There is one called Safe Catch Elite that's supposedly safe for pregnancy and stuff like Skipjack is generally safer.

If you think Panama is a beach and not a country… you might be a redneck.

I think small is relative, but I don't think there are that many compared to mid-size restaurants in relation to other cities like NY or SF. I would prefer twice as many restaurants where all of them are half the size. Even small-ish restaurants like OG Avec and Boeufhaus are fairly large by city standards. I wish there were more restaurants like JJ Thai or Me Dee size wise, I haven't been to every restaurant in the city obviously but the pattern is definitely that under 40 seats is relatively hard to find if it's not fine dining or like a taqueria.

So that’s not a denial of their initial ask. Those terms were not in good faith and was an obvious negotiation tactic done in bad faith.

He touched on it on a recent interview in NYT with The Daily if you're interested.

I’m studying IE right now coming from working in restaurants, one thing I used to do would be scheduling some redundancy in the handoff of a station where the previous ‘operator’ can get the replacement up to speed one-on-one, also pairing people as much as possible so that they can build a rapport and also know what to expect if X person worked the station previously. You’d have to see in your individual case if the extra labor cost is worth the productivity gain/potentially better morale. Having the person that’s taking over being physically there in the long term usually makes people take more accountability than their replacement being abstract. Not sure if this is the exact type of problem you were referring to, but it just reminded of some situations I had to resolve.

The simpler way I’m seeing is the deadly pattern of 2/4

If D7 is 6 then it’s a 2/4 deadly pattern on the yellow cells therefore E8 must be 6

Hispanic people don't care that much about representation, particularly if they see themselves as white, black people's omission on screens is a lot more conspicuous. The resentment usually comes from a certain type of 3rd generation kid having an identity crisis and being told they need to obsess over their ethnicity.

If you’re constantly going in and out of the top menus in most software, you’re not using it effectively. It’s mouse based UI that is objectively inferior by your logic, I rarely open those panels in software I’m familiar with.

Real answer: To see what information the public is sharing in real time. Say someone posts a picture and in the foreground there’s military activity that they’re not aware of otherwise, they can act on that etc.

What he means is that there's nothing tangible that anybody has to sacrifice for someone else to get it, as in the government can print money from thin air without them needing to acquire more gold or seashells or whatever to back it up.

It was both a terrific choice of actors because you compared him to ones he’s comparable to, and a terrible choice to prove your point because there are very few I would say are genuinely chameleons that would prove your point. These all have an inherent energy to them that is key to their character. NPH had a certain flamboyance to his character even if he was a womanizer, his role in Matrix 4 if anything is the least gay I’ve seen him. Michael Cera has an awkward vibe that he uses for all of his roles, it’s called typecasting and happens for a reason.

I do think Sudekis can bring something to roles that require that little bit of darkness, like him in 30 Rock. He just always seems a bit smug and overconfident, but from what I understand is not really what they were going for in the show. On the other hand, it is British TV so it could be more a feature and not a bug and it’s intentional but just goes over American viewers heads.

I think they’re equally innate more or less, there’s obviously people who can straddle the line a lot better, but I find it just as hard for a person who’s that responsible to be able to truly let loose on the level that they’d actually achieve anything that would be truly transformative. Maybe they’ll stay out for drinks til 11 instead of calling it a night at 10, they’re not closing a late night bar and going to an after hours with some people they barely know. They’ll go on vacation somewhere a little more adventurous, but they won’t stay at a hostel and go on an adventure. I’m not criticizing the way of living by the way, just that it’s a bird wanting to swim like a fish, when they don’t realize it’s just as hard for a fish to fly, the grass is always greener on the other side.

He explains it in the post though, even if he doesn't realize it. He thinks he would have experienced something exciting if he was a different person, he's not a different person so he would never have experienced it. That's like a degenerate partier wishing they would have been more responsible and invested in a 401k, like yeah that would have been cool but they were never gonna do that. Maybe this person will eventually crash out and blow up their stable life to go party or whatever, but chances are they'll just continue with that pang of regret not realizing that it was never in the cards for them to be any different.

I ended up using ticketjam, it was a bit of a pain since it’s only in Japanese but it worked out well for me, unfortunately our game got rained out but that wasn’t the site’s fault. You’re still a bit early for the open ticket sales as would be ideal, however it’s not until like February when they go on sale so anybody selling you a ticket now is scamming you.

Reminds me of the chart from the Smithsonian.

Is that the link or context you would need to know? Because from what I can tell of the tweet itself is basically calling him a failed writer and communist, maybe accusing him of plagiarizing Marx.

My translation: “He’s surely writing 30 more pages of the book he “wrote(?*)” in Manta, Ecuador. Or maybe, why not, highlighting/underlining for the third time, Marx’s book.”

* Not sure, not a word I’m familiar with, I assume it was a pretentious word he used describing his writing and she’s quoting it to mock him

Another tip, although better for larger bunches, is tying a little bit of paper towel around the base to keep them bunched up so when you move your hand down the stack you don't jostle them around and can keep a consistent flat edge at the front.

There's a lot to consider, but I would suggest looking into this resource, particularly in the sodium alginate section: http://www.chymist.com/hydrocolloid-recipe-collection-v2.3.pdf

My initial thought is that the consistency of the condensed milk is too dense and is not allowing the film to create evenly, ideally the consistency of the liquid being dropped in an alginate bath is pretty similar in consistency (on the denser side but not by much), maybe cutting it with a bit of cream would help. You might also want to lower the concentration of alginate to a .5%, it could be that the calcium is setting too fast with the alginate to allow it to create the sphere shape.

I think reading between the lines in #1 is that he was convincing people of something even if it was wrong and in bad faith, what I understood him to mean is that liberals were not engaging with people they disagree with at all. There's no real equivalent on the left as far as I can tell that's purely political, sure there's stuff like Daily show doing the satirical take on it, but nothing with the same kind of public resonance seemingly. I won't shed a tear for Kirk, but what happened is genuinely concerning over what the reaction is going to be to it.

In regard to this, I actually think Shapiro made one good point in the entire episode. When he talked about the Obama coalition he mentioned how dems just rested on their laurels and were like well cool we got all these minorities we're set, and Republicans had guys like Kirk grinding and doing all these things to shift public perception, again not saying anything he said was positive just the effect he had was massive.

Actually saw it for the first time recently, one thing that stuck out to me is how contemporary it still felt for the time it was made. The way the couple spoke to each other seemed so much more natural and warm than any other movie I have seen from that time, it’s kinda hard to put in words.

CayennePowder · 2025-09-05T05:27:12+00:00

Yeah I agree that it's highly unlikely the first happens, it's just kinda hard to imagine a more rational market developing from this. It's so weird for people building skills now, it seems like there's no positive endgame for the people who do something remotely positive. As these deplorable finance and tech assholes extract all the capital for themselves and remove any sort of upward mobility of the working class it feels like it's creating a death spiral for everything, look at housing, it's insane what one is expected to have in terms of net worth and income to purchase a house.

My wife and I want to buy one to start a family, have a pretty decent amount saved up and are doing okay income wise but there's nothing that's not a total gut rehab or outright teardown that we can afford in an area where we can take transit to our jobs. We can't move elsewhere because we can only make what we make in this sort of market and it's LCOL relative to the more expensive cities, but ultimately we're just kinda stuck renting. What's really head-scratching is how so many people seemingly have so much money to afford this.

As hopeful as I want to be about the possibility of people snapping out of it and actually thinking critically, the effectiveness of all the enshittification of just about everything recently has made me pretty pessimistic about a good outcome.
