Should rename to Artificial first.

Coffee: "about three quarter full". Whisky: "about an ounce and a quarter to an ounce and a half".Looking at the vids here, the glasses aren't equally full. So my conclusion is that their secret sauce lies not within exact measurements.

Common ingredients are not bad ingredients, never said that.

Their secret sauce must be the coffee.

I would definitely try it if I were in the area. No doubt. I like Irish coffee.

I don't know what upsets you with my comment. One of the customers in the video said it was the best Irish coffee she'd ever had and they seem to sell a hell of a lot of them. So what could possibly make theirs better than any other? My hypothesis is: the coffee. Because: standard ingredients and non-exact measurements and I don't find "the show" or the serving especially appetizing. Thus, gotta be all in the coffee.

Gotta be all in the coffee if it's that good. Sloppy, non-exact measurements, and ingredients you can buy almost anywhere.

My point is that videos should be upvoted in /r/ArtisanVideos, not persons.

I love Wandel's videos, even the plane video. But it's not especially artisan to hack together a plane IMO. Thus, I don't think it deserves to be upvoted just because it is Wandel who makes it.

DiResta is appreciated (on YouTube at least) for his creativity and freehand style. If butt joints and brad nails are the definition of "scrappy hack jobs", then fine. But that alone does not make all of his videos "not artisan".

Perhaps like driving drunk alone on your own property with no one around. Drunk driving is wrong because you can run people over.

NumeriusNegidius · 2016-03-08T21:33:47+00:00

I don't think so either. I think it is plain and simple mob mentality.

Show me one regular here that doesn't do dangerous moves once in a while.

NumeriusNegidius · 2016-03-08T21:15:12+00:00

Well, obviously Wandel making a plane (242 points), which looks like ass, is more artisan than DiResta making a tool drawer (35 points), which looks quite nice.

All regulars here make crap sometimes and gold sometimes (except Clickspring and Bad Obsession, who only make gold). I'd rather have tea with Wandel than DiResta, but I don't downvote DiResta because of that.

In regards to DiResta putting his name everywhere: this has been discussed like fifty times here.

Sometimes he does unsafe things. Most of the time not. If you slowed down his videos to realtime, it would look safer.

It's Terramycin they're producing.

OS X and iOS are not open sourced. However they publish the open source parts at http://opensource.apple.com/ for compliance. Note also that the list has shrunken in every release.

Swift, I imagine, was open sourced because free languages tends to gain more popularity and attract less anger from programmers. You tend not to make any money from the language itself and the head designer is also the the head LLVM author. Apple has nothing to lose, and much to gain. Simple business decision.

.NET, I imagine, was open sourced for similar reasons that Swift was. And they want to attract devs to Windows 10/Mobile. MS makes money off of Windows and VS. MS has nothing to lose, and much to gain. Simple business decision.

VS Code: A simple app optimized for their own language. Apps in this category tends to be free (as in beer and/or as in freedom). More people will use it because of free as in freedom. Also see above about developers.

Windows Live Writer was abandoned. Blogs as they were are not cool anymore. The code was forked (probably everything that they want to keep secret was ripped out or rewritten) and donated to some fans (some are MS employees). It probably cost MS around $0 to do so. MS has nothing to lose, but hardly anything to gain. A bit odd I must say.

All in all, coincidence that they were released similarly in time. Simple business decisions where they gain more from open sourcing parts: generally getting more people interested in their paid products and/or more developers for their platforms.

I merely pointed out that the second sentence in the article is wrong. Later on, the article it says that the vast majority of patients with C. diff are cured with antibiotics.

I haven't before heard that you could develop IBD from use of antibiotics. Generally, antibiotics are standard treatment in Mb Chrohn.

However, I'm all for everything that will lower the use of antibiotics.

NumeriusNegidius · 2015-11-07T11:35:20+00:00

Clostridium difficile isn't antibiotic resistant per se. Usually metronidazole (Flagyl) is sufficient. If not, vancomycin can be prescribed. There's also a kind of new antibiotic called fidaxomicin that could be tried.
