> Learn how to master the art of baking the programmer way. If you love programming, you will also enjoy breaking some bread. As a hobbyist sourdough baker and professional software engineer I definitely think there is some truth to this. For me bread baking is a great complementary pursuit to programming. It is entirely manual and rooted in the physical world, which makes it a great way to "unplug" and decompress. But it also requires a similar type of analytical skills and problem solving mindset that developers tend to have. If you are interested in getting into baking sourdough I would highly recommend this blog as a resource: https://www.theperfectloaf.com https://www.theperfectloaf.com The tutorials and recipes are very beginner-friendly and have tons of hi-res photos. I own about 6 books on bread baking but would say this site is probably a better overall resource for a beginner. Interestingly, the author of the site is himself also a software engineer. It definitely shows through in the precision of his recipes :)
