  • I'm a little surprised to be honest.

  • So was a wrong, most researchers go through MD/PhD programs? Like what percent of researchers go through medical school? 50/50?

  • So I'm curious. The way I see it, the actual practicing of medicine doesn't advance the field itself. What advances it is research and development. Do the researchers actually go though med school or is that path more like biology PhD, chemistry PhD, etc?

  • Calverese raised nearly five times the amount Boebert did between July and September 30, a whopping almost $2.7m in contrast to the congresswoman’s $532,000.

    “Keep in mind, actually the highest percent of voters in this district are unaffiliated,” she adds, noting that she’s “absolutely” targeting that bloc. “So people are thinking beyond the party paradigm … we’ve been doing meet-and-greets all throughout the district

  • The Stop Wall Street Landlords Act has been introduced in Congress by Rep. Ro Khanna. The bill would raise taxes on the purchase of single family homes by private equity and corporations.

  • Raise taxes? They'll just pass the cost on to the renters. We need to forbid then from buying houses.

  • "In May 2022, Russia’s space chief said in a post on Telegram that Musk would 'answer like an adult' for supplying Starlink to Ukraine’s Azov battalion, which the Kremlin had singled out for the ultraright ideology espoused by some members," the Journal reported.

  • Why is sucking better than blowing?

    Jump

  • I would guess that it's moving moisture away from the vicinity. Blowing it far away instead of inwards to the kitchen. Then normal evaporation can happen better.

    But I think you really don't need to bother, why not just let them dry?

  • It's not 45 minutes of prep, you're still talking as if you're scrubbing working on it the whole time. IF you have the option before you need it, you go stick it in the solution. And you don't need to sit there staring at it, you go do something else, you prep something else, again IF you have option before you need it.

    And it's not 45 minutes or bust, the longer it goes the more you get. The first study mentioned was based on 20 minutes. These are diminishing returns with time, so I expect 10-15 minutes will get you a ton.

    Your advice is plan it out so that you’ve got a high PH solution that you leave your veggies in for 45 minutes before use.

    And to address your strawman, which I thought the options were so blindingly obvious that I didn't bother stating: If you don't have that planning option, yes you can scrub the hell out of it but know that will get off far, far, far less. That was the whole point.

    You are the one that won't admit that you are wrong when the data is right there. You have to change it to you don't have time and strawmans. Inb4 your next round, you can say I overspoke in my first comment, more accurately: "They’ve studied that and it doesn’t get rid of [much/most] pesticides." Why do I bother with such bad faith. Ciao.

  • Oh you're right looks like AIEW and sodium bicarbonate are different, but they are in the same tree.

    Pesticides in cucumber were more easily removed by alkaline solutions, such as AlEW, micron calcium, and sodium bicarbonate solution, compared

    Other info:

    Among these washing processing methods, 2% sodium bicarbonate solution and ozone water caused 20–40% more loss of the 10 pesticides than tap water.

    the order of the removal effects of 10 pesticides in spinach by washing with detergent solution was as follows: ozone water and active oxygen solution > micron calcium solution >AlEW (pH 12.35) and sodium bicarbonate solution > AlEW (pH 10.50) > tap water. These washing methods are two to four times as effective as tap water.

    You don't have to "bathe" your produce (which conjures up imagery of scrubbing the whole time), you just let it sit afaik. There is a planning factor, but I can plan ahead and let it soak. Takes no more time.

    You're comparing high range of one (water) with low range baking soda (which you call chemical bath), when there are massive ranges? That (along with misleading terms) is bad faith discussion there. So ciao.

  • Harris blasts Trump on reported Hitler comments, says 'he wants unchecked power'

  • “Yesterday, we learned that Donald Trump’s former chief of staff, John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler,” she said.

    “Donald Trump said that because he does not want a military that is loyal to the United States Constitution, he wants a military that is loyal to him.”

  • At a minimum rinse all fresh produce under tap water for at least thirty seconds.

    The mechanical action of rubbing the produce under tap water is likely responsible for removing pesticide residues.

    Personally I wouldn't call mechanical action of rubbing to be rinsing. I would have liked to see the % removed, but skimming that article I didn't see. Also in my experience people don't rub for 30 literal seconds, the people I watch are lucky to break 5 seconds.

    But the main point I want to make is that baking soda is a base that breaks down the pesticide.

    Liang [4] studied the removal of five organophosphorus pesticides in raw cucumber with home preparation, and the research results show that washing by tap water for 20 min only caused a pesticides reduction of 26.7–62.9%. Sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate solution caused a pesticides reduction of 66.7–98.9%.

    The removal efficiency of other washing solutions outperformed the tap water; tap water washing only caused a 10–40% loss of the 10 pesticides, and the AlEW, micron calcium, and active oxygen solution caused a 40–90% loss of the 10 pesticides.

    AIEW being alkaline electrolyzed water, which I understand to be baking soda.

  • They've studied that and it doesn't get rid of pesticides.

    To get rid of pesticides you need to immerse it in a baking soda solution for about 20 minutes.

We’re going to stop doing mass grants of Temporary Protected Status,” Mr. Vance said at a campaign event in Peoria, Ariz. “Of course, you’re going to have people fleeing from tyranny, but that happens on a case-by-case basis, not by waving the magic government wand.”
