The necessity for any sophisticated packaging is itself a factor for the terminal Nova classification of ultra-processing.

What about cocoa powder (which is fermented and dried and separated at least)? And coffee? Does it matter whether you buy beans and grind them yourself, or offload that grinding to a processor person?

Actually, according to the Nova Wikipedia page, the packaging of potato chips would push them into UPF. The actual, non-edible bag with the slogans and other soothsayings.

Just like other parts of science, that organization can be discussed and tested. It’s the opposite of “we asked the King what foods we can be most proud of”. Linnaeus did this, and allowed himself to be wrong, and I argue his organization a

So rather than apple juice, consider watermelon juice. The nutrition and fiber are unchanged, the volume is close to 1:1. But you can drink more than you can eat.

I don’t get the downvotes, this is a good question. I would prefer that the meat substitute market is allowed unbounded processing; and that the mere addition of nitrates to meat categorizes it into the terminal ultra-processed category.

History shows periods of opaque infighting within a closed circle of security barons. The west did not know Khrushchev was positioned for power until that ring met with Eisenhower for arms talks, and Khrushchev was the one standing next to

9 September is probably where you want to start. Intentional swarm of military drones into NATO. Shahads shot down, no question about a Russian plan to test reactions along the perimeter. Since then, coordinated launches of screens of small

On the topic of what Putin wants , I’m increasingly swayed that domestic politics limit the choices he’s given. I wonder how the same siloviki but a different leader would perform. On the topic of a wide drone attack coinciding with land i

I heard it’s a mix. Suggestible local people on Telegram are coaxed to launch civilian stuff at a time and place. This clouds the sensor data of the true launches. I don’t know if we’ve seen Shahads since 10 September, but note that Shahads

In my experience, interest from sociology promoted it to those writing A/B testing. It’s not that the difference in a degree in applied statistics and a degree in data science demonstrated frequentist versus Bayesian.

Good article. The toxic secret is that a class of these exist, like myristicin in nutmeg. And that nature can alter coumarin into dicoumarol, yet has no obligation to announce it.

In particular, Panorama showed Proud Boys marching after Trump’s speech, when they’d actually left before. The founder of NewsMax says that lawsuit is going nowhere. But this does get the latest Epstein fallout off the front page. Epstein

In another thread, the edits of Trump’s Jan 6 speech by Panorama were called “fake news”. Seems to me that the more-problematic edit was showing the Proud Boys after Trump’s speech, when in fact they left before. But it’s not like Trump i

You and I probably agree that Trump didn’t get to say what he actually wanted to say. I assert those two lines come closest. The attentive watcher might see the cut (two different camera angles) and put in the effort to watch the 50 min.

The topmost graph on Wikipedia is about GDP, and when it comes to children-per-village, you’re absolutely right. But down some is the J graph, which looks like the American graph in the link I posted.
