This is IMO where I've arrived at too. Some wine really sucks. Some wine is incredible. I've definitely been surprised by some <$20 bottles but in general $50+ wines are not going to have the same flaws that are common in cheaper bottles.

With that said... I've had some terrible bottles of $100+ wine from well regarded wineries.

It's hard to get out of that mindset, especially as a young new hire.

In the United States, your job is very closely tied to your livelihood due to high rents, few social support structures, health insurance often tied to your job, etc.

There's a model of thinking taught in schools and universities that teaches individuals to defer helplessly to their superiors, to be subservient to a fault and respect hierarchies as sacrosanct. When someone abuses that hierarchy, one either has to unlearn their programming, or assume the burden of the imposition of value on their psyche.

The loss of antlers and horns is one of the key characteristics of domesticated herd animals. They don't need them for protection against predators or intra-species rivalry, because a) we humans and our dogs do all the defensive work and b) we humans control how they mate with each other so there's no benefit for males to fight for resource and mating rights.

When I say "sheep" above, I'm referring to domesticated sheep, as is this article, not their wild cousins which certainly have different behavior.

I really wonder how much of the suspicion of wine comes from the class-conflict accoutrements and marketing.

I used to be a big wine skeptic. It seemed pretentious, overpriced, and boring. The people who liked it were the kind of people I disliked. Most of the places in the town I grew up in all had the same "big reds" at ridiculous prices. Wine was the thing that cost $12 that you paid $60 for at the local steakhouse to look important.

Then, I moved to a lesser-known wine-producing state and started actually trying wine. It took some time--and there were more than a few encounters with snobs and commercial puffery that made me want to rethink it--but it soon opened up into a huge world that I had no idea about before. It was far more fascinating and enduring than previous interests in whiskey or craft beer.

It's a pity that wine gets such a pretentious reputation. It's a fascinating blend of chemistry, geology, geography, and culture that at its heart is an agricultural enterprise.
Does the loss include Amazons entire IoT lineup?

The Thermostat, Air Purifier also seem like loss leaders. There was like 20-30 devices that were introduced a year or two ago which also included a microwave.

Especially the thermostat, it was a joint development with Honeywell and is like 1/2 the cost of other Smart Thermostats.

When I had an Echo it was only used to set alarms :$

Also, last time I checked for the Air Purifier, you had to do ~5 taps to get to the Air Purifier Data.

I was pointing out that Japan does let people become citizens after they've lived there for a period of time, the OP was suggesting the complete opposite. Renouncing previous nationalities is not the same as Japan not allowing people to become citizens, no matter how long they have lived there.

It's clear that Graham Hancock's theories are not well-substantiated. And anybody watching the documentary, will probably agree.

But he is doing something that archaeologists and historians are deeply afraid of. He is weaving a grand narrative of history, superficially supported by archaeological artifacts. And I believe that much of the criticism of him, is less because of his misunderstanding of historical artifacts, and more because he dares to weave this grand narrative.

If academic scholars dared to create a grand narrative of history and archaeology, I'm sure that they could do a much better job than Graham Hancock. But they don't. And so we are left to people like Hancock to fascinate us with the magic of the past and give meaning to the events that occurred.

It’s important to note that being listed as a “supplier” doesn’t mean NASA has actually purchased anything. A lot of times, it’s preemptive as a way of ensuring all the quality checks have been put in place so an PO can just be issued when needed without the delay.*

It also doesn’t mean they want spaceflight material. It can just be something needed to support the project, like shelving to hold extra parts. But if the charge code is traceable to the program, it makes the list.

> But unless you're seeking out that particular flavor profile

It's not just seeking out a particular flavor profile. If you want to experience something novel for your mouth and you've been drinking only $20 bottles for years, you will never encounter anything new. But if you try $100 bottles, you're much more likely to accidentally discover something new (whether you like it or not is subjective)

A nice thoughtful piece on tasting wine. Under scrutiny, sensational conclusions typically fall apart and sometimes they really tell you more about the "experts" than about wine. Fortunately for me, I can enjoy wine at many different price-points. However, I usually find the bottles which move me the most are priced at $50+.

A fun variation on this is to provide two bottles. Cover the labels with sheets of paper.

Pour everyone a serving of each (different color cups works best), and tell them that one bottle costs less than $10, one costs $95.

The group will taste and discuss and usually reach a consensus on which wine is the better wine. Ask if anyone disagrees.

Then, you reveal that both bottles were filled with the same boxed wine. It's really funny.

I've done this 3 times, and never had anyone suggest that they were the same wine before the reveal.

Without more information, I would assume that even with preferential tax treatment Ontario wine could be more expensive due to economies of scale. Production must be vastly lower compared to California, France, etc.

They do! The largest one right now (which is also receiving a wide release, even) would be X (March 2022), then the prequel Pearl (September 2022), and the soon-to-be-sequel in 2023.

They spent probably less than $5M total on the 3 movies (and filmed all at once), and the first two have already brought in $25M at the box office. A pretty good indie success story.

Not for you, because you want to use a turnkey solution, and you don't want to pay for it (instead relying on whatever model they have where you are the product, I guess?). But if you use IRC to talk to me, I can run my own bouncer for free, and I can run the client I want. I can even write my bouncer and my client, and still talk to you.

That's infinitely more open than Discord. It's just that you don't care about others.

But, there is the usual trick there. How do you transform your wine from a $5 wine to a $10 wine? Raise the price by $5. The assumption of quality is something exploitable.
A large plastic jug, actually.
I think this piece is more of a reaction to the hackneyed articles we've all seen about how wine knowledge is all bs. It's a qualification of those conclusions that does a good job of explaining that the reality is a little more complicated.
Not a lot, but quite a bit. Winemakers have told me that they can't sell everything cheaply, and not only for basic economic reasons : if it's too cheap, lots of people won't buy it!

As to the matter of price, most of my wine tasting friends (including some with proper wine collections) are perfectly ok paying 5-10 euros for a bottle, as long as they like the wine - some of them have even made it a specialty to find good and cheap wine.

At the other end, I was once served wine without knowing what it was at a friend's place. I took a sip, then something happened in my head, and I started crying (I cry when food is really good) . I still remember that particular bottle, and the, well, infinite landscape that had suddenly opened in my mind (I know it sounds utterly ridiculous , but this is how it felt). No other wine has had the same effect on me, and it turns out the bottle was worth about 400 euros!
Not OP but good friends with some highend winemakers who hold a similar but slightly different view, which is that below $20 dollars (or whatever the breakpoint is now) most vinyards generally can't afford the processes that allow for the best class of wine to be reliably produced, and above that price point, most can afford those processes.

You do occasionally get cheap wines that hit above their weight, but that's unusual.

More common, you get wineries hitting below their weight for a number of reason the winemakers aren't very good, there are issues with vinyard, it's a bad harvest, or the winemaker just wants bigger profits and is trying to convince people their wine is better than it is.

As an example of vinyard issues, I know a man whose vinyard produces very poor wine because his soil is rich in serpentine, which makes the wine smell funny. Even doing everything "right" his wine is not going to taste as a good as that made identically by someone with better soil.

This does not mean that wines at that price point must be good. I know someone who made the mistake of buying in a vinyard that was extremely rich in serpentine

The conclusion or the second premise should be changed to make the former a true statement. So either "Therefore all products start as trees" or "All products are ideas".
The point being you need a source of truth for PTP to figure out what the current date and time are. You won't be pushing PTP over the public internet, that's ridiculous. You can use a GPS/sat sync or atomic clock or NTP, doesn't matter, but something has to tell PTP what time it is. If you don't, then you will be subject to quartz crystal drift. It may or may not matter to your application(s), but for most people that care about time, they want the TAI timestamps to be at least reasonably accurate.
Yes of course you can always find an outlier to support your case but this is not the general case in the US. And certainly not at all comparable to what your options for self-expression would be in any of the United Arab Emirates which is actually the context of this whole discussion. The idea that they might be in any way comparable is absurd.

Internally that's the long term goal. Essentials/basics lines exist because Amazon has superior data on what their customers search for and return rates etc. Parts of leadership wants to open up more of that data to third party sellers and let the free market sort itself out.
Tata/Infosys etc are some of the largest single employers of H-1Bs, but collectively it really does seem that the majority of new H-1Bs every year are in fact issued to people already in the country on F-1 student visas.

Go ahead and ask any immigrant who had a H-1B about their path. I am confident you will come to the same conclusion.

They're definitely available for those who are interested-- Criterion is probably the most well known. But a lot of successful indie movies also get picked up by regular streaming services, too. They're just usually not heavily promoted (usually little to no marketing budget).
> I could see one becoming convinced price has no correlation with quality given the bullshit that's sold in the $10-20 range.

Yeah. There seems to be a lot of variability below $20. That said, it’ll you do the math, it’s tough to make a wine with a good and distinct character below $20 for reds and $15 for whites (I’ve seen it, but it’s relatively rare).

Also, totally agree with your edit. California wines have a lot of challenges with marketing over substance across the whole range or price points.
Carl's Jr was 'transferred' to CKE (Carl Karcher Enterprises) which then acquired Hardees, and Hardees became Carl's Jr in everything but name (as far as I can tell). What was interesting is the absolute numbers: The "merger" created a chain of 3,828 restaurants – 3,152 Hardee's outlets in 40 states and 10 foreign countries and 676 Carl's Jr. outlets primarily in California.
