  Is this a one-off or the beginning of a movement? Probably a one-off. We shall see.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A la Sin City, I love it.

  I experienced a wide array of learning types. Some profs rely on student-led learning from book readings and assignments, some relied on in-person lectures, some worked through examples in class and had similar examples on homework along with challenge problems that extend the examples in new ways, one had us use mathcad to build a model of increasing complexity with each lecture.

  Saying university caters to one type is an absurd reduction. Unless that one type is “learning”.

  Engineering is a skilled trade with a long list of topics that have to be covered. You don’t have to be an engineer, you could do a two year tech school or just DIY and roll your own, prove yourself through your work to get into engineering-like jobs.

  Two things. 1. If you hated it maybe it was the wrong choice, 2. You can walk in the spring commencement if you want to, that’s what I did for grad school.

  You’d be wrong. I expected it by the third line.

  We probably have enough A/B data now to make some inferences yeah? Compare countries with fluoridated water to countries without.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨flouride⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Those are different mechanisms, why can’t they have different concentrations?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What metrics are deoderant companies using to calculate their "72hr protection" numbers?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You have 72 hours to hide in the dark. If they smell you, you die. If you make it, you win a million dollars.

  Good thing I have 72 hour deodorant!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon recommends a cast iron pan⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My biggest complaint is the smoking oil really upsets my air purifier, that stuff can’t be good to breathe in. I only season my pans outside and that is not even annually, only as needed and it is basically never needed.

  After cooking I wipe the pan out with a dry rag and if it is just oily I let it ride. If there’s any crust stuck to the pan I’ll scrape it and wash with hot water in the sink. Dry it with a towel, light spray of avocado oil, wipe it off, put it away.

  I’d like to upgrade my hood over the externally exhausted microwave vent I have, but until then I don’t use them inside in anything hot enough to smoke so we’re not breathing that crap in. Good enough for eggs or browning a sautee but I’m not going to sear meat indoors.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I don't understand why underbaked borderline raw cookies are such a popular trend.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You have your preference, I have mine. An underdone cookie is gooey and melty but still brown around the edges, best of both worlds.

  It’s even better live.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Best razor for tough whiskers⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I really want to try a slant, but my phoenix DOC does a great job and is a bit more clog resistant than other razors I’ve tried. I can’t bear to switch because it is the copper one and it is beautiful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you set up wake up alarm and not miss it ?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My garmin watch has a vibrating alarm that works for me. For about a month I woke up thinking some asshole was spamming text messages, but now I know what it is. I have yet to accidentally turn it off.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does the urge to go to the bathroom increase when we get home?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Availability. You’re more likely to go potty when there’s a toilet, you’re more likely to eat when there’s food, etc.
