I was agreeing with the comment I replied to? that it was strange and out of place for a blog post that was entirely dedicated the tech/CPU to call out something that had nothing to do with it? (and it was a pretty obvious nod to inter

It was on international women's day, so there is no surprise why every dev was a women. What was strange is having a a weird out of place callout about it in a blogpost/article that was entirely dedicated to the tech/cpu.

there is quite a difference between noticing something (and then correctly noting it is international women's day) and making a strange note of it in an article that is entirely about the CPU. It really doesn't have a place there.

I had a friend who put it best once when someone got mad at her for always going hiking/climbing/etc instead of hanging out - “I only have so much free time so if I can spend it doing something I enjoy AND hangout with friends of

There are few things gas is better at the induction, and for most of them there are workarounds. I would argue that the default for hikes and people just shouldn’t be gas. Induction is safer, cleaner, easier to clean, and more precise. As I

For the majority of tasks for the majority of people in NA induction is better. Wok cooking is the only one that it makes tricky (not impossible) and your not doing proper wok cooking on basically any NA home gas cooktops anyway. for that y

By what measure? Induction wins hands down for control, responsiveness, efficiency, and heat output: https://youtu.be/hX2aZUav-54 Doing a super low temp simmer on gas is hard. Double boilers are only something you need with

3 of these have to do with the induction cooktop chosen, not induction. And the other two with the type of cookware. But yes woks are not really compatible with induction, but then they also are not the best with coil or residential gas coo

In what ways does an induction cooktop underperform compared to gas? It dumps more heat into the pan and less waste heat into the room, doesn’t produce any combustion byproducts, can be dialled into a specific temp, including very low simme

I know they went up a little over the last couple years, but they (at least tacomas) hold their price really well, and they are generally solid and will last. Driven Toyotas all my life and 100% recommend them. My only advice is to just cal

I called about a dozen dealers to find an unclaimed one that was already enroute to the dealer. From what I understand you do not go onto “Toyota’s” list you go onto the dealers list, and they will not send you elsewhere, thou a really good

The issue there is not so much the rolling stop but not respect right of way. Personally I think almost all stop signs should be replaced with roundabouts as it better represents how people want to drive and allows for rolling stops but tha

I just got a new car at msrp in Canada so it is possible, a Toyota. However there was no bargaining and was more “call everyone and find the dealer with one coming in soon and grab it”
