In the late 90s I had this. Drilled a hole in my bedroom floor to put the pipes under the house (my dad didn’t seem to mind!). Found a local fabricator that let me use his mill to make a water cooling block. Good times.

Yeah I had chronic asthma as well, I was hospitalised multiple times and I'd been on medication for 16yrs. I learnt the techniques and over 6months as I felt comfortable I was able to reduce my medication. You'd be mad to just sto

24yrs ago I took a Buteyko breathing course. Basically cured my asthma, I went about 16yrs without taking medication (this was down from taking around 4 doses per day). I've had a few flare ups in the last few years due to environmenta

This looks fun but is this gambling with real money?

I like both mithril and hyperdom (probably prefer hyperdom really) but why on earth would I want to use either of those when react is so popular?

The reason they are less safe is because our infrastructure is setup for massive lumps of steel. I'm not suggesting driving lightweight vehicles on roads. I'm suggesting changing the roads so they are optimised for lightweight veh

Sure, so a combination of on demand and better scheduling. Lightweight electric transport (ebikes, scooters, golf carts? etc.) Obviously implementation depends a lot upon the local geography/density/weather etc. Definitely not pro

Well I agree people should work locally and communities should be organised to facilitate that. > Moreover, the usage is different. What I am suggesting is in an effort to force/encourage different usage (que communist/fascist

Maybe the infrastructure that is in place to support cars could pivot to public transport? We could replace some/all lanes on motorways/interstates with train tracks. Reduce roads in cities to one way and install trams in the othe

I was under the impression that guy was paid by like the Belgium meat board or something. I can't find the reference to that right now so might be wrong. (I came across him in another thread where it was discussed)

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I absolutely agree with you regarding regenerative agriculture and moving towards a plant based diet. We have to do that so we can stop destroying the soil and can actually produce food with adequate nut

You are right that there is no political will right now. We need to make it happen. Historically non violent direct action has been successful in changing politics (see womens suffrage, civil rights movement). This is the primary goal of th

From everything I've researched the opposite is true. Properly managing grasslands (which used to happen naturally with large herds) makes for health grasses which develop root systems, create soil and sequester carbon. Poorly managed

One of the things I find interesting about Carbon Engineerings process is that it requires a lot of heat to separate the captured carbon from the fluid (I forget what the fluid is called). Last I heard they were using natural gas for this (

I've been watching waay too many youtube videos about reforestation, agriculture and land management recently and I think I've learned a little from it (links at the end). We no longer have the number of massive herds of animals t

I think weird cyclical state changes are a feature of your chosen framework. For instance I worked on an angular (1.x) project where we would routinely have these issues - in fact they were well documented. We ported the project to hyperdom

> With React there's no weird "v-if ng-if" template logic that you have to grapple with. To me, Handlebars already gave me enough taste of how horrible and limiting maintaining template logic outside of components is. Reac

Hmm not sure why that wikipedia article calls it geothermal, you need 0 geothermal activity to take advantage of the temperature difference in the earth.

I agree. The more alternatives to react and angular the better. React has a massive API for what is something essentially quite simple. Personally my favourite "alternative" rendering library is hyperdom. Fast, simple and just get

I was hoping they were going to simplify the lifecyles but it looks like they are adding more. Since I switched to hyperdom[0] I haven't missed lifecycles at all. In fact my app has practically none of the "plumbing" code tha

Over the last few years I've found fast full stack tests to be invaluable in facilitating a rapid rate of development. I've yet to implement this approach but it sounds like the next logical step for me. Disappointing to see you d
