Got caught in the rain today, and waited out the shower under a rhododendron. Not a bad way to spend fifteen minutes. Entertained myself watching a crow across the street, looking picturesque in a blooming dogwood.
It was a spectacularly beautiful day here today and we got all the Cucurbits planted out and covered with my white plastic totes (cloches). We've got:
Zucchini (Dunja)
Squash (Sunburst)
Butternut Squash (Butter Baby)
Cucumber (Marketmore)
Our planting out is almost done now with only 2 more plantings of corn and the Okra still to go in.😀 #gardening #allotment #NewEngland #zone6b #spring @gardening
I have just learned that "#Java Bean" has two completely different and incompatible definitions.
One is a dumb, badly designed data object with getters and setters.
The other is... a service object managed by the Spring framework IoC container.
Holy hell. This is 10x worse than #Laravel "facades."
Am I wrong here? This is what I'm finding from online tutorials. Is there more nuance that is not coming through, because for now I just hate #Spring even more.
Thankfully, towards the end, the rain let up and allowed for a beautiful evening. We drove to a nearby walk alongside the Northern Reaches of Lancaster Canal.
Dear friends, #ClimateDiary
The best carbon capture and storage system are healthy #ecosystems. I don't know if the photo here of this Youhiogheny River section pictures is, in fact, a healthy ecosystem, but it is a lovely view and there is lots of carbon loveliness in those trees and in the forest floor. I took it for my friend who wanted a photo to look at while he pees. It's titled:
Pix to piss to
After lunch yesterday, we went to the #HistoryOfScienceMuseum in #Oxford. It’s not very big but contains some really fascinating exhibits. It is right next to the #SheldonianTheatre and well worth a visit.
Yesterday, we went on a day trip to #Oxford by #train. No other means of powered transport was used as we #cycled to and from our local #RailwayStation.
Here is the #countryside zooming past the train window.
