I have a smoke detector that goes off every time I'm cooking anything that smokes slightly…or that produces a significant amount of steam. This means that I have to step away from the stove to silence the damned thing, and that increases the very real risk of a fire because I'm in the middle of actually cooking something that could burn if I'm not actively watching it.
I want a better relationship with my smoke detector because I can't trust it to tell me when something really has gone wrong.
