I've found I like any that aren't dominantly vegetal or muscatel grape flavored

A random assortment of flavors I've found and liked:
Woody
Leathery
Orchid
Grassy
Mushroom
Fruity
Pine
Mesquite
Campfire
Smoky

Has goose tried puerh? There's certain varieties that can be like this, but stretched out over 5 or more steeps

My approach to mitigate under/overexplaining?

Avoid saying "you" to make the person feel singled out

Creates low-risk open dialogue if underexplained, especially since they understand it's ok to not know (most ppl don't) & ask

Derisks and contextualizes you overexplaining to someone knowledgeable

Reminder to call your parents.

And make plans to spend more time with them outside of a single holiday visit each year.

You have less time remaining to spend with them than you think.

Conversely, you now know how to quickly boost a good reply into other peoples' feeds

PSA: you can tweak the replies you see in your home feed.

Looks like the default is only showing replies with at least 2 likes.

If you follow only a few people and want to see more of their discourse through replies, you might want to lower that count

Yunnan Sourcing
Prices seem to be a little high relative to the rest of the market, but given I'm newer to it I was willing to pay the trusted curation premium.

I've also noted that some kinds stretch their flavor profile much longer than others, so those don't feel as expensive with more use per g

Yunnan Sourcing Immortal Monkey 2016 is gonna be a great daily drinker.

2005 CNNP Big Yellow Mark was also a solid pick for the woody, smoky characterized sheng.

Sheng is goated, tend to like it aged minimum 5 yrs, but 10ish is about the sweet spot for me.

I'll enjoy just about anything that whose primary flavor isn't vegetal (prob underaged) or muscatel grapes. The muscatel one was just one sample, and I just very much do not like muscatel in general.

Centralized and/or coordinated block production means real-time censorship is always possible, for the right price.

If this thesis is correct, there will be a mad dash to use ETH for staking & restaking to capture the yield

What happens when there's a mad dash for ETH?

this, of course, is dependent upon how the mechanism is designed for validator set entry/exit

keep a watchful eye on whether Ethereum decides that a validator cap is required. if that day comes, LSTs may have a steady *premium* to natural ETH.

gonna attach octorok balloons to my arrows, tag bokoblins with them, then use a korok leaf to blow them off the side of the island and watch them tremble in fear as they float in the sky

Sometimes am coming across a reply to an OP that has been deleted, but it's not very obvious that it was a reply (instead of an OP itself) in the first place.

Some thought that personal computers were too complex for the general public, but we now have the tools to make them useful for everyone.

Sometimes you need to make a tool accessible before most people find utility in it. I find accessible algorithms to be a worthy endeavor.
