Resilience Thinking, by Walker and Salt, is a concise and clear presentation of what makes complex things resilient, and how it can go wrong. I see the ideas from there everywhere from ecosystems to business. This one really made it much ea

Yes, that's absolutely correct, and is actually part of the point I was attempting to make. I grow vegetables and fruits at small-farm scale (1-3 acres in production generally) in a way that I'd call organic if the term wasn'

Slightly tangential, but regarding the definition of "natural," I personally prefer to think in terms of concentrates. The chemicals in question exist in nature in many cases, or at least there is a similar naturally occurring com

I have a spice blend that I made for flavoring beans that has kind of become a new staple at the table. It's about half tomato powder, maybe a quarter hot red chile powder, and equal parts cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, and oregan

There are still choices to be made with finite time. Do you spend extra time helping your son understand his algebra and let the laundry accumulate for a day? Do you spend the time to cook from scratch or spend the extra money to buy prepar

Personally, I've found a couple of things that probably aren't what you're looking for, but have been important lessons for me. The first thing is that I found that pushing too much too early is a lot of work and has very lit

I live in tick central, and for anyone else in that situation who doesn't already have a tick mitigation strategy, here's what I do (and I'd love to hear other things that work that aren't on the list): 1. Clear all debr

I probably have an unpopular view on this, but this isn't the point for me. I don't think people are evil for not working. In fact, if I could manage it, I'd skip it myself. Working is hard work, and I'd prefer to do le

Here's another part that I think contributes to the "... inequality persists in part because individuals are not averse enough to inequality,” based on my own perception of the situation in my part of the country. I think people a

Slightly off-topic, but I have a friend who does training for active shooter response (he goes around to schools and large businesses and teaches people what seems to work best for saving lives in these situations). When I see things like &

I have the full 20-ish volume print edition, which is fun to peruse sometimes if you have the shelf space for it. I got mine used for somewhere in the neighborhood of $100 on ebay, so you might check there.

For anyone else in my position, who thought that AC won because it was inherently more efficient for transmission, the Wikipedia page [1] has a nice overview of HVDC. There's also this PDF from Siemens[2] with some data. Interesting po

That sounds fascinating to me - is there any way you could elaborate a bit on the specifics of a typical class structure (how many/how long, were exercises limited to the subject at hand or more integrated with other topics, etc)? I&#x

I was going to write exactly this, but you beat me to it. My whole family (me, spouse, two kids aged 5 and 8) train four days a week and we all love it. I get bored easily with other exercise, but so far have never had that problem with Jiu

You may be right at this time, but the suggested fix feels a lot like plagiarizing the work of Wikipedia editors. It takes significant work to gather sources and turn them into an informative article. I believe that work should be recognize

We like Set, too. We also play a similar game called Qwirkle (played by laying tiles in interlocking groups). Qwirkle is played in turns, so some of that pressure of not being fast enough is eliminated. I play a game with the creative name

I can second this, with a minor caveat. My daughter (third grade) loves these books, and we get a lot of good problem-solving into the curriculum as a result. The caveat, in my opinion, is that they don't provide enough cyclic review i

One thing that I think is frequently overlooked is that a person with a year's worth of food stored up also has enough to feed the whole neighborhood for a week if necessary, which might make a really big difference for a lot of people
