See my first response...there might be something in there but since it is not rationally laid out it is impossible to see what it is.

This might seem mean but it is in fact an attempt at constructive criticism.
Your posts are unintelligible. It isn't clear what your points are. It seems that you are complaining about something but doing it in such a way that it is difficult if not impossible to follow, perhaps because it is so rambling.
I might note that communication, written and oral, is something that a developer must be able to do. So if your professional communications are similar to this then perhaps this is the problem (again not sure what the problem is but maybe that is a problem?)
It is possible to work on being better able to communicate. Note that written and oral communications are different skills and so must be worked on individually. Also keep in mind that if a developer wants to move up in an organization and/or to different levels then oral/written communications are an absolute requirement.

It started heating water without being turned on, just plugged in - which was a pain as tonight's supper was in it defrosting, and didn't need heating to over 90C for a few hours. And herself was going to cook a beef joint in it tomorrow.
Long story short: it's dead dead - the electronic controls have died, but the PSU is fine. I found it was held together with tamper proof screws, so I took it apart on the basis that there must be something interesting in there if they don't want me to look...
So I've had to get another: Anova Precision Cooker[^] - which is my first IoT device (and quite possibly my last if I get my way.) Thing is, I can see a point to this being IoT - you can control it from your phone so you can start it cooking so it's ready when you get home.
But pricing is a joke: the same device is from £164 (second hand) on Amazon, to £99 + £23.50 delivery on Fleabay from Lithuania. But ... direct from the manufacturer, it's $99 and free delivery from the Netherlands, 3 - 6 business days. Or I could add £16.50 for DHL delivery ... in 3 - 7 business days. Hmmmm....

F*** it, sous vide is yesterdays trendy must have. Sling it and go back to 1970s cooking, flambées and all that, must be time for a resurgance!

Gawd! It's been decades since I last had 70's cooking* - a fondue was a good way to pass an evening with friends and a lot of wine!
* Except Prawn Cocktail, which isn't cooking at all. Damn good though!

No, but I have heard of it. I imagine a shot of ice cold schnapps could be a good forfeit.

They just don't make things like they used to. 
My mother's Kenwood mixer died recently after 55 years of heavy use. Where do you get such quality nowadays?

Second hand, I suspect ... modern stuff is mostly designed to survive the warranty period. Just.

My Mums Kenwood mixer died, took it apart soldered the broken wires applied some heat shrink, all good!
. Things these days are not built to be repaired.

In this case, it was the motor that burnt out. 
Fixing it is beyond my talents.

the $1 shop has sets of drivers for them things and over 1000 sellers on ebay that'll sell a full set for a few dollars free postage from China, cant really call them "tamper proof" any more, more damn annoying trying to figure out which bit to use.
In fact star slot bolts are quite common on everything from bicycles to heavy machinery - not to be tamper proof, rather
- for small bolts/screws the star shape is a more resistant to over torque damage (rounding), and
- sometimes to differentiate bolts purposes' such as on bikes the hydraulic brake oil resevoir cover will be a star whereas the fixing bolts are usually hex/allen.
A lot of [Chinese] machine assembled electronic items such as your PSU most likely also used them for the better torque handling, often the bolts/screws are made from low grade cheap [soft] aluminium alloys, and they also can handle a higher margin of size error compared to the allen and philips. (Most of these things are fully machine assembled, millions of units per month.)

A friend of mine has one of those. He loves it. What's your favorite meal to make with it? He's always looking for more recipes  
|
|
|

I tend not to cook "whole recipes" with it - just use it to get the primary ingredient right - steaks, beef joints, lamb legs, burgers, chicken breasts / chunks all work really well. Since the various ingredients generally need different temperatures to "give their best" I find whole recipes a pain rather than an help.
But... steak au poivre, Red Thai Curry both work well, as does pretty much any fish!
I'm still trying to get Dauphinoise potatoes right in the sous vide though - they are a PITA to gently simmer for long enough without the potatoes falling apart completely!

Yea, whole meals aren't worth the trouble. He most recently used it for a rack of lamb that turned out really well. I haven't had gratin dauphinoise (or as I know it - scalloped potatoes) in a long time. Now I want some

|

|

Yeah, they do lamb really nicely - once you get the timings right. First time I tried I followed timings I found on t'interweb and gave a half leg 18 hours at about 56C. Came out like slimy baby food, just inedible. Now we do it 2 1/2 hours at 57, and it's really good!

Looks like a dildo. What do you do, stick it in the arse of your animal of choice and it cooks it from the inside out?

Pay the extra £16.50, you know you want to.

So, I had no idea what a Sous Vide is, so I researched it.
I still don't know why you would want to cook this way? Not saying it is bad, I just don't understand it.
Is this something that a slow cooker (aka crockpot) can do?
Anyhow, I always try to buy products that have been on the market for at least 3 years, and then, If I can, search the reviews for a feel of what the average life expectancy is for the product. If it has been doing well for at least 2-3 years, then I will most likely purchase it.
