  • You keep saying that, but it’s not an extra step. Weighing the food is in place of the volume measurement, not in addition.

    Using volume measurement: start cutting broccoli. Add to a measuring cup until you get the right amount.

    Using weight measurement: cut broccoli. Add to scale until you have the right amount (actually I would usually weigh out a single large piece, then chop it all at once - same amount of effort).







  • Just a small note: the pressures in this chart are absolute, not gauge. In everyday usage (like talking about tire pressure) we mean gauge pressure - that is, the difference in pressure from atmospheric pressure.

    Your overall point is well taken (the change in temperature doesn’t matter much), but the numbers will be slightly different. For example, a tire filled to 100 psig (gauge) will reach 106.496 psig at 100 deg F, versus 105.663 in the original chart (assuming 14.7 psia atmospheric pressure).






  • I’m not judging you, but to offer another perspective to anyone reading this thread: I am a parent of two young children, and have never not returned a shopping cart. I take the kids with me when I return it.

    As a parent, I realizes that it’s harder to do things with kids than without, but I go out of my way to not pass that burden onto others.

    There are many ways our situations could be different that would make it harder for you to do this than me - your reasons are completely your business.


  • The most intuitive analogy to federation to me is email. You may have an account with one provider (gmail.com in the example of email, or lemmy.world in the example of Lemmy) but you can send emails to other providers (email example) or post messages to other instances (Lemmy).

    Just like with email providers, a Lemmy instance may decide not to allow communication with another instance - this is “defederation.” Instances that allow communication are “federated.”

    Just like email, you don’t normally need to worry much about whether you are on the same instance as a particular community or user - it just works.

    This is a simplification, but for me is a good working model.
