Based on your username, I would guess that you know the answer, but don’t like it.
Again, please stop putting people in boxes
Maybe her name is Dina.
4. Comments awaiting moderation aren’t editable until approved. (Previously they were editable even prior to being moderated.)
They should fix that. We should be able to fix typos after seeing what the post looks like in the thread.
5. The time available to edit has been reset to default (5 minutes?) rather than the longer pre-update setting. Please set to 60 or 120 minutes for comments to be editable.
We should also be able to edit other posters’ comments, for maximum manipulation of the discussion.
Not sure if this is a bug on my computer or if its a bug on the CR.
For some time, I haven’t been able to enter any profile pages.

Doesn’t work.
Not working for me as well.
I was able to see both profiles, both logged in and logged out.
One man d’amar, I forget who, holds that a reviis is only 3 fl oz.
R’ Chaim Naeh. I think 2.9, actually.
Thank you for that clarification. The OU’s policy follows a lenient opinion that canned tuna us not required to be bishul Yisroel, but many people are makpid.
Another question: is the OU aware that the truck has a visible OU symbol on it?
Alan, what’s the story with the truck? No veggie burgers? Everything sold is pre-sealed? Is it in fact certified?
Halevi: I haven’t seen the Darkei Moshe, but the Rema in Shulchan Aruch is clear that the kiyum of ad delo yoda is the sleeping, not the drinking?
What is “the kiyum of ad d’lo yoda”? Ad d’lo yoda is either a shiur or a p’tur. It is not the mitzvah. The Rema in Shulchan Aruch is perfectly clear as well. He says וי”א דאין צריך להשתכר כ”כ. He is limiting the amount of drunknness required, not eliminating the chiyuv to be somewhat intoxicated.
Does “Split” in the thread title mean there has to be a disagreement?
How are you understanding the Rema differently than the widely plastered am haaratzus?
Why is this in “Rants”?
It’s probably a rant against people who can’t fargin someone who follows ad d’lo yada kipshuto.
The edit button now only appears after the post has been approved by a mod, whereas previously it was editable even before being approved. That change is also unfortunate and it would benefit to going back to being immediately editable, especially since if the mod approval comes after the edit window closes it will never be editable.
That’s terrible! It means we actually have to proofread before hitting “send”.
We really also need edit buttons for texts, emails, and our mouths.
I don’t have a source for this (I heard it in a shiur) but apparently, Rav Moshe Feintein kept a certain minhag (maybe standing for havdalah?) which he felt wasn’t the best halachically, because his father did. He told his sons that he is not transmitting this minhag to them.
There is also an explicit teshuvah in Igros Moshe, as I recall, which says one can switch from Sefard to Ashkenaz (but not vice versa).
It is not a mitzvah if it compromises someone’s emotional and physical safety.
That’s not true. Even where one is pattur, such as a legitimate safety concern, there’s still a mitzvah, and one needs to find a safe way to do it.
I find it hard to imagine that such a situation is “emotionally unsafe”. It’s very easy to use “emotional safety” as a copout to avoid doing something which is difficult.
I could much more easily see this as a physical safety issue. Okay, so call the guy on the phone and tell him he left his keys in the door, and hang up quickly (but politely).
Enter Lomdus Patrol in 5….4….3….2…1….
Yeah, that’s a misuse of the term. If he knows he’ll be nichshal, maybe he shouldn’t, but then he’s in a bad place.
Bump
So I guess the question is, are we talking about the creepy guy or the frum guy.
That’s what I said. It depends who we’re talking about.
Popa, I hope when your single daughter has this issue, she follows her instinct and doesn’t knock on the door of that creepy guy who keeps giving her weird looks in the elevator.
Bodek does greenhouse romaine now as well.
Personally, I buy PosTiv. B’gan has broccoli and cauliflower (as does Pardes). There might be more.
The products I’m referring to do not require any further washing, as besides being grown in a greenhouse (I don’t know if the methods are the same used by Aleh Katif), they’re washed before packaging.
They’re worried about insects such as thrips and aphids, not praying mantises.
I’m not sure how they’re grown.
Yes, they’re more expensive, because they’re more costly to produce. The consumer has to decide whether the cost is worth saving themselves the time and effort required to wash and check the leaves on their own.
A zuz was never a minute amount of money. 200 zuz was an amount someone could live on for a year.
Leafy vegetables tend to have bugs. Some are grown in a bug free environment (greenhouse, with tight mesh preventing bugs from entering) then samples are checked by a mashgiach to ensure that they are free of infestation.

Ubiquitin, participant is obviously a higher level.
😉
Yoisef HaTzadik, why are you a member, not a participant?
You’re dreaming. Drink some more coffee.
I come here to get my daily halachah briefing…
Me too.
Actually, the OP sounds like the other option is to ignore it and hope he notices it before anyone else does.
Maybe he… will realize in a few minutes?
His apartment is the very first one up the stairs. Unless someone was going up the stairs though, I do not think that his keys would be visible to anyone except the people coming and going on our floor of maybe 7 apartments, and the mailperson if there were any packages to deliver today.
Yes, popa, that’s why the Torah calls arayos chessed.
Ubiquitin, I don’t know. It depends on the people.
so that is two issurim: the touching, and the friendship see (Igeros Moshe) this thread is not about issurim. IT is about returning lost keys
No, it’s not about returning lost keys. It’s about keeping appropriate distance to avoid issurim.
There is no clear rule for these things. It depends on who is person is. If you’re not comfortable, there’s probably a good reason for that. Even if you are, maybe you shouldn’t be.
DY – Except where it doesn’t, for example Chalipin.
Is chalipin a nesinah?
LC, but the Shulchan Aruch says to give anyone who asks.
Gavra, ????? always means a ??? ?????. See, for example, ??”? ???”? ?.

Gavra, it has to be a shava prutah.
Avi: Several batei din had researched the matter and determined that Borokovsky was a legitimate ger. Goren’s “psak” was a blatant political move (his stance on geirus was otherwise much more lenient). It’s not for nothing that the gedolim completely passeled Goren as a posek, including gedolim who otherwise generally stayed away from such controversies, such as R’ Shlomo Zalman Auerbach and R’ Moshe Feinstein.
There is no mitzvah to sell chometz. There is a mitzvah to destroy chometz, and an issur to own chometz.
So, having no chometz around is not an issue as far as not selling it, but you do lose the mitzvah of destroying it.
Maybe the reason I’m not President of the US is because I don’t want to be.
No, on the record cover.
If it were only so simple…
He made it on time for Shabbos.
Yes. Yaakov lifted the rock, and nevuah (prophesy) existed in times of Tanach, and we find amoraim bringing people back to life. It is said (I don’t know the source offhand) that even the least of the amoraim could perform techiyas hameisim (bringing someone back to life).
There are many more examples.
The Avos and Imahos, and Chazal, were human beings, but far from “regular people”. They were on a spiritual level we can’t even begin to comprehend.

Wolf,
The thing you are probably referring to (if I’m correct that the subject is one which we have discussed) is a matter in which gedolim (such as R’ Moshe and the Steipler zt”l) have clarified does not apply in every situation across the board. It certainly (as best I can tell) does not apply to you, Wolf.
Simcha613, have to thoroughly studied the sugya of dina d’malchusa to know when precisely it applies?
