eg, separating 40 "red" water molecules from 40 "blue" water molecules has an entropic/free energy cost, but putting all of those molecules alone, surrounded by vacuum would be entropically much more expensive.

A fight between "perfect" and "good enough" I guess?

So, I'll guess that the two colors of dye, mixed together, have a lower freezing point. Not sure how this would happen - probably some sort of interaction energy benefit, eg the energy of red+blue mixing is lower than the entropic/free-energy benefit of the colors being uniformly mixed?

Looks like how you make Applejack out of Hard apple cider. ethanol, methanol, and fusel oils have much lower freezing point, so if you freeze hard cider, in the morning you get a ball of liquor in the middle and very pure ice on the outside of the shell.

I was rooting for a Pacifica a few years ago. In town they're all electric.

Salt water teff, cooked like crepes

Injera at home isn't too tough if you can find teff flour

I'm embarrassed to say chicken wild rice soup with Kwik Trip rotisserie chicken is pretty amazing.

Or, you could just wait until the night before the first frost, like I am

Different field but I joined a union without much thought when I started with my current employer. I now feel sympathy for peers with non-union offices. Their situation seem so much more tenuous, fraut, and full of disrespect than my professional life has been.

I'm not trying to be cute, isn't this what a general education program is for? Everybody should take a little science. A little math, a little writing, a little social science, etc.

Did Clinton or Obama or Nader or Carter or Gore ever even talk about this sort of thing? We don't deserve Biden

" these gluten-free chicken nuggets are really good" is something I never expected to say out loud?

I wondered today about a farmland value crash when cars tip over to mostly electric and the ethanol mandate becomes meaningless. 2040?

I remember somebody (Ken Heller maybe?) saying "What's the point of homework if all they do is practice the WRONG strategies?"

Are you-all not unionized? The IFO has been good to me.
