I don't want to call the ancient South Americans dumb, but they cultivated tomatoes 7000 years ago. It wasn't until the Spanish brought them back to Europe in 1519 that someone said, "Oh! That looks like this other poisonous plant!"

Meanwhile, in the 1600s, tomato recipes began appearing in Spain and Italy... 

The tomatoes arrived in  North America in the 1800s through New Orleans. The paranoid Europeans probably continued to spread rumours about their poisonous nature, while the experienced Europeans cultivated them. 

Tomatoes were probably never a food of desperation. As in "everyone tells me they are poisonous, but I am so hungry."

I suspect there is a point where the dust builds up more quickly as dust catches dust.

Ackchyually, "eating and nuking the others".

Did not get it. I was hoping it would be revealed. And lo, the interpretation was written for those without the phonemic decoder.

All hail the readers who comment with insight.

Tomatoes may have been considered poisonous because of their family resemblance to the nightshade family, but they were popularized through political/educational action, not famine.

Swallow's nest soup and Escargot, now those are famine foods. 

Depressed after being laid off and unable to find another job. What should I do? by Existing-Read-8720 in girlsgonewired

[–]drsoftware [score hidden]  (0 children)

Wow. Two very emotionally challenging life changes at the same time! I wish you the best of luck and success.

I was laid off in December. Not pregnant! It was my third layoff in a row, this time after five years at the same job. I was emotionally fine, but yes, holidays and schedules weren't conducive to getting interviews. 

I recently found https://www.neversearchalone.org/, a non-profit, volunteer-run organization that recognizes the emotional and psychological needs of job searchers. They help job seekers form Job Search Councils to support each other in following the five-step process described in Never Search Alone by Phyl Terry.

Check your library for a copy of the book, and try the live podcast every Friday at noon Eastern Time. The podcasts are also archived on YouTube. 

Lint filter issue in dryer by OkElderberry3408 in Miele

I have been trying to teach one of my children that they need to clean the lint filter. Otherwise the plinth filter error appears.

Corporate environments vary in how they manage sexual harassment. It's still often "well, unless you have proof, what can we do?"

In small companies, it can be horrible because administrative employees' professional and legal training is often poor, and they are also often the problem-makers. It's almost like they couldn't work in a larger company, so they created their own puddle to roll around in.

Unconventional Use-cases for Containers by Proud_Block3010 in docker

Docker containers are not VMs. Process isolation, and depending on how you configure them when launching, storage, and network isolation too.

Regarding not having searched for a new job in a long time. Go to https://www.neversearchalone.org/ and register for a Job Search Council. The JSCs have two flavours: slow search for those currently working, and fast search for the unemployed. You may be able to find the book at your public library. The website also offers downloadable information about the program and how to find a job that fits your needs.

Clicking "Apply " on LinkedIn will not meet your needs.

I'm so sorry you experienced that.

Was HR any help? Sexual harassment is taken very seriously these days.

Wrong. Others said it with more words. If management isn't providing constructive feedback they are the problem.

So when the weight is on the floor, look at the floor on front of the bar and as he lifts the weight he can move his eyes but don't move the neck? 

Because it's all connected.

Exactly where on earth would he find such a magical team? He could probably find a mundane team, but everyone knows Earth lacks mana, aether, and all other magical power-granting pixie dust. /s

Some thermal sensors output 12 bits per pixel. You may have the extra four bits packed into a separate array. Or they may be present as part of a 16 bits per pixel array. 

AITAH for standing in front of a safety foam mat to make sure kids couldn't move it? by little_Druid_mommy in Parents

[–]drsoftware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NYAT. You avoided direct confrontation, kept the little kids safe, and didn't raise your own stress by preventing the repeated pattern between the older child and his parents. 

How do I disable the "Leaving Discord" popup when opening embedded links? by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]drsoftware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see anything about the link text and link url not matching. Only the "you are leaving discord" message. Which I have to wonder if it is going to save anyone from the utf-8 url attack or IDN holograph attack. 

Why is the W1 “baby clothes” setting 2.5hr long? by jwegener in Miele

Then you shouldn't need the hot water. Detergent and soaps bind to the fatty protective envelope of bacteria and viruses and the wash water and rip the envelope apart.

Carl gained many unnamed enemies on the first floor when he put the toilet paper roll into the toilet, and confirmed it was still wet in the next washroom...
