More on the misinformation spread by RFK Jr. on Joe Rogan's show. Such false claims about vaccines are responsible for over 200,000 preventable deaths during the Covid pandemic alone. Can't count on Spotify for stopping such misinformation.

"I mean, my god. Ford handed over #OntarioPlace to a private company for
95
YEARS
And we aren’t allowed to see the paperwork. That should be front page. Every damn day."

And candidates Bailao, Saunders & Furey support it.

Reddit CEO:
Apps like Apollo are riding on our coattails.

Reality:
#Reddit is riding on the coattails of its users. Reddit does not create content. Users do.

The welcome for a delegation of African leaders to Kyiv today was a mix of Ukrainian applause… and Russian missiles detonating. Despite this, the delegation stopped in Bucha to pay their respects to the civilians killed during the initial months of the invasion.

Questions about Apple Vision Pro?

A dev who got to try the demo answers your questions in an AMA...

Torn about posting this, supporting Reddit, but want to support the dev here. And certainly a fascinating read.

Reddit CEO:

"If a moderator team unanimously
decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators to keep these spaces open and accessible to users. If there is no consensus, but at least one mod who wants to keep the community going, we will respect their decisions and remove those who no longer want to moderate from the mod team."

This is a strike. Reddit CEO taking hard line, refusing to negotiate.

There an alternative to #Reddit? Please suggest.

A $500M underground parking garage was added to #OntarioPlace redevelopment at request of bidders.

"Its wild that the province could've earmarked $500M towards transit and made that the priority way of getting to this new “destination,” but Doug Ford with his car blinders just can’t imagine any other way."

(Ford appointed, car-centric mayoral candidate Mark Saunders is also one of the decision makers on the project)
