(Verily, the mind doth boggle . . . because you know the only reason that warning label is there must be because somebody did that!)
More next week.

At the local home centers, small tarps are cheap, but large tarps (30 feet or above in either dimension) get pretty pricey, up into the hundreds. If you need something large but don’t want to pay a lot, there are at least two companies selling repurposed heavy-duty tarps at affordable prices.
"Each of our vinyls was once posted high in the sky alongside a freeway," writes Billboard Vinyls. "Once their lives as advertising billboards are over, billboard tarpaulin can be re-purposed for a wide range of applications. These high quality vinyls are created to be waterproof, weather resistant, and are UV protected."
"Vinyl billboard tarps are perfect for a variety of applications inlcuding hay tarps, roof covers, boat and vehicle covers, construction, weed barriers, rv skirting, dividers, slip’n’slides, agriculture, wood pile covers, vapor barriers, drop cloths, ground covers, and anything else that needs waterproofing," writes competitor Billboard Tarps. "The 3-ply design is durable, tough and long-lasting with vinyl coating and UV protection on both sides. They are specifically designed to withstand harsh outdoor weather conditions."
You don’t have a choice of what the printed ad is, of course, and the reverse sides are either black or white. Also, the sizes don’t quite correspond with what the big-boxes sell; because these were billboards, they all have letterbox aspect ratios. But you can get a lot of durable material for little money. A 14′ x 48′ reused vinyl tarp at either site goes for $75, for instance.
I’ve looked through both sites, and at press time Billboard Vinyls had a much wider range of sizes in stock.

Thanks to its layered structure, plywood is a strong and versatile material that costs less than hardwood boards. Carpenters often work to hide exposed plywood edges, but Michael Alm came up with a better solution – he created his own custom plywood with beautiful and intricate edge patterns which you’d never want to hide.

Aimeos, the open-source Laravel e-commerce app, just released v2021.07, which includes a new default theme, a new settings panel, and more.
Here is a screenshot of the product list page of the new theme and it also fully supports right to left languages like Arabic as the previous theme did. Colors can be customized easily by using the defined CSS variables and you can adapt the theme totally to your needs.
There’s a new panel in the admin backend available for adding configuration options per site including images, shop and theme related settings with is available in “Configuration > Settings”. It’s especially useful in multi-site environments because it allows site admins (shop owners) to configure basic settings themselves and also to choose one of the available themes.
If you use Laravel and the Aimeos installation is configured as multi-site setup with custom domains, shop owners can also set their custom domain name in that panel.
In the new release, the detail view of the Aimeos order panel has been extended and contains warehouse management related fields now.
In addition to the already available status and “Delivery in” fields, it’s possible to handle partial deliveries in Aimeos now if e.g. only one product is available for some reasons but two has been ordered. By tracking which and how many products you’ve already sent to the customer, you get lean warehouse management functionality in case you don’t have a specialized system for that kind of task.
To see everything in this release check out the official release announcement and if you are interested in trying it out you can find setup instructions on their Laravel landing page

Laravel Loggable is a package for eloquent models, which will monitor the changes on the models and log.
It supports two drivers: File and Database.
composer require alkhachatryan/laravel-loggable
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=loggable
php artisan migrate
Open the configuration file at /config/loggable.php
Set the driver whhich will log the model changes (can be both).
However, it’s recommended to use the database driver so you can fetch the logs in the future.
That’s it!
class Post extends Model { /** Include the loggable trait */ use Loggable; /** Specified actions for this model */ public $loggable_actions = ['edit', 'create', 'delete']; /** Specified fields for this model */ public $loggable_fields = ['title', 'body']; protected $fillable = ['title', 'body']; }
Loggable::model('App\Post');
LoggableModel::whereModelName('App\Post')->orderBy('id', 'DESC')->paginate(10);
You can use the event Alkhachatryan\LaravelLoggable\Events\Logged in pair with your listeners.
Please see CHANGELOG for more information what has changed recently.

Setting up dominoes can be time-consuming and requires a steady hand. We’ve seen robots that can stand one domino at a time. Mark Rober and his engineering pals presents DOM – a custom-built robot that can set up 300 dominoes at a time. The robot arm and Hot Wheels track loading system is equally awesome.

That’s the title of a very interesting video interview that Mike Rowe, of "Dirty Jobs" fame, gave to Trinity Broadcasting Network last month. I highly recommend that you take the time to watch it. It’s only nine minutes long, but encapsulates the dilemma of our current workforce, and young people planning to enter that workforce.
Sobering thoughts, particularly if you have children planning what they want to do with their lives.
