Ticket based (Jira) it's a rough estimate but we are getting 5x as many tickets completed since adopting our current workflow/set of skills. Obviously tickets aren't a standard unit of measurement but we attempt to keep them

I wish more people had a balanced view on this. Turning over all coding with no oversight, no research and planning, no validation, of course that's terrible code. I send FAR more tokens on the planning, research, and validation than o

Thing is that's overly simple thinking IMO, throwing off the cultural legacy literally means replacing it with something else. Culture has a legacy, what comes before, and it's literally impossible to not have one. So that Mohawk

Interesting bug: if you swipe on screen with the mouse button pressed and slide of screen to release the mouse button the on screen swipe action stays attached to the mouse cursor. Only sort of a bug because it's only because it runs i

I think it is slowing down, almost undeniably slowing down. Hitting a wall? I don't think that's fair but slowing down for sure. Which follows the tech hype process, an engineer(s) make great progress on a problem, an "idea&q

Funny that you say what on Earth are you comparing us to. It's just that Earth, look at the time it takes for purely biological evolution to take place. Flight is estimated to have first evolved 350 million years ago in insects, then d

Prove this, because I'm pretty certain this is not the case. I helped build a messaging app for iOS (Technically a TeleHeath app that needed to accept MMS/SMS also) and I saw absolutely none of this. That was a few years ago so it

Except Reddit doesn't have a product if they don't have people reading it. The TERRIBLE UI and user experience means that a percentage of users will only use reddit via 3rd-party apps. Apollo is BY FAR the best client. This isn&#x

It's really difficult to give you a useful answer. Some teams have succeeded and some have failed. It depends on the product, the team, and the user base. I've built and worked on both native mobile apps (swift and kotlin) and cro

I have production apps in the store with SwiftUI so it's not a fact at all. These are non-toy apps. UIKit is more mature but it hasn't matter at all in my experience.

Yeah, I'd agree with the underground part. Above ground vertical greenhouse's are absolutely viable but I'm not sure underground would make any sense. LED grow lights I'm using on Tower or aeroponics (Plants grown in tow

WHAT MATH?!?!? Electricity doesn't have any thing to do with it except in very tiny amounts. You need light coverage not heat wattage! There is no math to do! Photosynthesis doesn't work like that. It's a chemical reaction to

by jaegerpicker 4y ago
That's actually a good question, I have no experience with underground systems. Most are free standing greenhouses (about 10x more efficient (water and yield) that traditional farming per square foot). Electric is only a major cost for

by jaegerpicker 4y ago
In what way? Photosynthesis is about light wavelength's and water is easy to be more efficient since the plants are in water instead of soil. There are numerous successful commercial operations already. Also I've posted a ton of d

by jaegerpicker 4y ago
IT'S COMPLETELY IRRELEVENT, the efficiency at generating electricity is not what powers photosynthesis. It's a chemical reaction to light wavelengths (ie the absorbing of Red and Blue light) that powers it. More watt's doesn&

Wrong question to ask, PPFD's is the correct measure. It's not a direct energy comparison. Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction of Chlorophyll reacting to certain but not all light wavelength's (Red and Blue being the major

by jaegerpicker 4y ago
Except none of that matters, Solar Irradiance has very little to do with actual photosynthesis. You are measuring Watt's as a pure energy source, that's useless in this case. Photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD's) are wh

Below ground has trade offs, it's easier to use gravity flow designs but you lose all natural sunlight. Most of the time rain catchment systems on roof top vertical farms or free standing green houses are easier to design. There are al

Aquaponics and Hydroponics average 3-4x the growth rate and grow 24/7 (though you do need to provide lightless hours for proper fruiting). It's 100% viable and there are commercial operations right now.

Vertical farming is far less resource intensive, using LEDS powered by solar or wind and gravity flow designs. I posted this in another comment but here is very brief video talking about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5

This is completely misinformed, there are tons of vertical Hydroponic and aquaponic farms already in production that are thriving at much lower resource costs. Solar panels powering LED's and gravity flow water make a massive differenc

Especially when you use Hydroponics and Aquaponics, which are MUCH more efficient than traditional farming. Fresh fish/seafood and produce minutes after harvest is are completely different and better class of food!
