How effective is telling people that? In what way is it different than what we've been telling people for decades? When would you estimate it will start being effective to tell people to put in the work and discipline? How many more decades?
Or maybe we should do something that works in reality for real groups of people.
For people with addiction problems, they can't. Addicts have this problem where they can't. They're sitting there thinking don't do it, don't do it, don't do it, and then what happens is they go and do the thing. They're unable to do that work and discipline because they are not tall enough.
And both things are true. Both parties do various bad things, and their supporters hide behind the "well the other guy is bad too!" argument. The best candidate is the one who has the lowest expected badness; and yes, their chosen party membership is a valid and at least somewhat-informative prior on badness, depending on your personal badness disutility function.
To be clear here, you were the one who broke the norms of the restaurant. If you had waited to be seated 99% chance of them treating you like you expect to be. As someone who worked in restaurants for years, you would not believe what front of house staff has to deal with from the general public. I find no fault with how they responded.
The parent does mention there was nobody at the front to greet customers. Then nobody who considered fixing the situation.
Do you feel the problem (sorry, "norm") contributed to improve or lower the bottom line of that business? Do you feel this improved or hurt the likelyhood these customers will come back? Do you feel they were the only ones to have run into this problem?
We eat the seeds, not the blade. I would assume by "eating grass" op meant eating the grass blades. Maybe in the future vegans will genetically engineer themselves to chew their cud. That actually sounds like a cool scifi backstory.
Cow (field) corn is nasty shit, but CAFOs still feed it to cows and use antibiotics to keep them from dying from it. Google Image Search "muddy feedlot".
We don't eat or are able to digest the majority of even those crops. Cows can eat alfalfa which is nearly free to grow and provides free fertilizer for the soil for future rotated crops. Not growing alfalfa would mean relying more on fossil fuel derived fertilizer and increase carbon emmissions from farming.
I just want a small truck. I don’t need to haul frequently, but I do enough renovation work and landscaping that a truck bed is a huge quality of life upgrade. Some of us just want a decent, simple beater work truck.
Obviously there are many models of both the Hilux and Tacoma but the greatest size difference between the two in the 4-door double cab configuration is that the Tacoma is 6 cm, or 1.12% longer.
I do not think that an length increase of the width of a single standard playing card is a practical difference.
It is 2.9% wider, that may be noticeable.
The hilux used to be a lot smaller than it is now so maybe people are remembering the hiluxes from 25-30 years ago?
Former chef who still keeps up with friends still in the industry. Everyone I know loves using induction at home, but it hasn’t really hit the professional kitchen yet for a few reasons. 1. Electric service upgrades are not cheap. Running 8+ burners for hours a day takes some beefy infrastructure. 2. Gas is already there and the stove is paid off. Restaurants are really low margin, so splurging on an induction range does not make sense when the gas range you already have running is still working fine. 3. I am not seeing as many manufactures of restaurant grade induction stoves. Chefs beat the shit out of stoves, lots of pan slinging and extremely heavy stock pots moving around. I am not sure how well an induction rangetop would hold up to the abuse.
Where I loved induction burners was for doing random small projects like Sunday brunch omelettes, or a one off dish that needed a sautéed element on pantry shifts. Super easy to set up at a banquet and so much better than the little butane stoves we had when I first started working in kitchens.
THIS, and worse. I'm in SE Michigan (USA), and kinda follow the local business news. For decades there have been occasional stories of businesses failing, or restaurants failing to even launch, because "no, you cannot get that electrical service upgrade here, without paying $millions and waiting for years".
I’d guess that long term costs are also a factor? A gas stove is almost just a properly shaped piece of metal. It needs to be well designed, but it’s essentially just a hole for gas to come out of and a valve. I assume failure rates and maintenance costs are a lot higher on induction stoves just because of their complexity.
I would have to have a really good reason to need to print rock gear instead of buying from a trusted supplier. Life safety gear is one of those things that isn’t worth the risk to screw around with.
sure... but why not? stuff like Silent Partner are cool and super expensive because they aren't produced anymore. you may also agree with the fact that gear is sometimes expensive for what they really are. and i can see no problem in printing a carabiner that's proven to fail at the same rate of a commercial one, or custom nuts for a specific geography! and can't metal 3D printing be used at industry to lower the costs of production, given it's cheaper than more traditional methods?
I started hockey last year. When I started I looked like Bambi learning to walk. Now I am at the point where I can hold my own in a game, I even scored a goal out last game!
Learning to skate is amazing. Once the motions start to “click” and you can start flying around the ice it is so much fun. Wearing full hockey pads makes the learning process a little easier on the body. Falls on the ice hurt!
You can decide what you put in to your body. It just takes work and discipline.
