Asian grocers have frozen lemongrass for cheap. From frozen it's easy to grate. Highly recommend

I think lemongrass is one of the most underrated aromatics. It has this incredible citrusy, floral aroma without the acidity of lemon juice. It's used in a variety of different Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, and Malaysian dishes. I love it in beef rendang, but this was just a quick lemongrass chicken marinade that I used for banh mi.

Nah, bad take. I love a microplane, but box graters have 4 different sizes and can absolutely crush bricks of cheese, potatoes for hash browns, slices of cheese / other vegetables on the side. Most home cooks would be better off having a fine microplane for things like zesting citrus, grating parm reggiano as a garnish, finely grating garlic, AND have a box grater for larger volume shredding. Sure you could by 5 microplanes of different sizes, but then that also takes up space and costs more money. They serve different purposes. Both are very useful.

Controversial opinion: box graters are almost entirely useless and a waste of space. Buy a Microplane

Just rewatched Dune and MAN, I forgot how much of a drag Chani is. Just scene after scene of pouting and scowling while Paul unites her people and heroically leads them to victory over the outworlders that have plagued them for centuries. Truly the wettest of blankets.

ABC, 9 and 7 news segments about the new cancer vaccine claim Australia created it. Total misinformation, just did the phase 3 trial. are they being mislead by Georgina Long, the oncologist they interviewed ? or did they "creatively word" it to create a better story?

hugely profitable export. Love it, although - often just paying for visa, and we should just auction those instead - sometimes this is life savings by people who have been mislead about how valuable it will be for worm, or the pathways to PR

China has gotten ahead of the US in biotechnology, largely by making their clinical trial system more effective. I covered this in a @nytimes article. Now, American patients are travelling there to have access to drugs they can't access at home. It's high time the US woke up and implemented much needed reforms.

As Politicians Argue About China, US Patients Find Cutting-Edge Treatment There - KFF Health News

The rapid emergence of the Chinese biotech industry has panicked U.S. politicians, but investors and patients caution that a clampdown on pharmaceutical collaboration could hurt everyone.

More private keys by the Indian certificate authority have been discovered. These are all small numbers. People are suspecting that they interpreted 384 bit keys to mean that they should pick numbers from 1-384 to use as their private keys.

my dot is dealing what support with a health care provider. They tried to deflect with AI, but mine eventually got through to a person. Now dot is giving unnecessary details and wasting their time and I feel bad.

ask not what Brisbane could have open late for you. Ask what you could do if you got up a few hours earlier

Amused that AWS just unilaterally cancelled Cloudflare's Reinvent booth. There are always signs when someone finally realizes they're losing. Guess we'll just attend and throw the most fun side events without paying Amazon! Reply if you want an invite.

You know people can just look it up right? This is blatantly false.
