Were people doing much with Li in 2011? I don't remember them being all that accessible until a few years later but maybe that's just when they filtered into the worlds I was in at the time.

I haven't used it but Vexcel makes oblique imagery available. They use planes I believe to get multiple passes of each are they image and from various angles. Then they combine it and make the maps available. https://vexceld

A few years ago I was involved in purchasing a commercial building for split purposes. After viewing several spaces it became clear how critical plumbing location were to thinking about how a space could be used. We looked at a few where ow

Ah, I did a poor job conveying what I meant. You are correct of course. I was referring more to a change in the culture of the board and methods members could use to nominate board members. Also to clarify we were talking about MEC (Mounta

REI changed about 25 years ago and it took a while for people to notice/the changes to filter through enough. Was talking recently about similar changes with MEC in Canada with a family friend who joined MEC as member 200-250. He had a

I remember in 2018 there were only 18 Kokanee counted spawning from Lake Sammamish. "A striking ebb in the number of Kokanee salmon in Lake Sammamish, just east of Seattle, has officials worried that extinction is around the corner. Fi

You can also buy mate with mint mixed in. I accidentally bought a kilo of it a while ago and I've been working through it slowly.

Did you see this last year about the origins of potatoes? I'd like to get into grafting fruit trees, my uncle was a major fruit eater and filled the yard with many varieties of apples and pears. The apple tree where I live was a mess a

Depending on how far back you want to look at electric cars you can find them for pretty cheap. Sub $5k versions from 10 years ago were tempting recently when my partner needed a repair on the current (ICE) car. It looked like sub $15k ther

Yeah I occasionally will buy a ticket or two. Not often, but sometimes on a whim I get them. I figure it is probably a slightly healthier version of buying the king size kitkat or snickers in the checkout line. The cost is the same, the sat

I think maybe you aren't the target market. Just like I don't understand my friends who somehow sink hours and hours into pay to win games. There are fake games, and even leagues, made specifically for people to bet on. To me ther

I've been doing some cal/QC functions recently after years not touching it. Since I last did it I've forgotten some of the knowledge that is just assumed. The answers to my questions are documented, but not in a places that i

Weird, I see no signs of food delivery being effectively outlawed. When I'm in a restaurant or passing by on foot or in my car. I'm not convinced that food delivery is a net good for a culture, but that is a different discussion.

I've seen this in Europe since I was pretty young as well. Usually they were little entries on the edge of the placemats that looked like classifieds. Advertising hotels, museums, and maybe shops? I can't fully picture them but I&

I know someone who started an elder care business with explicitly this purpose. He stopped working in the more conventional medical system because he saw an opportunity. Unsure how it is going at this point, I haven't checked in recent

Are there any places in the US where you could get the stock as easily? Ignoring the cost differences for now, I'm more thinking about where you might want to be if you wanted to build machines like this as a small business in the US.

Maybe you can volunteer to send a sample to the Living Snow Project next year! It looks like they have samples from California, I've missed my opportunity in the last few years due to family stuff. https://wp.wwu.edu/li

Yes! A friend and I were just talking about running through blogs and downloading songs in Songbird.

It seems unlikely that we can grow enough coffee in Puerto Rico and Hawaii to make up for the difference. It might be good for those producers though. Do you mean the lion's share of food imports or imports in general? Lots of seafood

Coffee and chocolate are not domestically produced, nor are bananas which are like the potatoes of the fruit world in terms of how productive they are. There are lots of nondiscretionary products that take a while to flow through to the poi

Interesting, I may need to try this out. I tend to have a similar approach but it sometimes results in keeping tabs open for along time, or dealing with a restore previous session everytime I start up. I keep bookmarks for specific things,

270Trillion kWh is about 1.5 × the total energy from the sun that hits the earth in one hour. I'm not sure if that helps, and the trillion-kilo is kinda gross.

Lots of fruit trees need an accumulated number of cold hours every year. I've seen warnings about some plantings already having issues with not producing enough fruit.

I was curious about how likely deaths actually are from Volcanoes in Iceland. It looks like 15 deaths in the last 500 years with an unknown number possibly in the hundreds in the 500 years before that. But also ~9000 deaths due to famine in

On the other hand I'd argue flatbread with something on it is one of the base foods. Whether it came before or after the dumpling/packet family is a fun discussion.

Are there any books or articles that discuss this that you think are worth reading and aren't too dense/academic? I find in interesting but I wouldn't say it is something I've studied.
