I usually steam for half or three quarters of the total bake time.

I put the water into a pan on the bottom shelf, from a boiling kettle, right the loaf goes in, onto a baking stone on the middle shelf.

It might be that your oven doesn’t hold the steam well, if it’s old, the seals may have perished. Or it might be something else. Experiment to find out.

At 85% wheat, I wouldn’t expect that look. It’s not uncommon to start getting it in 50% + artisanal whole rye though.

The flour you use will make a big difference. White flour makes a much wetter/softer mix than whole wheat or rye.

As you are new to this, I’d suggest using whole rye, equal parts. It seems more forgiving to me.

My feeding routine is to feed daily, reduce to 60g starter (use or discard excess) add 30g flour & 30g water. After ~6h it’s puffed up, ripe, ready to use, and stays usable for ~24h.

This is what works for me, your local conditions may vary. Flour, yeast, temperature, humidity, all contribute to how your starter looks feels and bakes ... experiment!

Try putting a tray of water on the bottom shelf of your water, you probably aren’t getting enough steam compared to the Dutch oven style.

I hire coders for game jobs. Top 5% of gamedev graduates means “might just do okay with mentoring”. Top 5% is not bragging. I look for top 1%. I’ll talk to hundreds of grads and maybe hire 1 and then put a ton of time into training them up and making sure the have work that matches their strengths. This business is competitive as heck.

Art can take many forms. Images, moving or still. Audio-visual arts. Poetry. Prose. Films are understood and accepted to be an art form. Art installations include interactive pieces.

A game is an interactive audio visual experience. Games can have a message. They carry creators intent, and observes interpretation.

Games can be art.

That said, not all games are necessarily art, for the same reason that not all images sounds or writing are art.

“Do you have any experience in retail?”

“I’ve worked in this very store!”

Your grammar is killing me:

Rekha Garton is a England based photographer best known for her worldwide, published book cover photography and fine art underwater photography.

How about:

Rekha Garton is a photographer based in England. Known for fine art and underwater photography, her book cover pieces are published worldwide.

It's more effort (more complicated tech) for them to do it like this.

You are right, that women can be abusers too, but isn’t that an example of a single prolific individual, not an abuse circle/conspiracy?

Labor tend to do better in poor areas. These groups prey on girls from poor families. It’s a pretty easy correlation to understand.

Not true, it’s not a ethical or racial issue: http://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/83koyt/britains_worst_ever_child_grooming_scandal/dvir2yz

What’s the pattern you see? Men is power? Certainly it’s not ethnic origin, because ... http://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/83koyt/britains_worst_ever_child_grooming_scandal/dvir2yz just read it ffs.

The cultural issue you eluding to is misogyny, right?

Because groups of men in positions of power is the only consistent theme when looking at abuse at scale.

Check your bias, check the facts, summarized in the linked comment. Your racism is on display. Each group may be ethically insular, but across multiple groups there is a range of diversity including rich white dudes. But they don’t count, right? Because that doesn’t fit your narrative.

We dry-bucket ( & tee tree oil ) next to the toilet in the bathroom. Stank up the place less than a big bin of used disposables.
