Is it OK to reverse engineer the recipes for restaurant dishes so you can make them at home?

@evan I would say yes, but also: There are ingredients and prep work for a lot of great dishes that only really make sense at if you're feeding a lot of people or if you plan on eating a whole lot of that one thing for awhile.
I've attempted some recipes from favorite restaurants and afterward just been like, "you know what? let's leave this one to the pros"

@lmorchard @evan some dishes are better made at home, some are better made at scale, and some need adaptions to function on either scenario.
But morality doesn't feature in that, just practicality. Food is life, let's keep copyright out of that.

@evan 100%, no question. There's a long history of recipes being in the commons. Even when written down, they're not eligible for copyright protection.

@evan is this a post about IP law and enshittification?

@evan recipes are not copyrighted

@devlord no, it's about recipes and restaurants.

@evan recipes are not copyrighted
@liilliil are there things that are unrelated to copyright that are still not OK?

@lizzard @lmorchard so, just wondering: why is everyone so hung up on copyright? The question doesn't ask about copyright at all.

@swelljoe so, is it possible for something to be unrelated to copyright and still not OK?
-
@evan I don't think there is even copyright protection for recipes, at least in the EU, and I would suspect everywhere else too.
@micke is it possible for something to be acceptable within copyright law and yet still not OK to do?
-
@evan Why would mixing a particular combination of food ingredients in a particular order ever be immoral just because someone else mixed the same combination in the same order previously? That would be some magical incantation!
@virtuous_sloth why indeed! Did you come up with any ideas.

@evan of course. But, copyright was a secondary piece of evidence for my assertion about recipes, not the primary one. Copyright cannot be claimed on a recipe because culturally, recipes were considered in the public domain long before copyright existed. Humanity throughout history thinks you should be allowed to make nice meals.

@evan I have no need to; I answered yes.

Decided on Slint, after a think on the subject. I've started rewriting, and I guess it won't be terribly painful, but it's going to be at least another week before I can call the thing done.
Seems like a lot just to avoid packaging Qt, but if you think so, you've probably never tried to package Qt (where all deps are bundled, so the user doesn't need to install anything other than the package).

@kenobit Al villaggio Yukumo di MHP3rd, che è per me l'hub più bello della serie.
