    1. Pomegranate Molasses
      from Allrecipes
      Pomegranate Molasses is a syrup used in Middle Eastern cooking. It has a bright ruby red color, and its sweet and sour flavor goes well with so many other ingredients. It is commonly available in Middle Eastern markets, but is easily made at home if you can get pomegranate juice, now easily found in supermarkets.

    Not much of an alternative to a https://www.etsy.com/market/nose_mitten

    Looking at the nose mitten photos on DuckDuckGo, they resemble smaller, nose-only COVID-19 face masks. Marking “nose mitten” as #TIL.

    #TIL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austrelaps (Australian Copperhead Snake)

    "Austrelaps is a genus of venomous elapid snakes native to the relatively fertile, temperate, southern and eastern part of the Australian continent. Three species are currently recognized, with no subspecies. They are commonly called copperheads or Australian copperheads. They are not closely related to the American copperhead, Agkistrodon contortrix."

    1. The Bad Grade That Changed The U.S. Constitution
      from NPR.org
      The 27th Amendment had languished for nearly 200 years before a Texas student made passing it a personal cause. The amendment was ratified 25 years ago this weekend.

    #TIL: “Ukraine” is the English transliteration of “Україна”, pronounced oo-CRAY-yee-nah

    I just assumed that we pronounced it the same as they did.

    Also, there used to be some Ukrainian families (refugees) living nearby in the 1990s. I really enjoyed the sound of their language when they spoke to one another. I have not heard it since then.

    1. What is the difference between Boolean logic and propositional logic?
      from Mathematics Stack Exchange
      As far as I can see, they only employ different symbols but they operate in the same way. Am I missing something? I wanted to write "Boolean logic" in the tag box but a message came up saying that...

    Those commercials were years before I ever even heard of Garth Brooks. Wow. I'm surprised. #TIL also.

    #TIL: Angular's web-server doesn't deal with networking like #nginx or #apachehttpd (both of which work fine on test server).

    I learned that working on https://github.com/Faldrian/bandcamp-scraper

    I also learned that #CouchDB is a PITA. I probably could have figured it out, but it isn't high on the "must learn" list.
