A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I think to be organized you'd pick one cuisine as a base object. So if a hotdog is a taco, then beef wellington is a burrito (bread on all sides) as is a calzone.

I'm sorry but I don't follow. I'm mostly taking a piss at the idea that there could be a computational identification system.

My idea is you pick one ethnic style as the base and use the cube bread rule to classify every food under that one ethnic base class. So if you start with the idea that a hotdog is a taco, you'd make Mexican your base ethnic cuisine and classify all other foods into a type of Mexican food.
