I have the info below taped to the front of my bench drawer, but I thought I would put it out there in text format for anyone who it might be useful to, so I made some notes over here: soldering temperature.

Watching temperature on ‘charm’
Note to self: run these commands to watch NVMe, GPU, and CPU temperatures on ‘charm‘:
watch sudo sensors watch sudo nvme smart-log /dev/nvme0 watch sudo nvme smart-log /dev/nvme1 watch sudo nvme smart-log /dev/nvme2 watch sudo nvme smart-log /dev/nvme3
These sensors were enabled with:
sudo apt install nvme-cli sudo apt install lm-sensors sudo sensors-detect

Temperature Conversion
Got my temperature conversion chart printed and installed so I can talk to the Americans. The HTML I used to generate the charts is here.
Zener diodes for temperature critical applications
“In a 5.6 V diode, the two effects occur together, and their temperature coefficients nearly cancel each other out, thus the 5.6 V diode is useful in temperature-critical applications.” — Zener diode.
The two effects referred to are the Zener effect and the Avalanche breakdown.
Standard temperature and pressure
So today I found myself looking up Wikipedia for standard temperature and pressure which as I understood it was 25°C and then right there in the standard laboratory conditions section it says “schools in New South Wales, Australia use 25 °C at 100 kPa for standard laboratory conditions”. I had no idea those “standard” conditions I learned in school were so specific to my context!
