These techniques are targeted at individual species, not all mosquitoes, and the species in question are invasive species. If it was targeting native mosquitoes your comment would make more sense, but in this case the ecological effects should be neutral to positive.
Modern EVs have hundreds of miles of range and can easily do road trips as long as there are chargers along the route. I haven’t done any cross county trips but I have driven from NorCal to SoCal and eastern to western CO without issue.
Sure why not? My wife studied there and loved it. Great opportunity to visit other European countries too with how their visas work.
Needs to include a facial recognition ban.
What’s the advantage over traditional delivery?
Yes you can.
The fediverse is not a safe space, excepting a few instances like blahaj.
People can and should make instances for different philosophies but my concern is that any instance that doesn’t enforce leftist purity is going to be defederated.
They’re not going to learn about it because most people who join the fediverse end up leaving and they don’t recruit anyone else.
The Overton window would be moved by people being exposed to far left ideas and finding them more reasonable than expected. But the community does a very poor job of doing that currently.
Well then you’re in the minority. I do think it’s a problem that you can’t post what on most other platforms would be viewed as mainstream viewpoints without being threatened by censorship. And I do not agree with these viewpoints but at the same time, if the average person cannot post here without walking on eggshells, the fediverse will never be mainstream.
And I want it to be mainstream because fuck the tech oligarchs.
If you see it again post a picture.
That’s not better though. You can worship god all you want and he’s not gonna do anything bad because he’s not real. The same can’t be said for Claude. This could have Consequences.
Thanks. I guess we’ll have to wait for more data to come out to see if the end is a blip or a real change.
With the growing demand of data centers it kinda feels like it will continue to increase.
I think there has been a significant algorithm change. When I click on the hot tab on old Reddit it appears a little more like it used to. Although it doesn’t explain everything.
What’s the last year in this data set?
Fair warning a lot of people here have a really extremely negative view of AI so I don’t think that will be better for you.
Broken clock…
I’m actually quite curious if mega-herbivores would help reduce fire risk on a warming planet. If can be done with mechanical thinning or controlled burns but I don’t see how we get the money and manpower to do this over the massive forested areas of western North America.
But if there was an animal that ate and/or destroyed smaller trees and brush while leaving larger ones, they could reduce fuel loads for free. We know elephants do this in Africa so perhaps mastodons and mammoths did the same thing in the ancient American ecosystem.
I think this is somewhat speculative but there’s only one way to find out…
Unfortunately I think despite the hype from some startups de-extinction is an incredibly hard problem that will not be solved any time soon.
Why not? Because they’re dangerous? Obviously there is some uncertainty with extinct animals but I don’t think they’d be any more dangerous than elephants which still exist today.
Are you talking about the hugging face stuff?
I’m not sure exactly what you mean by believing it.
I think the evidence seems good that it happened but I definitely don’t buy the spin these companies are putting out about what happened. Either they deliberately engineered this to happen as a publicity stunt or their engineers were extremely, perhaps criminally negligent in how they tested their models. I think a criminal investigation is appropriate but no agency overseeing this has the balls or interest in doing so, it seems.
