiled its latest $2 commemorative circulation coin honouring the work of Indigenous artist Daphne Odjig on Thursday.

The toonie is limited to a mintage of three million coins, of which two million are coloured. It begins circulating on Thursday, Sept. 4, so keep an eye out for it in your change.

The other variant:

He makes the bowl and spoon, and flavors the ice cream with other parts of the same tree.

This series is a weird mix of woodworking and cooking that doesn’t fit perfectly into either community. Still, it’s cool to see the process and the channel is about woodworking, so I usually post it in this one

You can skip to 10:00 to get to the woodworking part

Done

I’m a user on Lemmy and I posted the direct link in the Vancouver community here. Something seems to have changed with how Mastodon displays threadiverse content, since this is the second time someone has complained about it from mastodon in the past week. I’m not sure what I can do to help with the formatting from my side.

For what it’s worth, you should be able to see all the content without logging in to Lemmy, or any other threadiverse platform for that matter

Thank you! I’ve edited this into the post, and noted for next time!

I actually use lemmy-schedule for these posts, which seems to do it in this format. Maybe I can add the other communities to the post body to make discoverability easier :)

I’ll edit the title further to remove the “Canadian”

Yep, the companies are pushing AI models as being a “fair” and “unbiased” alternative to human workers. In reality LLLMs are going to be biased depending on the training data

Agreed with all of the above, and especially the point about the interior. When we’ve had people come to visit, that’s the part we often hear positive comments about.

I haven’t had a chance to try the tree area yet since it’s been closed the times when I travelled through, but I already love the water areas.

We do manufacturer some cars

The government justified its “tariff fortress” by pointing to China’s extensive industrial policy, such as subsidies, that artificially lower production costs. The tariffs were claimed to protect domestic producers by offsetting the cost advantage enjoyed by Chinese EV manufacturers.

Specifically, if the “flying rivers” of transpiration during dry seasons are from deep water tables or shallow groundwater:

The Amazon is the world’s largest tropical forest, home to unmatched biodiversity and one of the planet’s longest rivers. Besides the Amazon River, the Amazon rainforest also features “flying rivers:” invisible streams of vapour that travel through the atmosphere, fuelling rainfall both within the forest and far beyond its boundaries.

The forests play a central role in this system. Much of the moisture that rises into the atmosphere comes from transpiration. Trees pull water from the soil through their roots, transport it to the leaves and release it as vapour. That vapour becomes rainfall — sometimes locally, sometimes hundreds of kilometres away.

In the dry season when rain is scarce, up to 70 per cent of rainfall in the Amazon comes from this moisture-recycling generated by the forest itself. This raises a key question: where do the trees find the water to keep the cycle going during the driest months?

The results were surprising. Most water used for transpiration in the dry season did not come from deep reserves, but from shallow soil. In a year without extreme drought or floods, 69 per cent of transpiration on the hill and 46 per cent in the valley came from the top 50 centimetres of soil.

Our research also found that water stored in the shallow soil had fallen on land recently, specifically during the dry season. In other words, the forest rapidly recycles the rain: it falls, infiltrates shallow soil, is absorbed by roots and is released back into the atmosphere, fuelling new rainfall — right when the forest needs water most.

This is important because:

This delicate balance is threatened by deforestation. When forests are cut down, fewer trees release moisture into the air through transpiration, reducing the formation of local and nearby rainfall during the dry season.

Forest loss weakens the very system that sustains rainfall — the recycling of water through transpiration. Our study shows that embolism-resistant trees play a central role by quickly returning dry-season rainfall to the atmosphere, where it fuels new rainfall.

The message is clear: without the forest, there is no rain, and without rain, no forest. The quick recycling of dry-season rain keeps the Amazon alive through its driest months. It also plays a crucial role in triggering the return of the wet season. If the forest loses its ability to recycle this water, the entire hydrological cycle risks collapse.

Thanks!

Maybe we can, if someone reached out? Depending on what other social media platforms he is using

Per capita as well but it varies by region, there is an interactive graph on the article

I saw a video about the bench ramps, and they mentioned something important that I didn’t consider: they help with accessibility to move between the high sidewalk and the lower level path.

In his letter Friday to Kosseim, Shamji said that nearly one-third of all home-care patients in the province had their data compromised.

I couldn’t find specifics, but maybe you’ll be contacted now if you were affected?

I missed the link somehow, I’ve edited the post now. It’s open source (GPLv3).

They started as a startup, then shut down and open-sourced the project, and now it looks like they’re pivoting to something else

Yup, I think the article is about making sure the healthcare side is accounted for when building, rather than not building

Major infrastructure projects contribute to both local and provincial economies. When managed well, the economic benefits of such projects can positively contribute to community health.

But when not managed properly, the pressures that major infrastructure projects place on local health-care services can be significant. Therefore, we strongly urge governments and businesses to consider their impacts on overburdened and hard-working health-care providers in rural and remote communities.

On site medical attention would help as well:

How well a project manages its health service impacts clearly matters. When project workers resided in well-managed camps supported by competent onsite medical service providers, the pressures on the local system were less than when workforces did not have adequate accommodation and health supports.

AI is American hoax to win over China.
