My big problem with #Navidrome is that when I’m listening on the sofa and have all songs on shuffle, I have to bestir myself and walk across the room to skip a song I don’t wish to hear.

I can live with that, but there must be a way.

New episode.

EU regulations for extra-virgin olive oil include tasting notes. An oil that has any of the forbidden flavours cannot be classified as extra virgin.

But modern, old-fashioned oils in Provence go out of their way to develop some — but not all — of the EU’s “defects”. These throwback oils rely on up-to-date equipment and the skill of the miller.

In this episode, the paradox of old-fashioned modern oil.

My BirdNET-Pi detected a tawny owl a few times over the past week, usually around 3 am. We live near a big park so I was inclined to give it the benefit of the doubt. And I was right, because this morning, in the park, I found incontrovertible evidence.

I’m resurrecting my post from this day in 2021 because the question it asks still requires some sort of answer.

“damninteresting its core, is about how Lysenko’s fake science, intended to demonstrate the superiority of Marxist theory, was responsible for the death by starvation not only of Nikolai Vavilov but also of uncountable millions of Russians.

“Does a photo faked to show Vavilov in the card index of a library not undermine that intent?”

The unstoppable rise of extra virgin olive oil

The standards for extra virgin olive oil were adopted in 1960, after a decade marred by wholesale adulteration. Today, EVOO is everywhere, transformed from a mark of quality to a mark of little meaning. The terrible frauds have mostly vanished, but all is not rosy.

“I would argue,” says Carl Ipsen, “that a bigger problem today than fraud is transportation and storage.”

Eat This Newsletter 297: Proudly Inefficient

This time around, efficiency is a very poor metric.

Cooking is inefficient, but enables you to Eat Real Food. Just in time food delivery is inefficient when things are stable, but things are not stable. Microwaves are efficient, even for gourmet meals. Contemplating breakfast in too much detail is inefficient, but fun.

People love the idea of the agriturismo in Italy. As explained in this blog post, “the synergy between agrobiodiversity and sustainable agritourisms, touch the grass.

There’s more to it than that, though, according to the FAO.

As explained in this blog post, “the synergy between agrobiodiversity and sustainable agritourism creates a powerful feedback loop that safeguards both biological heritage and rural livelihoods”.
