  • Is this true?? I always assumed that electric ranges simply had a variable duty cycle controlled by the knob. That would mean that if you want to get a pot up to a specific temperature, the fastest way is to set the knob to high until you reach the temperature, then reduce the knob to the desired temperature.

    This is different from how an HVAC works, where you set an actual temperature and the HVAC runs until that temperature is reached.

    But I could be totally wrong about how electric ranges work.




  • I’m assuming this is meant to be an example of a real-world scenario, and I suspect it would be helpful to hear the actual scenario so that we can comment on the nuances of the specifics rather than wondering if the nuances of the example are relevant or not.

    But, to take your example at face value: no, I don’t believe the expelled rose-lover is correct about the tulip lover’s club being an echo chamber. The tulip lover’s club is about tulips… it’s in the name, and that’s why it’s members gather there. The rose-lover is coming in talking off-topic to the point that the members of the tulip lover’s club have found it distracting. It’s nothing to do with an echo chamber. I would probably expel someone from my chess club if they showed up and constantly tried to get everyone to play monopoly instead.
