Confidently displaying your ignorance on a topic isn't a great look. Internalize that you don't know how commercial refrigeration works and either solve that by learning or decide it doesn't matter and move on. Doubling down on stupid shouldn't be the option you choose but based on so much of your incessant posting it seems to by your favorite.

Read the article again. Nowhere does it say they were SET to 50C. It said some REACHED 50C. This is quite obviously because it was forced into hot gas defrost with the termination timer and temp sensor bypassed.

You're making a logical mistake here, assuming it was possible to set them to that temperature. That's not what the article said was done. It specifically says they raised the temperature to that.

What they've most likely done here is activated the reversing valve - a thing that would be normally used for hot gas defrost - and bypassed the defrost termination time and temp sensors.

These things aren't like your home fridge.

That's an excellent point. And in the mean time lots of people are going to end up getting screwed while they catch up with the two new realities: we now live in a low-trust society and a shockingly large number of people have no shame.

Proper light meters exist and have existed for a long time to deal with this. Specifically for state inspection reasons.

Of course it's a bit more than just a light meter, but what's required is far from any tecnological or financial bar to mass production. So amazing that people on here are still so confidently wrong about basic decades old technology.

Okay, so you're agreeing the organizations and people signing these contracts are incompetent to evaluate them? Doesn't that sound like a huge problem to you?

Do you not understand that what I'm saying is the people who are responsible should be held responsible? Or are you just trying to say it's impossible to hold anyone accountable anymore? Because that's simply not true unless they are billionaires.

You've badly missed the point of my post, and instead decided to exaplain how a contract containing the problematic clauses I've called out works.

How are colleges and municipalities finding themselves in situations where they've signed contracts for someone else's equipment to be installed on their property, sometimes literally on a piece of infrastructure they they own/control and legally unable to physically remove the equipment? I woud consider signing that contract to be gross incompetence and negligence if I were a resident of a municipality like that, and it should be a fireable offense for whoever is responsible at that college.

This isn't just about flock either. I just don't understand how we've come to such a large number of people demonstrating startliing levels of incompetence in the performance of their assigned duties.

Oh no, they're going to have to make new corporate entites? However will they figure this process out?

None of that matters. They will just hire their H1Bs through Tata or some other body shop. This is just more favoritism and graft.

I absolutely agree that's on the "better" side, but I'm not sure we're net positive on this one.

Yes. We survived. Do you think society has fundamentally changed for the better due to it? Or has it fundamentally contributed to things to be worse overall?

Maybe the code you strat with shouldn't be AI slop like this project.

So you didn't understand my post. Like not at all. That's really telling about just how correct I was about you.
