If you were breast-fed, you drank raw milk as a child. And pasteurization removes/diminishes nutrients in milk. It’s much more nuanced than ‘raw milk is bad’.
As someone producing food, it’s pretty much a given that something in nature will seek to consume what you are producing. I was waiting for it, and in this case, wild boar.
"In current models, the water spray is kept at a precise 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit" - so actually 38 Celsius because that's the temperature scale that Japan (and almost everywhere else) use.
The most marked comparison I’ve seen is between the B-25’s in Catch 22 and the aircraft in Masters of the Air. The real B-25s struggle and climb into the air on takeoff and it’s evidently real. Masters of the Air just had shot after shot of aircraft sitting dully in the sky - so eminently artificial.
The term ‘climate change’ didn’t exist 45 years ago (except perhaps in a few technical circles). You’re using current knowledge/terminology/perspective to comment on things that were not in the mindset of the general populace or politicians at the time. I know this as I was there.
I love it, but surely just a temp gauge for running a hot compost is nice & simple? If mine is over 45C, I'm fairly sure that means the thermophiles are present and doing their thing
I'm working on a solar forecast for my off-grid PV installation. It's a small install of 1kWp (2 bifacial panels) with a 4kWh battery. I chew through about 25% of my battery each day and so a forecast of the next few days or so is very useful to help me decide whether I can dip heavily into the battery or whether I should be a bit more conservative about power use.
The all-in-one 3kW inverter/controller that he uses is for 110V AC output (using the 48V battery). In the article he linked to, the system uses an EG4 3000EHV-48 that also outputs 110V AC.
Are there equivalent all-in-ones that would provide 230/240V AC for use in Australia/New Zealand?
The component model is a very powerful technique for keeping large amounts of complex code maintainable. I worked in large amounts of tricky jQuery before the component model and I would never wish to go back.
JSX works well for a component approach because you’re expressing the component in a fully functional programming language. Doing a lot of that work tends to make the developer quite capable in Javascript.
Ability to communicate trumps actual competency every time in a typical career.
People who are senior to you got there because they have a superior ability to communicate, not because they have any competence. This will range from people who are so communicatively capable they can silvertongue their responses to utterly conceal incompetence/laziness to their own management to people who have slight competence but better communication and so get promoted over the most knowledgeable/experienced/capable in their domain.
Twenty years ago I thought these type of people were an aberration. I’ve come to realise that in fact, they are the majority in any business/corporate hierarchy.
I just wish that Teams would load in a reasonable time on Firefox. It's a corporate enforced need and it takes minutes to load the web Teams version in Firefox. Microsoft seem not to treat Firefox as a legitimate web client.
One of the challenges of being a piano player - youtube search for a new piece you're interested in and there will be a video of a 4-5 year old playing it on a baby grand somewhere :-)
Absolutely. When I do front-end work, I screenshot every visual change in the PR. Boss wants a look at the current work -> screenshot Users want to see a difference -> screenshot.
But the most valuable it that it builds up a visual history of changes in my Screenshots dir.
In the appendix links at the bottom, there's a comment that a large percentage of houses in Japan are still built with post & beam. I've been prompted with a slew of recent "Japanese carpentry videos" that seem to sync with this.
I'm curious why it's still prevalent in Japan? Most new Japanese houses are not built in the old machiya style.
Says a bit about Nature reviewers if the paper misses out a country that would have impact on the key points in the abstract
