    • Gaia's Garden
    • Edible Forest Gardens (big text books!)
    • Teeming with microbes
    • I Contain Multitudes
    • Sproutlands: The endless gift of trees

    Not necessarily about herbs, per se, but if you want to try creating as much food from your land, these are good places to start. Ecology is important!

    Sounds like the other commenter got it. I'm commenting because the only time I've ever posted about a book o couldn't remember was "The Dark Lord of Derkholm" also by Diana Wynn Jones! Great book of you haven't read it. She wrote Howell's Moving Castle too.

    Until people stop and realize that the birds and the bees includes bugs. It's not like we can tell them where to be, but we sure as shit need them to exist.

    an estimated 476 million Indigenous peoples dwell on lands that are home to 80 percent of the world’s biodiversity.

    This seems important. This is a number not often talked about in aggregate, at least that I've seen. Recognizing my own dis-ease at feeling like I would have way underestimated that figure before reading.

    I second this. I have one small cup of strong black coffee in the morning since that's all I can take, and then I switch to a thermos of hot loose leaf mint tea -- probably 4 cups a day or more. It's just so much more interesting than water, and helps keep things settled

    Payment processing for a service that helps renters by paying their full rent upfront and then letting the resident pay back in smaller payments. There's a lot of similar infra (aws, plaid/mx, soft credit checks) and processes (payment aggregation & sending outgoing funds)

    I just read the FAQ, seems well designed. I work in the same space and their descriptions of how it will work makes a lot of sense. The system balances itself and can be super transparent, we'll see how it goes

    I immediately knew this was STS. Well done! Ironically my first response was to think you should tweet it at the devs... Maybe they have a mastodon account?

    When I was learning I used Heroku free tier to host sites/servers. I was also using the MERN stack and used a Heroku CLI tool to do deployments.

    Here's a step by step guide on freecodecamp.org for how to deploy an app to heroku. Hope it's helpful!

  • It's been very overcast and drizzling the last few days and these little 'manders absolutely love it at night. Pic taken this morning around 12:30am est. These salamanders were laid in January and are getting pretty close to being fully grown - 20 to 60 days in egg + 60 to 90 days to develop into adult form.

    This is an incisive look at simple living beyond the self from a quaker point of view. > When we practice simple living, we collectively say a resounding no to the consumerism, materialism, and waste of modern industrial society. > But how often do we ask ourselves whether our simple living actually does enable other people to live?

    We noticed a bright twinkling red star around 10:15 pm GMT-4 about 20° (complete estimate) above the horizon to the SE as seen from east coast USA. I googled it and matched up the rest of Scorpio that was visible, and thought I'd share some cool facts about Antares :)

    Was just hanging out around dusk this evening. The yarrow has been shooting up flower stalks for a few weeks now and is just about to open up. Exciting!

    Lots of frogs and salamanders. Pond is under the drip line of two 80 foot white oaks. In the fall I'm going to cover with brush to help keep acorns out: They dye the water brown with tannins. That being said, this past winter, very early January, I drained the pond to clean out the acorns and the refilled it (well water) and within two weeks spotted salamanders had started laying eggs!

    There are about 25 flowers/buds on new growth from this year! I pruned back the older growth and deadheaded it yesterday.

    In January of this year we had some very warm weather and I managed to come across a spotted salamander congress (like a murder of crows) and then they laid eggs for a few weeks and are now happy little axolotl looking things! The pond is just about a year old and is about 8x8 feet and ~3.5 ft deep at the deepest.

    Three generations of onions, all still connected and supporting each other -- fascinating!
