I did ignored all the modern js frameworks for a long time, so for me Vue is jquery replacement, I like that you can use it in lightweight way and mix it into legacy apps.

Well, since 70s we learned a lot about the soil ecology. We can talk about N, which plant can't access directly. Roots have to produce different substances that are eaten by various organism in soil and they then break the N into form

Nature of this work is very seasonal, so harvest month is anything but calm and unhurried. Those field days I described are my favorite, but there are many other type of days in life of farmer.

I guess my wording was wrong, there was no worrying about fathers at all. I just can't wrap my head about how all the people are doing it. You can't just leave that small kid somewhere, is there some way of taking unpaid leave or

As a father of 11 month old, I can't imagine how people can live with just 6 or even 16 weeks of maternity leave. Even after almost one year it feels like care is (at least) full time job, which would be quite hard to outsource. In my

I checked datasheet and resolution is something like 25nm, not that great for most common application. Those Hamamatsu micro-heads are about 14nm (which is still not good), commercial benchtop instruments around 4nm.

There is even Si-Ware FTIR MEMS sensor. It is quite pricey (more then 1K USD) and resolution is not that great, but pricey will drop eventually and it might be good enough for some applications.

Hamamatsu (Japanese optical engineering company) is offering micro-spectrometer heads, which are quite affordable (at least those for VIS spectrum) and easy to work with and they are much more precise than other DIY solutions.

It is a bit more complicated than that. There are two classes of problems in spectroscopy: qualitative (trying to identify what the sample is) and quantitative (deciding concentrations of one or more analyte in sample). Qualitative is quite

I am in Europe and there is just not that much of a land available. Also the rules are different here: you can plant vineyards just at designated areas, which are fixed and cannot be expanded further. That means you have to buy land with vi

Too little, about 1 hectare (2.5 acres) in the production. Buying more land is quite hard as there is not much of it for sale, but I am trying to accumulate it slowly. I am also planting new vineyards, but it takes about 5 years (+ 3 years
