I can remember at least one incident when someone on the bus from SF to campus was actually watching porn on their laptop. IDK if they were torrenting it at home or at work, but there were many emails about not streaming content on the shuttle bus WiFi.
hydroxyapatite is a mineral like your tooth, that's how it supports remineralization.
It's actually great stuff and works wonders for tooth sensitivity above and beyond fluoride shellac. I also order it from the more civilized world.
BioMin is available in the US and is similar, but I don't find it works better and I don't like that it doesn't have fluoride. (I live in an area without fluoride in the water)
A Santoku or other knife with scalloped sides do well. There are also in fact, cheese knifes, for cutting and serving that are popular for self service cheese boards. Wire is also popular for cutting large block cheeses.
The current recommended cutoff is 45 (well, pre the current US administration). So I think it was a question of we tested this at the time in these high risk age groups and we were still waiting on the results for other cohorts that were less important.
If you have time based billing you can also input that into the system and it's even more effective. For example, if you tell it that electricity is cheap from 9am - 5pm (peak solar) and expensive from 5pm - 9pm (peak residential demand) it will take your trending consumption and decide when your solar production isn't keeping up with foretasted demand and let you charge from the grid to at the cheap rate to make up the shortfall and minimize cost. It even factors in things like grid charging speed and total site usage limits, which are great given my 100amp panel.
> The professional bakers around me who do a dozen cakes a day or whatnot are all pre-made mixes, maybe some small modifications to the mix, and from-scratch frostings. I'm not sure I could even find a local spot with cakes made from scratch - at least in the traditional sense. The spots making 200 cakes a day perhaps, but those are going to look a lot more like the mixes you buy from Sysco or whatnot.
95% of bakeries are using a box mix and a packet of jello pudding. That's the secret.
My standard cookbook is a 1970s edition of the Joy of Cooking, right before fat became evil and was excised from cookbooks. Everything from how to break down a squirrel to a side of beef.
I have no issues cooking from it with modern ingredients because it doesn't fundamentally use things that aren't "base" ingredients or other recipes in it.
In my experience it's always been legacy hardware or industrial automation where it would cost millions to update the equipment / software. Simply limiting the blast radius of those systems and isolating them on the network into their own security zone is always less expensive and thus the perfectly reasonable solution.
Sure, solar panels get wicked hot and are more efficient when cold, so attaching something to scavenge heat from them, bonus hot water and a little electricity are all wins until you factor in the cost of doing so and realize you would get 10x the return on adding a few more panels.
I don't feel anything when using it, but it does do a much better job with hot / cold sensitivity than anything else I have tried on the market. I find it more effective than Biomin or Nano-Hydroxyapatite.
Presumably if you allow monitors for non-weapons uses, the accounting of where the material goes is relatively straightforward. Therefore monitoring could not be allowed, ipso facto, they are doing it for weapons.
Yeah, the US is a backwards economy and clearly isn't successful with all it's rules and that silly Bill Clinton era digital signature law isn't pulling it's weight. It's been solidly eclipsed by Estonian technical superiority.
I would trust a blockchain more than my government. My government has clearly been shown to be vulnerable to a < 51% attack. Blockchains don't change every 4 years and decide habeas corpus no longer applies to me because my skin is the wrong color either.
That doesn't really scale to the 3rd world as a form of identity validation. I'm sure there is more than one way to do it, I'm just saying it's a way to do it.
Signing posts with a hash tied to a thing that might prove you are human instead of a LLM astroturfing might actually be a good value proposition for blockchain.
If my goal was to fall into the earth and kept missing I would be depressed too. Each try it misses by slightly more and it's orbital distance increases. How sad is that?
Also, I like to anthropomorphize inanimate objects because secretly they hate it.
Existing investors can be onboard with the possibility of an exit even if it's less than their investment. From Fidelity's perspective they have a pile of money burned in a fire. Turning the ashes of that pile into what might be a swing for the fences or any type of exit at all is attractive. Also, sometimes good money follows bad to hedge against taking a larger loss on paper and in this case buying favor might get them access to another deal like SpaceX. None of it feels above board, an efficient market in action, or sane from most perspectives.
