@hels Same issue with cups - it's a big problem with rice cookers. Japan 🇯🇵 cup is 200 mL, US 🇺🇸 cup is 236 mL. Rice maker water fill lines are tuned to JP cups. Measuring rice with a US cup results in a mismatch. We tried to fix this with @suviefood Starch Cooker auto dose of water.

Such an appropriate and well deserved honor. Alan and Susan represent what's best about Tufts University. And Alan has built Tisch into the most public-facing part of the University. Thank you both! @TuftsUniversity@TischCollege#mapoli#Massachusetts
IMO, one of the most important developments in the search world since... robots.txt
If Google really is forced to "offer a 'fair and proportionate remuneration' for the 'digital use' of press assets," it could upend the publishing ecosystem overnight.

OK, whew. I've now read all 130 pages of state AGs suit v Google.
In three words, Google is royally screwed.
Expect...
Press headlines: Facebook and Google colluded!
Deeper dives: Google turned open web into a walled garden of tying, exclusionary tactics, and privacy fixing.
We learned this weekend of the sudden passing of Kent Portney, Professor Emeritus at @TuftsPoliSci and Bob Bullock Chair of Public Policy and Finance, and Director of the Institute for Science, Technology and Public Policy at @BushSchool 1/n https://t.co/FgaaTtXvir
@cyantist@lorriemeyer Exciting! I hope you like your first meal - what are you cooking? I'm the CEO / co-founder / inventor of Suvie - we've been hard at work for 5 years building our robot and hope you like it!
Happy 20th anniversary, Tisch College! (Dean Alan Solomont, left, and President Tony Monaco.) A national leader on civic engagement and such a vital part of Tufts University #Tufts@Tisch @peterlevine #civics
This year we started off asking students to rate on a scale of 1 to 10 "How positive of an impact on American Democracy" various tech companies and media types are... We're going to ask again at the end of the semester to see how their thinking evolves.
Excited to be back on @TuftsUniversity campus teaching PS104 New Media New Politics w @JeffreyMBerry exploring the impact of technology and business on political coverage and voter behavior from newspapers to cable news and social media. Lots of exciting things to cover!
Looking forward to lots of heated but intellectual and respectful debates on the impact that technology companies have on journalism and in turn democracy and voter education and behavior.
