Depends on the size of the pot (and how full said pot is). Energy in - energy out == energy needed to boil. If energy in per second is really high, and energy needed to boil is relatively small, you'll get there quickly, without energy

If pouring boiling water from a kettle--a thing designed specifically for pouring water--into a pot significantly increases the risk of spilling boiling water, seems like your only option is to limit yourself to cold liquids.

I've been wishing we could do an electric kettle with two heating units, on the off-chance that I have two nearby outlets on different circuits.

Oh wow, I've never even heard of these. Now I want one, though my daughter is within months of being able to crawl, so maybe I'd better skip it for now.

I've signed up for plenty of these lists with per-site emails, and it's very rare for me to end up getting email from anyone but the list I signed up for. Might be different when shopping on international sites (though I doubt it&

> When boiling water or cooking almost anything in a pot, cover it with the lid! Blows my mind when I see people boiling water (huge pots of water!) with no lid on. In many cases, they were waiting around 30 minutes for the water to boil

A little. Thanks for the detailed reply. But I wouldn't expect a smaller, more targeted Claude.md would make a big difference. My impression is that we're filling up the context less with Claude.md than with the session work: back

I'm curious how those replace this? I've barely used either, and would love to hear more.

Yes, some things go up in prices. Would you conclude from that fact that no prices go down? Because that's the claim I'm responding to.

Reminder: Prices regularly drop in capitalist economies. Food used to be 25% of household spending. Clothing was also pretty high. More recently, electronics have dropped dramatically. TVs used to be big ticket items. I have unlimited cell

Looks like I'm getting a ProtonMail ad every few new tabs. I never noticed because I've never looked at the new tab page. Doesn't noticeably slow it down to have the ad there, luckily.

I do. We have paid police, because we want law and order. We have paid dump/collection center workers, because you need a place to take trash. We have paid teachers and school staff, because we want a good education for our kids. We ha

Reading through these things, I was thinking about how being a high trust society is incredibly important (though to be fair, I harp on this a lot). When I was in Cape May, I walked to the beach, and realized I'd forgotten my access pa

I love it. A few years ago I had the idea for when my kids start using the Internet: give them archive.org snapshots from 2005 with LLMs dynamically generating the interaction portions.

You likely don't need to install a special charger or breaker panel. A regular 120V wall outlet will give probably give you 30+ miles of range just charging overnight. If your commute is longer, you might want a better charger, but don

Pretty much any new car sold in the US, Canada, Mexico, and most of Europe. "Western" typically refers to "countries rich/developed enough to [in this case] add emissions regulations". It's a luxury that many c

I won't change my mind about emissions in NYC . NYC is full of modern, western cars. Two-stroke engines are terrible , classic automobiles are terrible, cars with no emission regulations will tend to be terrible. Cars in NYC will hav

I'm not sure, and I assume it will vary a lot by speed. EVs do also have higher torque, so that may increase tire-based particles, but you're right that it avoids the brake pads for the most part. Fewer cars in general is the win

This seems bad. This is a spam bot. Pretending to be authentic engagement doesn't make it not spam. In fact, I'd say pretending to be authentic makes it worse than an honest appeal for attention/clicks/purchases/w
