What we do/don’t know re: sharks ecological roles. Much predation/fear by big coastal sharks, by western unis, little else. Must protect big individuals & species’ outsized roles. MPAs crucial; engage communities to improve outcomes & shark perceptions tinyurl.com/52e295m3

@lostsharksguy Well done mate, truly deserved

What an amazing night! I'm just going to leave this here for now, but will be posting more photos later...

This thread 🔥👇🏽

@helloakashm @petergyang try fits-app.com

@petergyang Yeah - for personal, I have a few ideas and POCs but never productionized. I would like to make a directory of all my clothes and tag them properly so that I can ask an agent how I should pair my outfit from what’s available in the wardrobe.

I feel like outside of coding, real world usage of AI agents is nascent at best. Someone prove me wrong - what's an AI workflow or agent you've set up that's super useful? Something that runs automatically and gives you value without you having to go back and forth with it?

@EastlondonDev @CasualDjoker @petergyang @mattpocockuk I love the sound of this but don't you find one of the biggest drags of ebay selling is taking photos, sizing & weighing the box once the item is padded & inside, then printing & posting it on the backend? None (I think?) of which is AI-able...

@CasualDjoker @petergyang I have a bunch of tweets. I'm working on my video making but it's not that easy making good video content (at least for a Boomer Uncle like me). I've spoken with @mattpocockuk about my methods though and he has fantastic content, if you want to do this check out his stuff

@PortolaFestival @GoldenvoiceBay Please can someone send me a presale link? I went in 2022 & 2023 not 2024, got the flyer, but no email/sms for presale. Thanks.

@UrbanEdgeSharks @AlisonTowner1 Great work team!

Tagging success! After months of quiet shark activity, 8 white sharks have been satellite-tagged. With sightings declining along South Africa’s south-west coast, new tracking data will help uncover where these iconic predators are going & why. @AlisonTowner1 #collaborationiskey

@NovaLauncher Hi Kevin, would a support email on 19th September have been seen? Trying to fix a creaking home screen issue, would love a response, cheers!

Hey Everyone, Kevin here. I've posted an update about the state of Nova Launcher at novalauncher.com/nova-aug-2024 > I've always been the lead and primary contributor to Nova Launcher and that hasn't changed. I will continue to control the direction and development of Nova Launcher.

@DrSammyShark @FishySounds @A_DiGiacomo_ @coastal_chloe @Thunnus Great stuff team! Much needed work as well, looking forward to getting stuck in.

🚨NEW PAPER🚨 We reviewed the effect of the lunar cycle on tuna, billfish, sharks and rays and propose best practices for future studies. DM me if you need a copy of the paper. tinyurl.com/5n737vbf

@NickDulvy @SharkColin This is super cool Colin!

#GlobalSharkTrends Here is another @SharkColin GIF of Shark & Ray Red List Index by habitat 🧵8/20

New #GlobalSharkTrends study published in @ScienceMagazine reveals that #overfishing has more than halved shark & ray populations over the past 50-years causing widespread erosion of ecological function and exceptionally high extinction risk 👉🏽Full article bit.ly/GlobalSharkTre… Please SHARE & LIKE 🧵1/20

@britishairways Will there be gate agents/staff at check in desk 1413 MXPt1?

Faster than disaster! Interesting work from Spain+Stanford: a nuclear reactor disaster near Barcelona shouldn't radioactively contaminate Atlantic bluefin tuna above safe levels because they move through the region too quickly t.ly/FRmix

@thomashawk @SamuelEllis Equally why gaslight people into thinking they're worse than they are? So some high end retail is turning over, doesn't confirm SF is an unliveable hellscape. FLWright building store has been invite only for some time AFAIK

sure thing buddy. lol. Why gaslight people trying to make things sound better than they are? If we can't acknowledge the problem we can't fix the problem. You think a 49er being shot for his rolex a few blocks away will get more stores to open here or not? x.com/domestic415/st…. .

1/ The other day someone accused me of exaggerating about how many of the stores on San Francisco’s famed two block stretch of Maiden Lane were closed down. Back in the day this was THE spot for high end retail in San Francisco. More recently it’s a few blocks away from where 49er Ricky Pearsall was shot last week. X only lets you post 4 images per post so I’ll have to do a thread instead.

@DrSharkyJenny @IrishEnvNet Happy days, nice work JB!

@NickDulvy @src_rsc @SFU Brilliant stuff, well done mate

It is truly an honour to be named a Fellow @src_rsc Thank you to all my students, colleagues, and mentors who made this such an exciting, creative, & productive journey. Congratulations to my fellow inductees. Royal Society of Canada bestows three @SFU scholars with country’s highest academic honour sfu.ca/sfunews/storie…

@Caltrain pending schedule frequency sounds great. But are we serious? All this time waiting and no power outlets? Any chance of a retrofit? Feels like a headslap oversight that resounds for 39 years...

@DrSammyShark @HopkinsMarine @Thunnus @stanforddoerr @GlobalFishWatch @elhazen Nice work bud!

@ClaireEvamoore @MarineInst Big red! Best jacket ever ❤️

@kimfriedmans @UrbanEdgeSharks This is good stuff, thanks @kimfriedmans . @Matias_Braccini and I are having a spirited discussion about this and will be developing our thoughts over the coming weeks. Hopefully you're amenable to me emailing you for more chat soon :)

@UrbanEdgeSharks This is an interesting paper looking at impacts & recovery of ecosystem function — plant focussed, but insightful on the complexities of the questions at hand besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/13… @SimonDedman

New #science reviews past & current knowledge on the ecological roles of sharks & explores their potential future roles in ecosystems within the context of the #blueeconomy. Ecological roles & importance of sharks in the Anthropocene Ocean | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… (1/10)

@kimfriedmans I love this question. Sorry I've not replied on email yet, been a crazy week. I'm keen to discuss this with the whole group.

Management aiming to maintain ecological function of #shark would require 'how much' above the point where the stock was self sustaining (#MSY — i.e. maximum sustainable yield? And what principles would you use to calculate the threshold? science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
