It's possible that parent is referring to the mild acidosis that can accompany ketogenic diets or fasting. At some point along the process of using fat, rather than glycogen, for fuel, your body's compensatory mechanisms (bicarbon

Every time I go to a German restaurant that people rave about (but more on the family-style dining side of things,) I'm shocked by how similar it is to the stuff my grandparents (on both sides) used to cook. Meanwhile, when I cook my s

I'd argue that a lot of Chinese food is well-suited to American tastes. Certainly not the Guangdong stuff and the cheap animal parts (looking at you, pig and chicken feet), but almost everything else. At very least, everything about Si

To frame it another way, the work they want to do isn't worthwhile enough to justify paying the people who would be needed to do it.

I don't have a specific answer, but rather a general suggestion: weatherspark is a site with pretty thorough climate data. It shows average high and low temperature and humidity throughout the year, as well as 10/25/75/9

I would refine this to say that teaching is not sufficiently respected as a profession. A large part of this is the low pay. Another part is the top-heavy bureaucracy, and that we take our best teachers and push them out of teaching because

If immigration stopped, we'd have quite a different problem, and one that looks like Japan and China and most of Europe: namely, an ageing population with no end in sight. The welfare state problems would be exacerbated.

What I find interesting about this is the way it contrasts to Russia's use of comment trolls. While Russia uses their trolls to degrade the quality of all internet discourse (tragedy of the commons as a feature?), the US would rather e

To add to this: The law market is a quickly-narrowing pyramid for the top jobs. If you're a top 10% (ish) grad from a top 20 school, you can get a high-paying job with one of the big firms. For 10 or so years you work super long hours

Doesn't Tibet lack a certain penchant for poorly aimed rockets and human shields in a way that detracts from this analogy?

On the first point, can't that be achieved by the municipality which (presumably) also assesses those property taxes? That just seems like an issue of the city needing to not whore themselves out to foreign speculators in the name of g

Possibly a dumb question, but how are they grabbing Bluetooth MAC addresses? My understanding was that you only broadcasted you MAC address in discoverable mode, and that after pairing, MAC addresses are entirely forgone in favor of master-

This is a bizarre position. Do you consider all the prep work to be unimportant. Or are you just saying this for the sake of pointing out a misleading technicality?

Your path leads to lots of problems. Humans are social; our entire adaptability revolves around being able, in times of discomfort or disaster, to use the tools others have spent their time and resources creating. Someone thinking it's

So your first argument is that we should refuse to learn from history? The US has not had any ships stationed in the Philippines since the early 90s. In response to local demand the base there was closed. Granted, parent misspoke of China a

Ahh, my misunderstanding then. I don't know about the C250 in particular, but my inclination is to suspect that it is susceptible to the same type of attack. I believe this because outward-facing wireless has applications that would be

Given the context, though, parent's comment is reasonable. The isolationist drive that would bring iphone manufacturing and all the associated mining back to the US would go hand-in-hand with a very isolationist economy, in which we&#x

Grandparent is asking for help, not offering repayment in the form of a beer. It's certainly not going to happen if the article's author also sees it as a compensatory transaction. Recognizing that the author has taken some time t
