I'm looking at two different crochet patterns for the same basic object. There is a long series of decreasing rows. One pattern says to decrease by 4 stitches in the row, then do a row with no decrease. The other says to decrease by two stitches in each row.
I am wondering whether they would look at all different.

If you do domain stuff too, I think people would be attracted.
I used to be a bit sniffy about the mezzaluna. I mean, what’s the point of a tool that can do only one thing. A year ago, I succumbed, in a hardware store from heaven, and now I am a total convert. Nothing else could reduce a handful of leaves so efficiently. And it doesn’t even take up that much space in the drawer vertically.
I think this may be a green-veined white butterfly (Pieris napa) but would welcome confirmation from the likes of @lionelb
Latest episode takes a look at espresso, with conversations about the hipster barista and Chinese espresso. Together, they show clearly that even traditions that define an identity are not as immutable as people sometimes think they are.
Solved, I think.

It has been a long, long time since I went to an actual geohash (as opposed to the far more approachable rabbit quest).
Time to block #eurovision for a few days.
Patience and planning rewarded. #bloomscrolling
Aaargh. Despite using stitch markers I have somehow managed to drop on stitch per row in the hat I am working on. Because the markers lured me into a false sense of security so I didn’t actually count. But I haven’t the will to undo it all and start again. Maybe only I will notice?
I’m getting very fed up with the fact that every time there is a powercut, my router reassigns IPs, especially to the Pi is use for pi-hole. It is a Fastgate router, supplied by my ISP, Fastweb, and although I have looked everywhere, I cannot see how to assign IPs permanently. Is there a way? Would some extra equipment help?

New episode: Mysterious Collards in Morocco
Collard greens are strongly associated with Black foodways in the US South, though they are also eaten in parts of Europe and in East Africa.
And, as it happens, in Morocco on the edge of the Sahara, although the outside world has only just found out about that.
Where did those collards come from? Who brought them? When? And what do they tell us about collards in the US?
Oh boy! The bee-eaters are back.

The octopuses are gorgeous.
Very happy today, of all days, to share this timely piece from The Public Domain Review

If the current president of the USA is the modern incarnation of Pope Paul II, which he certainly seems to be, dare we hope that meets a similar end, as related in Inventing the Renaissance?
No pretzels for me. DB was on time to 3 mins from the station, then sat there. 9 mins late for an 11-min transfer. Just made it.
And we’re off. Dear gods, please let DB deliver me to Frankfurt on time.
14:40 and 1237 km later, made it!
Any good food options at Frankfurt HBF?
Germany, I am in you.
Switzerland achieved.
Switzerland achieved.
Step 2: Milano Centrale Frankfurt Hbf. Great seat but shockingly poor food options at Milan. #crossborderrail
And so it begins. Leaving Roma Termini en route to Dūsseldorf. So far so good.
