Building a Nutrition Macro Calculator Spreadsheet
11 August 2022
I really want to lose some weight this month, but nutrition is hard,
and it can’t run on instinct. So I made a spreadsheet to calculate
calories and macros. I’m not a dietician or a nutritionist so my diet
numbers should definitely not be trusted. I just followed examples and
combined them to build my diet. What can be trusted is how I loaded the
information from official government sources, and how I did my research.
Rise of Gru - Waterfall to Steam Door Physics
06 July 2022
“Minions: The Rise of Gru” was pretty good, and tells the origin
story of Gru and his formative years. That’s all well and good, but the
waterfall trap scene was the most interesting piece of the movie to me.
The movie opens with some villains attempting to steal this mystical
artifact from a temple. In order to get into the temple the villain must
reorient these dragons which blow fire to clear away the falling water
by turning it to steam. Is this even possible, and if so how much heat
would it take, and why wouldn’t the opener be singed by the overwhelming
temperatures?
