The code for the peeler is stale, it stopped working three carrot seasons ago, but no one wants to rewrite the PeelerBladeRdge class.
Yeah, I can totally sign that. But it is struggle to have so many peelers in drawer. Last addition was new potatoe peeler
No no it’s the pot that’s behind . After you already peeled and chopped .
Unless this is an agile thing
An agile pot?
Will it run from me while I try to put ingredients in it?
Workaround: Potato peeler extends peeler, so just cast your carrots as potatoes before you peel them, and then cast them back to carrot afterwards
Unfortunately, casting from potato to carrot is a narrowing conversion so your new carrot will lose some properties
You say “potato” I say “caroto”
To cast them, it uses libvegs however. It is not available in any standard package libraries, so just quickly build it from source
Yeah but the current build of libvegs has some conflicts with libfruit, so if you need to use both you have to build libvegs in a different directory and then simlink it in /lib.
Yeah but that’s all my replacement’s problem to deal with
Tomato keep being casted as fruit, even that for any practical purpose it should be as vegetable
That’s it, let’s re-write the entire backend in C++ to make use of multiple inheritance to tackle this one use-case!
What do you mean “this is overkill”? Do you have any idea how many tomatoes go into a fucking salad!?
Someone should do it in rust now
Maybe cooking isn’t for me.
If you forget the second step, well, that’s what sweet potatoes are.
Internal screaming.
I hate that I understand this. Well done.
only hobbyists and artisans still use the standalone
carrot.pythat depends onpeeler.in enterprise environments everyone uses the
pymixedveggiespackage (created usingpip freezeof course) which helpfully vendors the latest peeled carrot along with many other things. just unpack it into a clean container and go on your way.I know you’re joking but you basically just suggested buying a pack of frozen mixed veggies so you can pick out and use only the carrots for your stew, and the idea of someone actually doing that sends my brain into a tailspin
So you’re saying pymixxedveggies is bloated?
Do NOT give the carrot industry that idea
Big Carrot is coming for your stew
People make fun of me for preferring C above any other language, but I think I’m the one having the last laugh.
I’m a sysadmin by trade. My hobbies are:
- cooking with nothing but a cast iron pan and a knife I forged after a medieval design
- tinkering on bicycles ('90s MTBs, the golden age of compatibility)
- sewing clothes by hand
- smashing printers with baseball bats

Query: Where is the target meatbag?
smashing printers with baseball bats
I have years of IT experience, offer Linux support, and am visibly the kind of guy you just know can fix your computer problem (or, if I take my glasses off, I look like I sell weed apparently), and when asked to help with printers I have one answer:
They’re sentient and they hate you. I was trained in IT, not exorcisms. Send it as a PDF, PNG, or smoke signal before you try troubleshooting.
Like, I broke my big office one the other day so bad the tech had to come out. What had I done to brick it so badly? Tap a menu option, tap back, then tap a different menu option. If you don’t wait 3s between the second and third tap it errors and freezes and they have to send a tech out to do some sort of 2 hour long ritual where he rubs it and whispers how sorry he is.
What the fuck is wrong with printers
Fun fact: the entire Free Software movement exists because Richard Stallman got pissed off at Xerox one day, for not giving him the source code so he could fix his printer.
And we still don’t have open source printers
People have attached pens to 3d printers and used them to write letters, effectively print. Most consumer 3D printers are useing or based on open source software.
I think the issue is, printers are relatively cheap to buy and replace. So building your own and programming it hasn’t been necessary. Where as 3d printing was completely in accessible before the reprap movement. 3D printing software is open source as it is motivated by people wanting to build their own machines that could build machines. Something you couldn’t easily buy.
Framework printer when?
Framework still don’t have open firmware
I’m a QA director and I also like smashing printers!
You should really try cobol, lisp, ada, or erlang. Dead languages are the best
I know I’m probably rushing into a woosh moment, but I must know - is LISP really a dead language?
It’s my wishful thinking
I just thought it was a speech impediment… 🤷🏻♂️
Hey man, leave the carrot alone.
Why would you peel a carrot?
… is the most upvoted stackoverflow answer.
This is a classic XY problem. My ex would often ask me why I wouldn’t peel carrots.
Depending on the carrot, the skin can be significantly more bitter. And sometimes peeling can be quicker than trying to scrub dirt out of particular lumpy carrots.
YMMV
I tend not to when cooking for myself )unless it’s been in the fridge for a while and the skin is a bit unappealing, no pun intended), but some people prefer carrots peeled for aesthetic reasons.
Just fork peeler from 4.3, rename it to “Skininator 4000” and set up a BuyMeACoffee button.
I really enjoy programming, but generally I dislike cooking. I just want to eat, not spend time preparing to eat.
My experience with cooking has been that because I don’t do it enough, I’m constantly dealing with food expiration dates and having to plan carefully around them.
In comparison, I’ve got some servers that have been running maintenance free for 5+ years. (Probably not the most secure thing, but meh, I don’t have customers other than myself)
I think programmers often have hobbies that are more physical though. For me, I like working on my car because turning bolts and working with my hands lets my brain turn off for a while. I could see cooking and following a recipe being in the same category for others.
Why would you peel carrots? The peel has the healthy bits and it doesn’t bother any dish.
…you understand carrots don’t have skin, right? You’re just removing the dirty part.
Carrots often have dirt caked on the outside that’s hard to get off with just water, so peeling is a good way to help with that.
The peel has the healthy bits
Sort of, but not really. The nutrients of a carrot may be slightly more concentrated in the skin, but all layers of a carrot contain those nutrients. You’re not depriving yourself of an appreciable amount of nutrients by peeling a carrot.
Sure, preference. I do disagree with the second sentence though.
This isn’t available tracking free in the eu. Could you copy paste the bit about carrots I’m curious
Just disable thurd-party JS, i’m swiss, it works.
And it’s about vegetables generally, some other examples than carrots.
Oops you’re right I hadn’t opened it in my FF it was inside the voyager app still I got in now :) (am on phone atm)

Carrots are not like other vegetables
I ended up at the practice after I first started cooking for myself and didn’t think to do this and wondered why the carrots were so unpleasant. The peel is just too… carrotty. It’s just super intense carrot taste to the point of unpleasantness, also even with a good wash it kind of tastes like dirt. I only really like it when it’s those little carrots sometimes referred to as ‘dutch carrots’ and they’re roasted so you get some blackened char on that skin.
I like the flavor and texture of an unpeeled carrot.
I didnt know this! Growing up my mom always peeled them so I just did it out of habit.
So that’s why I like cooking! Always wondered about that.
So funny story. My stove is currently inoperable because the door lock on the oven is fucked up somehow. Why an oven needs a door lock and why the door lock being fucked should prevent the whole thing from working I cannot tell you. I’ve literally never used it. Thanks whoever programmed that…
The door lock I can understand for safety reasons. Bricking the whole thing because one part broke is lazy programming.
One like my washing maschine has, with touch display and all the firmware bugs where you sometimes have to reboot the maschine to unlock?
Our dishwasher has the option to reset the currently selected program but it has to take a minute to do so with the machine closed always. So you’d press start, realise you selected the wrong program and, even though nothing changed except software, still have to close it for a minute.
I tried rebooting it but that didn’t fix the problem. It’s a GE if anyone needs a brand to avoid.
My parents, like 30 years ago, once locked their oven door by using the self-clean. They had to call a repair man to come unlock it.
Every stove I’ve had with a self cleaning option also has an automatic door lock. The oven gets extra hot during self cleaning mode.
So… just don’t let me use self cleaning… Why does the whole thing need to be bricked because the lock doesn’t work for a single function I’m not using? It doesn’t lock when you use it for baking.
