#DCCs
Mask up, y'all!
The mechanism seems to be that 1) you still have dormant cancer cells (DCCs) when you're in remission, 2) specific T cells keep DCCs dormant, 3) COVID makes those cells not do their job right, & 4) lets the DCCs become active cancer cells and metastasize.

It’s notable that there isn’t one party supportive of:

Replacing DCCs
Repealing ACCs
Repealing IZs
Upzoning

Nothing to maximize affordability.
Douglas Todd: B.C. Conservatives oppose David Eby’s upzoning mandates
The B.C. Conservatives are markedly different from the NDP, especially on forced higher densities and the autonomy of municipal governments.

Just in case I’m not hitting every single green stereotype today (I absolutely am) I am so excited to read DCCs proposal for the car-free town belt!

Originally they were going to increase taxes on residents, then they shifted heavily to using DCCs, then developers cried foul, and then mayors were trying to figure out an imaginary third option where nobody would yell at them but the new wastewater treatment plants would still get built

Another awesome release from Blender!

A lot of other DCCs could learn from the way Blender does release notes; Blender’s way of doing features breakdown and release notes for new versions is really great.
Blender Foundation and the online developers community proudly present Blender 4.4! 🚀

A massive milestone in stability, with over 700 issues fixed and packed with features. Ready for production.

@jwhiteyvr.bsky.social I’m really curious what happened to parking rates for DCCs, would you know? Subsumed under “cultural” use (lol) maybe?

Self portrait

My timeline is filled with people complaining about Blender being "too hard" and they need AI or they'll never be creative.

Creativity is a skill you grow, not something you're born with. You learn DCCs. Stumbling is ok, because it's your first step to flying

DCCs are a regressive tax on new housing paid by anyone who needs that housing. Cities should stop subsidizing wealthy homeowners low property taxes with these ever increasing fees.

People who have or have had cancer should really, really take steps to avoid viral infections.

Honestly I'm surprised that I continue to be astonished at how stupid DCCs decisions are. Every time they manage to make a decision thats worse than the last decision they made

The carbon footprint of this is against every sustainability practice. Plus the cost to do it is more money down the drain
Demolishing this is criminal & totally unsustainable
After destroying the Viking settlement to build this
And don't expect the replacement housing to be much needed social/affordable
Honestly Dublin City Council seem hellbent on destroying Dublin
The dereliction alone is off the scale

Cutting municipal DCCs in half and bringing back MURB would be the biggest financial moves a government has made on housing since the 1970s. Very good to see those in here.

We’re taking action to build more homes for people in uncertain times. That’s why we introduced legislation to extend instream protection for Metro Van DCCs from 12-24 months.

This means more housing projects can move forward and secure federal $ for Iona water treatment plant.

Regarding DCCs: one of the barriers to building is the high cost of building. Min recognizes that DCCs are high but that local governments need them. Some parts of Canada don’t even have DCCs. Apparently some changes to come in the fall to help address some of this?

Based on the critter of the same name from DCCs “The Chained Coffin” campaign setting.

Using HER2+ breast cancer mouse models, authors found that within days of infection, dormant disseminated cancer cells (DCCs) in the lungs began to proliferate. By 2 weeks? 100–1,000-fold expansion into metastatic lesions. All of it was IL-6 dependent.

But who pays the DCCs now? Total combined DCCs can be more than 100k/unit. Private developers aren't eating those costs, they're just passing them down to new homebuyers

I've updated Retro CRT TV pack to Unreal Engine 5.8. Psst... there are also included formats for other engines and DCCs (blend, fbx, usdz, glb)

it's a little funny. watching the dumb little dance party ending from the previous smurfs movie they did and seeing like. they animate the smurfs dancing with squash and stretch, they're overall very cartoony. they've made this shit look like a masterpiece now

Notable that you encourage business investment, job creation, housing growth, and cut taxes on residential property at the same time.

Pretty much a political slam-dunk.

Also the best path forward to off-ramping both DCCs and ACCs, replaced with alternate muni funding mechanisms through UBCM.

I'm not inherently opposed to this sort of Keynesian cycle-smoothing. But very skeptical when it occurs without the harder work of fixing the market problems (ex. high DCCs & slow permitting). Feels like it's a punt, not a first down.
