I am sorry to be so harsh, but this guide will not teach you anything about cooking, nor will it be of any particular relevance to founders [^].
The blog post is a 3,500 word advertisement to Amazon affiliation links. A selection of "helpful" advice given in the post:
- How to chop food? "Just search them on YouTube"
- "When you are first learning to cook I recommend avoiding complex recipes"
- "Get cooking"
Finally: "The goal of this post is [..] to provide fairly comprehensive [..] roadmap for going from a cooking noob to solid home chef." Sorry. This is not it.
[^] Alternatively, the title might be interpreted to mean "Cooking for founders [who are visiting you]". This is also not the case.
- tylertringas 6y agoAlways appreciate these thoughtful critiques on HN :)
- awillen 6y ago100% agree. If you read this entire thing, you don't end up with anything close to the skills needed to cook a meal. You could watch a five minute cooking tutorial or just make a simple recipe instead, and then you'd have something to show for it, plus you'd have learned something about cooking.
