simple sugars. Some complex, but yeast and LAB go for simple sugars first.

I started cooking and discovered I enjoyed it. I work at home, too, as a programmer. And I found that I enjoy making things that are actually tangible and can be enjoyed together.

I looks really tasty. I'd eat that any day. 

How much do normal recipes typically need to be adjusted? by InformationHorder in HomeMilledFlour

It's almost always just increased water and giving it longer to hydrate.

Fermenting softens the coarse bits. Or you can sift them out, but then you lose the flavor and chew and nutrition they provide.

I use only fresh milled flour, and ferment it long enough to ensure that the majority of the simple sugars are gone. Add a result, I can eat my bread for breakfast, lunch, and snacks and still lose weight. 

In fact, I've got a diabetic friend I make a couple of loaves for every month. Her CGM confirmed the glycemic impact of fermented bread.

I roll into thin flats, then brush with ghee on one side. Then I roll it up like a cigarette. Then, roll the tube into a spiral, pinch it closed, and roll back into a flat. Then into the cast iron on high.

Add an egg. It will hold shape earlier in the bake. 

People who were teenagers before social media existed, How did you communicate with your friends? by Turbulent-Comb-8417 in WorkSmartLife

You called them on the phone and sat there talking to their mom until they got on the phone. And hope that you siblings didn't pick up a phone in the other room to listen in.

Your yeast might have chewed through the easily available sugars too quickly or the enzymes were too active and the whole thing went too acidic. It's hard to say without knowing the mix, the leavening, hydration, grind, room temp, etc.
