@KiaNeu6 Hi Anna - The original deal I had with Elsevier was they would make it free to read - they did 1 chapter at a time - now the book is now a bit dated - but ALL of my other work is pure open source - see Examples section appropedia.org/Open-source_Lab

Yeah, nothing says "open source" better than “pay to read it.”

modern research equipment is absurdly expensive. • a lab power supply • a microscope • a 3d printer • a spectrometer each can cost thousands of dollars. but most of these machines are just combinations of: • motors • sensors • microcontrollers • mechanical frames • software open-source lab by joshua m. pearce shows how researchers are rebuilding scientific tools using open hardware. > 3d printers instead of $50k lab machines > arduino-based instruments > open designs anyone can replicate result: • research costs drop by orders of magnitude • labs become accessible to anyone • innovation moves faster the future lab will not be purchased. it will be built.

In conversation with @CBCLondon, #WesternU PhD candidate Maryam Mottaghi shares the importance of recycling parts from solar panels. Although solar panels have a 20-year lifespan, Mottaghi explains there is still value within the components of retired cells.

@tonyoramos1 @SEIA @isolaralliance @Offgrid_Style You could do that easily -- it would depend where you are -- but you should be careful to note that investment in solar would be all tax free - but the funds you need to strip of the tax when you compare to the returns.

@ProfPearce @SEIA @isolaralliance @Offgrid_Style Dr. Pearce, did you compare the cost of solar to the opportunity cost of not investing in diversified index funds in your study? It feels like the initial investment is quite high and financial decisions must incorporate opportunity costs to be rational
