It's completely unnecessary to heat as cautiously as you describe. Even the worst performing induction burner is not going to heat the pan hot enough unless you do it deliberately, or just completely forget it. Also, maybe you do it di

At too high a temperature oil will smoke and burn, leaving toxic components in both the oil and in the air. My point is that the temperature necessary to cause this oil toxicity, is lower than what you need to make Teflon toxic. Teflon be

The question is not the temperature if you forget the pan on the fire, the question is which is worse: High Temperature Teflon, or High Temperature Oil? The answer is that Teflon is safer.

So you replace the Teflon with oil, and now your risk is even higher. What did you accomplish?

This myth needs to die. Teflon is only an issue at temperatures you're just not going to encounter in a kitchen. And if you did encounter such temperature, and you had oil on the pan - well you've poisoned yourself more than the

I don't understand what a graviton is . The article implies that it's something that communicates changes in gravity? Is that correct? How does it communicate the magnitude of the change? By having lots of gravitons? Or does it

Glyphosate is not toxic. But the stuff in the bottle is mixed with adjuvants and surfactants - and those are toxic. So you have to distinguish which thing is being studied if you want to research this product.

It's actually true: Propylene glycol is harmless. Although some use Ethylene glycol, don't drink that.

That's the easy part. The hard part is agreeing what the externality is in the first place! "My study shows Foobar to cause Baz." "No, your study is wrong, my study shows it doesn't." All the easily agreed upon

It's because of Passover: The Seder (main celebratory meal) lasts till midnight and later, and it's a very big deal for children. So they don't want Daylight Savings Time to make it end even later than it already does. It&#x2

Reddit can (and sometimes does) control who can be, and who is a moderator. So your distinction doesn't exist: This is effectively the business Reddit engaged in discrimination. Plus when I read Reddit I'm not interacting with a m

That's just because gravity is also accelerating the accelerometer, and the accelerometer can only measure acceleration relative to the body of the instrument. I've heard this argument: Because gravity is the only force that acts

"is to say that when no force acts on a test particle in curved space, it should move along a geodesic" Every single author who calls gravity not a force, just hand waves right past this: why should the particle move at all? Sure

Spirit has lowered prices, and a suitcase is just $30 at least for the flight I'm thinking about. Even with a suitcase it's still cheaper than a bus.

If you have a Spirit Airlines route near you, flying will actually be cheaper than a bus. For the route I take it's around $30 for the plane, and $70 for the bus. The bus takes around 8 hours, the plane takes around an hour and a half

This is a semi-fake study. They attribute emissions from investments to the person investing, this obviously leads to a lot of double counting. I'm flagging this.
