What's your answer to people who proclaim things like: a) Ukraine has a right to self-determination, b) Putin has moral agency, c) NATO is necessary to protect states that wish to turn away from Russia, d) What about the wishes of Ukra

In mathematical terms, there's no well-ordering of restaurants despite what reviewers and the food journalism industry would have us believe. So actually different can have value.

Chez Panisse is my favorite famous restaurant for exactly that reason. They're not trying to make things luxurious or amazing or impressive or complicated. It's good quality ingredients cooked simply, the way you would want to eat

You're obviously a single child, if you think the only options are for one person to dominate another and vice versa.

Is there anything there that you wouldn't learn in the process of college-level STEM classes?

Oh that's fascinating, I've only read a seriouseats article that uses a minifridge and fan. But UV sounds like a good idea for doing this, is your setup based on amazingribs or can you recommend another resource to look into?

Like the above comment I also usually get cheap supermarket cuts which tend to be quite thin. The couple times I tried reverse searing a 1/2" supermarket steak, I ended up overcooking. But I might try it again with a lower oven te

I didn't know people could reuse the pellicle. I thought it has bacteria and sometimes molds on it? Because of the fermentation.

Hi, I just saw your reply from 55 days ago on a related COVID topic, and I'm honestly stumped that you would think paraphrasing Vincent Racaniello who literally writes the modern textbook on virology is somehow spreading misinformation

Sure but I'm really pointing out that children play games and that's a prime age to manipulate people's political expectations of the world. Like what toys and cartoons do. In contrast to the workplace software of Google or w

Not that regulators might care but game software shapes how young people conceive of software and IP issues. A company notorious for manipulating IP buying out a massive game company means entire generations of children and families will be

Watch TWiV. If you have undergrad bio, that's perfect audience. I don't always agree with TWiV on their personal views which they make clear are their own opinions on public policy and own choices about day to day activities (an

My problem is that they're studying retention, not mastery. Like how would this work for math or science lecture at the senior or graduate level? In a more radical way I almost think playing a video in any nonlinear, noncontinuous fash

Have you ever experienced racism or do you have friends who have experienced it? Imagine telling your friend what they went through was simply evolution.

But the actual commonsense evidence is that Alpha isn't more transmissive, which makes Vincent right. Alpha, Delta, and every other variant has turned out to be the same when practically speaking as experienced in our actual cities and

What's wrong with the Finder? I don't have any complex requirements beyond an occasional regex file renaming, but I'm curious to know what file manager capabilities Mac users are missing out on.

It seems to be reacting and solving the wrong problem, and won't deter actual malicious attempts.

I've tried that, unfortunately regular iPads are just too small for full-page display of musical notation. Actually right now I just prop up my MacBook Air, but then the keyboard sticks out, and similarly it only displays 1/2 page

Ah I didn't mention, for music purposes a big screen is ideal for reading letter/A4-sized sheets of fine-print music for long periods of time. It's a pretty niche use case, I guess.

I've always desired an iPad Pro for displaying PDFs of piano sheet music while practicing, because it's light enough to not damage the piano stand, and has a high resolution display. But then I realize the iPad Pro is kind of over

That's no justification for the rationale that critique or negative results in general are not paper worth or do not advance science in less short-sighted ways.

The key sentence is the bullshit about a paper not offering mitigation as not helping. Since when is a scientific paper required to do that.

That's a good point; the original experiment is a good story that for many was proof that prejudice exists, but it doesn't mean blind screening is a panacea.

I find it pretty disturbing that tech has this right-wing streak and not only is it a lack of substance or focus, but an inability to consider the argument from her point of view, thus proving her point about prejudice.

I bet there is research showing how racism and discrimination literally tires out the people subjected to it. And now you have people saying they're not allowed to express that.

That's an interesting way to make selection bias sound like "pretty good"; I disagree on the face of it, even if I am open to considering the idea of completely doing away with academia. I don't know and am skeptical, bu

That's all nice in theory, but what's the compelling empirical evidence for corporate science vs academic research? A professor might conversely argue the open nature of scholarship and freedom of inquiry as being essential to bas

Is this a scientific advance or a technological one though? Academia doesn't have the capital like industry or government to implement the latter. In America it's small small groups of young students led by a professor. Not full g
