Hunan Chicken Recipe (Gift Recipe)
The cuisine of the Hunan province is one of the eight traditional Chinese cuisines, but what sets it apart from the others is its use of bold hot and sour flavors. Chiles, vinegar and fermented black beans are staples in Hunan cuisine, and this recipe uses all three. Hunan chicken originated in China and made its way to the United States in the 1970s, where the flavor profile was adapted to please the American palate. Here, bite-size pieces of chicken are marinated in soy sauce, making them ten…

Mario Kart Wii: chasing ghosts
As mentioned in my post on the closing of Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, I spent a fair amount of time online playing Mario Kart Wii. I had intended to spend time playing multiplayer games, tying to improve my fairly rubbish ranking of 5100, but in fact I found that the online time trials were a bigger draw. The way the ghost races were set up was very clever.

"There was a recent 2024 study that showed us that individuals who survive an acute COVID-19 infection (...) on average will lose somewhere in the neighbourhood of two to six IQ points per infection."
"although your immune system can take on [a COVID] infection, you want to avoid testing it as much as possible because your body is sustaining damage with each infection that it survives."
Seriously, wear a mask 😷 .

Federated Learning Assisted Edge Caching Scheme Based on Lightweight Architecture DDPM
Edge caching is an emerging technology that empowers caching units at edge nodes, allowing users to fetch contents of interest that have been pre-cached at the edge nodes. The key to pre-caching is to maximize the cache hit percentage for cached content without compromising users' privacy. In this letter, we propose a federated learning (FL) assisted edge caching scheme based on lightweight architecture denoising diffusion probabilistic model (LDPM). Our simulation results verify that our propo…
