I take 3 weeks in a row every summer, couldn't live without it.

The x-ray scans are interesting, I didn't knew the canvas was taped together from 33 smaller ones.

There's this YouTube channel called "soiboi soft"[0] that is doing many experiments with air-powered soft robotics and microfluidics.

It's a pretty cool concept and might have interesting albeit niche applications.

Very pretty. Would be cool if the Moon followed the real Moon phases (if the sky is clear enough to see it). For example April 2nd is full moon and the sky is clear so the Moon in your Sundial should be full too.

New comment by world2vec in "Earthquake scientists reveal how overplowing weakens soil at experimental farm"

world2vec — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 13:58:13 +0000

In my parents' farm the compost comes from cleaning up the forest around it (trim branches, vegetation, dying trees, etc) mixed with the chicken and goat manure plus whatever else gets mixed in there (food leftovers, ashes, coffee grounds, etc). Of course it's at a small-ish scale (less than 1 hectare) but my parents definitely don't denude 4 hectares to do so.

At some point it's more a "weird shaped airplane flies close to the water" than a sailing boat. It sure does look super cool tho.

I just finished the book and it did not live up to all its hype. Quite boring, actually.
