Re:Yerba Mate – A Long but Current History (2021) on Tuesday December 13, 2022 @07:20AM (#33967921)
I also dislike when mate is too bitter, but that doesn't generally depend on the yerba itself, but rather on how you prepare mate.

Try: - removing dust from yerba, by covering the top of your cup with a slightly humid cloth and shaking it for a few seconds (the dust should stick to it, but the leaves should not) - heating using water a tiny bit under 70 degrees hot (above this temperature the first mates will be too bitter, and the last too washy) - pouring water always in the same place, so that the leaves slowly get wet from bottom to top

AI generated images are not art. They might use the same medium visual arts do, but they lack a meaningful vision of the world.

Of course defining art is a subject in itself, but I think that being afraid of AI replacing artists is comparable to thinking photography would when it was invented.

Don't understand why so many of these ideas keep popping up. What is so wrong about CSS that devs need to find alternatives to work around having to declare styles using the CSS language?
Your comment is a tiny bit racist?

Why do you assume construction costs are the only factor that drives property value?
