I’m also on Mastodon as https://hachyderm.io/@BoydStephenSmithJr .
I don’t really like buffalo wings. I know boneless wings are basically just “nuggies”, but I prefer them, especially if things are getting saucy.
A dry spice blend can make for acceptable wings, but I actually still prefer something like a spicy breading and a bigger piece of chicken, if I’m going to have to deal with bones.
But, I will admit that is a good border case, and isn’t quite the sin that shrimp w/ tail covered in cream sauce is.
Anything I can’t eat with my hands, should not be covered in a sauce that I don’t want on my hands.
Fried shrimp with tails = fine. Bone-in chicken legs = fine. Bone-in chicken in biryani = not ordering. Shrimp with tail in pasta = sin against god and crime against humanity.
I also generally prefer a Condorcet Method (ranked choice, single winner) over mixed-member-proportional, but either one would be a massive improvement over our current system.
I’ll take Approval voting, even.
Isn’t 1600 m/s greater than the speed of sound? That sonic boom is gonna mess up the kitchen, if not the hand.
I think the phase change costs of the water content will also be a significant factor that isn’t included.
He read Maus but took the wrong lessons from it?
Maybe some investigative journalist should check with Stormy Daniels?
I do or at least I have in the past. If the caller will answer my Google call screening, I’ll answer or call back.
There’s always been a issue of sample not matching population, and a variety of methods to correct for that. But, I will admit there is some limitations to that, and I don’t quite understand where the limitations are. (I love math, but I failed statistics once, and barely passed the second time. I prefer symbols and proofs and closed forms…)
While that is also my pet name for JD, keep in mind it is aspirational, not historic.
Nope. I don’t know exactly what happened there, but after ABC bought it, Nate was gradually phased out. He found alternative funding.
Sssh, Top Sneaky.
There are still people that distrust government as a general principle AND still believe the GOP is the party of “small government” so they will vote for whatever name is next to the R.
He’s not an idiot. He is funded by Thiel. He has been politically captured by authoritarian capitalism, so I’d be wary of any models he produced that aren’t independently audited for bias.
I think polls are useful, and the monte carlo simulation approach for turning them into a electorial vote probability is good, but there “too much” magic sauce left over for me to trust the outputs from Silver or 538.
Too redundant, just use S-exprs.
(Mostly joking, but in some cases…)
I think Bernie is just being pragmatic. But, that might be giving him too much credit.
I agree she’s better than the only viable alternative.
We really need to replace FPtP and the Electoral College. Approval voting is pretty simple, and would improve both the primaries (if kept) and the final.
Most people never become auto-didacts. Most auto-didacts still benefit from formal training because above average gross performance can mask subtle mistakes until the mistake becomes root cause for a significant error.
Under significant pressure (like a well-written dramatic fiction, but almost never IRL), most doctors will be willing to perform a procedure without formal training, but under normal conditions, they know it is not worth the additional risk.
Some people hate it, including some independent developers. I wouldn’t mind going without it, if there was a Free Software library management alternative. I want something to track what I have installed (because I’ve “lost” things and reinstalled them before) and something that has a decent uninstall.
I also get some benefit from the store integration, but I can understand developers being annoyed at the 30% “steam tax”. I’d gladly purchase using some other method, if I didn’t have to sacrifice library functions from previous paragraph.
infosec.pub is pretty tolerant…
Ribs. I don’t mind saucy ribs. I suppose if you are supposed to use your hands, maybe it’s okay if they get a bit saucy.
