MAGOG, certainly.

Magazines were so flush with cash that Vonnegut was paid $750 for his first story. That's unadjusted for inflation. I'm no expert, but I think a first time author getting $750 from a magazine would be doing pretty well these days. He saw that market fall apart within his lifetime, and blamed it on th audience moving to TV, for what it's worth.

There's an anki deck built from the jeopardy archive with 400,000 questions, so I'm studying trivia that way. I enjoy trivia.

It'd have to be much more distributed in its ability to react, like octopuses arms being semi autonomous. They'll continue to pass objects towards the body even after being severed.

Or consider the humongous fungus: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armillaria_ostoyae

I am absolutely seeing mission impossible in theaters next month because their screens and speakers are better.

If I could go back in time and shoot 2 painters, well the second one would be Monet, whose damn water lilies started us down this awful path.

There's also nothing timed in balatro, so there's no need for the next game to be _now_.

My friend Joe from the Anime Sickos podcast talked Ballionaire up a lot and I'm looking forward to playing it, which would happen sooner if it were available on switch. Congrats on your success!

It was featured on an episode of Dave Chang's recipe club podcast and it is really damn good. Forget fancy stuffing, this is what you want.

I have my notes somewhere but I think I did this in an 85C bath for an hour or something, then put it in a 13x9 in a hot oven with the turkey breast on top of it. I asked Dave on cooking issues for time and temp right before Thanksgiving last year and those about the direction he gave me.

The Parker house rolls are also really good, which is a shame because I already have a family recipe for dinner rolls and I'll have a revolt if I change it, and Dave's are easier.

Yep! You'll need to buy half the spice shop, but it is really good. It's not quite as bitter and notably more vegetal, but it really hits the spot, especially in a spritz.

The Zero book from the Aviary is a lot more cookable than their original book, not as cookable as the summer or holiday books. The Campari replacement is really good, I've had less luck with the other liquor replacements.

There's a drink in there called the bramblin man that is probably my all time favorite N/A cocktail

I also do the Paulina Noah's Ark, and it's a great move for a summer bbq, sending out one variety of sausage at a time and letting people try all that sound interesting.

Chicken breast is my favorite use for SV. I don't eat a lot of it, but my wife loves chicken salad, and it's nice for a green salad as well. Eating chicken breast that isn't dessicated is transformative. There's other ways to get there, but boy is SV easy.

Other assorted uses: pasteurizing eggs for cocktails, for the squeamish or immunocompromised; making N/A liquor replacements, in particular the Aviary's Campari replacer; Dave Arnold's mom's stuffing; not owning a smoker

Very old Americans at least still do this as well. My 100 year old grandma insists that using the wife's first name is only appropriate when the husband is deceased.

My wife has a 100 year old grandfather and he until recently followed the rule as well. His last letter he addressed to my wife specifically using her own first name. This was a strange way to learn of my own death.

Can you tell us more about how they were kicked out? Are there other groups that have been kicked out?

How did SBF manage to be the #2 Democratic donor in 2022 without accruing any political power?

Why is this true of Zuck but was not true of SBF?

Your second link seems to be fabricated. I'd guess it's an invention of AI. A survey of 100,000 people is extremely large, and would be quite expensive to administer, and its source as given as "PoliticsVideoChannel", a twitter account with 200,000 followers. There's no link to the survey. My guess is, if it's based on anything, the Twitter account ran a poll which got 100,000 votes. That's quite different than a survey of 100,000 New Yorkers.

The social media section gives quotes from several accounts that I don't think exist. Like, it's the only result is you search "@JusticeSeekerNYC".

Given you were talking about people being duped by a fake manifesto I am not sure why you'd share this link.

Protestants all find their differences of opinion a big enough deal that they'll break up over it. They're not fighting wars I've doctrinal differences any more, but who in Christendom is these days?

Google search degraded in usefulness before the panda update, when spammers had filled the web with low quality content designed to exploit Google's algorithms. Google improved their search to punish the content farms, and people were happy with that search for many years.

I was always a boring passive investor and reading Money Stuff has made me more boring and more passive. Every day it's stories of people smarter than me getting hosed in ways I wouldn't have thought of

You could be allergic to hops

This article is not great. You can see from a link that somebody else had previously named Sassaman, but there's no discussion of that. No discussion of why Hoback suspects Sassaman (although, probably too early for that). No mention of Hoback pretty convincingly naming Q in QAnon: Into the Storm.

Also it uses "cyberpunk" in place of "cypherpunk" at one point

I think there's a line where AI enthusiasm becomes disdain for human expertise. If you can't be bothered to learn about licenses, what else are you just going to assume chatgpt can figure out for you?

Rush has gotten me in for endoscopy twice this year with two-three months notice.

It took 6 months to get into neurology there, and they rescheduled my 6 month follow-up to be a 14 month follow-up

A traditional native Alaskan dish, for anyone else as curious as I was

Science advances one funeral at a time

One of the lessons you can take from this is that people think in the tools they know even when there's better, simpler tools available.

It wouldn't be hard to get some asphalt into the lab, but if you don't know how to pour asphalt...or swing a hammer, you're gonna haul the tool you know to the asphalt

The states that have banned pornography are highly religious even for America. What makes you think religious groups aren't the major driver here?

I think there's domains where rigorously establishing requirements ahead of time is necessary and creates better outcomes than shipping quickly and iterating. Especially safety-critical domains. If your product can kill someone (either on failure or success), defining expectations, behaviors, and specifications ahead of time is responsible.

I really like this article, about the space shuttle dev teams: https://www.fastcompany.com/28121/they-write-right-stuff

I'm not very well traveled, but I think I've used a pay toilet in every country I've been to other than the US (and the little bit of Canada I've seen) They're illegal in many US cities (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Committee_to_End_Pay_Toilets...), and American taxpayers don't like footing the bill. So we end up with Starbucks and Dunkin as de facto pay toilets, where you have to buy a pastry or drink to take a pee.

I don't really understand why it should be illegal to pay someone for a vital human need
