Mainstream US chocolate is heavier on sugar than EU chocolate, and likely has butyric acid. If you like your chocolate less sweet and creamier (i.e. all adults with a functioning sense of taste), then EU chocolate is going to be superior. chemistryworld.com/podcasts/…

"No one wants to be sold anything." I found this video insightful to learn how to successfully pitch myself and my ideas. While I don't do sales, I do need to influence others. Thanks @brantpinvidic and @vvanedwards! scienceofpeople.com/3-minute…

Back when I was at a large FinTech, we ran our own BB and only considered banning a researcher once, and that was because they went way beyond scope. They got a warning instead for the very reason you cite, we wanted the reports, and bans are only for criminal behavior.

I hate this report from @udemy; companies have distracting environments and Udemy’s solution is to train employees to perform better despite it? How about training companies on how to provide better working environments? research.udemy.com/wp-conten…

Thanks, I’ll not complain about changing the toilet paper anymore. Seeing the solution has made me appreciate what I have.

I've unearthed some interesting things, but I don't know if I'll ever top this. Here's my story about finding a one-of-a-kind, personalized Atari prototype... plus an interview with its creator: GCC programmer Noelie Alito! medium.com/@atarispot/the-zo…

As a "Superbacker" on @kickstarter, I don't track delivery of anything, instead I consider it a donation to further the public good of content creation and am happy when it does. This post by @jameystegmaier makes me think I'm in the minority. stonemaiergames.com/kickstar…

Rent one for a few months and try it out. If you like it, buy it, and if not, have it picked up. It’s in the same category as ping pong tables, giant trampolines, treadmills, etc where if you use it, it’s worth it, otherwise it’s a waste. Hard to know until you try.

We were able to steer clear of a network-connected washer. Biggest challenge we had was a fragranced anti-microbial coating that smelled bad and never went away after repeated washings. We returned the washer because of it.

I’ve seen BCP fall under Compliance, DR under Infra, IAM under IT, physical security under Facilities, employee travel safety under HR, anti-fraud under Risk, but also seen those under InfoSec, especially at larger companies.

We don’t have a microwave or a land line or live TV. It’s a slippery slope once you start simplifying your life.
