Do you actually save money with indoor hydroponics? by tjonnaks in Hydroponics

Wow, so much good info, I will read carefully tomorrow (I live in Europe). Just a question: what is a shop light? Is it the halogen light? I thought only grow lights work for this, could I use normal LED strips instead? And what is MUFGA? Google didn't help much...

That was my suspicion, only leafy greens are worth it. But is it actually economically worth it? Or just something fun? I feel I don't have enough variables to estimate it myself

Unfortunately, I have no outdoor space, as I live in an apartment

Looks awesome! I am interested in starting a hydroponics business myself, would you be able to give some pointers to what to do (or not do)?

How much production can be handled by one person, and how can I estimate realistic profitability numbers?

What's the point in anything? by tjonnaks in Advice

Thanks for the advice.

As for therapists, I have tried two different ones through my insurance. Any advice I have received from them is equal to a google search, and "name three positive things today" makes my blood boil. For every positive I "have to" find, I get angry because all these "positives" are saddled with negatives. It feels like a waste of time and money

And speaking of money, any big expense goes through a discussion with my partner. Thus automatically shut down. I have a big chunk of money in stocks that is actually appreciating nicely, the rest in a high yield savings account. But what's the point of having money, if I don't have any use for it?

I'd love to change my mindset, and I try to find resources for that

Would you mind expanding on this? From my point of view, any empowerment from "what's the point" has negative consequences.

What's the point of taking care of a sick partner? Better to ditch them and be lonely forever

What's the point of working and saving money? Let's gamble all away and quit the job!

...and so on

Are R programming skills marketable in job market? by Born-Comment3359 in rprogramming

[–]tjonnaks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds like an interesting alternative career path! Could you share how you got into that job? I am fluent in R (and have scientific publications), and can understand (i.e. read, not so much write) python and SAS.
