From what I've heard and seen the quality of metal makes them prone to breaking, and you need skill to take full advantage of the razor sharp edge. I have seen a great video showing katana students cutting bamboo and struggling and the

Japan definitely produced some of the most beautiful looking swords, and they are extremely impressive given the quality of iron they are forged out of, but I don't think any sane person would choose one to take into battle given any o

Getting a good thermometer, pulling it out the right after the breast hits 165F, covering the bird with foil and then letting it rest for 30 minutes was the key to getting a good moist turkey for us as well. We'd over cook it because p

I would imagine the repetition benefits the listening audience since there is a chance they may not hear something or may miss the significance of something the first time it is spoken.

Yes but you shouldn't rely on it and should always be paying attention. We're hoping that the next version of horse should be fully autonomous.

Honestly, I thought I was making a joke based on a typical format used for Zen Koans but now I'm not so sure.

That was my thought. They already give away free games over Prime, if they leverage that they have already given a large number of people stake in their new market place. Plus they own Twitch, I don't believe there is a publisher who i

I like them but for me the biggest advantage is they don't funnel sweat into my ears, at night when I walk I still prefer my regular earbud headphones. The sound quality with bone conductive noticeably worse, and sadly they stopped mak

I suppose things aren't as expensive if you are a casual but I'm still surprised you can get 1k out of a pair of shoes. My mother also runs and is significantly lighter than myself and she gets shin splints if she doesn't cha

Running is a hobby that feels like it should be cheap but gets surprisingly expensive. Two quick pieces of advice to save you from a bit of hurt. 1. Track your miles, shoes need to be replaced every 300-500 and 2. Go get a foot orthotic and

Madoff got 150 years once he was convicted, though you are correct, I probably should have stated that the system is very good at punishing rich people that are CAUGHT swindling other rich people.
