13 only? I’d like that option all the way to 18. 1) 14 year olds can be harassed or taken advantage of. 2) If I’m legally responsible for their behavior, I want to be nearby.

Please do this in humans. Please actually work.

Look at the name of the community. Your response isn’t really helpful.

I just cant fathom going to a place and think boy I wish there were more X here.

I can. I can’t learn from or have discussions with people who have literally the same life as me. That’s kinda boring.

Is it an American thing?

Yes. Diversity has been drilled into me my entire life. There are news articles and lawsuits about discrimination all the time. IDK about other countries, but, yeah, diversity is a huge thing in the USA.

What I mean about constructing statistics is going to a place and starting counting people hmmm yes there are 95% straight people here and 96% white people here

No.

In my post, I linked to a statistics page from a popular homebrewing community. https://brulosophy.com/2024/05/27/2024-general-homebrewer-survey-results/

This is not representative of the American demographics. It’s largely skewed. I then went to my regular meeting and saw the same thing. I wondered if there’s a specific reason for the difference. I asked here.

Construing statistics about the people around you?

Huh? I don’t understand the question.

And then being displeased about some fluke in the numbers?

Where did I say I was pleased or displeased?

Like what does it matter??

Look at the name of the community you’re participating in.

lol, there is a lot of confusion when I’m researching things or buying parts.

I’m not saying that right-wingers are Nazis or racists,

I am.

Don’t lie that you’re 25. In my experience, there are 2 ways to handle stupid questions you don’t wanna answer.

1. agree and amplify with bullshit. “yeah, 40 and unmarried. I’m so lonely. I scream and cry myself to sleep every night. I drink 5 gallons of vodka just to make it thru a shift.”.
2. change the frame. “why are you so interested in my marital status? Are you looking for someone? I’m flattered but you’re not my type.”.

And it dismisses the time component of self hosting. It’s not going to be zero.

I hate the phrase “missed the mark”

How is a trig proof different than algebra or geometry proof? I’m good with numbers, but I sucked at proofs.

Link didn’t format correctly. Need an open parenthesis in front of the https.

requires ~10 times the amount of crops per calorie compared to just eating the crops directly

Kind of, kind of not. If fed corn, yes. If pasture raised, no. Humans can’t eat grass. Cows convert grass into food.

ACAB, even the cute ones.

Assuming you’re not trolling, flour has variable density depending on how you scoop or squish it. Packed or unpacked brown sugar?

Considering I didn’t think I had it (but everyone else tells me I do and I can see why they’d think that) and I’ve had a pretty decent life (I’m old), I think so. My kid officially does have it, so I guess they got it from me, and I’ll be damn sure they have a good life.

Also, I would wager a tooooon of historical figures had it but people just called them “weird”. I’d bet that a huge chunk of scientists and engineers in days past had it.

I do barbell back squats, I’m at 150+ lbs. Don’t think air squats will help.

Hard disagree. I already buy the store brand. Already buy in largest container with best $/Oz. Already restrict buying certain things unless they’re on sale. Already cook from scratch as much as possible. Next step is buying a damn cow.

I thought this was commonly known, but I keep seeing it all over the place. All CEOs think like this. Customer acquisition is a metric all sales departments use. Is it because he’s saying the quiet part out loud?
