The attack was done by the “yemeni armed forces” which is the official military of yemen.

However, yemen has been in a civil war since 2014, with command of the military split between the government and the hoithi rebels.

The spokesperson who took credit for the attack in the article, yahya saree is described by wikipedia as being part of the houthi faction.

This seems to be much less of an official yemeni military action than the text of the article might lead you to believe.

That’s who I found when trying to learn things. Are her reported test results inaccurate?

corningware does contain lead in the glazes used for the colored patterns on the sides.

From my reading on the subject, vintage corningware baking dishes have high levels lead in the glazes used for the colored patterning. They seem to consistently test negative for lead on the white surfaces used for cooking.

Lead can get into your food as those colored patterns wear off, and the dishes get washed. It is a danger, but corningware isn’t directly marinating your food with lead.

Lead is still in many kitchen products. Its mainly in paints and colored glazes, and other coatings. Though corningware is bad, there are many other sources of lead in many other parts of the kitchen.

TIL every year with a rent increase is a recession. Whenever housing prices increase faster than income that’s a recession. When college tuition goes up faster than incomes that’s a recession.

the compromise that upsets everyone!

Actual engineer: the glass requires a 2.0 factor of safety.

I see this posted a lot as if this is an issue with capitalism. No, this is what happens when you have to deal with maintaining the power grid using capitalism as a tool.

Power generation needs to match consumption. Always constantly the power grid must be balanced. If you consume more than you can generate, you get a blackout. If you generate more than you use, something catches fire.

Renewables generate power on their own schedule. This is a problem that can be solved with storage. But storage is expensive and takes time to construct.

Negative prices are done to try and balance the load. Its not a problem, its an opportunity. If you want to do something that needs a lot of power, you can make money by consuming energy when more consumption is needed. And if you buy a utility scale battery, you can make money when both charging and discharging it if you schedule it right.

That’s not renewables being a problem, that’s just what happens when the engineering realities of the power grid come into contact with the economic system that is prevalent for now.
