Ex-workers at Taser firm
Felt the pressure to get firmly tased
But they didn't comply
To the all-in high-fly
And the loyalty culture was disgraced

My Dresden colleagues have recently published a paper.

Carlotta Mayer (@c_ma_yer on the cross site) shows that #hepatocytes react to increased #bile #pressure by forming the #apical projections called bulkheads. This is also observed in #human #liver when bile pressure is increased to a pathological level. Upon further increase of bile pressure, bulkheads no longer hold the #canaliculi shape and form #rosettes.

Significant disagreement in Chez Tanner today. I can flex a muscle at the back of my jaw to pop my ears, & use it in planes, Nguaranga gorge etc, to clear pressure differentials.

MrsT says she can "crackle" her ears this way, but it's different to "popping", where she has to hold her nose and blow to clear the pressure. I don't need to do that tho.

Internet says voluntary control of this muscle is very rare, so I don't know if I'm VERY weird?

Boosts welcome

And just how "optional" is it? Are employees turning up because they'll look bad if everyone else on their team goes and they don't?

A lot of managers are blind to this kind of #silent #pressure on employees. They are completely unaware of the power dynamic between management and employees, and so they misunderstand the #motivations and #behaviours of those employees.

Update: I was happy with the test setup with the hanging water bucket and wanted to try the garden hose next. First thing I found out was that I need an adapter that I don't have.

If the system is going to be connected to the garden hose pressurized by an electric #pump, there needs to be an #adapter that not only reduces the diameter of the hose, but also reduces or regulates the #water pressure. With the elevated tank, the water pressure is given by the elevation, basically the potential energy stored by me hanging the bucket up there 😆, and it's not a lot and very stable. But the electrical water pump is stronger, and the #pressure fluctuates.

I looked around for a second hand adapter, but that's a very specific thing. Maybe if I wait a year or two I will see an offer. But our #holiday is this year, and I still need time to test before that. I searched for alternatives. There's a similar adapter by the competitor brand that I could get, #Gardena, but the hose diameter is different on that one, so I would need an adapter for the adapter.

I grudgingly decided to abandon the #dontBuyAnythingNew principle and ordered the blumat pressure adapter. A week later I got a notification that there will be a long delay in the delivery (aka they don't actually have it, it's just for sale on their online shop 😡), so I cancelled the order and ordered it somewhere else. (I also tried to buy it locally by actually going to a store, but it's not in stock anywhere near me.) It's supposed to arrive tomorrow.

But I learned something in the meantime. I had attached the small irrigation line that goes from the top of the ceramic cone to where you want the water to go
with a large piece of sticky tape to the side of the pot, to make it drip into the water reservoir at the bottom of the pot. After about ten days, it became loose. It started dripping a little bit to the side, then more and more. I re-attached it. Then it got completely loose, and I got to see how fast it can drip when the cone dries! 😆 That's why I want to test these things well in advance. 👍

The pepper plants in the test pot are fine and growing well. They had their first flowers and there will be tiny peppers soon🫑. The system so far does not use nearly as much water as a expected. I only refilled the bucket once.

So pressure, like other forms of energy, acts a lot like mass. From a gravitational perspective, pressure pulls.

When you calculate the gravitational effect of a clump of gas, for instance, you have to factor in not just its mass but its pressure, and both contribute to the gravitational impact that gas has on the stuff around it.

In fact, the pressure contributes more to the space-time curvature than the mass does.
