Gardening is expensive. Good I stopped at plants and didn't go for chickens. Every year is different. First you fight the snails on the strawberries. Then the aphids on peppers and roses (this is each year). Next the mold attacks the tomatoes. And if you don't have enough, the starling will eat your blueberries.
Re:Boolean Index Signature in TypeScript on Monday November 10, 2025 @05:23AM (#45874487)
Use type transformations like template literals and mapped types to enable boolean keys in TypeScript.

A more of a type challenge than a practical problem.

Re:Douglas Rushkoff: Crashing Technosolutionism [video] on Monday July 03, 2023 @02:16AM (#36569471)
The author seems to be caught up in a dream. There is substantial criticism on technological "solutions" and the author fails to address those.

Technology has been described as vicious circle previously as the problems it "solves" it (the technology) created in the first place, so it's not really going anywhere... and only grows (for its own sake?).

Distinguished authors like Ted Kaczynski wrote on this.

Plants love sun, why would I put them below a panel into shade.

Article mentions blueberries which I grow and those which get the sunshine only half of the day (partly in shade) don't have the same sweet taste as other in better sunny spots of my garden.

Most of the time we think we think, we actually listen.

Looking back at my teens years where I was addicted to porn, I would trade every video & cum for 1 real connection.
