Can confirm, we served this stuff in our short-lived tea shop in New York and it made a huge difference in the quality of the product.

Clotted Cream is possibly England's greatest invention, apart from perhaps the Westminster System of government.

Worked for Amtrak didn't it? Well, "worked" to an extent.

There's a practical concern there which is really relevant with little ones running around: glass breaks easily. A plastic bottle or cup or whatever vessel can fall from a shelf or counter to the floor and be unharmed and not harm any

People die from food poisoning. No one has died from microplastics, so far as we can tell.

Eh, but "rules" only get you so far. There's tons and tons of situations where a human with eyes just needs to make a decision to "make it work." That's where "systems-based" engraving falls apart. It

The biggest problem is so much of music notation's meaning is defined by it's graphical information, not just the content. This is where it differs significantly from code or even text typesetting. At some point, you have to get i

Much more robust engraving support, and, frankly, being actually open source as opposed to owned by a big conglomerate who's gobbling up music companies right and left.

I'm a professional engraver. How much time you got? lol There's about 200-300 "standard" symbols for music notation, but that can balloon to upwards of 2,000 when factoring in all the nooks and crannies of the artform. T

I have two pinball machines in my basement waiting to be fixed up and restored. But I don't have the motivation to do the work, probably because I was never nostalgic for this era, I'm too young. I do find them fascinating from an

This is the same mistake Lawrence Van Dough makes in Richie Rich. He assumes the massive vault must be full of gold bars and diamonds, the wealth of the family. But it's not. It's invested in banks and stocks etc. The money is not

Don't let the machines put you off. They can be very comfortable, and like all things, you get used to having a mask on at night after some adjustment time. There's also settings to adjust the ramp pressure so you can fall asleep

I'm an obese man and had severe sleep apnea. Last year I got a sleep study and started using a BiPAP machine from ResMed. The different was night and day (sorry). Huge improvements to my energy levels and ability to just function durin

MusicXML only works with conventional western notation, but MNX is attempting to expand that significantly. How far they will get with that, I don't know.

I work for Sibelius so I'm heavily involved in this world. MusicXML is a great standard and offered a solid basis for data interchange between music notation programs. But now there's a new group working to build a successor stand
