  • I used to watch twitch a good bit while i was doing other things. It was great to have on while doing dishes or cleaning up.

    I remember trying again in the not too distant past. I got hit with like 5 ads to start the stream. Thought that was going to be is as long as i stayed there… NOPE. Got 5 more ads like 5-10 minutes later. Shut it down and never looked back.


  • I would say trying to cook 3x faster isnt a surface temp 3x higher, but the rate of heat transfer is 3x faster. Because then your laat step is backwards.

    Q = h a dT

    If you just calculated H goes up 1.69x, then dT doesnt need to go up MORE, it needs to go up LESS. A higher HTC increases the rate of heat transfer. Which… now you need to recalc your free conv HTC because temp changed. But if it didnt…

    3Q = 1.69h a 1.78DT

    Old DT was 260, now its 463, which is an ovev temp of 503F

    Edit: this is a transient problem we’re trying to reduce to a steady state calculation with pretty poorly defined requirements. Sounds like a typical day at work for me lol





  • I technically dont have the authority to increase anyones salary, but I have the information and can be a huge advocate for them.

    I personally have also rejected promotions. No counter offer, just said, “if thats all you can afford to offer me, ill try again next year when you can make me a better offer.”

    They came back and doubled the salary increase



  • My wife did basically all the shopping and wrapping.

    But i drove across the state christmas eve to pick up the kitten and hid it for hours. And built all the things that needed to be assembled. I was up til about one while she was in bed by 9. Then the stuff that wasnt from santa was built today.

    Each parent doesnt need to be involved in everything to still be involved.


  • When i lived at my place 2 residences back, they put in a new kfc down the street. When corporate was running it and training everyone, it was amazing. So quick, everything fresh and delicious. We went multiple times a week. The moment corporate left, it was obvious, everything went to shit, and we never went back. That was almost 10 years ago and i still think about it
