@demoormj I highly doubt he would have paid that extra $10,000 for a plane ticket if one had been available at that price, in which case the valuation is neither reasonable nor accurate.

@demoormj Sounds like a public good based on existence value (as one of those Canadians tbh)

I don’t normally do these but I was curious so I checked and…yup

RT @DaniParadis: @APTNNews flew over the Kearl project oilsands today. Today we are on the ground for a community meeting in Fort Chipewyan…

@TheAgentNDN Loom is easy to use, though editing features are limited.

@DrAAlBahrani Thanks for this! Going to share with my (Canadian) intro students who have been asking about the situation.

@PhilTRoberts When I started teaching, a seasoned educ prof told me to have students do something different every ten minutes or so - switching between lecture, groupwork, independent writing, class discussion, etc. 80 min lectures are standard here and I find no break is needed if I do this.

@KatecBowler My favourite blessing from the whole book (and I loved every one).

I love my job for lots of reasons, and one is that I get to read articles like this with my students: Analyzing the Morality of Owning and Suspending Patent Rights for COVID-19 Vaccines in the Light of Catholic Social Teaching

@demoormj Maybe they have recognized the value of social philosophy

@demoormj Yeah fully agree. I think Parkland has some stuff on the empirical side, by the way. But I don't have it at my fingertips.

@demoormj Yeah I think that’s the real question - I saw the same thread yesterday and was trying to figure out how a private, not for profit clinic would work - who owns it, how do the doctors get paid, how do the incentive structures work.

@demoormj I’m not sure that’s true even at the level of theory - there can be issues of asymmetric information when it comes to health care, meaning consumers may not be able to properly assess the quality of care they’re receiving.

@demoormj I should be grading but I am having so much fun with this instead.

@joshualeeharris @demoormj I mean, I kind of admire how it can be so confidently wrong. Just mashing up totally unrelated things (in the architectonic critique one) in a way that sounds totally plausible even though it’s totally incorrect.

@demoormj 🧐

@demoormj Wait it's getting better
