Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Beyond Slope Game: Exploring the Genre

Speaking of easy dishes with ancient roots, it's amazing how pre-mixed cornmeal revolutionized arepa making. Thinking about breakfast, lunch, and dinner all covered by one food item makes me happy. I once tried making tamales from scratch for a potluck and drastically underestimated the prep time. I remember running around like a headless chicken near the deadline. Slope Game reminded me that that day, it was a slippery slope indeed.
