A space for mostly short form stuff and responses to things I see elsewhere.
Almost identical to my own journey, although I haven't scoured ALL the places I might have left a bookmark. I should watch the tagging video, because I know I am too lax about tags, and have too many tags with only a single item. AI could fix that, right?
I've often dreamed of handing headphones to people playing their shitty phone-based noises out loud, but never taken it beyond a dream. Terence Eden could be living the dream with his two quid shitty earphones.
Current me thanks past me for due diligence.

New episode: How the Spanish learned to love anchovies
For hundreds of years, the people of Spain wanted nothing to do with anchovies, except perhaps as fertiliser for their fields. Today, they eat more anchovies than anyone else. How did that happen?

@johnjohnston Thanks. I suspect that if you are getting through the tins pretty quickly then it might not make much difference, because they spend much more time un refrigerated in the supermarket and warehouse.

After a week away seeing family and mostly ignoring the online, it is very good to be back home and online.
Last week was National School Lunch Week in the US. The latest Eat This Newsletter wonders why there is still no such thing as a universal free school lunch.

Truly baffled by someone who has a kind of About page that links to their various online presences, and the one labelled “blog” takes me to a Substack signup. Whatever else you may think it is, a newsletter is not, on its own, a weblog. At least, not for me.

For some reason, we both woke at our normal time and then slept on for another 90 minutes. TGIS
I knew most of this history, as a relatively long-time user of Known, and I contribute to the project via Open Collective. A new version of Known would be even better than a functional exporter, but I would settle for that if I have to.
In the latest Eat This Newsletter
- Nutrition experts who feed off big food
- The tomato in India
- Tainted turmeric
- Cloves, with a hitch
- 陈麻婆豆腐: is the story true?

@jeremycherfas love both episodes almost as much as anchovies. I am trying to try to keep my tins in the fridge now. I get them from the supermarket I wonder if they are good enough for the fridge to make a difference?
