It's a tablespoon per serving which isn't that crazy at all. Also Vietnamese fish stock is milder than Thai fish sauce if that's what you're thinking of.

When my grandpa retired from Monsanto chemical back in the 90s, I helped him clean out his office and got a tour of a bunch of stuff. He showed me their Cray, which had its own ded…

Certainly sounds plausible. Most of the time the first thing I do after I log in to a terminal is "cd work." And if I blundered that on a french keyboard at some point it might pop…

A lot of people know the basic rule of thumb that a byte per element gives you a bit more than a 1% false positive rate. But even just thinking about it for half a second from a ba…

I can't give you exact numbers, but this is line with what I'm hearing through the grapevine. Lots of senior managers being converted back to ICs as well. A lot of people are going…

Yeah, this difference occurred to me while traveling in rural Mexico. To play soccer all you need is a ball. So you can go into the poorest villages that have little in the way in …

My friends had a first gen i3. They didn't like the styling but it was super practical for them as a car.

Yes, Ive's style is very recognizable as Dieter Rams design principles and language with brighter colors.

Yeah, if this was coming from say Honda at a sub $100k price I'd think something like "eh, not for me but it's neat Honda is willing to do something kinda fun and odd." But startin…

Nope, Raptor is full flow staged combustion, so both the fuel and oxidizer have dedicated preburners and turbopumps each.

Yeah, I'm just barely old enough to remember flying when you could smoke on planes. It was everywhere. The smell of stale cigarette smoke was in nearly every public space. This was…

I would imagine they lied about having a felony conviction on their job applications, and that for whatever banal reason any background check service they used didn't flag it, or t…

The people I know playing around with it are interested in something that offers very basic SMS style broadcast without any centralized authority or infrastructure. For example her…

We have overwhelming evidence that corporal punishment is harmful in general, and very harmful for kids. As someone that was on the receiving end of that kind of violence due to gr…

Yes, and your comment makes clear you haven't actually read Graeber and mischaracterized his work. Anyhow, replying is clearly past the point of utility here.

> Historically This is not the history, it is a mythology in opposition to the empirical evidence. Which is why you should read Graeber.

Ah I see.

> Unless it's some sort of complete post-scarcity, it has to be understandable in market terms. No, it does not, and that's Graeber's whole point. "Markets" are not some sort of ph…

You understanding is mistaken. Graeber's "everyday communism" is not a market, and his whole larger point is that contorting everything to the lens of markets is simply ahistorical…

> even fruit based fermentations with significantly higher pectin concentrations only produce trace methanol Would using pectinase to break it down first reduce the risk?

Yeah, that's essentially what happened here in Oregon. And the 2nd chapter of it is after the ballot measure passed, the state liquor commission drug its heels for a couple years, …

Please read David Graeber. What you describe is factually not how human society formed.

I'd suggest reading some David Graeber. Viewing everything through the lens of game theory, as if it was some physical law, is very much off the mark.

Dad found her through his church. My impression from talking with her is that this is a relatively new and uncommon concept in the industry, but one that is growing. Another big be…

I'd never thought of it that way, and it's an interesting perspective.
