Some fruit skins are okay, others are not.

And some are only okay if home grown or organic bc the skin is otherwise loaded with pesticide residues

In Germany, cash is strongly preferred or was the last time I was there a few years ago.

In Norway, cash is nigh nonexistent.

Don’t mistake Germany as representative of the median European country when it comes to card transactions.

There’s really no knowing what contaminating or failed spec made that batch super cheap.

It’s a race to the bottom, corners will be cut.

That doesn’t sound like being customer focused or obsessed at all.

Technically since it appears the effects are nebulous to you and if consciousness means informed then it seems a conscious decision is not possible

I was very curious if they’d kept the protein, fat and carb proportions constant, or what even is the typical meat rich diet. Is it spam and sausage at every meal? Could be from all the paper mentioned.

The paper did say they instructed the two groups to eat the same calories but overall the vegan group stayed the same weight while the meat group average gained kilo. One meat person gained 5kg!!! The meat group clearly did not eat their normal amounts of calories, an assumption the paper seemed to rely on.

Regardless of whether their criticism is factual, it’s absurd to use a direct competitors assessment of the competing tech as a credible source!

If you do that in the opening paragraphs of your paper, it’s wrecked all credibility for everything that follows.

They should show results from oxidation, thermal stability, accelerated aging tests.

And I’m beyond skeptical anyone would carefully recover this gunk each even once for re-use outside some contrived lab demo.

Just over half of physicians smoked in 1950, are you suggesting we made a mistake in discouraging smoking?

R&D spend does not correlate with innovation or creativity. It’s surprising what gets counted as R&D in a big company.

Small companies have to have an innovative product in order to compete with the big fish who operate economies of scale.

I can’t think of a single example where a super large company gets more willing to take risks when it gets larger. Theres probably a few exceptions but I can’t think of any.
