It's also a book about Shakespearean plays and politics so who's to say if it's really relevant. Was my favorite pandemic read. Shout out to the CBC for having the author on as part of their ongoing Stratford festival series

@davidmoscrop.com sad about the pod being done (got through 70 percent of the recent episode so apologies if I missed a big reveal about what's next!). Have you read Tyrant by Stephen Greenbalt? The conversation today had me thinking about the takeaways from that book re: avoiding middle ground

Had a great conversation today about AI in ecology and generally. It will be on @fisheriespod.bsky.social in a few weeks. Probably one too many Dune references but I won't apologize for that!

Anyone have experience with organizing trail camera into a database? Looking at a project where we'll have 5+ cameras taking hundreds of pictures a day. Data will be beamed to a single location OR data will be manually downloaded and then put into the database.
