Unfortunately the “bamboo” lids have a layer of acrylic on them, stated on their website. 

Hope they come up with a glass or stainless steel lid option

THANK GOODNESS!! Looked awful, and no reason to use. Easier on IDEs to rename args vs params.

Comme Ontarien de Toronto, je suis d’accord. L’urbanisme de Montréal est meilleur que celui de Toronto. Il y a nombreuses pistes cyclables, et la ville est plus accessible à pied. 

Par contre, Toronto est obsédé par les voitures, et par conséquent, les rues sont dangereuses pour les cyclistes. Et les rues piétonnes sont rares. 

La semaine prochaine je visiterai Montréal pour la première fois, et j’ai hâte de vivre la vie québécoise pendant un petit moment (et pratiquer le français)

I think their goal was to showcase the power Avatar State early on, as a hook. And it definitely worked, especially for new watchers who haven’t seen the OG cartoon. 

The Roku scene would’ve happened in the middle of the season, if they de-prioritized the Kyoshi scene.

But yeah seeing Avatar State Roku would’ve been amazing in live action!

Albert Kim, the producer of the adaptation talks about having to choose where to allocate VFX budget to in this interview, and he does mention that it’s so they could bring Koizilla.

Imo, showcasing Kyoshi at the beginning, then Koizilla in the finale was a great choice. Obviously Avatar State Roku would’ve been cool to see, but their choice made sense, given their budget. Here’s to hoping Netflix gives a bigger VFX budget + more than 8 episodes for a possible Season 2.

Interesting. Thanks for the link and suggestion!

I mainly wanted to stick to TD for the waived annual fee I get for 1 of their credit cards.

Outside of TD, what card do you recommend for travel insurance + useful points?

Ahh that makes sense. Thank you for your explanation. The whole idea of setuptools and poetry scripts is pretty obscure in Python

Solsticized

Thank you for your comprehensive reply! I had no idea about the [tool.poetry.scripts] part of poetry. I feel like a lot of these script entrypoints are pretty obscure in Python. Thanks again

Really cool set of one-liners!

For the merging two dictionaries section, PEP-584 syntax should be recommended:

merged_dict = dict1 | dict2

OMG thank you! That all makes sense now!

That's just what the environment variable was set to.

It's Dall-E mini from this site.

Yes, that's literally the point of equalization payments. Why not benefit all of Canada instead of letting provinces keep the revenue for themselves?

Best gift ever was the original Pokémon Diamond back then!

Hey may I come sell turnips?

Fries! Thank you!

I'm glad this is the case. Especially since adding more highways would add an even greater dependence on cars, not to mention the environmental impact.

It's hanging on the wall, but clips through the partition for the visual effect

Oh wow, I'll have to try that out!

Worked with a jeweller to get the same design as this post (thank you OP!).

1.02 ct lab diamond, size 5 ring, E colour, VS2 clarity, with 0.30 ct total side diamonds.
