I make them with baked potatoes, allowed to cool then grated. The idea is to reduce the liquid content and concentrate the potato flavour, so the hash browns crisp up nicely when fried.
I still haven't got them quite right yet though ...

Thank you very much. I will try the follwing next time:
a.) Peel raw potatoes
b.) Grate them
c.) Rinse them in a strainer
d.) Squeeze them 'slightly enough' by hand
c.) Fry in butter with a lot of bacon, ham and egg parallel

Friend of a friend told him the best hash browns were made from leftover potato salad.
Never tried it though...

To be honest, can't imagine that

I can imagine that this fellow told that!
The Norwegian national dish, "fårikål", is a mutton and cabbage stew made with a lot of whole black pepper corns. When my parents served that to foreign guests, my dad always told with a straight face that those corns were the real delicacy. He used to make sure to tell it when mom made a trip to the kitchen - otherwise, she would have stopped the joke.
And then, some crazy proposals turn out to be great! In one Woody Allen movie (I don't remember which one), Allen is out at a pizza place with some young girl. The waiter comes with a pizza, looks at the couple from one side, then from another side, and finally goes up to them: "It must be you ordering a pizza with ..." and then lists about twenty diffrent fillings. When the waiter has left, Allen comments: "He forgot the coconut!"
This episode made me curious, so next time I made a pizza with a ground meat filling, I tried to fry the meat with shredded coconut before putting on the pizza. It was deicious! Since then, I have often used coconut on my pizza. When I tell people, the generally react with a greater shock than if you tell you use pineapple on your pizza!
(Some people from India give me an assuring nod: In their cusine, coconut milk is often used with mutton, so they accept that it can be good with beef as well, even if they are not familiar with beef, being Hindus.)

Tbh I haven't had a lot of luck cooking hashbrowns either way - cook them after they've been shredded and *frozen* and they'll turn out fine. Otherwise they get brown and mushy.

I heard once that the secret is to put them in the fridge for a while, which will take the moisture out of them. I've never tried it...

There was a discussion about a week and a half ago that sidetracked into triple cooked poatao chips, The Lounge[^]. This post, and also the YouTube video linked in the post, talks a lot about cooling potatoes in the fridge to get the moisture out.

This is how I make my brown hashes:
System.Windows.Media.Colors.Brown.GetHashCode();

Master of the Yoda conditional you are. The OP asked for hash browns, and you give him brown hashes.

Maybe I'm one of the stupid ones too....but a live cannonball? I thought cannonballs were just round balls fired from cannons, projected via an explosion in the cannon between the ball and the end of the cannon's barrel.

Some googling surprised me too. Cannonballs were pretty diverse. The mainstay were solid iron or stone but they also had cannonballs with explosives inside, cannonballs filled with shrapnel and explosive, and canister/grape shot which was around the size of a coffee can and filled with small metal balls essentially turning the cannon into a giant shotgun.
The more you know!
