If anything it’ll be below 100 due to altitude. For example salt water for making pasta boils still at approx 100 deg. C. It takes quite a lot of salt (way more than you would ever want to consume) to meaningfully raise the boiling point.

You must be at altitude. That definitely makes a difference for the boiling point, but of course water freezes at 0. Impurities that you’ll encounter in tap water, for example, will not have a large effect on freezing point.

Even if it was different by a few degrees, how does that make the scale any less intuitive?

I don’t know what high school you went to, but we sure as shit didn’t cover stuff like partial differential equations and functional analysis.

Not at all. People (engineers?) seem to forget that experimental physicists exist

What of experimental physicists?

Not using Debian because gnome seems silly to me. Why not just install plasma if that’s what you want?

I don’t see the problem

I remember looking this up some time ago, and I read that doing so may violate the terms you agreed to when purchasing the ticket. They will probably fine you, or at least attempt to, if you don’t pull it off.

Well you did write tong before and not tongs which is what was being asked. It should still be plural, even without the “pair of” bit.

This is a very good response. Thanks for writing.

In my country the cap is at 12 km I think. So within that distance from work no one gets compensation. Beyond that distance, everyone can get compensation. Motorcycle, car, and train get the same per km compensation, and bike/moped/scooter get a slightly lower ammount. If you have to travel over 60 km (one way) the per km ammount goes up.

Compensation is normally in the form of a tax deduction, but some companies have their own compensation schemes where they pay you for travel. If you get paid this way there’s no tax.

Why? It’s no skin off anyone’s back.
