I'm really into sustainable agriculture, small scale farming, vermiculture, and finding ways to automate those things. It's also pretty fun to automate small things in everyday life.

Nouser76··on Fracking boom tied to methane spike in Earth’s atmosphere
Really interesting idea! I'm not very knowledgeable around greenhouse gases, and even less around the various industrial processes that release them. Would cameras like this be able to give us the amount of CO2 released in say, metric tons? Or would it be too hard to actually get precise measurements and this is better for comparing orders of magnitude?

Finite state automata, for example, isn't something I'd bother to learn about but has proven helpful a handful of times.
