@malin@linuxrocks.online Yes; though it'd require some browser-side JS to update the page contents as the number of people is adjusted.
There are some approaches that come to mind:
1. Insert the ingredient data as structured JSON somewhere into the page (eg. in an embedded <script> tag) and re-generate the page contents every time the amount of people is adjusted, this requires some form of templating (eg. with React)
2. Use specially-tagged tags like so: "Add <span data-amount='2'>2</span> teaspoons of sugar" and upon the number of people being changed, have a bit of code that finds all the `data-amount`-having tags in the page, takes the value from the attribute, multiplies it, and puts the result as the new *contents* of that tag.
Option 1 is probably better if you want to expand the site over time with more (dynamic) functionality like optional ingredients, option 2 is probably better for a "quick and dirty" implementation if this is all the dynamic stuff you'll need.

I feel like I, upon discovering Mastodon, found the total, like, 5–6 people I wanted to follow and've just stuck with them for the last 3 years so I don't know how effective asking the greater Fediverse will be but
Does anyone know of any artists on here who either can do ASCII art or, while not the medium they usually inhabit, are willing to give creating it a try? 'Working on an all-text video game and could use someone who's open for commissions, right now.

@aeva@mastodon.social Magic trick: extract smaller pieces from the multi-year research projects as soon as they become independently useful, and just publish those by themselves
@maia "I ain't getting paid enough for this shit, man"
@af @postroutine @Matt5sean3 They certainly do harm people. Many a domain has been lost and many a project has been renamed worse due to domain speculators' practices.

Domain squatter is a bad term.
Real life squatters are taking something held out of use and returning it to use. That's pretty cool.
What we call "domain squatters" are really "domain speculators."
Speculators in real life hold things away from use to try to extract value from people who want to make good use of it. They're bad and should be eliminated.
This is what domain speculators do. They are also bad and should similarly be eliminated.
