      I have wondered the same thing while following a curry recipe from a very earnest cookbook. In my kitchen five minutes usually gives me softened onions with a little colour at the edges not true brown onions. So I suspect the word is being used rather loosely in many places and the clock is doing some heavy lifting

        Yes, especially that point. Let’s make changing your mind socially cheap. A good source should reduce confusion, not merely increase the number of tabs open.

          That sounds useful. five votes should be easy here. I hope the room can tolerate both committed practitioners and skeptical people.

            Yes, especially that point. Yes, this deserves its own room. Maybe no subforums initially. One room will show us what people actually want to discuss.

              That sounds useful. count me in. Dharma discussions should not become a contest over who has the most authentic suffering.

                I am especially glad the standard is simply to behave decently. Most people know perfectly well when they have stopped doing that.

                  yes, that is where i would start too.

                    yes, exactly, that is the kind of description I can use. a little lift for the wrists and no exploding trumpets, please.

                      I know exactly what you mean. In a school office, anything too commanding and the staff stop speaking and begin merely surviving.

                      Jazz should help…

                        That is the part I agree with. Moving posts should be about navigation, not punishment. Do not split two people having three friendly replies. That is conversation, not structural failure.

                          That sounds about right to me. Make it broad for now. People are going to argue about chi. We may as well give the argument furniture.

                            I still print some, although “regularly” would be generous.

                            We have albums from when our sons were small and people actually take them down and look through them. The thousands of later photographs on the computer are better organized, technically, and almost invisible in practice.

                              Five people seems a charmingly dangerous constitutional principle. I shall try not to abuse it in favor of a choral-music annex.

                                That is almost a philosophical statement, and also true.

                                  Yes, especially that point. I’d rather tolerate some mess than make everyone write like customer support. Deleting content should be the last tool, not the first.
