the milk is really only effective if taken before. (and too much will give/worsten the sh*ts)
alcohol is effective after, but be careful not to overdo and end up with another predicament.
not being smart, the hotness of chili is mostly in the oil of the seed/flesh - taken before the milk the milk just runs off it where it coats the food/taste receptors. The ethanol in alcohol though can penetrate and lift the oils. another alternative would be soap.
best solution: leave the milk in the fridge, enjoy the chili.
after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

That sounds a bit counter intuitive; you don't throw alcohol on a fire

It's difficult to find truly spicy food in NL; it's not to the majority Dutch taste. Stuff labelled as "pikante" barely tickles my tongue.
I can't even find a chilli powder with a decent kick to it, so we grew our own, too -- but hot as the hobs as Hell, these were.

try a turkish shop, they have good chillis in germany
but you have to politelly ask for the "other" chilli, that are usually only sold to other turkish people

Certainly, the restaurant didn't present itself as a traditional Dutch one, but as Indonesian. Yet I was under the impression that Indonesian cuisine has crept into the national Dutch one - and also that the original Indonesian stuff is quite well known in the restaurant business. Isn't that so?
My first taste shock was more that 35 years ago, so maybe it has been watered out today. Later, I was for 19 years married to a girl whose father was Dutch, and her Dutch relatives certainly knew to find what I would describe as "well spiced" food. Maybe they were not representative for the Netherlands.

You can gauge the majority diet of a country by simply looking at what supermarket shelves are mainly stocked with, and spicy barely gets a look-in.
Restaurants in the big three cities (Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and Den Haag) also cater for remarkably large non-Dutch populations, so they have more adventurous foods alongside the sausage and mashed-potatoes-with-veg-mixed-in staples.
When my daughter's class took a trip to Italy, she was over the moon with the variety of food, and the vivid flavours, but her Dutch classmates still stuck with cheese sandwiches (two slices of bread, one of cheese) for lunch, and within a week they were all pining for stampot[^]. She thought they were all insane.
I have to say that she may be right -- on a diet like that, I'd go insane pretty damned quick, too.

YEP... I defo knew you can sweat inside your ears.
I started to wear hearing aids about 4 years ago now, since these are effectively hard plastic plugs, molded to fit the shape of my ear exactly, it forms an all too perfect seal in hot weather, and the result is quite yucky when you remove them...
Let's not get onto the fact that I too have a preference for eating foods that do indeed cause "Liquid Fire", if what I'm eating doesn't try to make 3rd degree burns inside my mouth.... I'm not interested

I'm not interested That sounds more like its in the realm of the devil-spices; I also don't think one would still taste much else, like sweet or salty when it is that hot.
So, what's your "regular" pepper then?

It's not very comfortable sometimes, but wearing them means I can mostly hear the world around me, without them you have to be 5 mm away from me and speaking at at about -24db for me to hear you
My regular pepper, couldn't tell you what kind it is. I have a friend who has an allotment garden (If your not from the europe side of the pond these may be a strange concept to you : Allotment (gardening) - Wikipedia ) where he grows what he calls "Custom Peppers".
He supply's most of the ones I use in cooking, the rest of the time stuff just comes from specialist retailers on line, places like : The Spice Shop
A lot of the time, since the mrs doesn't like things as hot as I do, I'll make a really toned down version using regular bell peppers, then I'll mix various crushed and dried chillis in with my portion once I've served hers
In terms of "regular", id term it more as "Preferred" (IE: Read that as when I can get a hold of them) I quite like the carolina cayenne, packs a hell of a punch, but doesn't cause carnage when your actually cooking with them, that is the juice doesn't soak into your skin, and you don't realize until 4 hours later when you go to scratch your nose
Devils tongue on the other hand, well what's to say except that... it's a vicious bugger... cook with it, do it properly it'll blow your head off... but you scrub your hands to within a mm of taking all the layers of your skin off afterwards, and even then... your guaranteed to still have some residual juice/debris hiding under your nails or such like that will catch you unawares even days later
Devils tongue is a nice sweet pepper though, I like it's deceptive sweetness, it's my prefereed pepper for making chilli jam.

Never heard of chilli jam before; just found a recipe. Tx for that tip, sounds a lot better than preserving my chillis in vinegar

Chilli jam is awesome.
Different chillis give different flavours and levels of sweetness, until you get right down at the bitter end of the scale where your then more or less making "Chilli Picallili" or "Chilli Chutney"
Sweet end of the scale, you can actually get quite creative, I've had really good results with "Chilli & Strawberry" and "Chilli & Plumb", although I will never forget the day my mother came to visit and made herself some Toast with strawberry jam on
She's screeching with a burning mouth and I'm trying to help (Milk, Cheese etc) all while I'm killing myself laughing.

Got strawberries in the garden too; but never had the idea to combine those. Peanut-butter and jam, yes, but that's not something I'd like to try with hot spices!

Now that I've posted Rolex, I thought i had something queued up. I was going to work on LLLPG (Qwertie's project) a bit but I'm waiting on him right now.
I want to implement the final bit of my FA engine but I'm blocked on an algorithm i can't get right and have a book on order for that.
And I can't think of anything else to code right now.
I'm in the mood, but nothing that comes to mind sounds appealing.

Here's one that should be challenging enough for you: study Jing Lu's ReoScript implementation and how he integrates it into the ReoGrid spreadsheet in a way the script can interact with run-time C# object instances.
Note: at one point, Jing made ReoGrid closed source; a year or so later, he changed it back to open-source.
ReoGrid : [^], [^]; also on github. ReoScript : [^], [^]
Then create a DSL<=>C# generator driven by your parsers.

Alex Maitland could definitely do with a hand on the CEFSharp project.
He's been struggling a lot to keep up with issues and such like lately since he became a dad for the second time
I help where I can, but I'm run off my feet at the moment with other stuff, so I'm sure any volunteers to help get through the issue backlog would be greatly appreciated.

Ever happened to you that everything worked just fine for you, you take a back up, make changes and it refuses to work as it is intended to?
I am currently working on a Flutter app, which worked just perfectly! I committed the recent changes,
$ git log -1
commit 6441c90ee1c010362eb81740184fb50d900b46a1 (HEAD -> master, gitlab/master)
Author: Afzaal Ahmad Zeeshan <my-email@example.com>
Date: Thu Jan 30 02:49:38 2020 +0500
Contacts and lists now showing the phone numbers are showing too.
The "past me" is telling me that database integration worked and SQLite receives all the records from the device for app usage. That is where I paused the development last night and committed the changes. Today I just resumed the development, and voila. The most basic of the code happens to not work.
var contacts = await ContactsService.getContacts();
if(contacts.length == 0) {
print("[INFO] Device does not have any contacts.");
return;
}
print("[INFO] Loaded ${contacts.length} contacts, attempting to save...");
var database = await $FloorAppDatabase.databaseBuilder(MyApp.dbName).build();
List<Recipient> newContacts = [];
contacts.forEach((contact) async {
var _contact = await database.recipientDao.findRecipientById(contact.identifier);
if(_contact == null) {
newContacts.add(Recipient(contact.identifier, contact.displayName));
}
});
if(newContacts.length > 0) {
await database.recipientDao.insertAllRecipients(newContacts);
print("[INFO] Added ${newContacts.length} contacts.");
}
The code attempts to save the contacts from a device to a device-only database. The _contact is always null , newContacts always gets a new element for contact (since there is no record in the database). But as soon as it hits the if(newContacts.length > 0) { line, the length of the array drops to zero.
There isn't any closure (Dart is JavaScript of Google) in action, awaits are applied just fine to pause the execution at IO-bound tasks, but still, it simply refuses to work.
Interesting thing is that this is the same code I committed last night!

I feel your pain.
My code hasn't changed but now it fails to build.
There's a transform script working on the app.config and the transform script (created by another dev) is failing all of a sudden.
So, now instead of focusing on my code I have to figure out why the transform script is failing.
I'm fixing the _hammer_ so I can nail the boards together. argh!!

Quote: So, now instead of focusing on my code I have to figure out why the transform script is failing. True, such as a code-block it is. I have personally felt that among all the open-source frameworks, Flutter has the most open issues on GitHub. And these issues are not going anywhere.

Even if I don't mess up with anything, Google would update something and it just wouldn't work.
