@aurn Welcome. I'm an activist with the Victorian Branch of the Australian Nurses and Midwives Federation. I'm posting in a personal capacity.

I've been with my Union for over 20 years and remember when we first won #ratios throughout our state back in 2001. We have had to fight to retain and improve them, but we've held on and there's no doubt that #safestaffingsaveslives

I stand with you in #solidarity as you fight for the interests of your members and the people you care for.

Any #coding advice for assigning #ratios for substitutes. Say I have a recipe for a meringue with a certain amount of powdered sugar, a certain amount of egg whites, and a certain amount of lemon juice. If I'm vegan, I may substitute the egg whites with aquafaba. I know that 2 tbsp of aquafaba is a substitute for 1 egg white. However, aquafaba can also be 3 TBSP: 1 whole egg and 1 TBSP : 1 yolk. It may be for baking, or emulsion, or binding, or more. There's just so many different ways it can go and I'm overwhelmed with trying to figure out how to assign values in an intelligent way so that I can use it later on in altering recipes. And this is just aquafaba. This isn't even to mention all the millions of other ingredients and their substitutes. For example eggs as a basic ingredient can be substituted with many things such as aquafaba, applesauce, yogurt, banana, tofu, chia, and then there's even mixtures of more than one thing, like oil+H2O+baking powder. #codingtips #techsupport

New(ish) paper: #Queen #honeybees adjust their #investment
(and the proteins) in their #eggs depending on the real or perceived size of their #colony: https://elifesciences.org/digests/80499/investing-in-the-next-generation

Queens also partly control which and how may #drones they #mate with. And it seems that they partly control offspring #sex #ratios (older research): https://www.science.org/content/article/queen-bees-control-sex-young-after-all

So much going on, and definitely some #complex #interactions to explore. Gotta love #social #insects!

#Welcome #NewHere
I'm Daniel, an analytical (geo)chemist and lab manager at #CAU university of #Kiel - my scientific interests are the technological advancement of in-situ analytical routines, so that #stable #isotope and #element #ratios can be used as a toolbox to probe natural processes (#uptake of beneficial elements in plants) and reconstruct the past (e.g. as #climate #proxy )

Ya know, 1046am, a bloody Mary is about 4 shots of vodka and a little less tomato juicey stuff, right? Shew!
