All the way up may be too high but turn it up higher, yes.

Best thing to do is pay attention to the sound, smell, and appearance. That will tell you how to adjust the heat.

Start by heating the pan with some oil in it. When you see the oil just barely start to smoke, add the steak. It should sizzle the instant it hits the pan. If you don't hear that sizzle, take the steak out, heat the pan up some more and try again.

Adjust the heat so that the steak is constantly sizzling but there is no smoke or burnt smell. If you smell burning or you see smoke then turn the heat down.

Yeah It always hot enough to sizzle my try 8 or so
thanks for the tip

>> No.6505211

>>6505086
Have the heat up higher then turn it down as soon as you put it in, your steak hasnt caramelised enough

Also try to only turn it over once, and dont try to move it around too much

Doneness looks great anon but I think it needs better searing. Still 7/10 would eat

Don't forget to unallocate the allocated memory or you'll cause a fuckup. There's no problem allocating memory as it's needed but once it's no longer needed dump it before it piles up in a single process and causes problems for other processes.

yeah here's a tip
cook the steak next time so it's not fucking raw you cunt

>> No.6505247

A link listed of allocations is pretty efficient and fast. One thread can rip through it periodically looking for memory allocations marked by other threads and free those allocations. Another thread can come along and cull that linked list if it gets too large. Sometimes it's best to just leave it up to the operating system but the programmer or programmers have to synchronize stuff when there a lot of transactions going on at once, sometimes there are peak periods when shit spikes.

Sometimes it's simply less expensive to buy more memory for a system and let it rip. In any event having cleanup threads and processes keeps the system on the ball so to speak.

They don't. If the meat is chewy then it's not good enough quality to serve rare.

Problems like this happen when some retard tries to cook a steak rare but doesn't realize that it doesn't work well unless you have a good cut of meat...at which point the reason why you cook it rare is to make it as tender as possible. With good meat the more you cook it the tougher it gets.

Try leaving it on the heat for more than 30 seconds retard.

>> No.6505513

>>6505086
it kinda looks like you took it out of the fridge straight into the pan, if that's true try letting it get to room temperature next time before throwing it in the pan. also the hotter the pan the better, it looks almost boiled. don't be afraid of oil and butter.

>> No.6505523

>>6505086
higher heat for a better sear, and dont move it around so much

if you are doing it in a pan, try oiling the steak not the pan

/v/ here. I did this using the reverse sear method. Smoked at 225 with hickory wood till 125° internal, then put it on the grill to sear each side.

looks decent on the inside, but there is absolutely no sear on the outside. you gotta get your pan hotter. what kind of pan did you use? please don't tell me it was non-stick pan... you're not going to get a sear with that. At least use stainless steel, cast iron is even better. They hold they're heat a lot better than the aluminum they use to make non-stick pans, which means the pan stays hot and delivers heat better when you throw a cold steak onto it.

There is a term for steaks called "black and blue" which means the outside is charred to a black crust, while the inside is still "blue" rare. Something like that should be what you are going for. Most people don't use high enough heat... on most things.

ITT, bunch of faggots who eat ramen noodles and cheetos.

Steak needs a nice char. Steak needs to be rare or medium rare. Both can be don on grill or pan frying (caveat, must be cast iron pan). Both require cooking to doneness then searing for char.
OP steak looks decent, just missing the good char.

>> No.6506199

>>6506179
That's why you should always make multiple steaks when cooking for a bunch of people and ask them how they like theirs cooked.
