My annual comp increases at FAANG are not 20%, but they have been consistent increases of roughly $45,000 a year, for little effort. I suppose it is a trap, but I am still content.
The 38th parallel was originally drawn up based on Soviet troops invading Japan-controlled Korea from the North, and US troops invading from the South.
5-star, less than 100 reviews: probably paid for reviews. I've never been to a "bad" place in this category, but I usually avoid it unless it's the most appealing option, so my sample size is small
4+ star, 1000+ reviews: definitely not bad. i would rate every place ive been to in this category as good or excellent, although some are overpriced. all of my favorite places in the bay area fall between 4.0 and 4.5
3.5 star, 100+ reviews: possibly good, probably not bad. ill check reviews, if people are primarily complaining about service and not food, it's probably good. i never pick 3.5 places if it's somewhere i've never been before, but i won't veto one if someone else suggests it
3.5 star, less than 100 reviews: i avoid these completely. i've still never been to one
less than 3.5 stars, any number reviews: i also avoid these completely
Can’t recall Trog. I was living on the Labyrinth, Netspace, Ozemail and a few other quakeworld/TF1 servers back in the day :) Omega Enzo Red was the name :)
I would like to see more celebration of the employees who confronted SBM and were then fired for "performance" or "culture fit". That behavior needs to be rewarded, not forgotten.
Combi-ovens are predominantly equipment that belongs in commercial kitchens, but nowadays, there are a few options (still not very many though) that can actually fit on a home kitchen countertop. The two notable ones are the Cuisinart steam oven (~$250-300) and the Anova Precision Oven (~$700); these are the low and high ends of the price range.
Did you miss a zero? Because all home combi-ovens I've seen in Germany are nearly 10x that price range. Granted, those aren't countertop but regular home oven form factor devices. They're explicitly for domestic kitchens though.
Correct. Although I am incredibly tempted to order a full sized shitty commercial one from China and hack on it.
All that goes on there is an evaporating tray of water and wet bulb temperature sensors (finicky to measure accurately). Imagine an environment similar to a dishwasher or rather, a sauna, where you play not just with the temperature but also the humidity by controlling the steam bath.
The Chinese commercial ones I am referring to use a fill valve with a float (not dissimilar to a toilet tank) to replenish the water from the evaporating tray found at the bottom of the oven. So might get away with an analog circuit.. I digress..
Instead of keeping your food in a plastic bag and recirculating the water through a heating element to keep the temperature you are just constantly boiling water and releasing steam so the entire oven cavity settles at an exact temperature AND humidity level. Hope I didn't bungle that explanation too much.
Anyway GM probably has super fancy home ovens of this nature for $10,000 a premium home gamer version of the sort of thing restaurants/fancy-hotels use. The pros simply front load food trays into them like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cfll7tUcuA
Being asked to pay money for "journalism" is insulting when you consider that readers are the product. Most of the money is made from sponsored content masquerading as unbiased news articles and advertisements.
Try to see the regular payment, as a sort of inverted slice of ransom. Which the public can withdraw en mass, the moment they feel betrayed. Creating a kind of attachement of the employee to the employer (You).
