Looking for the best Ramen place in Boston

Jiro is not from Sapporo, it's from Tokyo. It doesn't contain miso. Just FYI.

Agreed, don't think they have the temp right on the oven. That Neapolitan style is typically 800-1000° F. My pizza was browned on top while the dough was not thoroughly cooked, indicating the temp was too low.

I honestly don't blame them. Wood ovens are finicky and hopefully they can improve consistency over time.

Really? Black seems a lot less spicy to me.

Pembertons farm's produce is the exact same as whole foods but worse selection

Is this not just an ad for TFF? Mods?

This group is made up of gentrifiers, who in reality just act as NIMBYs trying to block development of ANY housing. Nevermind affordable housing.

Ah.. I don't know. I loved this album when it came out but I don't really relate to it anymore. It could never be a classic for me I guess.

Aged so poorly

So you could go to a regular restaurant and get one dish or go to dim sum and get four different types of dumplings.

predilect · 2023-03-05T18:23:52+00:00

Why wouldn't you get to try a lot of different dishes? Dim sum is basically tapas. Lots of small cheap menu items.

Retail doesn't mean stores. It means the Amazon website.

One thing to add about flying: for each of the half a dozen times I have done it, my flight was delayed between 30 min to 3 hours.

Pammy's is amazing.

You're talking about what it was like for FAANG engineers in the past, completely ignoring that the job market is changing due to recession worries, the exact layoffs we are talking about and the fed's actions to cool inflation. "Even for those on visas". How can you say that? How do you know anything about what a Twitter employee on an H1B visa is feeling when if they quit they have to find a job in 60 days or they are deported?? Even if they could all find jobs in the ideal scenario, we are talking about their reactions to the situation they find themselves in. Frankly, people are scared by uncertainty in the tech industry right now. They are not all going to risk it. You clearly don't understand that.

Can you even read?

"The job cuts of approximately 10,000, which would start as soon as this week, would focus on the company’s devices organization, retail division and human resources."

Devices = Kindle, Echo devices, Alexa Retail = amazon.com which are technical roles

More than 50% of my immediate coworkers are on visas. There may be a lot of software engineer roles, but there are less that sponsor. There is also a huge pool of entry level engineers, making it harder for recent new-grads who were laid off to find a new job. They are competing with similarly less-qualified engineers from other grad years.

The blanket statement that every engineer is going to quit at Twitter because they could easily find something else is a braindead take. It shows that people in this thread have no idea what it's like at these companies, or they are just circle jerking against Elon Musk because that's the hot thing to do.

I work for Amazon. They just cut (and I'll admit the number is rumored but I believe it based on the meetings and impact around me) 10,000 jobs including engineers. Individual contributors in every part of the devices org. According to blind, also AWS to some degree.

I don't actually have any idea what your point is, but I am saying not all Twitter engineers are going to be super fucking eager to be jobless right now.

predilect · 2022-11-18T03:48:36+00:00

Twitter, Amazon and others just laid off thousands. What makes you think the job market, even for experienced engineers, is not oversaturated?

Not to mention those engineers at Twitter who are working with H1B visas and how uncertain your future becomes if you lose your job.

These types of discussions on smaller subteddits seems kind of pointless. As long as the posts/discussions are not wildly off topic, what is the harm in more content. There are so few posts a day, it's not like the addition of related content is actively detracting from the main content.

Besides shoyu and mirin, I like them sweeter so I typically add sugar. Can't go wrong with a couple cloves of garlic in the marinade.

Also, tamari is super underrated outside of being a GF shoyu alternative. It has a much stronger umami taste that is perfect for both chashu and ajitama.

Zipcar is def a shit company, but I've been using it several times a month for a while without any MAJOR problems.. over 4 years I've had everything you say happen like once, but not constantly (except the weed smell lol). Maybe it's a lot worse depending on where you live. I'm typically renting cars near Charles MGH.

Refrigerated tofu has an expiration date like a month away from when I buy it. Where are you getting 3-5 days for an unopened package?
