I always disliked Orcad. Especially because cadence had excellent software that predated OrCAD, and for reasons that I cannot fathom chose to promote OrCAD after they acquired it instead of the better software.

Here's a specific example in the interface. If you wanted to draw a wire, the keyboard shortcut of the old software was 'w' but orcad required you to type 'ctrl + w'. Why are you forcing me to use control when w doesn't do anything on its own? It was filled with similar tiny annoyances that just slowed things down. (Admittedly, it's been years since that was my primary work, and free stuff is good enough for what I do now.) I sincerely hope that orcad has continued to improve over the years.

Kicad is an excellent free schematic capture and simulation software.

> the U.S. Forest Service reports that kudzu occupies, to some degree, about 227,000 acres of forestland

I quickly verified this statistic. But I know that "forestland" is a specific category of land. What about non-forestland? How many acres of kudzu are there on land that is not considered forestland?

> experts estimate that kudzu covers another 500,000 acres in the South’s cities and suburbs

I found this statistic about 500,000 acres quoted in several places, but didn't find which experts came up with that number. Still, it was very quick to find double the acreage in one specific type of non-forestland.

That doesn't even begin to touch non-forestland countryside (i.e. non-city, non-suburb)

The US Forest Service estimates that kudzu adds 2,500 acres each year. US Department of Agriculture estimates that it spreads by 150,000 acres per year. I don't think this is a discrepancy, just that each agency is looking at specific land types and uses.

It seems like this article is seriously cherry picking data to make it seem like kudzu is less of an issue.

Also interesting -- look at the trade volume during the big moves, like 3-June. There's no way retail investors are causing that much volume, especially when it's during pre-market and post-market trading hours.

This sounds like a commercial operation. They're obeying the law, staying below 400ft, and operating in a rural area. It seems like the news articles are doing their best to make this sound bad when there's nothing nefarious going on.

I don't see any claims in the article that the odors entered the building via the sewer pipes. What makes you think that was the path that the odors followed? It could have just as easily been through an open window, or the pipe work could have been near an HVAC intake for the building.
