"Eat the skin too you coward"

Totally agree. Also onions are usually plenty big and abundant enough where some "waste" is fine

He probably couldn't explain it well if he didn't know how to code at all imo

Lemme try my favorite way to explain the birthday problem without getting too mathy:

If you take 23 people, that's 253 pairs of people to compare (23 people x22 others to pair them with/2 people per pair). That's a lot of pairs to check and get only unique answers

Not for vacation or something they don't, but it is progressively getting tighter

1554 is one of the GOATs of beer

We do a lot of archipelago (A9O as we call it, cuz it's shorter to write and there's 9 letters between.... Hoping it catches on).

Factorio is a staple in it. Minecraft too!

Sure! The tasting part is complex but to grossly simplify it:

Each site has a bunch of people who are taster verified and have other jobs (rigorous program that takes a while to be part of) and they 1+ taste panel per day on each site which has a mix of new beers, old shelf beers, all the new releases, all from all of the sites, plus other market stuff (competitor products). You don't usually know what you're tasting outside of trainings so you just use a bunch of chemical words to describe the beer (no, you don't say "fruity", you talk about the specific fruit compound like acetaldehyde or ethyl hexonoate).

They only use the data of attributes you're best at, so each taster is like an instrument that they're also Corsa calibrating with spiked samples throughout all of that.

The best part, by far? Free snacks; good ones too. We already had limitless free beer so that doesn't incentivize anyone

Beyond that NBB was dope. Love the people, love the beer, the company actually stands up for what it believes in. Based af, if it was in Europe I'd 100% work for them still. But we did wanna leave the US so....

I live in Europe, but was an expert taste panelist at New Belgium Brewing in the US when I lived there.

Lefthand Milk Stout Nitro is a great beer.

There's a lot of good beer all over the world (okay, much of it anyway). Quality has a LOT more to do with freshness, cleanliness, and lack of dissolved oxygen in the beer. You can also find bad beer most anywhere. Don't let someone making silly blanket statement get ya down.

I will just go ahead and contradict myself by making a blanket statement that the low end of food is just better in most of the EU cuz of how much stricter the rules are. From McDonald's to the grocery store, you kinda can't get "terrible" food.

I mean if you're using a flamethrower to burn down a house you'll also get some termites in the mix

Denmark checking in, it was like $3 USD for 10 eggs yesterday, and Denmark isn't cheap
