Horsemeat is very common in Italy (carne equina). Definitely second the recommendation of horse Bresaola. It was deliciously herbacious, leaner than any other meat I've tried.

Just do it if you're curious. You will need a safe, familiar environment and the company of at least one cool and responsible person who isn't on the trip. A known dose of acid would be the best choice (from a sheet that someone h

CRUD is "generalizable" only in textbook examples and behind your wet ears. Actual implementations vary widely from the truly simple to things with staggering complexity. Attached to each of the letters in the acronym of C.R.U.D.

>I am talking about things being repeated over and over again, far more than just a couple of times. Actually, no, you specifically said "once". But that's OK, this appears to be an emotional issue for you.

Your idealism is so sweet it makes my teeth hurt. There's plenty of work for everyone. No need to call what other people do "trivial" or demean them for not "automating" something after having done it once. FWIW, au

FWIW, software engineering is _RAMPANT_ with people who are very very poor at teaching, mentoring, and even just explaining things. I suspect this is because many practitioners had to learn through hard-knocks and entirely by themselves and

It does not "break" the diffraction limit. The title is inaccurate. The actual paper doesn't say they've broken the diffraction limit. They only achieve a subwavelength focal point. I'll make an attempt to mansplain

I could be totally wrong and I'm going to get downvoted for this but... Regardless of the browser, "private mode" is kind of a misnomer. You're still hitting the websites and unless you're using Tor, this can be eas

Not interested in flamewar at all. My point is that people (the public) don't actually understand the extent and implications of network monitoring, and almost no one is speaking out about it. As an example consider that there are folk

I think that many people accept that there are some forms of monitoring occurring on the networks owned by their institutions. Unfortunately, many folks do not have clear knowledge about exactly what gets monitored and what capabilities the

So? Many great projects start out as excel spreadsheets: someone has a problem, solves it with excel, then goes on to solve other problems with that spreadsheet. People use it and become dependent on it, but over time the thing becomes intr

While companies do sometimes give tests to candidates coming out of college, it is rarely the case that this is more than a crude in-house diagnostics tool that attempts to gauge very narrow job skill-sets or aptitudes. There is no "Ex

There is no single construct or pedagogical technique which is responsible for kids not learning math. In the hands a good teacher 2 column proofs are just fine. Calling them "awful" is a bit hysterical.

The kids I am describing are somewhat lucky for not having "checked out" before progressing beyond fractions. But they're not extraordinary, they're just kids who have been taught competently and who have been motivated

It looks "unpleasant" out of context, but it is important to note that the proof is accompanied by a diagram of the parallelogram and the students who write this proof have been exposed to the reasoning behind the steps. High scho

Disagree. Kids disengage from math for many different reasons. There is no single pattern to it. If it were that simple, it would not have remained an issue since schools were commonplace. Minsky solidly makes the point that when math is ta

Amazon is not doing this for the benefit of homeless folks. They're in it for the cheap labor and tax breaks, which is fine except that the social safety net in the USA is full of holes. No one negotiated to keep homeless shelters open

The java "syntax" doesn't matter. The IDE provides context-sensitive cues as one types so that you don't have the cognitive paper-cut from having to think for even a second if "1m" means "one minute"

Sorry, but imaging a living person with a "hacker" ultrasound scanner is asking for trouble. How can anyone be assured that this thing isn't transmitting too much energy into the tissue being imaged?

meh... Job loss and fatal hemorrhaging of money can happen for a million different reasons. Having a few novice folks on board just "learning the ropes" and making some mistakes along the way isn't going to kill any company,

They've been selling cars since the first roadster in 2008 and only sold ~500 in their first year. They're still "a baby" when it comes to car companies.

A lawsuit for something like this would have been ludicrous. Clearly, the OP was trying to purchase his car through a discount channel which this relatively new company had not completely ironed out. Mistakes happen, people get embarrassed,
