That seems a-historical. The way you get the real nazis is by not acting soon enough when they target/vilify/'other' marginalized groups, or attempting to get a foothold in political institutions.

That really isn't how it works. In higher energy interactions you'll do much worse in the older cab, because of the lack of functional crumple zones.

No, I didn't misread - I was just being less accommodating than GP. If those people are confused, they only have themselves to blame.

On pressure cookers: in general they are the most helpful for taking a recipe that you would simmer/braise for many hours and shortening the time. If your meat is coming out dry, you may have cooked too long, but more likely it's

I think the rice cooker is about as good as a generic cheap rice cooker of the north american variety, but not as good as a good japanese/korean/etc. one. Obviously YMMV

There are very few things you can do in a slow cooker without compromises that affect the taste, mostly because of the limited temperature range (mostly they don't get hot enough) and the fact that most of the time you don't want

Stove top pressure cookers generally heat up faster, and certainly can be cooled faster by pouring water over them. They also typically cook a bit faster (because of slightly higher pressure) It's still true that your "15 min coo

"really a problematic characterization"...

by ska 4y ago
The latter point is why you can often do well with physics dropouts (e.g. ABD ph.d students,disillusioned post-docs); good problem solving skills but less hubris. Of course physicists are not the only example of this effect.

Iirc They did something like this for c++ and it wasn’t pretty but I can’t remember details, it may have been mostly because of the unstable ABI.

Was this basically what doomed IronPython also? I remember a conversation ages ago about how you couldn't really get a (common?) lisp running properly, irrc due to limitations in the way CLR modeled classes amongst other things, but FF
