Ah, the #classic 🤦 "we discovered something obvious and decided to blog about it" trope. Apparently, #regex engines have been lying to us for decades, promising #speed but delivering #molasses 🐢. Who knew a computer science relic from the '70s would be today's tech bloggers' favorite bandwagon? 🎉

finding all regex matches has always been O(n²). even in the engines built to prevent it | ian erik varatalu

every regex engine that promises linear time breaks that promise the moment you ask for all matches. the problem has been there since the 70s, hiding in the iteration loop.

I figured out a way to hold the stupid molasses jug over the kettle while it takes forever to drain. I'll be fermenting this with wild yeast I captured from some flowers I picked in The Bahamas.

Brewing With Sugar by K. Florian Kemp

“The many shades and flavors of sugars are dependent upon their botanical origin, method of production, and degree of refinement.”

(The discussion of flavours and texture may be of interest to bakers as well.)

Brewing With Sugar - All About Beer

Those first few months of craft beer epiphany are heady indeed, filled with moment after moment of wide-eyed revelation.

Trying something new. #coffee #molasses #nespresso

Did a little experiment today.

Bought "Cooking Molasses" by mistake a while ago. Surprisingly robust flavour. Not pleasant straight out of the container. Ruined the pancakes a few months ago.

Made Soft Molasses Cookies this evening with the cooking molasses.
Turned out really, really good! They are the best molasses cookies I've ever made. No contest.

Apparently that's why it's called cooking molasses.😁 Probably will never be able to find it again.
