I’ve seen it marketed as “organic caffeine” in some beverages. Organic coffee was the base. Bit of an eye roll from me, but hey whatever.

I roast everything myself so I can’t really comment on roasters, but I’d suggest looking for Swiss water processed decaf. Tends to cost more… but I think there’s an associated prestige that makes people care more about the bean quality if y

Preparation of a dish, varietals, and many other things (such as setting, accompaniments, etc) can impact taste. Just because you don’t like something one time doesn’t mean you wouldn’t in the future. You’d miss out on many great experience

It’s possible, but very difficult. The problem isn’t really the removal of compounds, as far as I can tell, but moreso the change to the bean composition itself. Because the porosity increases so much roasting the decaf beans is much more d

TDP is mostly meaningless between manufacturers. You can (usually) compare TDP within a manufacturer but even then it’s a bit dicey across generations.

$185 puts that cost $7.30 mean they are considered ITM if CRWD drops below $184.27, assuming there's no cost to trade and the $7.30 refers to a single options contract (worth 100 shares). There is likely some (or a lot) extrensic value

There's 0 electronics in it. It should be fully water resistant, unless somehow there's an opportunity for the mechanical function on the scroll wheel portion to rust or something.

You have it backwards. If you have a single receptacle on a branch circuit then the OCPD (breaker) must be sized at or under the receptacle. I.e., a 50 amp outlet can be backed with a 50 amp breaker or anything smaller. You could even have

I’m not disputing that you have to derate conductors based on excess temperature according to NEC. I’m saying that no EVSE exists that will pull 37A. It’ll pull either 32A or 40A and needs wiring and a breaker backing it that either is 40 o

The 279 outlet is just replaced by the 279-s00. I don’t think there’s much meaningful difference for Leviton outlets. It’s just similar to residential vs commercial ad you state.

I can assure you this often has nothing to do with torque. The Leviton outlet lists a torque of 40 inch pounds. You can hand tighten much tighter than that relatively easy with a reasonable screw driver. There’s some instances of undertorqu

But, if it supports 40A charging it'll charge at 40 amps unless you back off the charging rate (which nobody does, typically). You'd always assume 40 amps for circuit purposes.

Read any EV forum. Plenty of people with melted Leviton 14-50 outlets, despite having fully secure and tightened wires.

What's your math on this? I don't understand how you're getting to 37A. A 50 amp rated outlet (backed by a 50 amp rated breaker, and wire capable of handling 50 amps) is fully NEC compliant if you run it for 40 amps continuou

Even Tungsten isn't particularly hard to cut. Also truly Tungsten rings are a lot less common. Most of the rings referred to as Tungsten rings are actually Tungsten Carbide. Tungsten Carbide rings, by comparison, is VERY hard to cut.

If you turn your phone off frequently then knowing what the “secret combination” for power off should not be difficult. We’re talking about holding down the power button and one of the volume buttons… it’s not rocket science. You can argue

You sure about that? J-B Weld claims its resistant to a constant temperature of 500F, and 10 mins of 600F. With the heatsinking of the steel body nearby, it'd be quite difficult to melt out the epoxy. Not impossible, mind you, but... t

Worse than that. RCS is silently disabled and other devices don’t fallback to SMS so you just lose messages silently. Way worse.

Likely stronger than welding against drilling. Weld bead is generally pretty easy to drill through. Carbide drill bits you’d need diamond to cut through. Sure you could cut through the JB weld, but you’ll obliterate your drill bits as soon

I'd think for custom MCUs integrated into something like costumes (or jewlery), that you'd look for smaller sizing. No need for a 'DIP' style package. You go castellated designs, or something where you solder wires to th

The problem is that total energy used is never fully accurate so coulomb counting can only be so good. Top and bottom balancing is needed to reset the algorithms, otherwise state of charge is largely a guess especially over time.

Steps are for burning calories. The amount of calories burned by walking for 4 hours is quite high. If you’re looking to lose weight it’s a very useful tool, even if it’s very low effort.
