  Maybe not ‘good’ per say but it actually does make them civilized. Regardless of motivation, they are being polite/courteous, which is the definition of being civilized

  Well, guess we know what kind of society member you are

  Boiled meat tastes bad because you’re not adding oil/butter. You’re also not applying enough direct heat (plus keeping it too moist) to create the maillard reaction that is needed for a crust to form

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨can you smoke bacteria out of meat boiling it?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The water doesn’t make a difference. What’s killing the bacteria is the heat. The water just changes the method of heat transfer. But as others have already said, killing the bacteria may not necessarily make it safe

  Zelle actually got rid of its app and is now incorporated directly in the banking apps themselves. It’s kind of like a browser extension where it has its own section in the banking app

  The funny thing is, the very first thing engineers learn in almost any class is significant figures and to make sure an answer makes sense in a real life scenario. Obviously not everyone is the same in terms of how they apply things, but engineers are definitely taught not to do stuff like that

  That’s because it’s loss

  Most movie theaters are open Christmas Day in the US as well, not just boxing day. I’ve been to quite a few movies on the 25th. Tons of major films are released Christmas Day because it’s such a high grossing day in the industry

  If you actually watch the documentary they also talk about 2 pedophiles who were on his set at nick and convicted during that time and one pedophile who was convicted from a disney set. It’s lets about Dan schneider specifically (although he does seem to have a lot of unprofessional, sexist, and inappropriate mannerisms) and more about the need to increase protections for the physical and mental well being of child actors as a whole

  Well at least if it was ransomware, the information was still probably safe. Ransomware blocks the company’s access to company files by either locking the system or encrypting the files. It usually remains locked until the company agrees to pay a large fee to unlock it. So they may have lost access to that file, but the information isn’t stolen, it’s just unusable

  Did you use melted or soft butter? Did you refrigerate the dough before baking?

  We would need to know more about the recipe and what you did while baking to know for sure

  Testosterone does increase risk of heart failure so that is certainly part of it.

  Women are also more risk-averse. Risky living = high chance of dying m.economictimes.com/magazines/…/99119402.cms

  It sounds like if you’re trying all of this and it’s still not working, something about the way you’re selling yourself isn’t working. Have you tried changing your resume to better match different job descriptions? Try having someone give you feedback on the way you interview. Are you coming on too strong? Maybe you dont have enough specific examples in your answers or too many specifics and not enough leadership/direction. I would also use LinkedIn if you’re not already

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are American tv shows stuck in Act 2 for their entire runtime between season 1 and final season?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Really great shows have a broader plot premise and are free to build new storylines and character arcs each season. As YoBuckStopsHere said, some great shows build up and grow overtime - think Breaking Bad, Parks and Rec. Both shows start off slower, focus on character building in the earlier seasons. Then they become plot focused later on.

  Other shows have the flexibility to create new story arcs so each season almost stands on its own but they still stay within the larger overarching premise, example - The Great, Game of thrones (although they really gave up at the end)

  I think good shows have a plan for how to get to the end and mediocre shows do as OP described - have a beginning and end planned and not much in the middle. I don’t think all shows are stuck in Act 2, but it does say something that the ones that aren’t stuck there stand out that much more
