If you all did split and there was a dispute between you too, the government (courts) are still how things would get settled, no? Marriage I believe is just a form of contract. I believe you can write you own binding legal marriage contra

I brew up and spray compost tea in 5 gallon batches. A machine that would continuously brew tea and go walk around the garden spraying it everywhere would be pretty cool. But also far more of a niche.

I am planning on getting 75 yards of wood chips delivered to mulch an orchard we are putting in. For me the mulching robot will be a bobcat I rent to help spread it :) For reference, 75 yards of wood chips (3 tractor trailer loads) + bobcat

You can use cardboard or a few layers of newsprint to broadly cover things, and then cover that with thick layer of straw or wood chips. It has huge benefits for water retention, weed prevention, as well as providing carbon to be broken dow

I was just responding to the video, which seems to clearly be an unmulched home garden. So I am assuming from their marketing that is the application they are targeting.

Commercial organic farms mulch heavily, which nicely controls weeds. Non organic farms spray. Home gardeners apparently aren't mulching, which has myriad other benefits besides weed control. I love robots, but mulch is a much better s

Your experience is very unevenly distributed, at least for the second item. Around here, restaraunts, car washes, and retailers will hire anyone, they all have signs up. The car wash starts at $15/hr...good teenager money. I was just

At least some portion of attorneys, like my wife, work as in house counsel and therefore do actually have efficiency as a nominal goal.

I should note - yes, my wife sees no problem at all with this workflow. My understanding of the workflow is that they will send a clean copy as well as the redline to each other. Sometimes someone will in response further modify the wrong

My wife is a corporate attorney. They pass drafts of contracts around by email using MS word with change tracking enabled. Some sort of attorney targeted simple revision tracking front end using git would be a mighty step forward.

Network capacity is a continual bottleneck, and many billions are spent to upgrade the transport network yearly. Transport signals have gone from 2.5G to 10G to 40G to 100G to 200G per wave, and from 8 waves to 16 waves to 40 waves to 96 wa

My point is that other currencies are not static. All the world economies are jockeying to have relatively weak currencies, in order to attempt to spur inflation and ease their debt loads. It's all relative. The US is not in some p

and yet the dollar is not substantially weakened vs other currencies, it is quite strong. This isn't a dollar specific phenomenon at all. It seems a more appropriate statement would be destruction of all currencies purchasing power.

I know that I also dont maintain a lot of close friendships outside my family and SO. I am relatively self contained and don't seek a lot of advice or counsel. In that sense I'm very much a lazy friend as well, I don't want

I should add because I try my best to talk freely about it - I decided to deal with my social anxiety by going to a therapist. She had me go through the exposure therapy, and after about 3 months of going once a week and talking with her,

I used to feel much like this. After dealing with my social anxiety, I looked at it in a different light - that there isn't any pressure to make friends. It's more about just enjoying the time you are with other people. It might

I thought the problem (in the US) was that At&T or Verizon don't want this model to work, and don't make the plans attractive, so you end up paying more for the phone and still end up paying the same overburdened service cost. Also, tha

>Consumption taxes are regressive because they penalize the spenders. Bill Gates doesn't spend nearly as much money as he earns and as such pays a lower effective tax rate than someone who makes $30,000 a year and spends it all to suppo

that is why the "fair tax" where everyone receives an equal rebate to cover a certain base level of spending has merit. 15% tax rate applied at point of sale universally. Say $20K in spending per person is exempt. Each person receives reb
