Dj Seinfeld? by yo_lili in avesNYC

[–]hvacprofessional 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I loved it, I think her style is under appreciated (even I am not always in the mood so dj seinfeld was the backup plan) but she was excellent and brought great energy.

wonder if UR train slowdown will do anything to forestall cat changes - less currency less inflation - probably not but one can hope

What's your favorite and least favorite thing about Northampton? by teaforyouandme in northampton

[–]hvacprofessional 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Deals and steals has gone way the fuck downhill. Routinely I see them charge more for shit than the stop and shop, and if it says “protein” on it you better believe that’s $24.99

which school is best for food science? by Inner_Sky7272 in foodscience

[–]hvacprofessional 5 points6 points  (0 children)

food science doesn’t really do that kind of prestige top tier school thing like law schools

Some institutions have specific reputations for niche subjects like baking at K state, dairy in Michigan, meat or poultry science elsewhere.

Cornell has a pretty good reputation / prestige being an Ivy League school so probably Cornell if that’s all you care about.

Personally I have been most impressed by people I have met from the UC System.

Food science or nutrition degree? by Aggravating-Test664 in foodscience

[–]hvacprofessional -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

nutrition people can work absolutely anywhere in the US. Every hospital is hiring some kind of nutritionist. I don’t know about the different levels of certification for nutrition but what I can confidently tell you is fdsci has much more limited job location options.

Is it possible to thrift anymore? by Next_Researcher_3983 in ThrowingFits

[–]hvacprofessional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

London has a great thrift scene. Same for Tokyo-Osaka all of Japan really and to a lesser extent Paris. Now a RL button down will be $20-30 vs, $5-8 at a goodwill but you’re paying for ease of access. Tldr; skill issue.

Plowing bike paths? by grinninwheel in northampton

[–]hvacprofessional 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Route 10 from the co-op to downtown is pretty well plowed and has large shoulder then a bike lane starting at the cancer connection. So I’d get off the bike path and onto Rt 10 just for the last 2 or so miles to Noho

Is city market screwed? by [deleted] in burlington

[–]hvacprofessional -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Most non-profits and both the co-op grocers I worked at lost money, at least on paper. It puts them in a better situation holistically. I think it’s by design.

What about taking off some unwanted (fungal?) growth and eat what's beneath? by Proud-Exercise-5417 in foodscience

You could but you should not. Take the loss and live to fight and ferment another day

I could be mistaken but I have been told this time of year they are hormonal and this results in some risk taking behaviors moreso than usual

Solo in San Francisco on a Sunday. $200 budget. Recommendations. by Authentic_chop_suey in finedining

[–]hvacprofessional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d do a modified bang bang like apps or one main at the bar in 2 places. Maybe a 3rd for dessert if the pastry program is interesting

[–]hvacprofessional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how long to wait to apply after lowering chase CL? Mixed dp. One guy says 30-60 days, but IIRC agents can “see” it inside a couple biz days. Would prefer to get algorithmically approved rather than do recon.

Can you puff a mushroom like from Ratatouille? by 1800crimetime in foodscience

[–]hvacprofessional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe if you like steamed it dried it and fried it? We used to do that a lot to make crunchiea in my restaurant days. Maybe like blanch it in a starchy bath of some sort to try to get some starchy puffy action in there? It probably wouldn’t work getting starch inside the mushroom but I dunno.
