I also did a benchmark between cloud providers recently and compared performance for price

That isn't the same as parent through, you are comparing VMs instead of dedicated servers

Hi there fellow techie!


Yep, you gotta get to release! The first you push all the way through to release is the hardest (at least so I've heard haha)


Keep going and you'll get there! Your game looks great!


In my case there wasn't. I had a fraudulent account opened in my name at Bank of America and it took over 5 hours of talking to different people, going into a local branch, and waiting on hold to get to someone that could actually do something about it.


At Indigo we're working on incentivizing farmers to adopt regenerative practices and get paid for sequestering carbon.

There's a number of open positions, most with the option to be remote!

Your carbon site explains the "how it works" as essentially a reactive process, i.e. a farmer adopts regen practices and then gets paid for the results -- what about any proactive processes to help incentivize and facilitate farmers' transitions to regen ag?

I ask because I've been researching regen ag for smallholder farms -- a few programs exist, primarily through microfinance, but I've yet to see any quality + accessible programs to accomplish this proactive approach tightly knit with carbon credit markets.

An obvious difficulty with this approach is verifying the transition actually occurs and more carbon is sequestered, but it does seem to be an essential component if we want to move more farms to regenerative ag. Curious if you have any further thoughts on this space, I'd love to speak more about this.

FWIW, I've been following Indigo and the regenerative ag space for a while and IA is doing some great work, so I don't mean to undermine the impact these programs already have.


Indigo provides resources here: https://www.indigoag.com/carbon-college, including Carbon College - a set of short courses on carbon sequestration and regenerative practices tied w/ economics. Please check it out!


Sounds like an interesting approach. I'm glad there are people working of these issues. When I read this article I was thinking something like this is needed to incentivize the farmers.


Indigo and every other ag player. Space saturated quickly. Now people need to find ways to fund the 10-40 per acre benefits long-term...


Would you mind elaborating what you meant with that comment? What are the "10-40 per acre benefits"?


Whoops. Meant to be 10-40 $$, USD per acre. That range seems to be the most common direct payment for farmers to adapt regenerative or sustainable practices on their farm. It depends where in the country and what method is used to determine payment (usually). It’s a very, very new method but it basically means paying farmers—- that money has to come from somewhere as usually farmers pay companies


Ah, got it - thank you for the explanation. I’m not familiar with this space, so I had no idea that practice existed!


That first photograph is incredible
