The key is that you're usually not following the recipe as accurately as you think.

Also, burnt out & liquid in means too hot. Calibrate your oven so you're actually baking at the temps the recipe calls for!

I have a prius prime! Works perfect for my use case. Everyday driving is full battery with maybe a bit of gas. Big long trips require no extra planning or stops.

Not for everyone, and i figure will last until EVs are nice and developed with better infrastructure up where i live.

I thought they defined persistence as literally the length of time an entity exists. There are many ways to persis under their model.

For non biological systems, it's about being in a energetically favorable state for the environment. For example, while many chemicals will form and break down quickly as their environment changes, with form more stable structures that persist through the shifting environments. These structures are selected for as the basis of potentially new reactions and chemicals.

I haven't given chemistry much thought, but the idea holds pretty well for biological systems.

Ultimately, you're right this is totally a thought piece. However, it's great discussion material.

Evo biologist here. These ideas are not really new to the field of evolution, but they are well laid out (if a little dense) & somewhat codified here.

The paper is an interesting read. Dunno if i agree with all of it yet, but it's good to see the case made for thinking about evolution as a process that spans systems come up again.

Thing is, if you need a car you cant afford to not have one. My options are buy a used car or a new car. Used cars are difficult to gauge reliability. And anything less than 5 years old is only ~5k under the price of a new car.

Mf subaru people had the gall to show me 2018 forester with 20k miles on it and be like "$29,000". For reference, a new, 2023 forester with no miles costs $31,000. Insane.

Your choices are currently: buy a reliable used car for the MSRP of a new car and less warranty, buy a very old, unreliable used car for 2x-6x what it was worth 3 years ago, or buy a new car at or above MSRP.

Shits fucked yo.

I wish i could trust AI to do data entry.

Dont think they can, it's a real key for the software, the distributor just gets them bulk and through "grey" channels. There's a whole writup on it.

Regardless i used to full pirate the whole office suite and hadn't had an issue for 20 years, I'll just go back to that if they somehow decide this key is illegitimate

You can still buy liscenses for office. I just bought a key off a shady vendor for $30 and have a fully activated, non subscription office 2022

Post exposure shots should be covered by nearly every insurance. The preexposure ones are not.
