Population ecology (Ecology 🏞️)

Population ecology is a field of ecology that deals with the dynamics of species populations and how these populations interact with the environment, such as birth and death rates, and by immigration and emigration. The discipline is important in conservation biology, especially in the development of population viability analysis which makes it possibl...

@ChrisMayLA6 Maybe, fundamentally, human minds are just a minor step up from “statistical parrots”.

I am skeptical of people that try to diminish #AITechnology as being merely #AppliedStatistics . We humans are merely #appliedPhysicsWithSomeAppliedChemistry .

#ArtificialIntelligence is already quite advanced and it will continue to advance. I wouldn’t underestimate where the technology will be in 5 or 10 years.

I dragged my kids to help me out on a Costco run today.

My 13yo passed by this TV advertising it's "AI" on the box and says, "Oh, look, that TV has statistics!"

Good morning ! In today's #ConnectionList, I'd like to introduce you to:

@VirginiaEubanks, a #researcher and #writer of #technology and #SocialJustice. Her book "Automating Inequality" is a stunning treatise on #AlgorithmicHarms #AlgorithmicJustic and uses the concept of poorhouses to show how #algorithms can operate as "digital poorhouses". You should buy it, read it, and then encourage all your friends to read it.

@marnie is in #Aotearoa and is working with #water for healthy #land and #people #NZTwits #ecology 🇳🇿

@LauraLangdon is a #tech #writer and #DevRel at @suborbital. She likes #Python and #Go and #ResponsibleAI (me too Laura!) 🇺🇸 👋

@laurentlefort is a #KnowledgeGraph engineer, and former @w3c #Australia persson. He's based in #Canberra #CBR on #Ngunnawal and #Ngambri country 🇦🇺 👋

@OmidVEbrahimi is a #researcher and #PhD candidate working in #psychology and #AppliedStatistics, and works as a child #psychologist. Currently at COPE Lab in #Oslo, moving to #Oxford next year 👋

@MistressRemilia makes #doom and #quake maps, writes #music, programs in #Lisp and #Crystal. She uses Slackware #Linux 🐧 👋

@Paxxi is from 🇸🇪 (and I bet he loves #fika like @forslund!), and he got me on to #Mash, which is mobile bash / ssh. And wow it's changed my life! Thank you! 👋 tack så mycket!

That's all for today, don't forget to curate your own #ConnectionList ❤️
