Just switching from "Home" to "Latest" on Twitter is enough to make it tolerable for me (ok, it also helps to carefully prune the accounts you follow).

Sous vide and slow cooking are great, but Maillard browning is also great. So if you're interested in this article you're probably also going to be highly interested in this Kenji Lopez-Alt article: https://www.seriouse

This is similar to something he said in an interview long ago: "I think the ability to ship a product is far more important because someone who’s not very creative can have little bouts of creativity, but someone who’s not very product

It's an artifact of the posting guideline: > If the title contains a gratuitous number or number + adjective, we'd appreciate it if you'd crop it. E.g. translate "10 Ways To Do X" to "How To Do X," and

Jobs also has put money into The Atlantic, Axios, Mother Jones, and ProPublica. None of these are cash cows. So maybe she doesn't care so much about traffic numbers.

If you're interested in stopping the promulgation of snake oil, then the linked article should be catnip for you. It features lying to the FBI, thin DNS evidence, and a coordinated media disinfo campaign.

Because the only reason to do it is to fool the recipient into thinking a human wrote the letter. It's certainly not more readable or efficient than laser-printing Helvetica.

The realclimate.org graph ( https://www.realclimate.org/images/Hansen88_forc.jpg ) shows B as off the chart by 2020, but 1988 is around .2 and 2015 is around 1.45. Extending another 5 years, should be about 1.45 deg C di

Your new chart overlays all ten years for each decade over each other with the same color. This is great for obscuring, but not much else. Is there a reason you don't like the more legible chart I posted? Looking again at your original

Looking at the post you quoted again, in paragraph 2 it says it did include expectation of a volcanic eruption: > Scenario B and C had an ‘El Chichon’ sized volcanic eruption in 1995. EDIT: Looking at the graph once again, he predicted i

This is funny to me, because there's an American movie where Danny DeVito manipulates TV ratings to get his own (worse) shows on the air: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087979/

For some weighting of variety and quality it probably does very well. But yeah, this is best read as a love letter, where some qualities of the beloved are overlooked. Similarly, "if you wake up at dawn in Los Angeles, and you have goo

Yes. But the other thing is debunking rumors is the task they set for themselves. And in these cases, they went for the dopamine hit of writing "FALSE" over the eternally annoying "Unconfirmed".

This reminds me of one I saw shortly after 9/11. The rumor was that bin Laden hated the US because an American woman had made fun of his penis. I believe this even less than the Marilyn Monroe toe story, but the Snopes "debunking&

The story by itself is just a story. The fact that professionals at those respected outlets believed a certain narrative and used the story to promote it is more concerning. It's like realizing the cancer is actually at stage 3.

Eh, NYC taxi service definitely hasn't always been great. During my one visit in 2003, cabbies refused to go anywhere but Manhattan or the airport. And in Manhattan, it was impossible to get a cab. I'm glad to hear it has improved
