If you plant something and nothing is eating it, it is not part of the ecosystemand might as wellbe made of platic. I plant native flowers and it is so gratifying seeing the abundance of life thriving on even the smallest plant. I also plant edible foods because I need to eat as well!

I don't know the opinions of this particular speaker but my feelings towards the actions of the Israeli government make me opposed to any business relationship with that country until they end their genocide against Gaza.

AerisWeather is another option https://www.aerisweather.com/develop/api/. Disclaimer, I just started working with these weather nerds. It's a great place though, with a product and company run by developers. I recommend if you are looking for lots of neat features or need accuracy.


Lots of great interviews on interesting subjects with experts. This guy deserves way more views!


As the old adage says, even a broken clock is right twice a day.


Pretty nasty still it seems.


I think the idea is that he was not any nastier than the rest of Roman society, and in some cases possibly less so.
