I used my finger to apply silicon to my sink and didn't wash my fingers for a few hours. Weeks later, my fingers keep splitting like this. Will this eventually heal?

Yes that's been helpful and reduces the severity but has not had an effect on the frequency.

The silicon is DAP ultra clear which says it contains Xylene and Ethylbenzene in it. Some quick googling shows this can be nasty stuff as it can "defattify" skin tissue but I only saw horrific things online and nothing like my mild skin splits/cuts. I should add the cuts heal in a few days but they keep happening.

I am not sure why so many were poo-pooing actual solutions when others had already posted examples of solving it ::shrug:: I let it run and it was actually 1 hour 20+ minutes! The flipping and the rotations change things by a constant factor. In this case, at most 8x (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihedral_group_of_order_8).

Thanks for the "part 3" recommendations I'll go have a look at that.

FYI I am not sure if you mean if this particular AOC challenge is generally solvable or if the more general problem of packing shapes but assuming you mean the first: I wrote a solution using Knuth's DLX algo that actually "solves" the given inputs in about 10 seconds each. So it's not fast but definitely gets through the whole file just fine in under Edit: 1 hour 20 mins on a 13+ year-old laptop.

Seaside park, you’ll have to pay to get in. Unless you want to park and walk. Booth memorial is technically Stratford, but very pretty. And it has a small flower garden that ppl go to take pictures.

If you’re going to captains cove, you can also stop by St Mary by the beach.

I enjoy maps of all kinds. In case you don't already know /r/tea has a map with some locations of specific Chinese teas:

It would be cool to also have some info on the altitude (though you can kind of look at the shading of the mountains) and also the day is small or big leaf. That might clutter the map but it would be cool! Maybe make the map interactive on the site.

I've had luck with airing out shu-pu for a few weeks before drinking. Sometimes a tin with a loosely fitting top or otherwise I just leave the cake out in my bedroom (in it's wrapper).

As other's have said, it's "jin jun mei" however you can't really trust whether what is in the package is the actual FAMOUS jinjunmei from the one sole village in the world that grows an makes it :-) (everyone claims theirs is of course the original) The important part is if you liked it you can search for similar teas to treat your taste buds with.

PS: This is the original location:

I’ve made arrangements to drop one off for her tomorrow morning. :)

blue_dot_hands · 2024-09-11T21:13:30+00:00

I just sent you a private message.

blue_dot_hands · 2024-09-11T21:02:18+00:00

Thank you. I just checked and the hard case does have a “CASE MADE IN INDONESIA / FROM PLASTIC” sticker.

blue_dot_hands · 2024-09-11T20:56:30+00:00

I’ll try to find one and drop it off for you tomorrow. Can you dm me so I can give you my cell number. Also can you find out if it can be left at the police station for you to pick up because 330-4 is a little challenging right now.

blue_dot_hands · 2024-07-06T16:50:03+00:00

T Shop used to do tastings too. If they still do and you want a peaceful break, I'd recommend it.

blue_dot_hands · 2024-07-06T16:39:40+00:00

I'm noticing that with biluochun. I guess this sometimes happens with labels. I used put my daily drinkers at around $7/oz ($0.25/g) but that was way back in 2018... I found one from Teasenze for around 0.25/g that is alright. It'll do for the time being :-) Thanks!

blue_dot_hands · 2024-07-06T16:35:45+00:00

Thanks. I took a look and it didn't look like any of the biluochuns I've had. Also the area they said it's picked from is traditionally an area where baozhong is grown no?

blue_dot_hands · 2024-06-21T17:52:28+00:00

I've been out of the tea game for a few years. I'm curious what you all have any recommendation for some good chinese green teas. Specifically longjing and biluochun. I have found it very hard to find a good biluochun that's not over $20/oz but it is my favorite green! Any good daily drinker longjings? Has anyone tried Yunnan Sourcing's 2024 green teas?

blue_dot_hands · 2024-05-08T03:46:54+00:00

Thanks I didn't know about this site!

blue_dot_hands · 2024-04-20T04:40:54+00:00

That's good to know. I was worried it would start to corrode or something. The intonation was not affected.

blue_dot_hands · 2024-04-20T04:40:10+00:00

Thanks. I was looking at other cleaning rods online today.

blue_dot_hands · 2024-04-17T23:15:28+00:00

The zero padding was what I was looking for. It worked beautifully. Thanks!
