  • Conversely you don’t need to use nearly as much water if you are willing to just stir it a couple of times during the short period of time it takes to come back to a boil after you add the pasta.

    Less energy used, less salt needed to get the water properly salty, less time to get the water up to a boil, are why I choose that method. It comes out the same in the end, both methods are valid.

    Your example shows how far cultural norms have shifted. Reading a paper around others is anti social in a culture where you are expected to interact with and give others your attention.

    Each generation may react the same way to the new behaviors of the next generation, but that does mean those new behaviors do not form a consistent trend representing real change in the culture. In this case that trend is increasing individualism and weakening of community norms.
