We use paraquat quite a bit in a way that we never actually exposed to the chemical. I imagine our procedures are quite different to how it was handled even 10 or 20 years ago.

I had an idea to sort of automate this process or even a user aided wizard as a product but never to round to the mvp. Still an ok idea I think as satellite imagery on wall is great talking point. It can be beautiful, dramatic, always chang

No till farming is widespread especially in Australia for decades. Nearly all dryland farms take this approach. It just means controlling fallow weeds without tillage, usually with herbicide. Then plant straight through the previous crop re

I love the enthusiasm, but is this another Google thing that is for researchers only? Yes fantastic technology etc, but say you develop something on the infrastructure then go to commercialise, what do you do? I don't know much about t

What are suggested online courses to learn about multi variable time series forecasting? My skill level is - ok with university level Biometrics but that was 10+ years ago, and I am web/self-taught python for web apps and automating GI

Also I'd like to be able to read the reddit comment without having to leave the site if possible. Am liking it though, already been down a few rabbit holes. Good stuff.

Hey nice idea- I am looking at building a dashboard style web app like yours. Have you used any frameworks here or rolled your own? - I am on mobile or id take a closer look myself.

PostGIS can write to GeoJSON so you can have a simple flask or bottlepy webserver to query the db. Then use leaflet GeoJSON layer to pull down the data and render it on map. There is of course the newer vector tiles which is a better solut

I read that blog post. Such a good example. But there is even a comment in there warning about raster via database. I am going to try it out as well with some MODIS data. I wonder what needs to be done to make raster more performant in POST

I love PostGIS. I have used it in many projects. PostGIS raster is really interesting to me but the general sentiment is that it's a bit slow and only use it if you need to. It just seems so powerful to combine raster and vector with S

For someone not overly ear to the ground culturally this is a rabbit hole. The Youtube one fascinates me. I've not heard of most but imagine there are hundreds of interesting stories behind every item. Interesting work and concept. Wel

Thanks. I wrongly assumed OVH would as you describe AWS, especially when setting up an 'instance' in their 'public cloud'. I just a quick look at their Vrack product to see if it links instances to object storage. Doesn&

Does this seem odd to others? Does AWS give 'local' access speed to s3 from EC2 on same locations?

OVH sees it's object store as public traffic from VPS and Public Cloud?(reddit.com)

Very cool. I'd like to tile vertically/horizontal. Also snap to edge takes up half screen like on Windows OS.

If Excel is as popular as everyone says it is, why don't we see more of the javascript addins? Excel as a platform makes sense to me. If I'm in Excel where all my data is, I want to import more external data or publish data extern

I've just started testing this on a side project as I got a bit excited about htmx. I like the idea of forming HTML templates in Flask/Jinja2 so the hyperscript/htmx toolset should be a good fit. I don't really have much

I like this idea. I spend a bit of time sitting on tractors. When you run out of good podcasts, audiobooks temptation is to scroll HN, Twitter. This would be better.

Cool. Read this with interest. I want to give Nim a shot. Is there a compiled Windows binary of your program I can try out?

I like it, but how is it funded? Can I submit a site to be indexed?

I Like the example RSS app ( https://github.com/do-community/rss-reader-api ) that DO provide. It's Django REST Framework but without a lot of the 'magic'. I reckon the DRF docs should link to it as a good

I never really got the modern web app stack and Typescript/javascript compiling until I was forced to use it through Angular CLI. Then it sort of all made some sense. Having a defined structure in a complex stack helps novice people a

Can anyone nominate an Australian equivalent to mcmaster.com ? I am prototyping something and would love to have a lost of available parts to troll through with prices.

For me the most interesting disruption is the low cost L1/L2 GPS such as Ardusimple combined with OpenAgGPS ( https://github.com/farmerbriantee/AgOpenGPS ) offers an alternative autosteer solutions that are currentl

Winamp is great, ah the memories. But just like my gripe with video media, is there anywhere to buy plain mp3s for all artists, store them on my hdd and manage them in winamp? Is that still an option in 2020 without a subscription to someth

Who is this intended for? IE3, who would still be using this? Don't get me wrong. Great achievement, just curious.
