Articles obviously add information: is it a specific, known house you are going to ( I'm going to the house ) or a non-specific/not previously referred to ( I'm going to a house )? When it's your own house you're go

That's why he said that Git's feature set doesn't go far enough. Most projects need an issue tracker and a tool for discussing proposed changes. These things are out of scope for Git, but since people needed them, they congr

The mmf offering of my bank is covered by the public depositors insurance. It's also more like 1% interest, and other (similarly covered) banks have better rates. Still not a lot, obviously.

I mean, you don't have to figure it out. You can just punch in start and end of your journey into one of several apps that work nationwide, and pay whatever it says. Of course, many people don't have any of the apps, particularl

The milk most people drink is proceeded in facilities that look much the same, because whole batches of it are ruined by a single germ, since it has no immune system either. We also have to pasteurize it. Or we don't, and germs from co

Are you saying you eat tofu made this way? Or are saying you are eating commercially made tofu, but feel better about it because the tofu could also be made in a rustic manner?

I doubt there is much of a discussion to be had here, but at least you could try to get easily verifiable dates right. Global cooling: 1970s https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_cooling Ozone layer depletion: succesf

Your house can act as a thermal battery and draw power to heat or cool it while there is a surplus. You can also have a hot water reservoir as another large thermal battery for showering etc.

Presumably you're talking about the claw grip? Didn't realize that was the new default. Orthopedic specialists, take note.

At least in Germany, and presumably most places in Europe are the same or similar, milk can be labeled organic without the animals ever being grazed. Though apparently they always have access to an outdoor area. Even milk that's specif

While I usually boil tea water, I just remembered I sometimes do cold brew tea (overnight with straight tap water). No gastrointestinal discomfort yet.

The germ thing seems to go back to this 2005 press release by the BfR, which does indeed urge people to use boiling water to kill Salmonella particularly when preparing herbal tea. It doesn't cite any known cases or numbers: https:&#x

It's 8-10% of global emissions, so pretty significant - even a tenth of that is a lot. And relatively little food is wasted during production (though it's the part with the most uncertainty), most food is lost at the end of the ch

That's not really what they said. It's certainly not true for Germany, where 59% of food waste is generated at home, vs. 7% in grocery stores (and production 2%, food processing 15%, restaurants 17%). And it's probably not tr

Totally depends. Mostly on where you are in Germany, and to a degree whether you're willing to call a few different doctors. An acquaintance with a shoulder injury got an appointment with an orthopedic specialist within a week, who rec

Bure is a research project, a model for a real, large-scale, long-term storage site. Which France intends to build there. I'm not sure if they have started? They plan to be finished around 2035-2040, and apparently expect construction

Wait, what? The product (or its shelf, whatever) isn't labeled with the price? Is that common in the US or is it a 7/11 thing? I guess it's communism to make displaying the price a legal requirement. Competition will sort it

Fortunately, hundreds of billions of Lego bricks were sold over the years, many of which survive, making for a very deep secondary market. On average, families only seem to grow wealthier, in terms of the amount of Lego they acquire.
