    “Remain wary of the frailty of men. Their wills are weak, minds young. Were it not for fear, death would go unlamented.”

    “Seek the old blood.”

    “Let us pray, let us wish… to partake in communion. Let us partake in communion… and feast upon the old blood. Our thirst for blood satiates us, soothes our fears.”

    “Seek the old blood.”

    “But beware the frailty of men. Their wills are weak, minds young. The foul beasts will dangle nectar and lure the meek into the depths.”

    “Remain wary of the frailty of men…”




  • I use this recipe to make 2 thick crust pan pizzas:

    • Flour: 420 g (3 1⁄2 cups)
    • Water: 285 g (2 1⁄4 cups)
    • Yeast: 4g (1 1⁄2 tsp)
    • Salt: 8g (1 1⁄2 tsp)
    • Olive Oil: 16 g (1 1⁄4 tbsp)

    It works for thin crust too, just reduce the quantities by 25-50%.

    Homemade pizza dough (and lean bread in general) is really easy to make at home by hand. The day before you want pizza, just mix everything together into a rough sticky dough ball, let it rest a few minutes, then knead until it’s smooth. Then stick it in the fridge overnight or up to 5 days or so. More time in the fridge means more fermentation and more flavor. After 5 days, it’ll start taking on slight sourdough qualities (though if you want an actual sourdough crust, you’ll need a sourdough starter).




  • I see two possible reasons for your situation. One is that the company is turning to contractors to fill in gaps in their knowledge/experience, which is why everyone else has no clue how to tackle these tasks and why they get assigned the easy ones.

    The other possibility is that the senior devs are gaming the metrics, letting the employees knock out easy tasks while the contractor is stuck with untangling the knots of the more intractable tasks.

    It was eaten too quickly!

    The steaks were actually cooked to opposite preferences. The filet was a perfect medium rare, but my wife likes it more medium/medium well. The ribeye was a solid medium, but I like it more medium rare.

    The ribeye was delicious, though, and my wife was happy, so no complaints.



  • GPL can be used for commercial purposes, but it requires all software derived from it to also be open source and GPL compatible. So no one whose commercial business relies on selling software will use GPL because their customers can copy and distribute the code.

    Neither Safari nor Chrome’s rendering engine is GPL. Safari’s engine is LGPL, which means the binary library can be linked into a closed source program, but modifications to the library’s code must remain open.

    Chromium is BSD, which doesn’t even require modifications to remain open. So I can take chromium’s source, change it however I want for my own browser, and never distribute that code.

    If Safari’s and Chrome’s engines were GPL, Safari and Chrome would be forced to be open source, and they very much are not.



  • I’ve made a fair amount of pizza in my cast iron, and it took some trial and error to get the pizza to not stick.

    Either preheat the pan fully before adding the oil or fat and (carefully) drop in the dough, or use a generous amount of butter and shape the dough in a cold pan.

    When spreading toppings, cheese along the edge is fine, but try not to get much sauce on the sides of the pan. That will burn and eat away at the seasoning more.

    My pan doesn’t have great seasoning, though - I mostly just use it for pizza every other week or so.
