Terrifying thought, but unrealistic.
- You wouldn’t be transferring that large a vessel with boiling water in it for any reason in a real kitchen
- Every kitchen grip mats on the floor
- Women can’t be chefs. Duh.
You also going to make videos about them driving and voting now? WTF.

Waste of time.
Chefs do this day in and out without a machine. Get good.
It’s a repetitive motion that takes skill for fucks sake.

Literally a lot of the show linked above. Almost the exact conversation happens. I just posted the two quick links I found.

This is like a 10m video extrapolated with annoying narrative for 90m. Fucking insane.

It’s like a direct ripoff of ‘Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell’, but not funny.

It’s not at all. It’s obvious you didn’t watch it. The guy goes deep in on topics and looks at counterpoints to discuss the merits of whatever gets brought up.
You’re just lazy AF 🤣

It’s called OnePackage
- Comment on Linus Torvalds on why desktop Linux sucks 4 weeks ago:
This is much older than the posted date, so the terrain was way different, and the ecosystem was way different.
Caveat: I worked on the packaging projects he is discussing.
-
His whole thing was wanting to package things much more like MacOS at the time. It was pretty foolproof from a user’s perspective, but terrible for developers.
-
AppImage at the time was essentially the same thing as he was aiming for, but it has some security drawbacks. He hated them. He wanted to be them.
-
Post this talk, Flatpak came out, which is an improvement on the AppImage premise, but has layers, so uses less disk…in theory. He hated it.
-
Once the rise of containers came along, and everyone was (still is) generally using them wrong, he had a fucking meltdown and tried to revive another packaging project which he quickly gave up on.
I mention all of this to say: don’t just listen to what he’s saying and take it at face value. Sure, he’s a legend, but he’s just a developer. He wants the unattainable technical solution just like every other developer. There is no ONE right answer here, and things now are way better than when this was recorded maybe 10 years ago. WAY better.
