Hard to be so concerned about AI when it currently can't tell the difference between Washington, D.C. and Washington state🧅
Jessica Sidman@jsidman
Amazon is flooded with AI-generated DC travel guides (written by fake authors) full of garbage information like this: washingtonian.com/2023/11/07/ai-…

I remember my high school’s teacher strike fondly. It lasted 21 days, and because nobody was telling us anything or talking to us, we spent that time putting together an unauthorized issue of the school paper that we handed out when kids came back.

I walked past a float while hauling out my crabbing gear a few months ago, a woman walking five steps behind me found it. I've thought about it every day since.

This fire appears to be burning right at Cottonwood Canyon, just across the river from the state park campground. It's not super clear, but it sounds like fire is staying up on the hills and skirting the southern end of the park.
Central OR Fire Info@CentralORFire

@RogueDew Of the cities included here, Dayton’s numbers seemed to be the closest to Portland’s.
English
@HaleJamesB I don’t get the comparison to Dayton - maybe it feels like an “average city” but Dayton was hit hard by the opioid crisis & had extremely high overdose rates just a few years ago. Dayton has done amazing life saving work to reduce the deaths, but it’s an odd reference point.
English
Overdose rates in Portland are surprisingly low compared to other cites. Per capita numbers here are more comparable to Dayton than to San Francisco.
San Francisco Chronicle@sfchronicle
The Chronicle launched a tracker allowing users to monitor drug overdose trends in their county and state. Here's what it tells us about San Francisco. trib.al/B4V4OW6

Get a sneak peek at the #MitchellPointTunnel! Opening in 2024 as part of the #HistoricHighway State Trail, this behind-the-scenes moment with Region 1 ACT members and local elected officials in #HoodRiver is just a taste of what's to come. Stay tuned for more exciting updates!

Don't want to assume any intention here, but this does play into the misguided "parks are only getting more crowded!" narrative.
English
Eh, this is a weird way to frame the data. Yellowstone says it's not comparing visitor counts to '20 and '21 because of COVID, essentially ignoring the record crowds in July 2021. The news release also says '22 doesn't count (floods), but here they note the increase.
Yellowstone National Park@YellowstoneNPS
(News Release) Yellowstone National Park hosted 969,692 recreation visits in July 2023. This is a 63% increase from July 2022 (596,562 recreational visits) and a 4% increase from July 2019* (936,062 recreation visits). Learn more: nps.gov/yell/learn/new…
