apparently, you're not supposed to plant onions next to beets.

lettuce use this for questions too

I noticed diesel costs way more than the normal 20% premium over gas, and I assume that is because the demand for diesel hasn't tanked nearly as much as the demand for gas has tanked?

Today I learned Hugo Boss was a Nazi. (I'm aware a lot of German/Japanese companies had beginnings/connections in the WWII era, but this one was new to me. I'm not a big fashion guy).

3/26/2021 3:27:17 PM

The guy who invented Sea Monkeys was also a Nazi. If you had Sea Monkeys as a kid, chances are your Sea Monkey money funded a domestic neo-Nazi group.

3/26/2021 5:00:44 PM

^I did have Sea Monkeys as a kid, and I always thought it suspicious that none of them seemed to be Jewish.

3/26/2021 5:53:41 PM

Well, as it turns out, the inventor was himself a Jew.

3/26/2021 8:32:20 PM

Today I learned that DMX was homophobic and transphobic.

And that he glorified rape and murder.

And re-learned (after having forgotten) that he was an animal abuser (dog-fighting).

Quote :

"Harold von Braunhut invented a brine-shrimp-based product the next year, 1957.[3] Von Braunhut collaborated with marine biologist Dr. Anthony D'Agostino to develop the proper mix of nutrients and chemicals in dry form that could be added to plain tap water to create an accommodating habitat for the shrimp to thrive. Von Braunhut was granted a patent for this process on July 4, 1972.[4] They were initially called "Instant Life" and sold for $0.49,[5] but von Braunhut changed the name to "Sea-Monkeys" in 1962. The new name was based on their salt-water habitat, together with the supposed resemblance of the animals' tails to those of monkeys.[6] Sea-Monkeys were intensely marketed in comic books throughout the 1960s and early 1970s[6] using illustrations by the comic-book illustrator Joe Orlando. These showed humanoid animals that bear no resemblance to the crustaceans.[7] Many purchasers were disappointed by the dissimilarity and by the short lifespan of the animals.[6] Von Braunhut is quoted as stating: "I think I bought something like 3.2 million pages of comic book advertising a year. It worked beautifully."[6]"

Speaking of brine, marinate is from the same french root word as marine and marina as its origins were to brine meat in seawater.

One dozen tamales for $20 is not a good deal

""They added that females can grow to lengths of 24 inches while males only grow to be about an inch long. The sole purpose of the male fish is to help a female reproduce, reads the post. "Males latch onto the female with their teeth and become 'sexual parasites,' eventually coalescing with the female until nothing is left of their form but their testes for reproduction," reads the post.""

That's cold man

through the internet rabbit hole (started with Rick & Morty and the Asimov Cascade) I stumbled across Liebig's law of the minimum

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebig%27s_law_of_the_minimum

This led to a few readings on research papers on how it applies to population modeling as well as learning applications.
