Because I study stupidity so much, I’ve become a pass master at mimicking stupidity. Well it is been good. How? Some people actually have come to believe that I’m either terribly stupid or demented to some degree. I have evidence. Oh yes – but that doesn’t mean that everybody gets to see it. Why? Jeez ...

For those who want to spend their life understanding

The Analysis Tool (also called REPL) – is JavaScript code used by Claude.ai to perform the thermal calculations and generate the data. This was invoked using the repl command.

React Component – This is the visualization code Claude.ai created as an artifact using React and the Recharts library to display the temperature profiles. This was created with the identifier “temp-profile” and used the artifact type “application/vnd.ant.react”.

It now all makes perfect sense – right? 🤣😂

import React from 'react';
import { LineChart, Line, XAxis, YAxis, CartesianGrid, Tooltip, Legend, ResponsiveContainer } from 'recharts';

const TempProfile = () => {
  const [data, setData] = React.useState([]);

  React.useEffect(() => {
    // Using properties from Table 3
    const albumenFraction = 0.58;
    const shellFraction = 0.11;
    const yolkFraction = 1 - albumenFraction - shellFraction;
    
    const avgSpecificHeat = 
        albumenFraction * 3935 +
        yolkFraction * 3266 +
        shellFraction * 888;
    
    const eggMass = 0.06;
    const eggRadius = 0.025;

      }

      const newEggTemp = (eggTemps.length > 0 ? eggTemps[eggTemps.length - 1] : 4) + tempChange;

      eggTemps.push(newEggTemp);

I’m pretty good at mimicking stupidity!
