For tomato based sauces maybe.  For cream base sauces like Alfredo the quality is more like frozen.  Jarred stuff replaces a lot of the dairy with oils.  Never buy jarred Alfredo - it's too easy to make from scratch.

Peeling is just what you call removing the skin. Names for processes aren’t always directly descriptive

Smashing the cloves with the side of the knife first helps greatly. They get sticky right away and don't move around on the cutting board at all.

Maybe at Chipotle. But a lot of restaurants (especially the chains) use ready made industrial guacamole loaded with preservatives and doesn’t taste nearly as good. If it works for Chipotle today it could be in more places tomorrow. Or maybe in the grocery store next to the coffee grinder, bread slicer, or peanut…

Or that she was brought in as a Jane Doe and her manager finally found her there.

So I wasn't the only one who read the headline 5 times and then started on the article before figuring out what it meant.

Ah, Jurassic Park.

It would be a negative for me.  I like variety so I usually get insanely tiny portions of things so I don't have to waste food or eat more of what I don't like.  Explaining exactly how large of a portion for each thing would be a nightmare.

Hydrogenated oils are out these days because of the limits on trans fat.  A lot of that has been replaced with fully hydrogenated oils and/or palm oil.

Real Estate costs about the same whether it’s being used or not.  If they have long term leases, they're kind of stuck.  If they actually own the real estate they could just sell it.

I never grew up around Dunkin but their donuts are trash. It’s like they just wanted you to chew on something that would make you thirsty for their way oversweetened iced coffee. I have a total of one good donut shop in the area, and surprisingly inexpensive. So I have no reason to think of Dunkin.

What it looks like is that they wanted to do a very nice avocado toast but they were embarrassed so they did something even more embarrassing.  Toast the bread, double the avocado, get rid of the other slice of bread and I would eat that.  I wouldn’t pay $5.79 though.

Definitely JavaScript. And the hardware isn’t running Java either. Arduino running code compiled from C++.

You can give a fictitious name for a product. Microsoft Windows contains no actual Windows. The box says what it is. Just like this says “mozzarella flavored with other natural and artificial flavors” - it’s a horrible practice, and not exactly ethical.  But I think legally defensible.

Look, not every former CEO of Paypal does something like this. Just one so far.

I can’t even imagine how expensive scaling up is. In trying to figure out how much computing power is required to run it at all...this is minimum viability, not scaling for usage. It would require 8x of NVIDIA’s, A100 GPU computing cards, each with 80GB of VRAM. Just those parts alone is over $100k and use a combined…

You’re right except that it's not waste.  It's the only way to keep ink from drying up in the nozzles.  These EcoTank printers do not save enough money on ink to make it worth the extra cost of the printer.  The ink is still too expensive and you're buying the blade and not the razor 

Mostly keep the Redd Baron in check.

The Mississippi isn't fed by the Great Lakes.

If you don’t mind soda a little flat, this is the best way to drink Dr. Pepper on a chilly fall day.
