The anno domini (AD) dating system started in 525. The concept of zero did not make it to Europe until the 11th century.

That’s Julius Caesar. Sort of…

It’s a New York thing

New York the state or NYC?

That is a belief that existed and maybe some still believe it, but I don’t think any large organizations would consider that canon. It’s generally considered a heresy, called Marcionism.

the mirror is reflecting the light emitted by the lamp better than a wall will do.

Will it? Maybe. You are making the assumption that specular reflection is better at reflecting than diffuse reflection, but that is a false assumption. It depends on the reflectivity of the wall and the mirror. A white wall can reflect more light than a mirror.

Yeah. The link I posted is a followup to that story, in which the Biden campaign says those rumors are false.

You have to read more than the headline (but even the headline has a hint that this is not Biden speaking directly). The article says “Four people who regularly speak with the 77-year-old Biden told Politico that it is unlikely he would run for reelection in 2024” It’s just rumors at best. More likely it’s propaganda to get people to not worry about his age.

Even Biden said he was only going to run once.

I don’t think Biden ever said that he would run only once. The news was that a few anonymous sources who were supposedly close to the Biden campaign said that he would not run for re-election and his campaign then denied that.

So then the recommendation should be ‘never boil filtered water in the microwave, and never boil filtered water in a new pot on a stove’, not ‘never boil water in a microwave’.

Edit: or maybe ‘Never boil filtered water in a glass or ceramic container’ that makes it clear that the method of heating is irrelevant, it’s the condition of the water and container that is important.

I’ve boiled water in the microwave thousands of times, it’s never been superheated. It’s does not easily happen in a microwave.

Every time I’ve seen someone test out this microwave myth, they use distilled water and a new container.

Exactly the same as water being superheated in a microwave, no nucleation sites.

There’s nothing special about a microwave that will superheat water. You can superheat water on a stovetop, but nobody ever says not to boil water on a stove.

But with components continuing to get more expensive, Upton wrote, the Zero models have to increase as well—from $5 to $10 for a Zero and $10 to $15 for a Zero W (with wireless).

They are selling for what they are supposed to be sold for.
