I am sure someone has already explained this elsewhere on HN, but how is it possible for a wind-powered craft to travel faster than the wind?

A bike. (If you really want to know - this: https://www.merida-bikes.com/en-au/bike/3127/speeder-100).

7am early morning ride before work, then ~ 2pm in the afternoon. Both around 1 hour, often longer.

My whole mood lifts the closer I get to ride time, and for a whole hour or so afterwards I am buzzing and I seem to write my best code. I never get stressed any more. I am fitter than ever with no sore knees or bad back or any other stuff I used to suffer when I was running. I sleep really well.

I am 54 and I live next to a dedicated bike path that goes for ~4 hours in two directions. I work almost exclusively from home in Brisbane, Australia.

I am using both Dolphin Smalltalk and Free Pascal/Lazarus. Both produce very good looking forms in Windows at least, which is my target platform. Both are easy and quick to develop in, particularly Dolphin. Both have powerful events systems, sane object systems, both very amenable to MVC. Both backed backed by SQLite3.

Selling point for users is that user data is retained locally and not sent to a remote server, execution speed, and familiar workflows.

I am up in Brisbane. I get them from my brother who has a few trees on his property in Maleny. I used to get them from the staff at Roma Street Parkland.

I leave the cone in a bowl until the individual seeds just start separating. Then I pull them off and put them on a tray and in the oven (~150 degrees) for 10 - 15 mins.

I regularly eat bunya nuts from the Australian bunya or false monkey puzzle tree (Araucaria bidwillii). It is said to have appeared in the Jurassic (~200 - 145 mya). They are very tasty.
