  • Three years in and our ‘self-sufficiency’ is limited to about 3 weeks of food per year if we relied on our own garden/forest 100% of the time for those 3 weeks. We don’t do that, but instead supplement with the garden and forest and learn more each year about what does well in our little spot.

    I don’t say this to dissuade - but to make sure you set proper expectations. Self-sufficiency, even just for food, is a decade-long endeavor where you almost certainly will have to work some kind of job or have some income in the meantime.

    Yes, I too am shocked by how easy it is for the state media and upper echelons of a long-standing democracy to start calling the leaders of other countries governors of their states and threatening annexation.

    This however, was just a funny little shit post…

    None of those albums would show up on my list of best albums.

    They would all show up near the top of the list of shittiest albums though.

    All I’m trying to say here is you can’t say any album is objectively good or bad because music taste is subjective.

    And to address the argument on precision versus descending. I disagree. An instrument counting seconds is more precise than a machine counting minutes, hours, days, weeks, months etc… And that holds true through the chain. The precision is in the unit.

    We can debate this all day. And I can’t honestly say that I would take either side in a purely semantics argument.

    But the wording comes directly from RFC3339 which is, to me, the definitive source for useful date representation.

    https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3339.txt

    5.1. Ordering

    If date and time components are ordered from least precise to most precise, then a useful property is achieved. Assuming that the time zones of the dates and times are the same (e.g., all in UTC), expressed using the same string (e.g., all “Z” or all “+00:00”), and all times have the same number of fractional second digits, then the date and time strings may be sorted as strings (e.g., using the strcmp() function in C) and a time-ordered sequence will result.
