About sixteen years ago, I toured the factory of a dairy coöperative in Vermont; they are fairly well-known in New England, and distribute there, but also have had some success further down the east coast of the US. They were talking about their flagship cheddar cheese, and how especially in the midwest, people came to expect cheese to be yellow in color. In New England, they do not add dyes, but when they ship their products elsewhere, they would use carrot juice to give it the more yellow/orange color.

I had wondered how that would affect the taste, but I also thought that it was nice that they did not use artificial dyes. I had not considered the supply chain issue, though; this was a smaller group of independent dairy farmers who came together to make products in order to share costs and to reach a wider market, but being smaller, they probably have an easier time getting things like the yellow-orange dye from carrots. But it also raises the interesting marketing question... there is no reason that cheese needs to be dyed in the first place. People in certain areas became used to it, and then expected it, because of lower-quality cheeses that had been produced there for ages. But to add dyes purposefully to make a food product appealing that otherwise would not be is another level - one wonders with the potential supply-chain issues how long some of those items will last and be popular.

That's a pisser.

It's well documented what happened. It took only a few weeks to abolish democracy. Most people were descent Germans. They were just carried away by the torrent of evil politics. You cannot do anything effective once the wrong people gain power.

It's all about the price. It correlates with availability, but it's not the reason.

Hmm, I somehow know some professors who use Comic Sans. I think it's their way to be funny or to say "don't just judge how things look like, look closely at the conveyed message". One prof even used sounds and funny animations for the slides in his lecture. Many students laughed at him. Many others who were smarter didn't.

Probably you don't need to provide tech support for Linux, because it just works. On Windows it's always "my printer doesn't work" or some random thing that doesn't work anymore after an update.

The headline states that the "World's largest aircraft goes supersonic;" the reality, however, is that the large subsonic aircraft launched a smaller test vehicle which went supersonic and at least "nearly" hit hypersonic speeds.

My expectation is that when you fill the gaps the worst possible outcome for humanity with maximum people suffering and the most evil actions are uncovered.

As I was reading your post, I was thinking of a rotary near me that is very similar, and that has been treacherous even in a car since they changed the lane configuration a few years ago... and then I clicked your link and saw that it was the same one I had in my mind! Especially alarming since the REI right off of it is where I get most of my gear. Glad to know that Google would route over it... I have not biked there yet, but would probably go up Walnut Street; the problem is that then you have to go pretty far north and then drop back south to get there without biking across the rotary (I live south of 95/128).

Try it, when someone posts the article in some forum or social network. It depends on the wording of the law.

Who are better at not indexing a news article that someone posts somewhere online, right?

Well, there is YAML... so what? You know there is also TOML or JSON or XML or INI files. Pick one, which ever you like. Or make your own syntax, but don't complain about trivialities like these.

I mostly play online with female characters. I don't know what you talk about.

I already thought something like this. Trolls prefer to be funny with harmless things that provoke or make people react in ridiculous way so they can laugh even more. Their latest trend is to watch the world getting dumber (see "excellent" finger gesture).
