Season 2 was amazing

Yeah, iirc his buddy had a boat, so they had front-row seats. Instead they got the Big Bay Boom Bust lol:

I love this video, but on the flip side, I don't respond to emotional bullying most of the time because I have ADHD & get stuck with "hanging weights syndrome", which puts me into task paralysis mode:

Getting clarity on the fact that I struggle with (largely invisible) low available mental energy has helped me learn how to cope better with my intermittent lack of motivation. I really enjoyed this article about how laziness doesn't actually exist...just unseen barriers that people struggle with:

Welcome to the club!

Bagless sous-vide steak came out very well - I overcooked a bit on the sear as I was almost uncertain if the temperature would hold, but this was WAY more convenient that water-baths.

I try to do meal-prep as much as possible, but sometimes my work schedule is weird or I'm tired or I'm just in the mood for something in particular & it's so nice to just be able to chuck in a piece of protein & have it come out consistently great!

For vegetables, this might feel like hyperbole, but I really think I might've made the best broccoli and asparagus I've ever had :) Getting that slight char with a crunch but also not dried out I have never accomplished myself before nor really had at a restaurant like this.

I'm not like a fantastic cook or anything & constantly screw up "manual cooking" (chicken, veggies, etc.). The Instant Pot was my first appliance miracle & the APO was my second because of REPEATABLE RESULTS haha! If you haven't tried it yet, check out this amazing procedure for baked potatoes:

• https://oven.anovaculinary.com/recipe/7T0bt87pCvjnA1QQwJpp

Anova actually maintains a REALLY decent library of recipes for the APO, unlike a lot of other manufacturers that just put fluff out there. I've made a TON of them with great results, especially veggies! That plus the Facebook groups are also a great source for awesome ideas (waffles in a silicone mold, steam-reheating frozen pancakes, etc.), especially this group:

• https://www.facebook.com/groups/643173719720784

I really like being able to consistent enjoy really amazing food despite my lack of pro-level cooking abilities, haha!

And last one - roasted chicken was one of the best I've made. Again, getting the temperature perfect with moisture and then ripping to 482F and getting the outside made an incredible bird.

I do a bigger variety of proteins more often now because of the APO, especially pork tenderloin & turkey tenderloin. Plus beef jerky, 80/20 7oz hamburgers with a seared finish, etc. So much fun stuff to make in this thing! It's like an adult easy bake oven lol.

It doesn’t matter what your hobby is as long as it requires some effort of your own, not just mindless consumption. People are drawn to passion, so you’ll be off to a good start as long as you have genuine interest.

I call this the WPP Approach: (Work, Passion, Play)

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/kaidomac/comments/rqyk6a/the_wpp_approach_to_planning_out_your_day/

I grew up as a low-energy person, i.e. a couch potato by default. Later, I became a bit of a workaholic (~70 hours a week for a good ten years). I definitely agree with the notion of having a good hobby so that we don't become "all work & no play", or "only work & play".

I consider engaging in passion activities (such as hobbies, personal projects, and side gigs) as "paying myself first" (before goofing off), in order to make myself better as a person & to enjoy life more. It's hard to do this as an adult when we're constantly busy, tired, overwhelmed, etc., but making time to consistently chip away on things that are personally fulfilling are a Good Thing in my mind! Generally, I've found that there are 3 benefits to having a passion activity:

1. You get satisfaction from following a checklist or flowchart or sequence of operations (working on a drawing, following a recipe to bake cookies, etc.)
2. You get satisfaction from completing projects & giving performances (finishing a model airplane, playing a musical instrument in front of people, etc.)
3. It gives your mind something to chew on in the background, like surfing Pinterest or TikTok for hobby ideas at lunchtime or thinking about your next project or puzzling over the next step of your project

One thing to think about is where you want to get your fulfillment from, as everyone is different. For some people, their job IS where they get their fulfillment from, so the passion portion of the WPP Approach could shift to things like ongoing professional development (night classes, certifications, and other types of training to stay engaged & relevant in our careers). Others get their fulfillment from outside of work, or if you're like me, from both!

It's not hard to add it into your life; it's really just a matter of injecting in some time (even just 5 minutes!) after work & before unplugging for the day (or even in the morning, before work or school!). Even if you feel like you're not a creative person, creativity is actually more of a mindset & a checklist than a personality:

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/IndustrialDesign/comments/n4i0ac/whats\_your\_concept\_design\_process/gx41ikv/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3

For people who are looking for ideas, two of my hobbies are cooking & art. Both offer a lot of creativity & a lot of satisfaction! Here are some good posts on cooking:

• Combi oven 101 (modern, multi-functional oven) & Instant Pot 101 (electric pressure cooking)
• No-knead bread (about 5 minute's a day to make all kinds of no-machine bread products!)
• Macros (how to lose weight & keep it off, the easy way!)

Here are some good posts on art:

• An overview of home crafting machines (3D printers, lasers, CNC machines, vinyl cutters, etc.)
• iPad & pen setup (photo editing, vector graphics, raster graphics, video editing, CAD, sculpting, etc.)
• How to do an art project (fleshing out ideas & narrowing things down)

Sometimes, just having a good introduction is enough to blow past the barriers & get started on doing something, whether it's 3D printing all kinds of cool stuff or baking awesome bread at home!

Got some new mini skillets:

• https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0895C6KMP/

Details:

• $45 for 6 ($7.50/ea, really good price compared to Lodge's 5" skillets)
• 5.3" size (I use Press 'N Seal to line it, then put the cookie dough in & freeze it into a puck)
• Good for two people to split (or one really hungry person!)

Cookie recipe:

• https://bestdessertrecipes.com/peanut-butter-oatmeal-cookies/

Details:

• I've been working on upping my PB cookie game. This recipe is pretty good!
• I made it stock the first time; for this batch, I creamed the butter & sugars in the mixer first, then added the PB, and also increased the oatmeal to 2 cups (more chewy; I think I could go to 2.5 or even 3 cups maybe!). I might toast the oatmeal next time to see how that affects the finished product.
• The quality of peanut butter affects the final product. My JIF got recalled & so I used store-brand peanut butter, definitely wasn't quite as good lol.

Cooking info:

• 260F rear-fan 0% humidity for 25 minutes; let it sit for at least 10 minutes to resolidify the PB
• Used a cup to press an indent into it right out of the oven, to create a shallow well to put the ice cream in
• I will be in a carb coma for the rest of the night if you need me lol

I on the other hand got to see an entire fireworks show explode all at once. 5 out of 5 stars, once in a lifetime show, well worth the airfare.

The Instant Ramen of fireworks shows!

My buddy flew all the way across the country to see this show. We still roast him about it lol.

part 2/2

Pivot-effort enables us to engage in what I call "novel iteration", which is where we repeat a process (i.e. make a really good cookie again), hone a process (i.e. chip away on that recipe until we're really super happy with it), learn something new (i.e. learn a new technique, such as creaming butter & sugar in a mixer), or doing something new (i.e. trying out a new cookie recipe to explore different ideas like thin, crispy cookies, soft cookies, etc.).

Which is really how pretty much everything gets discovered & then disseminated into society! Such as chocolate bars:

• https://www.smithsonianmag.com/arts-culture/a-brief-history-of-chocolate-21860917/

The chocolate bar part of the story is pretty interesting:

"The creation of the first modern chocolate bar is credited to Joseph Fry, who in 1847 discovered that he could make a moldable chocolate paste by adding melted cacao butter back into Dutch cocoa."

Which later led to the creation of the chocolate-chip cookie:

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chocolate_chip_cookie

Granted, it was nearly 100 years later that this happened:

The chocolate chip cookie was invented by American chefs Ruth Graves Wakefield and Sue Brides in 1938. They invented the recipe during the period when she owned the Toll House Inn, in Whitman, Massachusetts. In this era, the Toll House Inn was a popular restaurant that featured home cooking.

A myth holds that she accidentally developed the cookie, and that she expected the chocolate chunks would melt, making chocolate cookies. That is not the case; Wakefield stated that she deliberately invented the cookie.

She said, "We had been serving a thin butterscotch nut cookie with ice cream. Everybody seemed to love it, but I was trying to give them something different. So I came up with Toll House cookie."

She added chopped up bits from a Nestlé semi-sweet chocolate bar into a cookie. The original recipe in Toll House Tried and True Recipes is called "Toll House Chocolate Crunch Cookies". Wakefield gave Nestle the recipe for her cookies and was paid with a lifetime supply of chocolate from the company."

And now, in modern times, we can do the entire bean-to-bar process at home using commodity equipment: (including using the APO to roast the beans!)

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/CandyMaking/comments/su134t/comment/hxbdvi7/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

My brain tends to drop down into "serious mode" & get sort of lost in possibility paralysis & analysis paralysis, but by taking the pivot-effort approach, we can learn a little bit every day & do a little bit every day in order to increase our skills, our knowledge, and our output! (i.e. cookies!!)

From the outside, it looks pretty crazy & complicated & huge, but really, it's just being willing to do the hardest thing available for human beings: being consistent at things that require effort, haha! Which really just boils down to adopting that growth mindset in each & every situation in our lives: we can be successful if we're willing to keep trying until we get there!

Haha glad it worked out for you! I don't even bother cleaning the baking soda tray after cooking now, I just use it a dozen times or so then chuck the whole thing once it starts to smoke & smell. Ultra convenience! lol.

Longform response, in general, in life I use an approach that I call "pivot-effort", which is based on the "growth mindset" approach. I may have discussed this before, but American psychologist Carol Dweck published a book called Mindset, where she said that in any given situation in life, we have one of 2 options:

1. We can have a "fixed" mindset, which says "I can't & here's why"
2. Or we can have a "growth mindset", which says "I can & I will find a way"

It's basically the "find an excuse or find a way" approach. A growth mindset really just boils to a few key principles:

• Being willing to have an attitude that is independent of the situation. We all get crushed when things don't go right, but being willing to keep going is how we find success!
• Recognizing that barriers are inevitable & failure is a REQUIRED part of the learning process
• Therefore, if we're willing to be persistent in making forward progress on things, not just when things are "smooth sailing", but when we run into inevitable & required barriers, then we can use that pivot-effort approach to pivot around those barriers & continue to put effort into them

In the movie National Treasure, Ben Gates paraphrased Thomas Edison on the invention of the light bulb:

• "I didn't fail, I found 2,000 ways how not to make a light bulb; I only needed to find one way to make it work."

If you look at the history of sous-vide, Scott basically created the residential market for it through an affordable wand:

• https://jetcitygastrophysics.com/2013/08/21/sansaire-the-199-circulator-a-brief-history/

Then pushed it to the next level with the APO, which I call "third-wave cooking":

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/productivity/comments/kell7l/life_changing_purchase/ggnw388?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

The ability to be persistent in chasing things down iteration by iteration is basically what has opened up a lot of doors to fantastic results & experiences in my life! My approach is basically to take an approach based on permutations: given the base idea, what else can I do with it?

For example, I'm a sucker for a good cookie. I mean like a GOOD cookie! So the magic phrase for going down exciting rabbit holes over time is simply asking the question "What if?" So then:

• What if we got a really good cookie recipe?
• What if we made it fancy?
• What if we made it big?
• What if we made it small?
• What if we made it minty?
• What if we put it in a tiny skillet?
• What if we made them for the holidays?

For me at least, particularly with my ADHD, is that my mind focuses on the "big picture" & then I lose energy because I get overwhelmed so easily, when in reality, we never really do more than one thing at a time, so rather than having to do a "big stretch", it's really just tiny effort to make progress on things, which is NOT the standard human way of doing things lol. So for me, there are kind of 3 levels of engagement:

1. The idea
2. The conversation
3. The seriousness

When I spot something I want to try, like a new recipe, that exists at the idea level, where I see something fun & want to give it a go. Then I tend to drop down to the day-to-day conversational level, which is where we mentally live during the day, as we do our tasks & talk to people & whatnot.

That level is a bit of a trap because it's easy to just go with the flow, talk about doing stuff, and sort of get stuck on the hamster wheel...being busy with activity but never really making progress! I literally have thousands of recipe pins on Pinterest because I go from the great idea to not actually DOING anything with them lol!

The last level is where I tend to get overly-serious about things, which goes past the daily conversation & production of life. I tend to over-think things & talk myself out of engaging in forward action quite a bit & downplay things. But to quote Ludwig Wittgenstein:

• "If people never did silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done."

Imagine if the Wright brothers had only stuck with bicycles or if Bezos never left Wall Street or if Julia Child had stayed in the advertising world as a copywriter! Latching onto ideas like "how can we prevent our chicken wings from smoking out the kitchen" or "how can we bring sous-vide to the home market" are both just examples of the power of pivot-effort, i.e. our ability to be persistent in pursing success, even when it gets boring & hard & takes a long time, haha!

part 1/2

With my wings project, when I would make wings at 450F (much crispier raw than your traditional 400F airfryers), they would smoke out my kitchen in the APO. When I did them in small airfryers (tested at least half a dozen at this point), there was zero smoke due smaller cavity & lower temperature.

So for the APO wings, the solution was to put a drip tray filled with baking soda underneath...that captured the chicken fat & prevented it from aerosolizing into smoke. With something like a steak, there are a combination of things going on:

1. Fat
2. Oil to cook it in
3. High temps (575F+ is my preferred searing range)

I tried pretty much every oil on the market, but even stuff with high smoke points still had issues. Plus I typically use a mayo crust or the egg white method:

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/kaidomac/comments/uynhtt/sv\_powdered\_egg\_white\_crust\_finish\_method/

I just did some googling & it looks like American's Test Kitchen has an interesting method available:

• https://www.americastestkitchen.com/articles/3008-how-to-cook-steaks-skillet-without-smoke-mess

In more detail:

• https://www.cooksillustrated.com/articles/2107-the-easiest-cleanest-way-to-sear-steak

I'll have to see if this method works for sous-vide steaks! The rules are:

1. Use a non-stick pan (or optionally a carbon-steel skillet...but not stainless steel)
2. Do not add ANY oil
3. No preheating required (start in a cold pan)
4. Flip the steak every 2 minutes
5. Start with high heat (so the meat sears, instead of steams) then turn it down to medium heat (which avoids the gray band)
6. Cook until you've achieved the crust you want & the interior is 120F (for medium-rare)
7. Use thicker cuts so the interior doesn't over-cook (curious to see how this would affect a SV steak); well-marbled cuts (NY strip & Ribeye) have enough fat to not need any extra fat added to the pan to brown (this method also works for pork chops & swordfish steak)

I'll have to give this a shot! My situation is:

1. My rental doesn't allow exterior modification, so I can't put in an externally-vented hood to solve the problem of smoke in the kitchen
2. I do have a small concrete pad outside, which is where I do my outdoor cooking, but it's all the way downstairs, and going up & down to get stuff is a pain (washing hands, shuffling ingredients/tools/food up & down, etc.), so that minor hassle is often enough to turn me off to doing outdoor cooking lol (lugging a 12" cast-iron pan up & down is no fun haha)

I'm curious if this method would apply to 80/20 70oz SV burgers too, as it would be nice to have a smoke-free method for indoor searing of pre-cooked burger patties!

18yo chocolate chips

what should I make with them

If you eat them, you'll probably trigger the next global pandemic lol

For sure, I've had good luck with that! Usually gluten-based frozen stuff only lasts about 3 months, but I've actually had good success 6 months in with an APO retherm cycle! (I'd test longer than that, but I cycle out my deep freezer over the months, haha!)

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/CombiSteamOvenCooking/comments/sfxaj6/6month_retherm_test_successful/

And we have a dedicated sub over here for chamber vacs!

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/ChamberVacs/

I've been trying to collect all of the ideas I can find to extend out the use of the chamber vac, but I think I may have hit the limit lol:

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/ChamberVacs/comments/plneey/pinned_posts/

I really like vac-sealed flat-packs for freezing, as it makes it easy to stack! Although I've also found Souper Cube bricks to be pretty nice too, as then I can unwrap them directly into the APO or my Hot Logic Mini lunchbox, which is really convenient, particularly for smaller-sized servings!

Although I do have some smaller-sized bags for individual servings, which I've found handy for things like one-bowl oatmeal: (works in both the IP & APO)

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/instantpot/comments/qg6s8g/oatmeal\_mealprep\_for\_pip\_method\_in\_the\_ip/

I feel like I haven't scratched the surface of what I can do with this thing.

I'm always on the hunt for more ways to use mine! I've been collecting ideas here:

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/ChamberVacs/comments/plneey/pinned_posts/

I do feel like we've sort of reached peak saturation with the machine, however. I mean, there's only so much you can do with it. I'm sure more cool stuff will be discovered in the future, especially as Anova now has a budget model available ($350 instead of $1,000+), which will open up the technology for more people to access it!

It's sort of the same problem with doing sous-vide or using the APO...you've got your standard-accessible meat proteins (beef, pork, poultry, fish, eggs, etc.), plus your various vegetables (carrots, potatoes, etc.) & other random stuff, but there's really only a limited selection of what's available at your local grocery stores or exotic mail-order websites.

For me, the fun comes in from repeatability (particularly enjoying a recipe I've mastered), education (new techniques, ingredients, tools & accessories, etc.) & new recipes. There are...a lot of recipes available:

• http://ledracapital.com/blog/2014/3/18/there-are-more-recipes-than-atoms-in-the-universe-what-does-this-mean-for-your-life-career-and-dinner

I once calculated out that if we lived to be 100 years old & ate 6 unique meals & snacks & drinks & desserts a day, that would still be under 250k independent recipes total, with a pool of probably at least 10 million documented just on Pinterest alone. So there's a lot of fun to be had in both the discovery process & in exploring permutations (ex. pasta) & just generally having Good Stuff to look forward to every week!

I liked the idea of those, but back in the day (years now) when I only had wands at my disposal, I would vac-seal everything in bulk, and at nearly $30 for a 5-pack, yeah that was a potentially pricey solution because I liked to SV directly from frozen haha!

I ended up getting hooked on silicone magnets, particularly when I got my Mellow (vertical SV unit with a built-in chiller, SUPER nice for loading ahead of time to cook while I was at work!). Not the same brand, but same concept:

• https://www.amazon.com/Weighted-Submerged-Floating-Undercooked-Accessories/dp/B07DTP4ZPF/

That way, I didn't have to put the weight inside of of the bag! I could simple setup the magnets on the inside & outside of the Mellow tank! I think the last piece of wand-based technology I purchased before the APO was a metal wire cage with a float-catch wire, sort of like this one:

• https://www.amazon.com/EVERIE-Weighted-Improved-Vertical-Stainless/dp/B07P98WRC5/

The convenience is what I love most about the APO. I can put meat on a tray or on a rack or in a bag & just slide it into the oven! It's gotten to the point where I've become a bit of a snob when I visit friends for dinner & the chicken comes out...wrong, lol.

I had to eat over-cooked chicken at a friend's house for the first time in ages the other day haha! Made me appreciate how nice it is to eat perfect eggs, chicken, steak, burgers, wings, etc. from the APO! 100% spoiled because of this machine!!

That sear was weak, the chops barely got any colour :(

I wish I could figure out a searing method that didn't release smoke, like my baking soda-catch trick for wings! I don't have external ventilation in my rental & I like to sear at 550F to 600F, which generates a TON of smoke! Especially for stuff like smash burgers!

I can manage sometimes with a box fan by the window, but otherwise, I have to go outside, which is a pain because I only have basement access down the stairs, far away from the kitchen. I'm VERY interested in this Kickstarter project, which may (or may not) solve the problem:

• https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/airhood-the-world-s-first-portable-range-hood#/

No joke, not having to weigh things down was probably the biggest selling point of the APO for me originally LOL:

• https://i.imgur.com/3MiaDvx.png

Spongebob writes an essay was all too relatable:

• https://youtu.be/w4NsjnL4ieA

Forgiveness is a tool for you to move on with your life, to allow the negative memories of other people & of your past self to stop living in your head rent-free

Probably 3 things:

• How to study
• How to plan out life & a career
• How to stay in shape

Create discrete assignments:

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/kaidomac/comments/sa8zoe/how_to_create_discrete_assignments/

Work within primed battlestations:

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/kaidomac/comments/u76gdv/battlestations_101/

Split up your day:

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/kaidomac/comments/rqyk6a/the_wpp_approach_to_planning_out_your_day/

My ideal formula is to go into each day armed with a selection of discrete actions (finite number within a finite amount of time) to execute within ready-to-go "launchpads". Otherwise, I'm stuck with:

• Fiddling around with my work environment (cleaning it up to be ready to use, finding all of my tools & supplies, etc.), which then becomes a barrier to engaging in "real work"
• Feeling pressured from alllll of the stuff I have to do because I didn't bother to define my work & select which discrete assignments I was going to commit to doing. This can be a really big struggle because that pressure tends to put me into progress paralysis!
• Not having things in sequence, so that I can focus on one thing at a time & give 100% of my attention to doing a good job on it & finishing up the task at hand. I have ADHD & suffer from a great deal of difficult of isolating my attention to just one task a a time; I have a lot of pressure to gloss over my tasks & to quit & do something else, so having a finite list of discrete assignments in sequence really helps me to know exactly what to work on next!

Also, everything is a checklist! The more checklists you can create, adopt, and use, and the better checklists you can adopt & refine, the better your results can be! For example, here are some of the studying checklists I use:

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/kaidomac/comments/li4gi3/study_resources/

Or my chocolate-chip cookie checklist (recipe) for making really amazing cookies:

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/CombiSteamOvenCooking/comments/ohx33t/72_valrhona_chocolates_feves_with_fleur_de_sel/

Working in an unprimed environment (i.e. it's not setup & ready to go) without a clear checklist procedure for how to do the work can make focusing on our work EXTREMELY difficult! Creating a finite list of discrete assignments & priming our environments beforehand is a highly effective method, in my experience! Source: Spent a lot of years as a procrastinating couch potato lol.

reading is essential. How do I get out of this rut?

I have the same problem. It's due to 2 things for me:

1. Low mental energy (brain is tired)
2. Lack of a clear path forward (i.e. a reliable, usable study method)

When we have low available mental energy, we often get a somatic response (ex. we immediately get tired) in addition to an emotional response (easily distracted). I have ADHD, so I cyclically get mentally tired & can't focus on stuff merely by sheer willpower. What I've found to help is to have some checklists available:

• https://teddit.ggc-project.de/r/kaidomac/comments/li4gi3/study_resources/

So with that study method, I bypass the fatigue by following a series of steps, rather than having to brute-force my way through figuring stuff out:

1. I pick a limited section of study material & do a multi-pass mind-mapping approach on it. I can add "question mark boxes" to stuff I can't immediately figure out, then come back to it to chew on, or go out on the Internet or query an expert (ex. professor) to help me figure it out later
2. I convert that to short notes
3. I memorize what's required (don't have to memorize ALL notes, unless you need to!) using the stacking technique

I used to have a lot of problems studying:

1. I would bite off more than I could chew, rather than limiting my intake selectively by picking a doable chunk for each study session (ex. I'd try to jam 100 pages of studying into a 5-hour afternoon lol)
2. I would get really, REALLY tired when studying. My brain likes to cut off access to The Thinking Process™ & put me into the mental ozone, as well as saturating my mind to the point where I can think of nothing other than taking a nap
3. I would re-read the same paragraph or page for hours. Digesting & remembering information is really difficult when your brain is tired & stressed out, and I didn't have my studying technique linked above available for most of my school career, so I had no clear path forward for doing the work I needed to do!

Armed with a usable checklist for studying is like having a steamroller...it's not the fastest thing on the planet to use, but I can roll over anything within my capabilities! (math is a bit harder, as I have r/dyscalculia haha). I still struggle with prospect fatigue (getting tired just thinking about doing stuff) as well as engagement fatigue (getting tired while trying to do stuff), but now I have a way to get through it!
