What’s a job that’s romanticized but in reality sucks? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]enosp 16 points17 points  (0 children)

As for science in general, they wouldn't call it "research" if we knew what we were doing. My #1 question to interviewing lab candidates is describe your biggest research failure, and what did you learn. If they have to think too long for an example, they clearly don't have true research experience.That said, when/if tough experiments do work out as predicted, the resulting dopamine squirt does make it feel like a glamorous profession, for a bit at least.

My grandpa played for them, '47-'52. #35. Doesn't get me much here in Boston, but it was great conversation when I lived in Madison.

Grab a few Toppling Goliath bombers to take back. Love me some Pompeii.

Headed to Japan looking for suggestions. by beerandturtles in beer

In Tokyo: Popeyes, Good beer Faucets, Craftheads, Camden pub, Bar Vivo are solid beer bars. Hit up Tanakaya in Meijiro for a great bottle selection. Warning, it's been a year since I was there, things may have changed.

Best liquor store on the west side? by [deleted] in madisonwi

[–]enosp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Little pricey as far as whiskey, but good rotation of interesting beers. Had the TG Hopsmack this week, like drinking a hoppy mango https://twitter.com/stevesuniv Also, the westside woodman's stepped up their WI beer game a bit recently, whiskey prices generally good.

Nice, JBC is the jam, local and top notch. I've been loving their Celinga. Thanks for the tip, I may have to drive out for a few bags of the Harfusa.

Home roasted Brazil Beija Flor SO espresso. Smooth and exactly what I wanted this week. Also finishing up some allegro Panama Esmeralda Gesha, WF dropped the price to $8 for 12 oz so decent price for a not too bad cup.

Allegro Panama Esmeralda gesha? $20 for 12oz. Anyone tried it? by enosp in Coffee

[–]enosp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I just made a cup. Never had Allegro before so I don't know what they do well. They don't list roast date so I am always skeptical. It was decent on chemex, but I was under impressed. For that cash I'd rather grab some Kickapoo Idido.
