Possibly but I think Canada's auto workers are pretty strongly against doing that and there's quite a lot of them so the political parties are unlikely to do something that might cost those jobs. Unless they can work out some kind of deal like what was done with Japanese auto makers to bring some of the work here?

There's a good article about how a few years ago the search division at Google rolled out improvements to search but then the ad division complained that revenue was being impacted because people spent less time looking through search results and thus ended up seeing and clicking fewer ads. The executives came out on the side of the ad division and Google rolled back a bunch of those improvement apparently.

I guess this mostly came out in some court case where a bunch of emails about it were released

Binging with babyish on YouTube tried this not long ago when trying to make cheeseburger pizza or something. It wasn't great

Weirdly though it wasn't remotely close to the right answer so I don't think it was floating point malarkey. I always assumed some defect but I guess we'll never know.now I wish I had kept it so I could have sent it to Matt Parker for his calculator reviews

I bought a cheap scientific calculator for math class. When I tried to multiply .5 by .5 it gave a long irrational number instead of .25. then I had to try to explain to the store clerk why that was wrong before they would accept the return
