So we're in agreement?

My understanding of the washing soda is to raise the pH for saponification of fats and other non-polar compounds to dissolve in water. Saponification works best with more basic solutions which is why lye is used in soap making. By reducing the pH by adding vinegar you're neutralizing the washing soda to a degree because it reacts to create water with carbon dioxide and sodium acetate which overall makes a less effective detergent

Brilliant summation

I don't think you'll find it. Mayonnaise has a mechanism of lipid oxidation catalysed by iron ions present in egg yolks. Most mass produced mayonnaise contains EDTA to chelate metal ions and slow down lipid peroxidation. Lipid oxidation is also known as rancidity.

You can test this yourself by leaving a metal utensil in some mayo for a couple hours. It should turn black from a redox reaction

Having two sets of wrenches and sockets is absolute worst. Especially when it seems like 10mm does 80% of the work but is missing 100% of the time

How about another tongue twister?

Not op but I grow pollinator gardens in my community garden which typically attracts bees, hummingbirds etc.; check with your local nursery because there should be a native plant seed mix you can buy.

You may be a little late in the season (assuming northern hemisphere) for most seed mixes because I've mostly seen suggested sowing in fall or late spring

A major one

I have been living in Vancouver's downtown east side (de facto epicentre of drug use) for nearly a decade and this is the first I've heard of the programme. If it's been on for a while there's been no change. If it get reversed there will still be no change

The shepherd at night is probably a red herring. Shepherds stay out at night during lambing season which is February-April in Europe and North America but November-March in Israel

Props on the nature subscription, I had a subscription with physical copies that were fun to thumb through to really get a scope on my lack of understanding of everything in the world.

Why acedemic journals? Each article are all bleeding edge experimentation and theory that only the authors a handful of people really understand.

O'Reilly has a great subscription option and their books are very comprehensive and easy to read.
