@matigo yep, it's gone :p
@matigo You can be my first subscriber! And for that privilege, you get to pay triple the advertised amount so I can maintain the server for the 3 years it takes anyone else to care about my new service! :P
@matigo Unofficially, half of my studies have something to do with wine, and the other half is mostly fuelled by it :P
I wonder if this is something that could be crowdsourced on Reddit/Wikipedia. Wikipedia already has a 2-deep list of just about every region — it's missing Grand Cru and Premier Cru-level appellations which are essential for Burgundy.
It would be a list that went 4 levels deep into the appellation hierarchy (I think that's the deepest it goes, really), and would also specify appellation type (DOC, DOCg, AOC, AOP, etc.) — the latter might have to be another table.
The hardest decision would be to what extent to normalise the data.
Also, updating current records would take some creative find/replace.
Just had an idea for an update to my tasting notes database. Unfortunately, for the wine side, that would mean compiling an enormous hierarchical list of every wine appellation in existence and every grape variety ever used.
Coffee/beer/tea should be easier…
@matigo How could he tell, unless you allowed him access outside of the sandbox?
Quite surprised at the rent prices in Edinburgh. I can get a run-down 1–2br apartment in a 30yo building that looks like it's about to crumble, located 30 minutes' bus ride out from the centre, for 700–1000GBP/month, or a very new 1br apartment in the centre for 1200/month.
Defies all logic…
@indigo Not in my kitchen it isn't! (If only because it couldn't possibly get any worse…)
