Yep. Just got the email. Still worth it not to see ads on youtube at work. You never know what will pop in there.

Love Brave for the simple fact that it blocks most of the ads on Hulu+. Not all but most.

Same. The value for me is there. If nothing else to have a "window" in my cube where one monitor streams 4k outdoor videos. The tipping point for me were when visually nsfw ads popped up during these outdoor videos representing

We have on a limited scale...honestly grass growth has been a problem. With corn...works fine. With bush beans the grass grows too much and we are forced to weedeat/cut etc. since we can't put animals in with it. Squash we got

Good to see you moved to Georgia. We did about 20 years ago. Biggest difference I have seen lately in the tech scene is there are a lot more jobs outside of Atlanta. The salary/cost of living cannot be beaten (lived in MT, AZ, ID, S

The farm we purchased 6+ years ago is just starting to see fireflies and bats come back. We look at dusk visible bats to gauge our bug population. We stopped spraying and are allowing fields to go back to a mixture of natives and grasses.

For me it was moving to the rural South and buying a farm. Animals die if I don't feed or water them. It gives me a daily reset. That and I took a job that I feel ethically pushed to do for my 8-5. Just what worked for me. I hope

I remember we had an "underdesk" VAX running some proprietary software for scanning and cataloging drill samples in a metallurgy office in an open pit mine in Montana back in the 90s. The thing just worked. Power regularly went

Mines I have worked at in the US only provided meals when you were travelling. Although unlimited double brew and a plugin for every truck/car in the parking lot was provided. Can't speak for oil and gas.

Thoughtworks keeps a "technology radar" that I have found very interesting. I won't post the "whys" but it's worth looking for upcoming components and tech that they are seeing used more in consulting. https:
