Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL about micro-inverters which make it possible to track individual solar panelsEnglish
14·1 month agoThe lower wire amperage, and fire safety where my major reasons for choosing such a system. DC and high power is dangerous when compared to similar power in AC systems.
I’m also one of those people that like to see what the individual panel is doing and logging the data
What is the goal of this note? To say 3 and 1 are switched?

I just want you to be aware that Garmin’s stress measures physical stress NOT mental. Having food increases physical stress as your body needs to work to digest, but it can also lower mental stress. Don’t confuse one for the other.
Doing light work might physically be more demanding, and Garmin will tell you what’s up there. But there is nothing that’s able to look into your skull to determine how it’s going there.
Slight sidenote is that there is some relation between the two, but that’s for smarter people to explain

While redundancy in a drive setup helps, it’s not really a backup and thus not a “safe” way to store important information on it’s own.
That said, selecting the way you setup a raid system is based on risk and utility. I have a raid1 with a hotspare for important files. And use raid5 with 3&4 drives for less important stuff. You can also optimise for reading speed for example (as the same file can be drawn from multiple drives)

The question is: how do you tell them?
Turning into a lecture likely turns it into them not learning and no longer telling.
Instead, ask them what would have happened if… or something of that nature. And then tell them that they where an idiot.

65·4 months agoWhen I was 13 I could just buy beer, the trick was to make it look like you are helping your parents with groceries. So also pickup stuff like a carton of eggs, potatoes and milk. I never had any issue, but it was a different time and in Europe
