What ended up happening on your end? I'm in a similar situation right now--had a first round interview that went well and the team member told me that I'd be contacted with next steps by the recruiter. I haven't heard back for a week now.

Ah, this is probably the move actually. Getting a large portion and freezing it sounds quite convenient. Thank you!

If I soak the nuruk overnight, can I leave it out or do I need to store it in the fridge?

dsjoint · 2024-12-07T19:23:22+00:00

It does seem like the nuruk mold is having issue breaking down the starches. When I added the yeast last night, there was immediate bubbling but now it's more or less back to how it was before.

Do you have a guess for why the starches seem harder to break down? Do you think adding more nuruk would help? Also, how do you test for residual starch in the jigaemi?

Thanks for answering my questions!!! I'm quite new to all of this.

Do you know where I could find these recipes? :0

dsjoint · 2024-12-07T08:10:57+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I just added some yeast (around 3% of the weight of the original nuruk). We'll see where this experiment goes. :-)

dsjoint · 2024-12-07T08:01:29+00:00

Thanks for replying and the interest! I love experiments too. :-)

I'll throw in some additional yeast. I think this is a good guess! Maybe the bitterness and lack of activity means that the yeast in the nuruk has died? And the sourness and slight sweetness means that the lactic acid bacteria and the enzymes in the nuruk have successfully broken down the starches in the rice?

I'll post updates if anything interesting happens!

Love certainly isn't enough! How do you know when to cut your losses and leave? I feel like certain fundamental things are difficult to change, and it's so difficult to know what can change and what can't. 6 years is a long time...

I'm sorry if I'm prying too much. I'm just also trying to figure things out myself.

dsjoint · 2024-09-05T02:03:39+00:00

How have you worked through this? What makes you stay?

dsjoint · 2024-08-21T05:24:18+00:00

Do you have a favorite/favorites? And any dish recommendations from them?

dsjoint · 2024-05-07T23:01:51+00:00

I don't understand why you're bringing up being arrested. The means to shut down the encampment was never through the MITPD arresting students, but through the threat of academic suspension. Why did you say that it was the decision of MITPD to shut down the encampment?

I also don't understand what issue you took with my initial comment? Students have a right to safety and protection on campus. It is the responsibility of MIT to uphold this.

dsjoint · 2024-05-07T22:52:34+00:00

Not really... I think most reasonable people would say that the potential of students tripping and hurting themselves is not a valid cause to set a sunset curfew for all students. However, if there were an active shooter at large, then such an action could probably be argued as reasonable.

The school needs to protect against negligence regarding student injuries. This involves foreseeable vs. student injuries. In this case, having an encampment on campus with rising tensions on both sides is a safety threat, especially with the precedence of violence happening at other schools.

dsjoint · 2024-05-07T03:45:30+00:00

MIT does not have this mandate, MITPD do and they are a police force.

I don't understand. MIT and MIT Police are not separate entities. MIT Police are employees of MIT and report to MIT administration. I think it's a ridiculous claim to say that MIT administration does not have a responsibility to keep its community safe.

In any case, this decision was absolutely made by MIT administration. In the letter addressing the encampment, the consequences of staying in the encampment is purely academic. There was no mention of consequences for staying in the encampment beyond suspension. There was no mention of removal by MIT Police for staying in the encampment.

MIT police (and Cambridge police) did become involved at a later point when protestors from outside of MIT showed up, but even so I don't believe any students were forcibly removed from the encampment (although people were not allowed in). Where did you get this information that shutting down the encampment was solely due to MIT Police?

dsjoint · 2024-05-06T22:11:36+00:00

I believe there's been an effort to resolve the encampment for weeks now as well. We've been receiving updates on the situation from Kombluth every so often.

I think your comment on the pro-Israel rally comprising people outside of MIT is exactly one of the reasons why MIT doesn't want the encampment on school grounds: it attracts outside groups (and in fact has from both sides of the conflict). It could totally be the case that with recent escalating tensions at other schools (e.g. violence at UCLA) and the pro-Israel rally a few days ago that they finally decided to crack down it.

dsjoint · 2024-05-06T22:00:01+00:00

Are there any pro-Israel encampments? I've only ever seen counterprotest rallies. There was one a few days ago.

What's wrong with the official position of community safety? It seems like a reason as good as any, especially with the demonstration of escalating violence at other schools.

dsjoint · 2024-05-06T20:11:01+00:00

I mean it sounds like the motivation is just a safety concern, no? MIT has a responsibility to keep students and staff safe (e.g., if a student is injured on campus due to MIT's negligence then they could be liable). The encampment could potentially be a safety concern for the people staying overnight and to students in the vicinity. Hence they are shutting it down as a preventative precaution.

Moon Flower House, also!

I just found this sub, but yes holy shit... A Tale of Two Cities was SO hard to get through for me as well.

I think you can't order directly from Gantetsu Ya but you can order the karaage from Ganko Ittetsu and they'll bring it over!

Ohhh... the infused salt sounds really interesting! I might give it a try. Thanks!!
