Random thoughts: What’s on your mind lately? Part 2

I made a data analysis project where I try to find insight into food establishment violation patterns and I see if I split Montreal into 20 neighborhoods what neighborhoods have the most and least violations per number of restaurants (that way it doesn't just show the neighborhood with the most restaurants as having the most violations). I wonder why NDG and others would be have so few violations per capita while Griffintown, Little Italy, and others would be around the top. Little Italy was second place. Villeray is in 4th place. I'm surprised Little Italy and Villeray two neighborhoods I've lived in are in the top 4.
I know someone told me there was a huge rat problem in NDG so maybe restaurant owners are extremely careful because of that
This is the random thread so 2 or 3 messages wouldn't pollute it.Maybe you can create another thread so we don't pollute this one
So about the MAPAQ, I remember reading a review to my ex about his favourite crepe place. It said something like: des rats en décomposition ont été trouvés au sous sol
He nearly threw up
He nearly threw up
But I think all the regular, average, restaurants had something at some point, I don't know? I have never been sick from a restaurant, most places are OK, I'm good.
I think that some restaurants keep their kitchen clean and their stock room somewhat clean but there could still be rats, roaches or others walking around in the kitchen. So we don’t get sick but there’s still a risk
I have been doing a data project on this for the past 24 hours and most food establishments in Montreal have never had a health violation. If you want I could show some insights like the repeat violators and other outliers. The data is really interesting.
I have to do more work in my project to differentiate chains and individual establishments so my work isn't finished yet.
Though I wonder how many of those are just not reported - idk how to explain. The same way the number of convictions in a given city isn't representative of the actual number of crimes committed within that city. You feel me? Just because a restaurant didn't get caught/doesn't have official violation records doesnt mean they never had any issue
I agree. I made a fire department data project too and I imagine in terms of tiny fires like people who put the wrong thing in the microwave usually don't get reported though at one place I have worked outside of Montreal we have had 1 or 2 evacuations a year for someone microwaving something they shouldn't have. Any suggestions for a cool Montreal or Quebec data project?
What happens if someone calls 911 because they’re stuck in an elevator and fire fighters come to their rescue? Where does it fall?
I'll have to make a guess based on my graphs. I don't remember elevators being specified.
I hope you haven't been trapped in an elevator though I have a vague memory of you or someone else here mentioning being trapped in an elevator
I know Josephine in Toronto was stuck on the elevator of her building and I’ve heard of someone who was stuck not too long ago
I hope they're ok emotionally. I feel that would be traumatic for some people. Maybe the most relevant visualization of Montreal would be a data visualization of hotels. Like price patterns of SW friendly vs non SW friendly establishments.
