Hey, @npub1dgp…ka3a
Seeing as you're my new gardening expert, could you maybe suggest a remedy for an alarming increase in little gnats showing up on soil around my herbs? Not insane number, but enough where you see them buzz around just by waving your hand close to soil.
Guessing fungal gnats from overwatering (I over feed pets too, what can I say) based on research.

Equilibria are a bit of an illusion that nothing is happening. For example, chemical reactions settling in some equilibrium state just means the forward and backward reaction rates are matched, but lots of tiny reactions are happening in either direction.
Read this once, thought I'd share even if it's kind of missing the point of this convo

What a great dad. I knew someone who let their kid go to bed with an iPad from a very young age. "He just can't fall asleep without it." Kid would be in there with glowing screen waaay past reasonable hours. Fast forward a few years and the kid has serious behavioral issues. Like legit concerning ones

Speaking of scaling. This is apparently a classic Feynman lecture (so much so that he gave it here a second time 25 years later), that I just watched all about scaling (not volume so much), and is where I got the combustion engine comment from.

2025-04-01 21:30:17

- reply

It is cool to think about. I read that the whole "ants can lift 50x their weight" thing has more to do with scaling than superhuman strength.
And recently I learned that a combustion engine could not work if you shrank it down to a tiny motor, because of how the heat escape scaled compared to the volume.

2025-04-01 21:25:38

Spheres have the best volume to surface area ratio of any 3D structure. Kind of intuitively obvious once you think about it

I assume it's legal to attack network. If successful price should crash. Shorts become profitable, and could in theory cover cost of attack.

How much would you say you spend or how many beans go in 8 oz? I paid 25 for three big beans. Asked the person to weigh and it was like .35oz only! Directions call for 1oz minimum!! Am I missing something?

2025-03-29 17:45:53

Have a fancy spice store I figure will do. Madagascar sounds good. The link you gave didn't specify what technique to use, but from other thing I read thinking simply slice bean and submerge at room temp, shake once a week or so, 6-12 months it's usable.
You'd mentioned possibly starting with making paste, but gonna keep it simple (and maybe better tasting way?).

To be precise, one spot that stuck out to me is around 4:14. Feels like cymbal is dragging the beat just slightly. Could be wrong. Maybe you're staring at digital output and can probably show it's dead on

You know, that's funny I wasn't sure if I was confused or not yesterday when I was wondering "hey, moderat and modeselektor are awful similar...". Now it makes sense! Heard some apparat back in day but couldn't pick a song out most likely. Siriusmo one of my fave quirky producers
As for production feedback, take with grain of salt, I don't have some trained ear at all. For me was the balance between best/bass and higher notes, and maybe a lil bit of misalignment between the two here or there. Nothing major.
That's great you can bust out a whole listenable track in part of a day. That's the dream

2025-03-28 20:10:33

- reply

Not bad at all. Would it be correct to assume you polished this one less than previous tracks I heard? Given that you just made yesterday I would assume so. Sounds a bit rougher, but not distractingly so.
Not that it's THAT similar, but beginning reminded me of this song I like

Thanks for the info! 2 years is such a long wait, but I do love me some good vanilla 🤔
Couldn't zap, tried twice, sorry!

2025-03-28 18:55:03

- reply

Don't know much about vanilla bean, but what I read suggested they be double-fold beans, whatever that means. Also, while vodka is recommended they said bourbon tasted "divine".
Have you done this a lot and found yours to be the winning recipe (dark bean and that label of vodka)?

While it’s definitely Orwellian what they want to do, there’s a grain of truth from the Europeans I’ve known, that they tend to invest too little (largely don’t even consider it like we do in states)
