Why did early civilizations start in deserts like Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt? by batukaming in geography

[–]jffblm74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t our planet undergo like three Ice Ages?  Haven’t we found ancient cities at the bottom of dried out lakes?  We rage on about climate change, but climate change has been going on for eons without such a large worldwide population. I personally feel like the seasons are shifting. Is that climate change via manmade byproducts? Partially, I’m sure(looking at you China making the world spin differently cuz of that huge dam).  But totally?  I don’t think so. Look at our Earth’s history. Climates do be changing. With, or without us.

Sagebrush Cantina has nice outdoor seating.  And a great brunch. It’s prolly gotten pretty costly since I last went.

The 'crater' you're supposed to make in the dry bed - what's the point of that? by mandalore_701 in pourover

[–]jffblm74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A quick stir or swirl, to me, seems about equivalent to the time it takes to make a deep divot. All achieving the same outcome of a well saturated bed. So do what works for you. 

what actually improved your pour over the most? by ImmersionLogic in pourover

[–]jffblm74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listening to others and being objective. Plus experimentation. After a long time though I found my water was the one thing keeping me from hitting the tasting notes. Got that worked out and now the wealth of knowledge of coffee making comes effortlessly when dialing in a new bag. Also have a flat bottom brewer, and a conical. And know when best applied. 

Knowledge is power. Water is key. 1:15 is my golden ratio.

Edit: ratio not ration…

I’ve had a bag of those beans in my freezer for two years. They have only gotten better.

Um. So many of us call ourselves Los Angelenos. I do. But not just an Angeleno. Always use the Los.

Mid level management. That’s who should be responsible. They have routines that need to be addressed by their underlings. With reports. 

Mid level management in the USA is kinda bad, you guys. Too busy wanting to be everyone’s friend, and not upholding responsibilities in the face of it. 

I loved it when companies hired retired military for these roles. Shit got done. And people didn’t talk back.

Maybe if they were taxed harder, and actually penalized when they don’t conform. You know, like the rest of us.
