NZ does well though: fruits, dairy, meat, vegetables and legumes Says a bit about Nature reviewers if the paper misses out a country that would have impact on the key points in the abstract

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

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 p

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

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 pr

Interesting - but no audio on a pretty generic version of Ubuntu 23.10 Looks like it needs Jack rather than Pipewire

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

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 wh

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 hi

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 sy

Interviewed at a company recently, who were very keen to take on a senior dev, as they had a lot of 'juniors'. Their interview process boiled down to 'we want you to take hackerrank'. At which point I basically decided t

I'm very pleased to see optional chaining come with Chrome 80. It's been a language feature I've been wanting for a while and in combination with the nullish coalescing operator, setting defaults for undefined becomes a lot m

Yes. I think “megafire” is another one. These are all very sobering terms.

Yes. It’s not a term that I’ve ever heard before.

Climate change is going to introduce new terminology to our lexicon. Pyro-cumulonimbus is probably one of these new terms.

I don’t think the term POJOs is used anywhere outside the Java community.
