Key passage:
“The real message of this study is that overweight as defined by BMI is a poor indicator of mortality risk, and that BMI in general is a poor indicator of health risk and should be supplemented with information such as waist circumference, other measures of adiposity (fat), and weight trajectory,” said study first author Dr. Aayush Visaria, an internal medicine resident physician at the Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick, New Jersey.

I have some of both and they aren't really similar. Sriracha is sweeter and has more garlic flavor. They seem to have a different vibe. Both are tasty though.

There were articles that this was going to happen a year ago. I'm glad I bought enough to last a while. Another fantastic hot sauce is Secret Aardvark. It's hotter than Sriracha but has great flavor.

Has he requested this?

Since you have experience, can I ask how much you expect it to cost to run? I have a couple decades in IT, an AWS cert, a great domain name, and a bit of disposable income. I’m thinking of putting one up myself.

They want to protect their users from trolls. Blame the trolls.

When you have a group that don’t respect the rules and you don’t want to lower yourself to their level of discussion, you cut them out. Why would they be tolerated? And who is at fault here? The people wanting civility or the trolls causing issues? Why are you blaming the people defending themselves?

Good example! This is exactly the type of low effort, high judgement user they probably want to avoid.
