Is there anything like this for kbin?

The IARC ruling […] is intended to assess whether something is a potential hazard or not [… and] does not take into account how much of a product a person can safely consume.

From the article. ^^^

This is something people frequently overlook. A substance may be a “possible carcinogen” and also completely benign at levels any sane person would consume.

Bananas also contain carcinogenic material, but eating bananas is still very much a healthy thing to do. There’s a reason banana equivalent dose is a concept, and “the dose makes the poison” is a common refrain in toxicology.

Elden Ring again after taking a break from it for a while. Exploring new areas, it’s fun.

Nutritional yeast is also amazing. Gives it a cheesy flavor, and it’s healthy to boot!

I prefer to airpop it in the microwave and then spritz EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) on afterwards. EVOO is delicious, and unrefined oils like EVOO retain more flavor if you don’t heat them.

So instead of ‘up’ and ‘down’, you have a clickable emoji-menu like list of tags like ‘interesting’, ‘boring’, ‘funny’, ‘WTF!?’, ‘Quality’, ‘Trash’, ‘Educational’, ‘CAT’, etc…

I’m not sure about this. How do you decide which qualities users can rate? How do you ensure those qualities work across instances with different languages / cultures? You’re also taking something which is extremely low effort and making it take significantly more time and effort. I think the simplicity, universality, and low effort of upvote / downvote are all strengths.

I cook Jamie Oliver’s “basic tarka dhal” all the time. It doesn’t take that much time in my experience, and being a basic recipe it lends itself to lots of variations. Highly recommend.

I’ve always felt that pair programming is more useful on early stages of a task, where there is enough doubt about implementation details and discussing them is worth.

Is pair programming the right way to address unknowns around implementation? It seems like a brainstorming / whiteboarding session might be a better fit.

Agreed. Gaming has become a lot more acceptable over time and with younger generations. This is also true for the gender gap in gamers, which factors into the dating scene.
