  • After cruising the comments and reading your post twice I propose the following because I’m that asshole today:

    Go by layer.

    Okay, so, assload insta-death ballpark Celsius in the center, okay fine. Maybe median this one. Then, consider some other identifiable layer(s) between there & surface, with some more eyeballing. THEN, for good measure, as many surface temps you can get for sea/land/air if you have chosen the range to include atmosphere.

    Report back. I’m half asleep and haven’t checked my work. Also. I only ever need half a reason to suggest implementing excel to assist in your calculations 😂 I’m so sorry






  • I love excel. So much so that I grabbed a handful of for dummies books about it, abaorbed them, and moved on to vba.

    It’s not that it is necessarily easy, but moreso brutally satisfying to be able to swear at a worksheet triumphantly once you’ve wrangled something obscene.

    Currently refreshing with 2019 power programming in vba and two older ones, sql for dummies+ crystal reports for dummies. Crystal reports is goddamn brutal to learn, but fuck is it good.

    It’s also kinda fun trying to explain sql tables to people. For context, I’m in accounting but got real tired of all the manual formatting shit I used to have to do. It set me down the path to figure out why things sucked so hard. It’s coming in handy at my new job. I might eventually haggle for a custom title of Spreadsheet Developer lol

    Also, archive.org has a bunch of reference books on miscellaneous computer stuff. It’s where I grabbed most of mine. They had a lawsuit recently so some of the books are unavailable but hopefully op can dig up something useful.











  • My girlfriend tells me I have the magic touch because I usually pick out good ones. The issue I run into more than anything is how volatile any given produce department can be. Some places will only keep rock hard ones stocked, or maybe they have some regular early morning shopper who religiously buys all the ripe ones before you even get there.

    If you’re the sociable type, schmooze with the produce folks at Kroger/trader joe’s and they’ll probably be able to tell you when the best time is to come, or maybe they can be assed to leave more not-rock avocados out.
