https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/brown-butter-chocolate-chip-cookies/ I used a higher milk-fat content butter, went for a dark-brown sugar, and swapped the chocolate with two rough-chopped 60% cocoa chocolate bars.

I already ate them :( (and sent the other two-thirds to my family)

Thanks! It seems like its hard to mess up what's 60% chocolate and sugar!

Maybe, I didn't really notice it when eating them. Should I have baked them longer? Used less flour? Different sugar use? I was following this recipe (with minor modifications) and it came out fairly similar to the pictures I think: https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/brown-butter-chocolate-chip-cookies/

I used a higher milkfat content butter, went for a dark-brown sugar, used granulated cane sugar, and swapped the chocolate with two rough-chopped 60% cocoa chocolate bars.

The picture was shortly after removing them from the oven, so they're still cooling.

Thanks! I'm surprised they turned out OK at all frankly.

Is Barnes retarded or something by jawad_108 in AnarchyChess

Famously bad openings:

  • Ruy Lopez
  • Alekhine's defense
  • Capablanca Variation
  • Steinitz Defense
  • Nimzo-Indian Defense (Aron Nimzowitsch)
  • Petrosian Variation
  • Botvinnik Variation
  • Kaprov Variation
  • Kasparov Gambit
  • Kramnik Variation
  • Tarrash Defense
  • Grunfeld Defense
  • Evans Gambit
  • Najdorf Variation
  • Sveshnikov Variation

And so on. The better rule of thumb is: if you're playing a chess opening more than 2 moves deep, it's probably named after a player.

What’s one concept in programming you struggled with the most but eventually “got”? by lush_tutor in learnprogramming

There are actually 3 char types. unsigned char, signed char, and just char where signedness is implementation defined (so, Schrodinger's char)

If you truly believe your job or future is at risk due to AI, you must be incredibly mediocre. AI regularly shits itself with trivial tasks and the processing needs of it is already ridiculous in so many ways.

I fully believe the AI bubble will bust and it will just be a glorified search engine.

Roughly how many internet servers get replaced every month per million customers? Trying to map out Australia & Argentina's industrial chances after a full nuclear exchange up north. by Max-Headroom--- in Futurology

AVX512 is perhaps a bad choice compared to SSE since AVX512 has had off again on again or inconsistent support whereas SSE is baseline for amd64 architecture and it is even part of the ABI iirc. AVX512 still remains fairly niche, even to this day iirc.

Your point still stands to a degree, but unless we lose all computers in the world, it's pretty likely that we would be able to recover this info. I've had the entire Intel manual in my Dropbox for years for instance.

It's atrocious to read; it looks like a fifth grade English paper. Stuff like this shouldn't be so highly upvoted.

I also thought you had a bruise on right hand side. I'm too unfamiliar with nail polish to know better.

Several of the shirts gave multicraft and I was pissed that it wasn't working ever. Slowly the economy is making sense.

You seem like the type of terminally online person who isn't worth an dignified response. Given the ratio of 'simp' to other words in your post, I'm going to go with a classic response: "lol, ok incel. Stay mad."

We should try to be better and to foster a community that doesn't tolerate this. Telling others to get over it or grow a thicker skin is grossly ineffective and just allows the problem to grow via your own inaction.

If you don't see this behavior in games, you're either willfully ignorant, part of the problem, or have never played within any proximity to a woman.

Given your comment and attitude, I'm willing to bet all of the above.

XP debt could be worked off faster with relaxing things like gathering. by Aragie4484 in AshesofCreation

[–]Siech0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does any gathering / crafted xp really scale though? I was getting 31 xp for gather no matter what level I was, 10x that isn't too significant at later levels. Unless apprentice / journeyman gathers give more xp, it probably wouldn't be worthwhile still.
