Do you have any examples? The little I’ve played with Ai the different models can give wildly different results from even just asking for a synopsis of an email.

If you are just using the same Ai and similar prompts like “write a murder mystery” I could see it happening. But that’s just not understating AI at that point.

But at the same time, ask the same author to write 10 murder mysteries and they’ll sound similar too.

Uhhh.. That’s just wrong from the start.

Freezer burn is from contact with unconditioned air, every time you open the door, any small leak, etc. all lead to it. Stocking the shelves, moving it from the truck to truck in distribution centers, etc.

A defrost cycle is just one of the very many things that cause it.

This is the “reading a brochure” and not comprehending how it actually works.

And that’s not how water coating works, it’s just one reasoning, it also helps set it off faster since it’s a starting point. That food may last 6 months instead of 12 with the water coating. The main reason for water coating is to add weight for purchasing. Same reasoning chicken breasts are injected with saline before freezing. It’s to “protect it” but try freezing breasts without the saline, it lasts longer.

The water coating is to maintain its “presentability” for it to sell by the time that reaches its best before time, it doesn’t mean it’s the best practice for freezing stuff longer term. It’s purely for looks and money.

I didn't see single source supporting your argument. Probably because if you actually look it up (like I did) you'll see sublimation (the mechanism of freeze drying) is the mechanism of action of freezer burn.

I just described how it’s not the same since the end product is different with other examples. Yes it’s the “same mechanism”, but that doesn’t mean it’s the same thing. Try boiling a pizza instead of baking it, it’s the same “mechanic” raising its temperature, but it doesn’t reach the same end goal.

An elevator and escalators both get you up a floor, but they’re entirely different things. You’re still being elevated, the same “mechanism”, but the process is different. It’s an important detail that can’t be ignored.

There’s not one single job you could say that would single you out and dox you. I also never even asked for that anyways? So… okay…?

I’m technically in STEM since my job requires mathematics, it’s just not applicable here or means what you you want it to think it does.

Try rehydrating freezer burnt food, than come back and say it’s the “same thing”, it’s great you can google it though. Experience says that’s not the case though.

Why don't you explain how it's different to me then. Include sources.

Freeze dried food can be rehydrated since it’s intentional and done quickly. Freezer burnt food is mush since it’s slowly drawn out crushing and tearing all the cellular walls along the way.

It’s like saying you can cook pasta by bringing it to 100c in an oven. Yeah the temperature reached what you want it, but is it “cooked”? Or boiling a pizza in a pot of water. Both items have been brought up to a food safe temp, but it’s not “cooked”. Cooking is a specific process, and unique to each process.

For someone “in STEM” you’re wildly off the mark with most of your points. It’s like someone read a brochure and is just belaying the facts without comprehending them.

Just because some items are glazed for protection from damage or other issues, it’s not to protect it from sublimation. In fact the presence of ice crystals can excerbate the issue. It’s a delicate balance to glaze it enough to protect something like the florets, while not providing an avenue for quicker degradation with freeze burn. You’re taking a specific process and applying to blanketly across the board. A little like saying freezer burnt and freeze dried are identical.

Why do you think properly frozen and not moisture inundated food is able to be frozen for a significantly longer time?

And what does “in STEM” even mean? Basic science is part of everyone’s schooling degree, and most also need to take a specialty like biology, physics or chemistry along with it. Some do all 4 as well. It’s like saying I’m “in school”, great, so you’re still learning the basics. What about people who aren’t still learning basics?

My child is in some STEM camps this summer. Is it supposed to be a flex or something?

It was only mid twenties the last couple days so I was able to get some work done than get a decent reading break. I’m halfway through SW legends “Before the Storm”, it’s book 1 of a trilogy. It’s got a fairly obvious continuity error, but the first prequel movie was 1999 and this book was 1996. It says the Yoda was a hermit on Dagobah for over a hundred years, or close. I’m enjoying it, part of the story centers around Lando, and his partner Lobot from Cloud City who we haven’t heard from since Vaders little tea party there.

After this, it’s book 6 of DCC. I’m hoping the weather isn’t stupid hot and I can get some deck reading in. I enjoy just sitting with my feet in a bucket of water. Anything bigger like a wading pool and the dogs splash too much, can’t ruin my brothers books.

Just providing some information, you’re free to take it however you want *shrug*

I would rather these libraries continue to be a place where people can share and use seeds, but users like OP who don’t know what they’re doing can cause serious issues to the library, and even decimate someone’s home garden with pests or diseases. There’s a way to do this right, and providing “bolted” seeds, isn’t the way.

If you want this stuff to happen, than yeah do what you want, instead of doing things correctly. It’s not gatekeeping to provide information to someone who is causing issues. I don’t think you know what the term “gatekeeping” means.

If you’re buying your own equipment and gear, find a better company. A company is supposed to pay for any and all safety gear, and all equipment should be owned by the company.

The only thing a tradesperson should have to bring to a job is their tools.

… you’re looking at those backwards, those are all lower rates lol.

Falls are the largest issue with trades and cause the most injuries, and all of the trades you listed are the ones that use heights the least.

None of the ones you listed Even come close to the top 10

A construction flagger is at far higher risk of injury, and that has almost no training as well, the risk is a very small portion of the pay.

Yes, this is exactly why the public can’t be trusted to provide decent seeds…

Words have specific meanings, if you choose not to use them correctly, people are going to misinterpret what you say. It also doesn’t give people much hope that you actually know anything about the topic.

If you don’t know what you’re doing, you can actually do more harm to these libraries than you’re providing.

Bolting? No that’s premature flowering from a stress like heat or under watering.

The plant feels it’s not going to get a full life cycle, so it pumps hormones into itself and spends all its energy going to flower early.

That’s not normal, and you don’t want those seeds, or any seeds from any stressed plant really.

Uhh that’s exactly why you don’t use a seed library, bolted seeds are stressed plants and seeds are more likely to have issues next year. You can’t trust public sourced seeds to be good seeds.

Thank you! I find it’s always easier to do something when there’s a goal and a method. So I’ve been consistent with it, even with all of life’s curveballs.

Hrmm there’s two ways to look at this I think.

First, I got back into reading around the start of 2022, and did this pattern for most of it, so we can say I’m 2/3 done in four years and will be completely done in a little over two years.

The other, I started tracking my reading in StoryGraph at the beginning of the yeah. I’ve got 40 books left, and it says my current pace is a book every 10 days. So with my alternating pattern it would be 80 books for 800 days. Just a little over 2 years.

Neat.

Nothing they’ve stated doesn’t also happen here, it’s why I asked where they were. If they were located in the US, they would partly have a point.

But Australias system is pretty good.

You kinda need to know how international certification works when you’re hiring and subcontracting with trades everyday. And they have certs from all over.

on Anon is 23 · c/greentext · 1 pts · 7d

It’s still the same here, but the schooling and the cert make it so it’s not a piece of paper, and that’s universal. Places without schooling (looking at you USA) are the different ones. You can’t get the cert without schooling and passing a relevant shop test, so having a trade ticket holds a hell of a lot weight.

I would take someone with an EU or Aus cert over the USA, just because of how they do apprenticeships there.

on Anon is 23 · c/greentext · 2 pts · 7d

Actually where I am, it’s a government enforced sponsorship, so both sides need to do things correctly.

A first year apprentice has to be paid 60% of the lowest paid journeyman, and if you don’t go to school every 24 months they kick you out. Last years get 90%.

Company has to hire you back on after completing the school stint, they need to fill out your blue book before firing you, so the next company can continue your training.

We also know loosely about other countries regulations, since we are certified semi internationally with our red seal program.

Unfortunately not every trade is “regulated” the same either. Technically you can work my trade without a ticket, carpentry. But getting the ticket shows initiative as well as a bunch of other stuff to prospective employers or clients.

Theres also parents pushing their kids through their companies, but the schooling is also still a hurdle to get through. Got to pass the school work and the shop work and final test each year.

Fourth year school you had to make a desk in 32 hours. Every hour over that to 40 costs you points. It’s interesting because it forces you to decide if it’s worth time fixing something for the extra points for a few lost to time. So there’s lots of little hidden information in that trade ticket.

I still have that desk actually.
