A ton of competition and local universities are freaking out over the loss of international students money with the federal changes.

Have you tried looking at various operations/analyst type roles in Toronto outside your usual search? You'd probably do decently well in those roles. Even project management.

YouTube has more than 1 video for every human alive on this planet. I can't help but wonder: what is the value of all this?

It's unfortunate that this has to be a bad thing.

Bandcamp was sold off without the unionized employees. If you're doing this to be pro-labour, you can't really support Bandcamp right now.

Yep! The person said that they are starting with salmon because it's a lower barrier to entry. Food manufacturing is a harder thing to start up from scratch with new tech.

I haven't tried it yet, but I met one of the food scientists who work here.

The big thing about what they're doing here is that they're not extruding the product, so you can actually have customized textures in your food that mimick structures and textures in animal protein. Think a slab of steak with marbling vs a hot dog or a hamburger patty.

It's a huge next step towards great meat alternatives. It might not be perfect yet, but that's only a matter of time.
