No more recipes from cookbooks. Those are "design patterns" from a book on "nutritional design patterns."
I take it back, everything is a design pattern now. I see the light.
- mcphage 6y agoHow big is that chip on your shoulder?
- neonological 6y agoBig enough to meet up with you and talk about it face to face. Why don't we exchange contact information and meet rather then post off topic stuff that violates the rules of HN.
- mcphage 6y agoGood idea, you sound like a really fun person to spend time with.
- neonological 6y agoLook, Mark, I'm not too far from Buffalo so I can totally visit you and we can have some fun. We should take this discussion offline or end it here because I don't want to continue violating the rules with some off tangent discussion. Either way, be seeing you buddy, it's been a while.
- dang 6y agoWhoa, this is not ok. Please don't post like this. HN is for curious, respectful conversation—if your curiosity or respect levels drop below basic minima, please don't post until they recover. Escalating into personal attack (as you did downthread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26382222 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26382222) will get you banned here, so please don't do that either. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

- neonological 6y agoSee, Mark, I told you this was a violation of of the rules. We'll talk soon.
- djur 6y agoDesign patterns aren't recipes, they're common applications of techniques. The use of gelatinized starch as a thickener for sauces (i.e. a roux) could be considered a "cooking pattern".
- neonological 6y agoEvery variable in a cooking recipe can be substituted and modified making a recipe a technique that is applicable to different sets of materials and conditions.
