Phi for All

I did this a couple of hours ago for some barm cakes. The dough rises as it proofs and air bubbles form. You want to knock that down/punch it down/fold it in on itself to break those bubbles up and get the yeast back together with the sugars and moisture and starches to form up a better bond/grain/crumb. It also improves the flavor as it brings the ingredients back together to complete their chemistry. For rustic soup breads where lots of air bubbles are a plus, I never knock the air out, just mostly on sandwich breads where I want an even, tight crumb.

I'd have to see what kind of money your company is sending to its stockholders and C suite before I could assess why they're struggling with finances. I just know virtually every major company blames regulations for their woes, yet they usually don't reduce executive salaries and bonuses as an option.

This is pure industry propaganda. The facts are that industry can't afford NOT to adapt to changing climates, and trillion-dollar losses are predicted if something isn't done to mitigate the impact. About 80% of industry around the globe depends on stable supply chains, and the costs when these are disrupted is staggering. Personally, I think there are some extremist capitalists keeping up this propaganda because they make hideous profits when disasters strike and there's nobody else to turn to, and they see climate change as an opportunity for profit, so they spread the BS that no one can afford it and industry across the globe would collapse, adding that dung to the small-government dung many conservatives spread regularly.

Hopefully around the 20th time you say it, when my face is still a blank, you'll realize you need to point at something, or pantomime what bumbilrorgging looks like, or draw the concept in the dirt with a stick. If you actually tried to say this to me a million times, I'd get my own stick way before you finished. Made to know, like from the womb? No, language is learned. We don't have a lot of innate abilities.

I would add to this that our intelligence offers us a chance to reason beyond appearances, so that our choices are both broader and more meaningful.

Ooooh, I like that! The US has moved away from the extended family and focused on the nuclear family, which is stretched to the point of exhaustion, doesn't have enough bodies to deal with all the problems of modern life, and lives isolated from the help it often needs. Elders don't get to pass on their wisdom or warn us about dangers in the past on a regular basis. I think many folks were raised without the wisdom of grandparents, aunts, and uncles living in the same house, and now we have a couple of generations who lack poise and feel their issues require raising the roof. Grandma would have explained the situation before letting you out of the house with such bizarre ideas. "You want to ban a math text because it references 'social awareness'? Sit your butt down and let me tell you what being aware is all about."

So true, and so unfortunate considering how loudly extremists squeak.

Honestly, I don't think most people "are" the way we think in the US. Most of our sources of news are entertainment based, and talk about big issues using simple words that can be interpreted differently by everyone who hears them. Both sides hear the same words, but one side interprets them as "book banning" and the other side reads it as "protect the children", so both sides think the other guys are inhuman and have ZERO common sense.

I disagree with most of the opening post. Hobbling yourself with so many absolute beliefs (simplicity = good, complexity = bad) is not being objective enough for science. There's no reason why physics has to conform to our concepts of neatness and symmetry. I've never understood why some people demand that the universe be intuitive and simple, when we know it's definitely not. And as far as being able to explain QM to a five-year-old, I think that's just a platitude that seems more reasonable than it is. Some areas of science require more sophistication, or knowledge from multiple disciplines studied in tandem. I think "dumbing it down" for laypeople/children has caused a LOT of problems with understanding (dare I bring up the "fabric" of space popular explanation for gravity again?). In actual practice, demanding explanations simple enough for a child runs counter to our best methodologies. It's a cognitive bias if you're only looking for things you can explain to a child. Clouds must weigh next to nothing if they can float up so high in the air like that, right?

! Moderator Note It's clear that you're filling in gaps in your science understanding with information you've made up, rather than studying until you figure it out. You misuse a LOT of terms, and then you base the next guess on concepts you don't understand. I'm going to close this thread and suggest that you go back to studying, or read some of the excellent threads we have on science subjects.

I think DeSantis is a typical toxic male bully-type, cowardly to the core, so of course he became a lawyer and a politician. He was such a weasel during the pandemic wrt the MAGA anti-vaxxers that he wouldn't even tell the terrified people in the state he runs whether he'd had the vaccine or not (and remember when he bullied a bunch of school kids into taking off their masks before a press conference?). And all these books he's banning are just more red meat for the ignorant base he manipulates. I don't see how this gets past legal review, which makes it a big fat waste of taxes. I think his stances may play well to the bumpkins who voted him in, but once he tries to go on the national stage he's going to have to back off on his extremism, and that's going to make him look weak. When he goes back to being toxic Ronny D then I hope Americans have had enough of it and vote for anybody else. DeSantis is such a lying fascist that apparently he gave a statement that him banning books was a fake news hoax, and then he started listing reasons why he was removing certain books from the schools.

Brad Watson_Miami FL has been banned. If your prerequisite for discussion is that everyone has to take your word about something extraordinary, switch to blogging.

My first hit checking online was CCTV cameras installed in Somalia. Then I really had to wonder why you have to really wonder when you can just check.

This isn't an "uncomfortable issue". It's just plain wrong. You can't tell me how consciousness could exist at the time of the Big Bang, yet you insist that it was not only present, but concentrated. The beginning of your diagram is patently false, and you're reluctant to fix it, so there's really nothing to discuss. Your explanation fails when compared to what we already know about the universe. The only thing that's uncomfortable is your insistence that you're right, even though you admit you can't answer many of my questions, and it's beyond you. That's pretty uncomfortable. I don't know how to help someone who won't listen.

You think of it as "figuring out the drive" but that's NOT what you're doing.You're "trying to describe" something that hasn't been identified, and making up terms as you go. That seems like a waste of time, just guessing based on more guessing. Not very methodical.

But if gravity was weaker, our muscles would be weaker as well. It wouldn't make lifting a lighter block any easier. Our theories on gravity are a bit of a problem when trying to mesh them with other theories, but I think you'd find them fascinating. A meteor would only make the Earth's gravity stronger if it added to our mass.

! Moderator Note You have no credibility here with this kind of garbage. Your OP is one big Question Beg. You need to NEVER start a thread like this here again. There are plenty of crackpot sites for you to torment, so please take your goofball conspiracies and leave us alone with our mainstream science.

Are you looking for a list? The questions are vague, so the answers could be something like "a shock collar", or "throw the person in prison for a year", or "a squirt gun filled with vinegar". You should try to be clearer when you start a conversation. Your title is redundant; since this is posted in Homework Help, we already knew you need help to solve a problem. Your opening post isn't clear about what the school subject is (is this Philosophy, Social Studies, Psychology?). What is "Tips for Study"? Is this what you're looking for? Why isn't that the title?

! Moderator Note Not here, not in a mainstream science section, so please don't bring them up yourself in this thread.

! Moderator Note You're the one causing the misunderstandings, and I have no idea what you're talking about. This is a science discussion forum, and I think you're in the wrong place. None of this is advancing the understanding of science. You need to stop opening threads like this and perhaps read some of the other threads to get an idea of what we like to talk about.

! Moderator Note This isn't what we do here. We don't advertise people's books, we don't advise them on how to sell things to people. We're a science discussion forum, and this is NOT science.

Your definitions are too vague. What's the consciousness and emptiness dance? Are you just making this crap up as you type? Consciousness requires some kind of sentience, and I just want to know what you think was sentient at the time of the BB? No more dancing, no more vague terms. Are you claiming there was a thinking, conscious being at the time of the BB?

WHAT or WHO was conscious at the time of the BB? This is the third time I've asked this.
