I find their write ups to be fascinating.

Yeah it’s very surprising to me as well. As a life-long resident of one of the states mentioned, having lived in both major cities as well and small-medium towns, I don’t think I’ve experienced this “aggression”

To be pedantic, it’s 100%–(162%)^(1/6)=8.4% per year. Still a great number, until you consider that their wages have been pretty stagnant for years.

Edit:

That may sound like an extreme demand, but workers would point out that wages for veteran dockworkers have increased 11% since the start of the last six-year contract, while inflation has jumped 24% in the same period.

Edit: for the article. The HN comments are much more recent.

Ah so similar to Oreo “crème,” because “cream” is a protected word in the US

Edit: seems I was wrong about the escape mechanism for helium, it seems the primary mechanism is polar wind escape.

Also, hydrogen can also apparently escape from the Earth.

The redefinition of the mole in 2019, as being the amount of substance containing exactly 6.02214076×10^23 particles

Since the 2019 SI redefinition, avogadro’s number is a constant.

Edit: looks like we were both right! I was reading through your link and it seems the work reported by the NIST led to the exact definitions for Avogadro’s number and the Planck constant.

I think this would likely be most troublesome on some of the OG internet users that got a whole freaking /8, /10, or /12 or something like AT&T or universities. Up until very recently, and possibly even to the present, these organizations had such large IPv4 space, that there was no need to do NAT, and each device had a publicly addressable IP.

Other relevant quote from the article:

The scented water is part of the new Baby Dior skincare collection, which also includes a $115 moisturizer for babies and a $95 cleansing foam.

 

With the state of Amazon currently, I can’t tell what is good and what is crap on there anymore. So I wanted to ask you fine people if you had any recommendations on cappuccino mugs. Not super worried about cost, but also don’t want to break the bank for some mugs.

Any recommendations / thoughts appreciated!

 

Hello!

I recently got a new espresso machine (a Breville Barista Express if that helps at all), and I have no idea how to get started picking espresso beans. I think I’d like a milder, darker roast for either lattes / cappuccinos but also good for drinking straight.

Where do I even go about finding a good bag of beans? Are there any recommended sites? Do you just go to your grocery store?

Any other advice for a brand-new first timer?

Any help is greatly appreciated!
