Gotta say, while I'm not surprised, and it's probably st least partially response bias, it looks like HN has really got its turkey roasting game figured out.
I think a lot of people on HN are "process-oriented" and
"experimentation-favorable". Even though I was a cook in high school, I didn't really gain much skill until I found Alton Brown's books and then moved on to Harold McGee. Thinking about cooking as chemistry and physics transformed how I cook.
