Not sure, i think im the name of science it is important we do extensive experimentation and see if we cant answer this mustery.

@lupyuen
Let me know how the experiment turns out

@lupyuen
One slow cook tip if your going for easy is try subbing farro for barley. It keeps a bit more of its texture when slow cooking and is very similar otherwise to barley. I tend to prefer it when i have a reason to slowcook a starchy grain.

@lupyuen I know from slow cooking barley it wont be bad at all, will definitely work. It will just be a bit softer than ideal is all, but totally doable.

@JackMeinoff if your day trading, sure, by all means add #SHIB to your day trading routine. When someone famous mentions it, buy it, then sell it in a few days, rinse repeat.

But long term it hasnt really outcompeted anything. It reached its inital peak after launch which took about 2 days to hit, and then has trended down ward consistently ever since without rebounding. After 2 weeks it was down to 1/3rd its peak price and since then has continued to fall and now even lower than that. What small recoveries it had it crashes almost immediately after.

Having a good week where it raises a few minor percentage points isnt anything to write home about given its overall trend.

The important thing you need to ask yourself is, what does it have going for it? It literally offers nothing and brings nothing to the table that would suggest it will have future value.

@JackMeinoff

I'm all for altcoins, but #shib is a horrific choice. Ethereum for the near-term, ADA for the long term are your top choice

@lupyuen will probably be delicious... though id personally throw in the grains closer to the end, they might overcook.

@khird

To put it another way, miners do not equate to supply, They equate to the rate of change in the supply, which as kyle said is fixed, but also VERY slow. Removing the miners had no noticeable impact on the overall supply now or into the near future.

@realcaseyrollins

@AmpBenzScientist in 20 years time the world will wonder why the Data Sciences career is overwhelmed with a huge surge of new employees :)

@khird

I wanted to add some details here...

ultimately what the miners are doing are validating transactions. Since China banned the miners but can not ban the actual buying, selling, or transfering of coins the number of transfers per minute remain the same (relatively, this assumes interest int he coin has drastically changed).

So if you cut the number of miners in half, then while you all those miners are now earning twice the reward, they also have to handle twice the number of transactions. Since the capacity of the network went down and this isnt possible the network responds by halving the difficulty to produce the coins.

So yea miners are now getting twice the reward for the same effort in such a scenario. But does that have a significant effect on demand in general? I'd say not, as the qty minted is a very very small percentage of overall supply.

Most of the price change we see in bitcoin isnt really related to the miners or network integrity at all.. its people being scared that china, one of the largest world markets, wont be adopting the tech.

@AmpBenzScientist most people can survive just fine off lower end MM, it is hardly needed for your average EE... but the high end flukes are absolutely giving you features and accuracy that can be critical in some applications. Particularly the true RMS, which is very helpful if you need an even remotely accurate RMS reading.

@js290 FYI, as I pointed out earlier in a thread the levels of fluoride in teas and coffee are significantly higher than it is in public water supplies where fluoride is added.

@AmpBenzScientist I think that is prudent. I will be conducting extensive peer-review myself.

@AmpBenzScientist The high-end fluke I have will be significantly more accurate than the 100$ meter on RMS (cheap meters dont do true RMS) but on other settings the increased accuracy wont matter much. The nice features of the higher end flukes are things like logging and graphing as well as being able to measure inductance and capacitance.

@js290 Indeed, aside from naturally occurring in many foods (like plants, teas and coffees) it is essential for the body. symptoms of fluoride deficiency include tooth decay and osteoporosis. Thankfully if you drink coffee or teas you likely get enough. but I do not so I need to supplement it.

@BillJohnson That man is clearly a visionary!

Nice! I just found fluoride pills to buy online. The fact that I almost never drink tea, coffee, or faucet water means I've been looking for a good source of fluoride in my diet for a while. So kinda glad I found one.

@realcaseyrollins yea, even is a code edit it would be easy I would think, so not sure why they dont.

@realcaseyrollins I was under the impression you could make it the default... that sounds like something that wouldnt be all that hard to hack to be honest.
