The Coleman bacon doesn't list ingredients. But the Applegate bacon lists celery powder because that is a source of nitrates. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celery_powder

Thank you for ABZÛ! My daughter has played it at least ten times. And when she wrote a letter to your team for a school project, you sent back a t-shirt and a soundtrack CD. We've listened to that CD for hours on road trips, it is a great soundtrack.

In my case, they took so long to announce the iPhone 12 Mini that I gave up waiting and bought an SE even though it was slower than I wanted and had a poor camera. Four months later they announced the Mini, but I wasn't willing to replace a four-month-old phone. Then they discontinued the Mini line after 13.

When I was ready to buy a new phone, there were no iPhone Mini models for sale. It took more than a year, but I finally found an iPhone 13 Mini in stock on the Apple Refurbished store. Now I'm hoping to keep this phone alive until they finally release another small iPhone.

That link is about E-85. E-85 is 85% ethanol (actually 60%-85% depending on the season and the gas station). Ethanol has 30% less energy density than pure gasoline, so E-85 has 0.3*0.85=0.255 less energy density than pure gasoline. That is why E-85 gets 25% lower gas mileage.

"Standard" E-10 gasoline contains between 0% and 10% ethanol. E-15 is 15% ethanol. So E-15 has at most 4.5% less energy density than standard gasoline. You would not see a 25% decrease in gas mileage between standard gas and E-15.

Thanks, that is helpful! You’re right that terminology is confusing.

I understand that passwordless auth is better UX. But it seems like a step backwards in security from two factor authentication. Why are all these major players pushing passwordless auth but not allowing a password in conjunction with a FIDO2 token? I feel like I’m missing some important detail.

But the original question was about whether these jobs exist. Given that there are significant coordination and communication costs as the number of people on a team increases, it's in the employer's best interest to get more (productive) hours from a smaller number of people. If someone working a 16-hr work week incurs more communication overhead than useful product, employers won't hire someone who only wants that arrangement.
