Of course that prolongs spoilage, but it’s advised to still only keep rice a couple of days max. It’s quite common so worth taking cereusly

Thanks! These are all great, the details, everything is very clear and crisp compared to before, hardly any garbledy goop, but I can’t shake the vertigo idk

I was referring to the demos shown at I/O, my brain seems to see them all as “flat”, it’s like a reverse magic eye thing. It reminds me of the uncomfortableness of a fever dream. I may be the exception tbf!

- Comment on Paw Police 1 week ago:
So many of the stories are the politics of what it means to be a theoretical “good police force”, in a world of corruption and awful policing. It starts with good leaders that value ethics over the law, and boots on the ground you can trust to do as little harm as possible. It’s a beautiful fantasy, with beautiful robots, beautiful animation, and excellent slice of life.

It’s not efficiency, it’s just not easy to visualise for people that have grown up elsewhere.
Julienne: 3mm × 3mm, 40-50mm in length
Brunoise: Diced Julienne, 3mm cubes, can be as small as 1 or 2mm
Diced has no official size, but it’s bigger, can be 5mm to 20mm depending on the dish.
There are predictably French names for all the different sizes, this page gets a bit muddled with inches in there again, but since they’re all French, I’d say trust the millimetres.

I’ve found the USA to have some of the nicest, most welcoming people I’ve ever met. Probably some of these people have been lead down dark voting paths, against their own, and the world’s, best interests. All we can really hope for is enough people speak sense persuasively enough for them to hear it. And that means being understanding, empathetic and tolerant.

- Comment on ‘You Can’t Lick a Badger Twice’: Google Failures Highlight a Fundamental AI Flaw 1 month ago:
The saying “you can’t cross over a duck’s river” is a play on words, suggesting that it’s difficult to cross a river that is already filled with ducks. It’s not a literal statement about rivers and ducks, but rather an idiom or idiom-like phrase used to express the idea that something is difficult or impossible to achieve due to the presence of obstacles or challenges.
I used the word “origin” instead of “meaning”, which didn’t seem to work.

Didn’t say anyone mention insurance. If you’re in an accident, and they didn’t indicate when manoeuvring, they’re at fault. Unintentionally tested this out. The opposite is also true, if you indicate, and someone runs into you, likelihood is they will be found at fault.

Alternative, it’s a different thing, but:
- Bake potatoes until deep brown; oil and salt them, if preferred
- Scoop them out entirely into a big bowl, be gentle but try to get all the potato without causing structural issues to the remaining skin.
- Skins go back in the oven, empty side up whilst you do the rest, should be crisping up but not shrivelling.
- Mash the scooped potato until smooth, adding black pepper, cream, cheese, bacon etc.
- Remove skins and refill them as densely as possible
- Mozzarella on top, parsley, herbs etc. to taste
- Back in the oven until looking good and ready
- Don’t burn yourself

Literally this is why it gets hate. It’s not remotely Cheddar. Real Cheddar is deliberately none of these things. I love a crunchy cheese crystal and a crumbly organic texture. To each their own, but it’s not Cheddar, barely cheese. I’d have it in a burger, but only because so few places will melt real cheese properly. Brie is pretty good in a burger. Is Somerset Brie really Brie? Time for a Frenchman to tell me to gtfo…
