It might not be exactly what you are looking for but we find the comments in Baker Creek[1] extremely useful. Generally we look for people commenting who live near buy or in similar climates and use that in guiding what plants to go with.

I've been getting early release PDFs of this book for a while now. I highly suggest it for moving from beginner to getting serious. I still think the Rust book is a better first read, but this is much more in depth and detailed. One

Not really. All the parts that would be damaged by that are designed to be replaced. My girlfriend did the same to her bike not too long ago. I spent about $80 and an afternoon to get it back in shape. I've never tried to find parts

I used it's S3 module for a project a few months ago. I remember the API feeling a bit awkward and non-idiomatic, but I also got the impression that the API was emulated another language's AWS API. I don't know if that is t

I took extra time to finish mine too. I just put the year I graduated on it and not how long it took. It's never come up and couldn't imagine it being an issue if it did. A computer science degree is a serious challenge. There
