This is brilliant!


Whataboutism doesn't help here and paper ruins the coffee anyway.


Even in case that is true - 1000 uses is about a year at 3 brews a day and my french press is still going strong after 15 years and I fail to see a reason why it wouldn't hold up another 15 years.

Do you have any sources on paper vs metal? It seems highly unlikely to me, that paper filters could be more environmentally friendly.


The paper ones are very reusable. At our current rate, the press itself came with more than a lifetime supply.


I suggest you actually read the article you posted.

"The death was not part of a "fad" for getting high"


This disingenuous argument the author is using should make you question bis other points too, even (especially) those you happen to agree with.


Ok. What else do you think he gets wrong and why? I don't think this argument is disingenuous because if he knew more about that particular cleanup effort he would not have used it as an example. You can't ever know more about at topic than everyone on the internet combined.


Yes. All studies have limitations. You report them and interpret the results accordingly.


My interpretation is the results are about as trustworthy as if they were using shiny hair in Instagram photos as a proxy for vitamin E levels.


My interpretation is that the results aren't very certain.


Science wins again.


Can you please cite and link the relevant part?

I think you are misunderstanding.

In common Lisp you can call a regular function defined with defun as (foo "something"), but if bar is a variable containing a fuction you have to use (funcall bar " something"). I agree that this is weird and confusing.


Isn't that the same thing as using function pointers in C?

You need the * to access the function the variable points to.


No you don't. You call the pointer itself. It points to the first instruction in the function.

It's more like Ruby's method(:foo) and .call().


Sure, this isn't that rare of a thing for languages, but it is increasingly rare to find people who think this is a good idea.


Making all vaccine testing data and study details publicly available might be a good start.


I bought a forged iron pan years ago because i got tired oft buying new teflon pans every x months. It's brilliant! Used only for frying (no tomato sauces etc) and with high initial heat it eventually non-sticks better than teflon and e.g. pancakes turn out perfect.


Yeah I dumped my Teflon cookware years ago, with the exception of one nice nonstick baking sheet I have. Cast iron requires a bit of care but it’s really not that hard. Plus if you screw it up, just strip it down and start over!

For acidic foods I use an enameled cast iron Dutch oven, or a SS sauce pot.
