   starting writing a script for a "how does this tech work?" video and didn't get more than two pages in before having to add an author's note of "do not explain this!"

     I write a lot and if I script a video like I write I'm going to take three hours to explain one (1) minor thing.

     heh. I was gonna specifically say "The Curie point, or more accurately the Skłodowska-Curie point", but then I checked and it turns out that's completely wrong for a very simple reason:

     It's not named after Maria Skłodowska-Curie, it's named after Pierre Curie, her husband. Whoops!

     @mmu_man exactly. I ask for all my butter chickens curries to be heated right up to the curie temperature

     @foone whereas the Curry point is when the food start having flavor?

     first pass (with a lot of the technical details not yet inserted) is 3.5k words. This might actually happen!

     @foone Meanwhile, I'm fucking about with 18th century literary theory in the course of analyzing this.

     @dzwiedziu indeed. And Pierre probably only figured it out because of the contributions of his brilliant Polish wife!

     @foone
     As Maria Skłodowska-Curie is too often called a “French” scientist, I will allow giving her the Curie point.
