@ltronneberg @ManuelaZucknick @RESCUER2020 @pauldwkirk I am curious, you constrained your model to output viability between 0 and 100% viability, but because of experimental noise your observations sometimes showed >100% viability. How did you account for that? Simple clipping of the observations?

With all the environmental catastrophes we face, it's so important to remember that we have the power to fix things, to restore the balance we destroyed. The re-introduction of wolves to Yellowstone is a great example. Also: humpback whales.
Dr. Clayton Forrester@DrClaytonForre1

In 1995, 14 wolves were released into the wild in Yellowstone National Park. Scientists at the time did not suspect that this would radically change the entire ecosystem of the park. 1/n

@RuxandraTeslo Sure, there are shared/cultural/ancestral experiences. My "lived experience" of 9/11 is where I was on that day, but my cultural experience, which is actually how I perceive 9/11, is much broader. Historical trauma or pride can also be experienced personally, though not lived.

Can you have experience that is not lived?

Anyone recommend a provider for a virtual local phone number (EU countries) for personal use or something that isn’t too pricey if they only offer for biz? I saw Dialpad does that. Maybe zoom?

I swear there is no more obnoxious Twitter thread habit than the final tweet telling me to like the first tweet... I mean, come on, we all know how Twitter works 🙄

Anyone know why recent Covid variants haven't been named? Why are we on variants-of-variants-of-Omicron instead of just the Psi variant? BA.5 and BA.2.75 must be different enough to warrant categorization as new strains.

So, the three of us started building the company. Refining the strategy, measuring the market, perfecting the pitch (or, really, making it barely passable). Now, many VC pitches later, we're in @ycombinator 's S22 batch. What a way to start!
