Watching a skilled and experienced chef chop onions. I consider myself a relatively skilled amateur cook and with a good knife I can do a decent dice on an onion, but not fast. I have a friend who's been a professional chef his entire career, watching him dice onions is just mesmerizing. He gets a perfect dice on an onion in at most 1/10th of the time it takes me, and for most of the process, he's not even looking at it.

    I live in a country with universal healthcare. In 6 weeks I went from an ambulance to hospital, to surgery to remove a tumor from my abdomen. And for the last 3 years I've had 3 monthly CT scans and a meeting with my oncologist. It has never cost me a penny.

    I only brew using a V60. Never really needed/wanted to try anything else given that I love what it produces. I usually brew 500ml with 30g on a pretty course grind. I'm getting around 4 minutes total brew time with a 45 second bloom. My beans tend to be very lightly roasted and African.
