  • I had the opposite. When we learned about magnets in high school, it was pretty much told assuming the atomic and crystalline scale of natural magnets to be a black box. Meanwhile, the instructions on electromagnets gave me enough to go off for me to extend that down to said crystalline and atomic level. So when I stepped to my teachers, claiming I had a theory and enthusiastically explaining that spinning electrons created an electric current, which in turn create magnetic fields at the atomic level, which can then line up with neighbouring ones to become a whole magnet, they responded “yeah, that is exactly how magnets work.”

    Also, their mixes and compositions have improved. TtFatF was an assault on the ears where some instruments might as well not have been recorded. Mixes from more recent tracks are more balanced. Unlike TtFatF, on their most recent albums you can actually hear the bass.

    He’s right though.

    Mac & cheese really is unimpressive. Spaghetti Carbonara is way better, even with inaccurate ingredients (e.g. using bacon instead of guanciale or even pancetta).

    Though if you do insist on making it 'Murican style, try melting the cheese into a bechamel sauce and adding some diced ham or cubed bacon. The former makes it way creamier, even if it ends up standing for a while, and the latter just adds some neat flavour and texture. Stick with ham and/or bacon, or maybe very few other things, otherwise it stops being mac & cheese imo.

    I saw a story once of someone who asked internet strangers whether they were the asshole because they hated someone’s mac & cheese. When they described what went into the stuff, it was full of added things, a quarter of which would already stop it from being mac & cheese, and half of which either conflict with each other, or are stuff which if they were the sole additive would give me a reason to nope out of the dish.

    With both mac & cheese and spaghetti carbonara, I’d say less is more.
