The needlessly exclusive nature of the Ivy League underpins a gross fear of the elites in the egality of education. America, for example, is a socialist nation as soon as your income hits a certain level. They look out + take care of each o

The trees are rotting from the inside. That's a complex issue and doesn't sound like it's from warming. Old live oaks can suffer a similar fate, and the issue is usually caused by stress on the tree impacting the tree's

We have been omnivores for tens of thousands of years. Part of the reason we were so successful at colonizing the planet was due to our omnivorous nature. People with a vegan ideology (not just a vegan diet) have an exceptionally narrow com

I have decided to eat less meat because I can't afford to consistently purchase cuts from pastured animals, and I don't have the capacity currently to hunt or raise animals myself. I just can't afford to eat chicken that is p

Many people don't understand how quickly fire spreads when it is so dry out. A single ember or piece of hot ash in the wind can create a huge fire in less than a minute. We are in drought conditions already this year, and we had to mov

> There is an economy of scale and efficiency in building large prefab pieces of a house on a factory, as opposed to the ad-hoc local conditions. This is only true if you are building 1 home. If you are building 25 or 100 homes, on-site

Someone I know is looking into building tiny home communities for the impoverished. He has not been impressed by the available resources. Overwhelmingly, these tiny/modular homes are hype. If you want to build a tiny home (or really an

Why? The entire point of a startup is to combine capital and labor in a way that is likely to fail on the off chance that it succeeds wildly. You greatly leverage your capital and labor resources in an attempt to come skidding afire to a sa

Watering at nightfall when the ambient temperature is below 70F is a recipe for rot as well. When it's cold, you water in the morning. When it's hot, you water at night.

This seems like an interesting visualization. This is "neat," but that was the goal - it was designed to be neat, and so it is neat. That's quite antithetical to the general idea of the emergent properties of things like Conw

I live in a bee-friendly wildflower meadow. It is a 3 acre flowery paradise. I haven't seen a single honey bee this year. Not a one. Fewer carpenter bees and even wasps than usual. It's concerning.

If the Bugatti is free, why not use it? Unity is very easy to use, and it gets easier over time. They keep making paid features free, and once ECS is mature (in the UI, I know it's production ready), I think it's going to have a h

In this day and age, and especially as I grow older, I have more and more respect for men (and women) who look good, almost in a platonic fashion. Attractiveness is a summation of multiple fitness factors, and overall those factors have bee

I have tried out Godot and many, many other game engines in the past. They aren't there yet. Even as a hobbyist, I find Unity much more easy to use, and even still I'm tempted to learn Unreal simply because it seems more powerful

Making the right decision is easy. Winning the internal political battles to nurture that decision to production is sisyphean, especially when the alternative is falling in line, not taking risks, and collecting a paycheck.

I think that, as more people look into the events of January 6th, they will find that the opportunity for violence was very small. Not a single protestor had a firearm. Most protestors did not enter the capitol, most of them didn't eve
