So long Sriracha…

I’m spacing on this week’s Sunday Serial, but I did want to share that my youngest son, the culnarian, is making his own sriracha sauce. He took thai chilis from the garden and chopped them up. They are currently fermenting in a brine, needing a daily burp. Can’t wait to try the finished product.

I replaced the 256 GB Kingston stock SSD in my Asus Zenbook with one of the new Samsung 990 Pro SSDs. I’m not sure that I’ll be able to tell the difference doing basic office work, but the stats look nice. Reinstalling the OS makes a big difference, too. Not something I experience with macOS.

Researchers have been working on a way to prevent RSV since the 1960s, without success. But on August 3, 2023, the CDC approved a drug called nirsevimab (trade name Beyfortus): a long-acting monoclonal antibody that is 80 percent effective at preventing hospitalizations and 90 percent effective at preventing intensive care unit admissions. Nirsevimab is administered as a single, intramuscular injection and can be given at the same time as other vaccines.
