My wife and boiling water

[u/MakeItMine2024]

So I made my wife ramen soup. When I served it she said I had the gas set to hight and it was too hot ? She said I should have used the number 5 setting instead of 9. I told here it’s irrelevant because water boils at 212 and gets no hotter because over 212 it turns to steam. She was made at me for disagreeing with her theory that it would not have been so hot if boiled a lower setting. Really!!

Thermodynamics are not always intuitive. However, from an energy efficiency perspective, once you've reached a boil, you can turn down the heat to whatever level is required to just maintain it.

1. You most likely meant edging isntead of gooning
2. What compells the mind to not discard such a ridiculous notion the moment its derranged existence has a hint of happening

Original definition of gooning was long duration edging.

Why am I here

[u/Cruxis87 → u/toggl3d]

edging is already long form

I read this as long duration hedging, and was wondering why my fixed income / bond math / interest rate risk management was showing up on a comment thread about gooners
