How does this compare to rotating a regular monitor 90 degrees?

Well hardly surprising that a large manufacturer of "commuting devices" is against remote work.

Yes thank you for this clarification. Apologies for my being imprecise. Most of the reading I have done has been related to plants and the use of pesticides to intervene. https://www.jstor.org/stable/1149643 https:&#x

I 100% agree with you. You absolutely "can't resolve this kind of debate by simply saying "foreign bad" or "foreign good" Imagine we discover an alien planet with no predators. Should we allow ecological mergin

"Someone in the field"? I'm sorry but an anonymous comment on good reads, should not hold the same weight as a book that references academic papers. In any case it isn't as black and white as "Invasive = Bad" o

I've referenced articles and books in my other comments, and you're calling it myth. Care to cite something that supports what you claim?

The book referenced actually provides numbers on this. Invasives out competing local species is a rarity according to the studies referenced in the book. Here is another perspective too: https://www.vox.com/down-to-earth&#x2

Kind of, the idea is that no species would be invasive if we didn't create the ideal place for it to thrive. Invasives mostly thrive in disturbed areas and don't actually displace natives. The book I referenced goes into way more

The bugs are not at fault here. The people who created the environment for them to thrive are. Edit After Downvote: I get it - They were a major nuisance to you. Lanternflys weren't a one time thing. This has happened before - remember

When I see this article and the state announcement, I think of the Robert Pirsig Quote: "If a revolution destroys a systematic government, but the systematic patterns of thought that produced that government are left intact, then those

Does this have anything to do with GraphQL or developers just not understanding security and role/authorization?

Totally. But not in software. Take a look at Code Complete: Chapter 25. Does a way better job explaining this than I could in a comment box.

P.S. Thoughts: This might be the case for software engineering, but might break down in other domains and should be applied carefully elsewhere. For example recycling plastic is your responsibility - but what if your city burns plastic recy

They are 100% doing it. A lot of really bright people work on the engines/compilers. The problem is telling individuals to focus on optimization. Let's use javascript as an example. Say you need to transform an array. You can use

I'm sure this is really well intended, but the individualization of environmental guilt is a major problem. [0] Where I agree with the article is to use tools like lighthouse and write code that uses the language properly. It is absolu

You don't need to go that far to see fragile splendor. The fragile splendor is here all around us. Svalbard is the canary in the coal mine.

Really great read. Long but worth it. This is a good critique of low-code/no-code in general. The root problem I see of "Unfortunately, when we frame the problem space that way, we have allowed our tools to think for us." is

Doesn't this further centralize something that's supposed to be decentralized?

You answered my question, thank you! I meant irresponsibly. I assumed these are super safe considering a ton of farms have access wells to hot water in Iceland.

by jefflombardjr 5y ago
I don't know why this isn't done more in the US. At least with thermal water, my understanding is that you don't need huge temperature differentials and this is cost effective on a pretty small scale.

by jefflombardjr 5y ago
Is there a way to access the heat potential irresponsibly? Clarification: I mean of course if you create a volcano in the wrong spot that would be bad, but like if you're drilling for thermally heated ground water can stuff go wrong?

“ When it comes to climate change everyone here knows how to fix it: stop eating cows, use solar batteries, build you own windmill, grow your own food, jog... and other simple things.” I couldn’t disagree more. This is one of the biggest fa

You should reach out to this permaculture community! When I was working with them there was talk about opensourcing some of the work they did to help other similar communities. https://twitter.com/PhillyYardens
