It's actually laughable how underdeveloped the rules around review are. I understand that some of that is an attempt to protect the refs ability to make decisions on the field, but this kind of thing is exactly the situation where there should be a review of it done without there even being a challenge flag thrown.

For a league generating $13 billion/year in revenue and paying out ~$400 million/year per team, there is a real lack of investment in actually running the games smoothly.

Reading about this is making me feel sick. It's so sad how many people's lives have been negatively affected because of this Masliah's dishonesty. I think people who fake research like this belong in jail.

Sadly I think low key dishonesty is even more prevalent than what this guy did - the way we dole out money encourages researchers in every field to cherry pick data so that they can keep getting funding.

If you really want to take bigger dabs, a rig may be worth considering. In my experience nectar collectors are extremely inefficient. It's also hard to pack enough thermal mass in there to properly vaporize a large hit.

It's like you get to play the main character in a movie - a really good movie. I would agree, it's one of the best games ever!

There are actually 46 species of seahorse, they make up the genus Hippocampus.

This would definitely have gone up on the wall at my college's sexual health and wellness center!

Part of my last job actually was taste testing water. A very small part lol takes about 20 seconds all told from grabbing the cup to filling it and then tasting it a few times to make sure it's good and then recycling the cup.

When they say it doesn't "really" snow, what do they mean? My experience has been that we are getting less snow than before, but still at least a few feet per season. If you look back at historical records, the difference in snowfall hasn't been so dramatic.

Crypts are infamous for their initial melting and slow growing. If I were you I would leave it another couple of weeks at least. It might be smart to gently clear away any decomposing debris.

Must be a big tank! Is it hard to grow plants with that kind of fish?

Looking good!

I imagine making this must have been a meditative process

A good cookie, green car, gas chromatograph, amongst other things. What comes to mind first for you?
