Except when you care about the ecosystem, build tools, willingness of the rest of the team to maintain the codebase, etc.--so the language usually matters even if you're not religiously dedicated to one in particular.

Is it your position that you could purchase and possess shells for your main battle tank without uncomfortable inquiries by BATF?

It will take some time yet to unravel what happened, and more importantly, who permitted it to happen that way. Their arms didn't enter into the equation, and frankly it is shocking that violent insurrectionists at the Capitol weren&#

You're describing pretty standard "mission creep." I.e. "if the problem this organization exists to address is fixed, fundraising efforts stop and staff must be fired. But we don't want to fire people, so we must

The core disagreements seem more moralistic and personal security issues rather than corporate pandering. The gun manufacturing industry is small and weakly compared to the real players--healthcare, finance, tech, MIC. While the left love

Because there's no certifying / accrediting body for HIPAA compliance--practices that comply with the law do not constitute a certification process--what you get is a letter from an unaccredited firm, not a certification. As such

Agreed, if one's stance is to prohibit discussion in furtherance of the status quo, that's as political as anything else. Kneeling during the national anthem or trying to stop people from kneeling, same/same.

Happy to continue a cordial discussion, then! When do you treat searing as necessary for food safety? Certainly we don't want to hold food between 38F and 140F for longer than needed, yet there's a lot of latitude in preparation

Yes - and systemic fungal infections are medically serious.

Yes. Searing means fairly high/intense dry heat to produce browning/crusty texture in seconds or minutes. Such as putting a steak on a grill or very hot cast iron pan. On the other hand, bacon cooked in a 300F oven or on low sto

Yes, I know all about the Maillard reaction--been baking and cooking for decades. My point is that searing as a means for "locking in juices" is an old wives' tale. The reverse-sear approach is superior for steaks and roast

> searing to seal the juices inside Searing does not seal anything inside. It does provide a pleasing texture and usually flavor, though. Cooking chicken legs starting in a cold pan produces wonderful results.

I'm perplexed by your reply; I definitely mean (black|carbon) steel and note it is lighter than cast iron. Never a problem making a pan sauce in a black steel pan. Stainless steel or enameled cast iron is my choice for long cooking to

While you can eventually develop a very non-stick surface with cast iron or carbon steel, there's also the option to make a "spanish egg" with a medium amount of hot oil; e.g. https://youtu.be/mL-w_OegewU?t=21

Skip the nonstick pan and get a "black steel" (high carbon) pan instead. Matfer is a good brand but there are others. Fairly inexpensive, can be seasoned like cast iron, but is much lighter and more responsive. Super response o

It looks like we're at an impasse: you believe I lack objective awareness, and I believe you lack the willingness to recognize the nuance of human communication.

It's not as cut-and-dried as you suggest. Individuals--but not broad classes of people--can be excluded based on their behavior. The Nazis likely could be excluded as long as they insisted on wearing Nazi pins/garb, but not mere

That'd be discrimination against a protected class at a place of public accommodation. This is more like dropping a person from club membership due to incompatible views or behaviors.

That doesn't sound like a good-faith argument to me. Is Boeing the government also? AT&T? Did Chrysler become the government during the WW2 supply push?
