I like seeing a group evolve and form good friendships.

Reply, 1988

It is a Korean drama where each episode focuses on a different character, all living on the same street in Seoul in 1988. I recommend it to everyone as my favourite show but especially for your preference described above. You feel each character's struggles and successes. The way the show develops the characters through their relationships with their families and friends is outstanding.

Have you seen the proposed Official Community Plan for Burnaby? I would say it could go further at densifying neighourhoods near transit, but its clear that most of the city will become zoned for apartments and townhomes.

This doesn't just address the design bottleneck. Since it is a standard, permitting is super fast to approve. Construction will be quicker since each home will be made of standard components. The hope is that much of the construction can be done off site with a quicker assembly done on site.

Funding may be easier to get if the are able to negotiate with the builder. Say, the original owner gets a new unit + lump sum and the builder gets to sell the other units to pay off the costs of construction.

Ironically, Plexus currently crashes and won't open on GrapheneOS. Both 2.0.3 on F-Droid and 2.0.6 on IzzyOnDroid.

More than a decade later and I still get nightmares about screwing this up, not dropping a course, finding out late, and having to prepare for an exam without ever having attended the lectures.

For the sake of your future sleep, please make sure not to miss this! :P

I tend to avoid stacking primary tags, like shop. I would use shop=sports combined with sports=surf;skate.

The neighbourhood rats ate nearly all my strawberries the last two years so this year I transplanted them into hanging baskets. I see lots of berries growing so I am crossing my fingers we get to eat some this year!

I had contributed before but ultimately I don't find it that useful because the app is incomplete. The concept is valuable and I like the evaluation visualization, but incomplete or incorrect data make it much less useful.

Only the latest "evaluation" of an app is saved. It was very common for me to reopen Sapio only to discover someone had assigned a different evaluation from the one I had given and my evaluation was gone.

The user should be able to add a comment saying which features don't work. Just saying "Some features do not work" is not that helpful. Some users may have tested an app more thoroughly than others and so can provide details about specific parts of the app that do or do not work.

I have relied on completely degoogled android for many years now (first LineageOS and then GrapheneOS) but I almost didn't even try because I didn't know if my apps would work. A database like this would have been very useful at the time. Hopefully it can be made even better.
