going med free for 2-3 mos from a bunch of meds over last 3 yrs - none of them really worked, some made things worse - with psoriasis on your feet the cure can be worse than the disease #baselines

New paper led by Jan Steger shows how important it is to recognize that today's #oceans (and most continental ecosystems, I add) have profoundly shifted from historical #baselines: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gcb.17272

@dan613 @StillIRise1963 The US would need the power sharing inherent in a parliamentary system. That's not going to happen anytime soon and it's too bad. Imagine what an NDP-like party could do in the US. (note: First Nations still getting stiffed in BC by NDP). See CDCP just passed. It should be truly universal and not means tested, but still a pretty good start. #Baselines

On a positive note, the Dems rediscovering a strengthening base in labor is a good move. More of that please.

PSA: Liberals that I absolutely love. My actual, biological fam is also you. Couple things:
- Please, what your hear on MSM (yes, talking about MSNBC, CNN...) may not be entirely accurate in non-white terms.
- I know you are all super smart, I don't think anybody said otherwise? At the very same time your leftish fam/friends might just be trying to help avoid moral hazards that will literally expand fascism? 1/2 #Liberalism #Fascism #MSM #Baselines

I’ve been away from this (my favorite) platform lately as my family and I have been on vacation.

Just a quick return to say that what we see happening right now…

- #forest #fires across most of #Canada 🇨🇦

-a fire-caused state-of-emergency in my home province of #BC 🔥

-a massive #storm about to hit #California ⛈️

-a #heat #dome developing over the #USA 🇺🇸

…is nowhere close to normal.

Don’t let our #baselines #shift.

#Photographs are becoming more important for documenting #biodiversity #baselines and even potentially for #conservation planning. However there are #gaps & #biases in the developing #photographic #record.

E.g., from #Australia: “ #Herbs and #graminoids have disproportionately more unphotographed species relative to their total #diversity; the latter constitute 16.1% of unphotographed #species despite making up just 8.2% of all species.”

Text from figure 2 description: “Geographic summary of Australia's native vascular plant photographic record. (a) Relative positions of each external territory to mainland Australia; (b) mainland Australia and Tasmania; (c) sub-Antarctic islands; (d) tropical islands; (e) subtropical islands. For each state and territory, the first number is the percentage of species represented by at least one field photograph in at least one of 33 online resources, and the number in parentheses is the total number of recorded species. Note the external territories are not depicted to scale in (c–e).”

Exciting news! I am thrilled to announce that my talk "How to baseline in NLP and where to go from there" has been accepted for @pyconde 2023.

I am happy to have the opportunity to share my insights and experience with the PyCon Berlin community, and I can't wait to connect with other NLP enthusiasts and professionals.

Looking forward to seeing you all there! #PyConBerlin2023 #NLP #Baselines #DataScience #MachineLearning #WeakLearning #TransferLearning
