The first graph is a ratio, but both the title and the other two graphs are absolute numbers

I heard the problem was with yeast interacting poorly with their digestion. Please, power of the internet, tell me if I’m wrong!

I do this sooo often. Often times I just write intro stuff to cool ideas that might or might not be connected to what I should write about. I find honing a page much easier than writing it, so I try to write something and recursively make it into what I need.

Ohhh daaaaam!!

Wouldn’t there be other possible plants that would provide the same alkaloid compounds?

Wow, your wife and her brother rock! Congratulations!

A dude approached me letting me know he was the Blue Elf, he was dressed in a childish vibrant flat colors, but nothing too out of the ordinary. He told me he was an artist traveling for an exchange and that he was known for giving away blue puzzle pieces, of which he gave me one. Said goodbye a couple of stops later. He left me utterly confounded. Once home, I looked it up on the Internet and confirmed all his story…

I would particularly look at your cohort, a vague term indicating people you recognize yourself in. Your slightly older cousin, the neighbor, classmates and such definitely have a big influence.

Like a mildly modified version of geisha? Wow!

Our society (with US at the forefront) is built on contradictions. On one hand, capitalism says you don’t deserve anything, you have to earn it. On the other hand, consumerism says you deserve every new gadget, luxury, treat.

I believe both are false: everyone deserves a reasonable standard of living (UBI?), nobody inherently deserves more than that but it should be possible to earn it. And we should acknowledge that earning something is not a matter of moral superiority, but a combination of some effort and some luck.

Old info from the ministry of economics (2010ish) in Italy is that at lest 30% of the economy is black (unreported). The majority of it would be in the south.

A civil war would finish sooner or later… mafia never stops

The historical background is also really interesting: the north conquered the south because the north was having economical problems. So they arrived, plundered all they could and basically left the south almost without government for years. That’s when mafia got its footing. Then there was a century of “nobody cares about the south anyways” politics. Only with democracy the government started caring a bit more, but there is such corruption and collusion that getting rid of mafia is close to impossible.

Ironically, I work a lot with Fourier Transform. Still feels like magic. I even taught it! I’m trying to develop more intuition about it (vs hard knowledge)

Upset people are impossible to deal with. I commend you for even trying!

In the genre, it surrealism is your jam, Welcome to Nightvale.

Additional advice: before starting, think carefully about what is the assumed knowledge of the audience (what are you sure they know already, what you m should you double check on).

For training, explaining something simple to someone that doesn’t know about it is a great first step. Encourage feedback and questions.

Magic!

That explains just a tiny part. There are so many different sounds at the same volume and frequency

Wow! I’m quite annoyed that it was fixed by restoring the previous package while the author had explicitly deleted it. That seems contrary to the laymen interpretation of code ownership

In particular if you look at the long term (even just a couple of years): many homeless just need a little help to start climbing the ladder again. So housing and mental care would allow them to quickly become productive members of society. Prisons just lock them into a circle of poverty.
