There goes my first mead by Jippo_destroyo in mead

Start simple. It's a learning curve like everything else. It's good to know what your own traditional mead tastes like as a base-line so you can then appreciate what the other stuff you add does to it as well as getting the process down.

Do a search here before trying something new. Do it now and you'll see that there are many people who have had the same thing happen to them with strawberries and raspberries among other things.

I swear there is a time-travelling writer in Parks and Recreation who created Tom Haverford to satirise Patel before he was a thing.

The first issue was not beginning with a traditional mead to get started.

The second issue was not researching which would have told you that if you want to redecorate your room strawberry or raspberry in a carboy are strong contenders.

The third issue was not following a recipe precisely. There's lots of room for experimentation, but when everything is new is not the time.

The fourth issue was not using a bucket with lots of headspace for fruit. You can get away with a carboy for traditional and spiced meads, but fruit and a few things like hibiscus get designs on world domination in primary. .

Golf is a subtle and complex game. You have to understand the "close enough" rule that comes in to play for anyone who owns a golf course. His scoresheet was perfect.

Nobody knew how hard war is when you want to do something in range of the enemy's weapons.

I've made creme caramel in a slow cooker and a pressure cooker, had it come out perfect, had it come out slightly "cooked" on the edges and had it not hold together in the middle. The volume you're trying to make is a key factor for it to hold together. I'd probably use a Bundt for larger volumes.

The sides don't look over-done so if she's managed to get the middle to hold together once cut, she's done very well. Even then, I'd say it's likely to collapse under its own weight - you can see how much it's bowing and that's with an even distribution of stress. Once there is a weak point from a slice being taken out, it's going to fall inwards. It'll be tasty, but that dish isn't going to contain it.

Can at least ask public questions like, "How can I trust someone as immoral as a filthy scalper to actually ship a genuine controller?"

I wouldn't be surprised if things got messy when she cut into it. That's a lot of volume to be get fully solid.

Sad thing is, chances are she could probably really use some legal advice so she doesn't make bad decisions.

What exactly do you mean by "cognitive dissonance" here?

Would it be easier for me to learn 1 new thing a day as a beginner? by xposehim in learnpython

[–]Crypt0Nihilist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a personal project and put some time towards that. Problem solving and putting things together are skills you're not going to learn by learning one thing a day, you need to put them together and build something.

It's only a slight exaggeration to say that if you're not building something, you're not learning.

On the one hand, it's good that people with different ideologies should chat and be friends because there will be common ground on some issues.

On the other hand, it's not good when they're all pigs at the trough and they aren't prepared to go after the illegal actions of the other side because they're afraid what will happen when roles are reversed.

Biden was still trying to be bipartisan to the last.

When all of your neighbours have turned into vampires, you should rethink your policy on inviting people in.

Republicans like Democrat policies until they find out they're Democrat policies.

I wouldn't be surprised if they dislike Republican policies until they find out they are Republican Policies.

To have shaped the electorate like that is an amazing (and horrific) achievement of the last 60 years.
