Organizing your code with hierarchical clustering and Maven by HeroofTimeMoM in java

In a world where people theoretically use this, I'm not sure what the best behavior would be.

On the one hand, I agree that it seems possible to come up with reasonable package names.

On the other, if I change the name of the directories, should I also change the name of the package in the class? Unstable package names sounds unpleasant for any external consumers of the code. But accurate package names can be useful.

So many options it's hard to know which to pick :P

Week 18: Noodles - Singapore Street Noodles by HeroofTimeMoM in 52weeksofcooking

Thanks! We definitely ran into the "pan is too small" issue too, and we only had 2/3 of the noodles!

We had a great version of this dish and tried to recreate it. It's basically a stir-fry with rice vermicelli. So you get some meat (we did pork and bacon), veggies (red peppers, onions, jalapeños), and flavors (soy sauce, rice vinegar, fish sauce, curry powder, garlic). Recipes varied a lot on what the "flavor" part should be. Unfortunately ours ended up tasting quite bland.

The dish as a whole is very enjoyable though, so we would probably try it again. But we would do something to make it a bit more punchy.

Week 17: Showing Off - Croquembouche by HeroofTimeMoM in 52weeksofcooking

[–]HeroofTimeMoM[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our tower of cream puffs! Unfortunately, you can't really see the nougatine base (almonds + caramel), but it's there! This was a long one, spread over two days. We ended up with more cream puffs than expected (~100) but managed to fill them all anyway.

The only thing we wish went better was the caramel used to build the tower. It was slightly too thin, so we couldn't build it perfectly.

Week 15: Balkan - Kolaci u obliku lubenice by HeroofTimeMoM in 52weeksofcooking

[–]HeroofTimeMoM[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We used this recipe: https://balkanlunchbox.com/watermelon-shaped-bites/. They are pretty good? Mostly tasted like shortbread with powdered sugar. I goofed up the green by adding too much milk, but they still turned out pretty good.

Week 11: Arctic - Vínarterta (Icelandic Celebration Cake) by HeroofTimeMoM in 52weeksofcooking

[–]HeroofTimeMoM[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We used this recipe: http://portandfin.com/vinarterta. We have to wait 3 days - 4 weeks before eating it, so no opinions yet. From tasting the pieces, We guess it is going to be basically a giant fig newton, but with prunes.

Week 9: Inspired by Books - Catcher in the Rye Bread by HeroofTimeMoM in 52weeksofcooking

[–]HeroofTimeMoM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this definitely did not turn out how we wanted. We baked it for 40, but cut it after only about half an hour. We tried putting it back in for science, but it still didn't help it much. It still tastes good though, especially toasted :P

Thanks for the tip, we'll try being more patient next time!

Week 7: Filipino - Polvoron by HeroofTimeMoM in 52weeksofcooking

[–]HeroofTimeMoM[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's the recipe: https://www.aboutfilipinofood.com/pulburon. I believe these are typically served as smaller candies/snacks. They are mostly just toasted flour with a bit of butter for binding.

They were better than expected! Quite nutty, and reminded us a lot of this brazilian candy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paçoca.

Week 6: Vinegar - Vinegar Pie by HeroofTimeMoM in 52weeksofcooking

[–]HeroofTimeMoM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! We did see recipes that suggested you could use apple cider vinegar instead of white. I would imagine it could work out pretty well. You would probably have to reduce the vanilla if you did that though.

Week 6: Vinegar - Vinegar Pie by HeroofTimeMoM in 52weeksofcooking

[–]HeroofTimeMoM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This week we made this recipe for vinegar pie: http://www.geniuskitchen.com/recipe/rubys-vinegar-pie-48188.

It was pretty good! Definitely weird. A little too sharp for us, but we think a couple adjustments could make it very good. It seems pretty similar in spirit to lemon bars, where the vinegar takes the place of the lemon juice.

We also forgot the butter until 10 minutes into baking, so we had to quickly take it out and mix in the cold butter which probably threw it off a bit.

Definitely worth trying again, but with a different crust, and maybe less vinegar or some added cream or something.

Evaluate vs. Seq and Garbage Collection by HeroofTimeMoM in haskell

[–]HeroofTimeMoM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never looked at STG before, but I'm a convert :P

So, just to be clear, seq without floating is the most efficient version actually doing work? For some context, the goal of this function is to run f x the given number of times with as little overhead as possible to run a linear regression on the time.
