That’s why they recommend it. For seasoning you want it to burn.

There is plenty to enjoy about vinyl without buying into foolish ideas about fidelity. Nostalgia, the effect, the sense of occasion, the large variety of interesting old recordings, the artwork. Streaming is obviously “better” in any objec

It seems to me that the ability to refuel at home is a good thing for rural drivers. Maybe they don’t buy Teslas, but this is a massive advantage when you don’t live near infrastructure. Autonomy will come last to rural areas, though. Ma

I'm all for letting people live how they want, but suburban planning tends not to account for the true lifetime cost of that mode of living. If we can fix that, then knock yourself out.

This is an under-appreciated thing about Teslas: they are as competent at the software as a tech company, so this crap doesn’t happen. Your five year old vehicle is almost as good as a new one, hardware permitting.

I've got a quince bush in my yard... they smell amazing and taste wonderful cooked, but raw they will glue your mouth shut they are so tannic. I'm as flabbergasted as you to learn that there's a variety you can eat raw!

The same term is all over their actual webpage. I don’t know what it means either but perhaps it’s referring to the process somehow.

This is cowardly. If I’m rich enough by the time my kid is in college I’d consider it a duty to pay full price. I got financial aid and it’s pretty sickening to see people using a program meant for those who can’t go without the help.

When you consider how rich and well-connected the players who stand to lose if Tesla wins, I don’t think it’s at all crazy to suggest that they are using some of that wealth to slow them down. If you happen to have 10 billion hanging around

Tesla’s stock is shorted FAR more than any other company with comparable market cap. 30% of outstanding shares are shorted. It’s bonkers.

At this point is seems more likely we'll get an iPadOS laptop aimed at the non-pro market and macOS will become a pro-only system.

Black markets exist, but they pay a different sort of tax: the muscle and violent losses required to keep their property. Lawful governments do that better, and that’s what taxes pay for. Google and Facebook have access to the legal system

Seems similar to Kambo. South American frog poison.

They are stickier than you think. Especially with shared channels.

It looks great. I wonder about the impact safety after cutting the c pillars.

I’d love for the world to reframe the remote-vs-commute thing. It’s really network-first or not. If you are network first (some kind of tool is your primary and best-organized repository of information) then people can make the trade offs

It is absolutely possible to get all of those benefits while working remotely, provided you have some Tim wine overlap with at least part of your team. You just have to be explicit about it and not rely on the shoulder tap.

The calories thing is wrong in the context of telling people to count them. In practice it is very hard to know exactly how many calories are coming in or going out in real life situations. Even labeled boxed foods are often way off from

Depends why they are vegan. If it’s for environmental or even ethical reasons a small amount of cross-contamination may not be objectionable as long as they personally are not contributing to demand for meat.

It’s more like the general cost of living, especially housing, has risen faster than the price of a restaurant meal.

I was in the neighborhood the weekend it opened and strolled through. Thing that struck me was that there was no seating almost anywhere. People were sitting on the floor and it felt like a weird refugee area.

Lexus usually tops the reliability ratings even above Toyota. That’s why I was surprised.

Out of curiosity, are there any brands which don’t do this? I’m a little dismayed that even Lexus does this.

Oregon and California are already run this way. It sucks. Creates more problems than it solves.

I'm wondering if the fires may have had an impact. We found one during the hazy days that wasn't really moving and nursed it back to health before returning it to the wild after the smoke cleared. I know butterflies have only a

It’s true that military necessity has spurred a lot of things, but it sure would be nice if we had the same cultural agreement around basic research without that.

I think that’s sort of OP’s point. The criticisms that come up may be valid, but that doesn’t mean the whole enterprise is doomed.

Oh yeah I get it. They were in a tough spot. But they still almost went out of their way, it felt like, to screw with the parts of their business that were trying to save them.
