*groan*
You were off a little, but that’s okay................
lmao... I bet he actually IS totally pissed about this.
“Trader Joe’s has decided to reverse course and not change all the brand labels”

Doesn’t say they’re not changing the names/labels. In fact, this reads more like their rationale for making the changes.
Not a theory. It is the number of atoms or molecules in a mole of an element or compound, isn’t it?
So, it’s true then...Trader Joe is racist. Death by Bunga.
It has changed:
Per wiki:
These definitions meant that the value of the Avogadro number depended on the experimentally determined value of the mass (in grams) of one atom of those elements, and therefore it was known only to a limited number of decimal digits. However, in its 26th Conference, the BIPM adopted a different approach: effective 20 May 2019, it defined the Avogadro number as the exact value N = 6.02214076×1023, and redefined the mole as the amount of a substance under consideration that contains N constituent particles of the substance. Under the new definition, the mass of one mole of any substance (including hydrogen, carbon-12, and oxygen-16) is N times the average mass of one of its constituent particles—a physical quantity whose precise value has to be determined experimentally for each substance.
Well, I was close. I had the correct power of 10.
Thanks for looking it up.
I am getting to be very irritated by these teenagers who think they know it all.
Perhaps they do this because they think it will help their college applications. Well I have news for them. The college of their choice might not even be in business next year.
While mathematics is, of course, involved in anything using it, Avogadro’s number fits best under the physics and chemistry categories.
N = 6.02214076×10 ^ 23................
It has changed since last year:
N = 6.02214076×10^23...................
In other words, they grew a pair of Goyas
There’s no fool like a Bowl Fool!..................
LOL!.....................
My definition is still correct.
Close enough for government work!...................
I made up this joke in high school chemistry class. I almost got thrown out of that class for later telling a dirty joke.
Q: Why did Avogadro die?
A: His number was up.
Wouldn’t that be “kitschy, ja”?
Q: Why can’t you call Avogadro?
A: He switched to an unlisted number.
