This isn't a particularly high quality study. Eg no Statistical power sample size calculation done beforehand.

The 'fuss' is probably what caused Twitter to change their policy on this. The 'fuss' is why people like you can now search the uncensored results, two days after the censorship was first reported.

Yes I checked. He doesn't appear. Someone with 15 followers appears instead. And Elon Musk. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1eowMi0P84lXom3jAxzJwaDC7gfM... Do you have a screenshot of your results?

I hate the fact that hosts are allowed to cancel at the last minute, completely spoiling your holiday. You can't leave a review to warn other users. It's open to abuse. We've been screwed over by hosts who cancel at the last

I looked randomly into one of these 'alternatives', the Atomic Pi. It seems to be completely useless for my purposes ( https://hackaday.com/2019/06/06/the-atomic-pi-is-it-worth-it... ). I'm start

Thanks. Do you (or anyone else) have experience with these? Do you think an eleven year old be able to get up and running with a Rock Pi 4 Plus Model C, for example?

This is dangerous and wrong. The incidence of SIDS has been reduced greatly by stopping putting newborns to sleep on their stomachs.

Stay civil. This is not an argument against programmers, like other professionals, learning the aspects of the law which are relevant to their job. Why should programming be the one profession where this is not required?

If there are clear boundaries, there would be no need for interpretation. Interpretation is needed to resolve questions that arise because the boundaries are not clear.

‘clear boundaries that can be evaluated and prosecuted when violated.’ Have you ever looked at media law or libel law? It does not have clear boundaries, but journalists are still expected to follow the law. Journalists are not absolved of

Yes of course they need to know the law. Anyone who might potentially break the law during the course of their work needs to know what that law is. ‘Just following orders’ is not a defence. This is very odd special pleading by programmers.

Hold the baby while standing and bouncing. I read that the optimal bounce frequency is between 1 to 2 Hz. This worked for me!

I’ve accidentally bought several books only to find that I already have them sitting on my bookshelf, unread. I think I need to stop buying books.

But how do I maintain the seasoning over Time?
54.
by martingoodson 4y ago
If my seasoning is getting a bit thin I just smear on some oil in a thin layer and heat at high temperature for about 3 minutes and that’s it. I never have any rust spots because I always dry it after use. I don’t find it very high maintena

I think you’re doing it wrong. It’s very easy to renew the seasoning and it doesn’t retain smells.

Carbon steel woks are useless for induction or electric jobs. The sides are so high that they don’t get near to the heat and never season. Then they rust. I which I could find an alternative to non-stick woks. I’ve ordered a steel aluminium

Anyone know how I can replace a non-stick wok? Carbon steel doesn’t work unless you have gas. Induction and electric hobs don’t heat up the sides enough to maintain the seasoning of a wok, which has very high sides. I would rather not use

I use a stainless steel pan for sauces. Sauces start with a base of onions, garlic etc which is not prone to sticking on stainless steel. If I need to fry some fish or steak, I use my cast iron frying pan.
