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

@evan what a question! Of course
This post is deleted! -
@DavidBHimself what if it's not your culture?
If you plan to resell it as your own restaurant that argument may apply.
But from the question itself I wasn’t able to deduce that grandma had shotgun hands

Its culture apropiation in a bad way if there is intention to profit from said culture.
Its ok for you to make the spiciest curry for yourself and your family.
Its bad in the case of “now I am gona make the best mexican burritos restaurant”

@gabboman @DavidBHimself what about the grandmother and the shotgun hands? Is that a reference I don't recognize?

Yeah its a reference to hypotheticals within hypoteticals.
“What if…” “yeah fair but what if also…”

#I-think-it-was-chainsaws #but-I-forgot-how-to-write-that-word@gabboman @DavidBHimself ah, that makes sense. I think the question encompasses both domestic and foreign restaurants, but I understand if you think that's a trick.

@evan In my perception of words, yes.
Asking might give you the correct recipe in a very short time, and this is definitely somehow with communication.
Reversing it might take ages, can be done all alone (given an unlimited supply to compare to), and probably will yield several other revelations, perhaps even new recipes, and definitely a very deep connection to the subject.
It's a bit like using HI (human intelligence) vs. using your PI (personal intelligence). :)
@jesterchen So, here's a thought: is there a difference between reverse engineering without asking for the recipe, and reverse engineering after asking for the recipe and being told no?

@DavidBHimself what if it's not your culture?
@evan It's someone else's culture that they shared with you to experience and of course you're allowed to try to recreate the experience at home.

@DavidBHimself is it possible that sharing to experience and sharing to replicate are two different kinds of sharing? And if so, that some cultures or individuals might offer one but not the other?
And could relative power dynamics come into play? If it's a relationship between French customers and refugee restauranteurs from a former colony, for example? Or between Israeli customers and Palestinian cooks?
What about consent? What if you asked for the recipe, and the restauranteur refused?

@evan I voted "yes, but" on the grounds that reverse engineering how the dishes are so good may cause you to learn things you did not want to know about their preparation, like (allegedly) just how much butter goes into any number of them. Ignorance can be bliss, or lead to blissful continued consumption of restaurant dishes.
But maybe you wanted to know anyway. Reverse engineer away.
@cks this is a really good point!

@virtuous_sloth @evan abd yet everyone accepts it as normal for other areas!! It never makes sense to me
@lizzard @virtuous_sloth do you have any family recipes?

Assistive Radio Tells You What You Can’t See
We think of radios as audio devices, but for people who are visually impaired, it can be difficult to tell which channel you are listening to at any given time. [Sncarter] has a family member with vision impairment and built a radio to help her. Unfortunately, it was difficult to replicate, so he decided to try again. The result is an FM radio that provides audible status notifications about power and frequency. Check it out in the video below.
This isn’t just some hacked-up commercial radio, but a ground-up design that uses a TEA5767 with an ATMega328 for control. There is an LCD for when someone else might use the radio and an audio amplifier. He built the prototype on a breadboard, but moved the finished product to a PCB.
It isn’t just the electronics and the sound that are assistive. The case has raised bosses to help the user find things like the switch and rotary encoder. The Arduino can speak frequency announcements, although the quality of the voice is something he wants to tackle in the next revision.
These radios on a chip give you many design options. These same ideas can be useful for audiobook players, too.

Com groups: come un moderatore è finito dietro le sbarre
@informatica
Nel sottobosco digitale di Telegram, dove l’anonimato e la crittografia offrono un rifugio apparentemente sicuro, si annidano comunità criminali sempre più strutturate e spietate. Una di queste, un “Com group” dedicato allo sfruttamento sessuale di minori, è finita nel mirino della National Crime

⛪ Tabernacle Baptist Church. Somewhere in the USA. Built around 1905. Abandoned when the congregation relocated to another church, as the roof began to buckle and collapse.

@amin @kommadieb good point! So, here's another one: is it ok to share it publicly, like in a blog post? Or privately with friends and family?
-
@amin @kommadieb but you just put a qualifier on it!
