For coffee? Just the bags, or freeze if I'm keeping them around for a long time. Tape over the valve and freeze.

yeah good points! I use an undersink RO system.

You can "trade the news" with penny stocks (this is basically just buying when people first start talking about it then selling when more people are talking about it), but like you say, the liquidity is soooooo low that you have t

I don't think it's technically RO but "Zero Water" is absolutely fine, pretty inexpensive, works well! Not as convenient as a $200 (ish) under the sink setup but way more accessible.

Sorry, didn't mean to come across like that. What I was trying to express is that no amount of technique can make up for the things I mentioned being bad - and they're easy low hanging fruit fixes that don't require much effo

Well, pressure builds when the coffee bed restricts the flow of water. So if you don't have much restriction (really coarse grind) you're not going to build pressure :) so you don't have to actually change any settings to get

Good is totally up to the person's tastes, anyway. Turbo style shots are the end-all-be-all for a lot of people who enjoy espresso. For other people, they hate it, for a multitude of reasons. A pet peeve of mine is when people mention

You're spot on, but this coarser, faster-style shot is called the "turbo shot" and you don't actually have to use less coffee, you can actually use more - just compensate your grind to brew quickly. You will get more con

I roast coffee professionally, and there's just a few things that will make up 98% of your coffee quality, and none of them have to do with technique. And without these no level of technique will ever compensate. 1) Sourcing high quali

well, at least for really odd ones - like the china example - the liquidity is (probably) going to be really low. you need people buying both sides to make money. But for big events/talked about stuff/etc ofc this is not true.

They have to compete against entities who really know what they are doing.

I do think that using graphql will solve a lot of problems for people but it's super surprising how many people absolutely hate it.

Pretty funny! I wonder how much of a premium Google is paying.

Unfortunately the problem isn't just "the internet sucks" it's "the internet sucks, and everyone uses it" - meaning people are not doing stuff offline, and a lot of our lives require us to be online.

I don't think many look at wealth inequality in isolation, it's usually accompanied by how people are starving. E.g. "over 20 people die from malnutrition in the US but we have over 900 billionaire's" - e.g. each bi

$50k would probably still be outrageous, like your car insurance doesn't have that generally.

what happens when you have two projects using different versions of node, etc? isn't that a massive headache? not that it's great to start with, but it does happen, no?

They created a market and they are charging to be on the market. If you're saying "I want to be on the market but by my own rules" that's not a free market effect, it's breaking a contract. If you say "fine, I&

""Sometimes it lets me down, but sometimes it really surprises me," he said." Lol. This is the perfect capture of exec level AI understanding. Amazing.

Claude Code is hilarious because often it'll say stuff that's basically "that's too hard, here's a bandaid fix" and implement it lol

Third party app stores exist, and they work on android.

by roflyear 1y ago
The app store obviously gives value to the app developers. When you put your app on the store you agree to the 30%.

by roflyear 1y ago
That is exactly what happens if they can enforce payments: "you don't get to be on our store if you're bypassing this" But it isn't what is happening if they are staying on the platform's marketplaces and also

The Musk effect is pretty crazy. Or is there another explanation for why x can compete with Google?

Yes, totally. The model will not know about new versions of libraries, features recently deprecated, etc..
