    I have a Dynatrap XL set up in the back corner of my back yard. It’s electric, so you plug it in and run it all season 24/7. Collects them in a cage where they eventually die. You need to empty the trap a few times per season which is gross and I hate doing it, but the trap is super effective. Allowed us to enjoy our back yard the whole season. Even during twilight when the bugs are normally at their worst.





  • By breaking production, I’m referring to a situation where someone, most likely in a technical job, broke a system that was intended to be responsible for the operation for some kind of service. Most of the responses here, which have been great to read, are about messing up things like software, databases, servers and other hardware.

    Stuff happens and we all make mistakes. It’s what you take away from the experience that matters.




  • My weight loss started in a thread exactly like this. I read about someone using My Fitness Pal to track their food intake and consuming less than they were burning. I tried the same thing and within days I was losing weight and feeling better.

    I lost 80 pounds over the following year, took up running using the Couch 2 5K program and have been maintaining that since 2018.

    Finished my first triathlon last summer.
