Do you know what patience mean?

No, its not yoga, I talked with people who did it regulary... It is not talks with trolls, they are harmless. Trying to understand VFS or ext3, which sources are encrypted in linux tarball, is interesting. Playing chess and 'go' is just a warming.

Real patience is checked when you are cooking a ravioli.



That is how I spent a monday:

  • half of a hour to make a pastry
  • half of a hour to cook up a minced meat
  • about 10-15 minutes to roll up small piece of pastry to thin circle
  • about 20-30 minutes to make 10 raviolis
So, to make above set of them took as long as 3 hours, so not that much.
That was a theory, in practice pastry for each third or forth 'blank' wanted to run away and pastry did not allowed to 'glue' its parts together, which took 5-10 minutes for each one to 'fix'. In some cases it ended up with smaller examples of 'Resident Evil' creatures, like which you can find at the right part of the above picture.



Looks good? And really tasty.
So, forget yoga and chess - real patience is trained by cooking.
