Fun With NFC Cards
I’ve been messing around with NFC cards and trying to figure out if I should just self-roll my own virtual business card (like Popl.co and Dot).
I’m a big business networker. I’ve been an entrepreneur for more than 18 years. (Yikes!)
I do love a good business card, but I’m also intrigued, and have been for a while, with the NFC tap card business cards.
It’s actually not that difficult to do and the way around the NFC vcard blockage on iOS is to host the vcard on a web server and directly link to it via a button.
And the best way to get the other person’s contact info is to setup a contact form on your links page for them to exchange the contact info with you.
So instead of paying for Popl.co on a monthly/yearly basis or one time for Dot, etc. maybe spin up your own. I’m tempted to do that.
I’ll report back.

Producing #EnvironmentallyFriendly #Fertilizer from Human #Urine
Apr 30, 2020"Dr. Adey Desta, an Ethiopian Scientist has successfully produced an environmental friendly fertilizer from human urine. Unlike the synthetic fertilizers in the market, Dr. Adey's research has produced a cheap, water insoluble fertilizer that guards against leaching which in turn contaminates Rivers, Lakes, underneath water table etc. during rainy seasons."

The World and I chat for time to time and occasionally we record that conversation for posterity.
I quite like the World. I mean, not just to live on, but to talk to. I find it refreshingly honest. It says what it means. It doesn’t beat around the bush. I may not always like what it has to tell me but I have to respect it.
And I would be a fool not to listen.

Hello (applied) statisticians and biostatisticians,
I am the Agricultural Research Biostatistician based at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada's Lethbridge Research and Development Centre.
What should I do to make my applied statistics job (i.e., my Performance Agreement) more environmentally-friendly and based on nature-centered values?

This article also discusses making home-made weed killer from vinegar and soap, but be careful when applying it... Don't apply to flowering plants, and apply at night after the bees have gone home.
#EcoFriendly and #EnvironmentallyFriendly #WeedKiller: Does It Exist?
By Stephanie Osmanski
Updated July 20 2020,Excerpt:
"Another eco-friendly alternative to weed killer is enlisting the help of animal friends. Good for the environment and entirely non-toxic, goats can scarf down any unwanted weeds from #kudzu, #OrientalBittersweet, and #ailanthus to #MultifloraRosa, #JapaneseHoneysuckle, and mile-a-minute."In fact, some companies — such as #Ecogoats and #GoatsEatWeeds — even rent out goats to homeowners that want eco-friendly help controlling their unwanted noxious weeds. Because a goat’s least favorite food is grass, a goat will eat everything else first before munching on your lawn."

Cleaning and Using Sheep #Wool for Insulation
Posted on July 29, 2020 by Laurence Manchee
Excerpt: "Benefits of sheep wool insulation
Sheep’s wool is an outstanding insulator with as good or better insulation properties as #RoofMate or #RockWool. As opposed to shop-bought insulation the homemade wool is not processed into compact blocks. The loose wool can be pushed into small gaps and does not need to be cut to size, making it is easier to work with.
Sheep’s wool is more #EnvironmentallyFriendly, is not itchy to work with and is fireproof. It regulates humidity, does not burn, purifies the air and is a good sound proofer.
All in all, it is better than any #insulation we have used in the past and is more cost-effective."

Finally finished switching my blog to #jekyll, which is super light, #EnergyEfficient (and thus more #EnvironmentallyFriendly), and lets me get into the back-end nitty-gritties armed only with a vague notion of #HTML coding from teenage years spent on #LiveJournal. Major props to @RyanChartier for enabling me; if you ask him very nicely, he might help you make a simple, lean #webpage, too. (seriously, give him a shout if you're interested)

The '#EnvironmentallyFriendly alternative' way #Dominion Energy is cutting 40 acres of grass 'every few days'
By: Ellen Ice
Posted 9:01 AM, Aug 03, 2024CHESAPEAKE, Va. — "At #SolarFarms in #Chesapeake and #VirginiaBeach, Dominion Energy has found an alternative option to a lawn mower; this one has hooves.
"'It’s an environmentally-friendly alternative, it’s innovative, it’s creative and they do a great job,' said spokesperson Tim Eberly. 'They can eat about 40 acres of grass and vegetation every few days.'
"The flock of 300 sheep and 180 lambs is tended to by a shepherd, along with guard dogs and herding dogs.
“'Our guardian dogs are with the sheep all the time," said Jess Gray with Gray's #Lambscaping. 'They protect the flock when we are not around.'"
[..]
"The goal of the project is to keep the grass below the panels to maximize output. At Bedford #SolarFarm in Chesapeake, one of the sites where the sheep currently graze, the energy generated powers 17,500 homes."
