Stone ground white corn. Very popular in the southern US. Similar to polenta (which is made from yellow corn) but you can prepare it in lots of different ways.

No worries. Still interesting!

Yeah, I think you’re right.

Ok. Have a nice day.

I have no idea what you are trying to say. Batteries have an environmental impact, but so does fracking for natural gas. You have the impact up front making a battery, but charging it with renewables does not have continued environmental impact. But if you use gas, you’re going to have to use an awful lot of it over that time period to offset the clean power you’re able to use when you have a battery. And that gas has a very high environmental impact, continually, over that entire time period.

I didn’t say batteries have NO impact, but they have less impact than continually mining and burning fossil fuels.

You make the batteries once, and the pollution due to production is spread over the 10-15 year lifetime of the battery. During that time gigawatt hours of clean power sloshes in and out of them. This in contrast to having to produce enough gas to make all of those gigawatt hours once, then throw the gas away as co2 and get more, along with the attendant pollution.

You’d think they of all people would understand the concept of data leakage.

34% is 155% of 22%, so an even bigger increase!

Full self crashing

No, the question is why not?

Light emitting diode -> smoke emitting diode -> flame emitting diode

You are eaten by a grue

CopyMeThat https://apps.apple.com/us/app/copy-me-that-recipe-manager/id956800243 is great. Give it the url, it extracts the recipe. It not only gets rid of the ads, but also the obligatory family history of how the recipe was brought by Nana from the old country, followed by a tedious retelling of a touching story about her. And optionally saves it to your account so you always have it. And there’s web access so you can use anywhere it and a safari extension on the Mac.

If you thought that making this comment was a good idea, you may be too misogynistic for life.

“We spent 3 years exploring whether spending the engineering effort to make it work the way we wanted on Android would end up making us more money in the long run, and decided it wouldn’t. Because we are a business, and that’s literally how we make every decision.”

$99/year is a lot of you’re just doing it to side load. If you’re using all the tools available, it’s not that much.

So many good shows. All of these, but also: Slow Horses, Bad Sisters, Schmigadoon, and Shrinking.

I’m not sure people from the Siri team are going to be in high demand.

So… CEOs will cause job cuts in 2024, and have decided to use generative AI as an excuse.

IIRC some red states have already floated the idea of not letting people vote for several years after moving there specifically to ensure that Republicans never lose control.
