@n_dimension@infosec.exchange @katelynburns.com well, it's not an individual choice. We collectively could have made choices that would make it feasible for you to live close enough you didn't need a car. It's a societal choice.

@Lansiar@animal.business highly recommend getting the iNaturalist app. It will make recommended IDs, and put it in a citizen-science database. Other real humans will confirm your ID or suggest alternatives. Once everyone agrees it will become a sighting useful to researchers!

@mcnado@mstdn.social shouldn't they have plenty of evidence to know which of the guns at the scene fired the shot? I realize they might not be forthcoming about that, but surely at trial something that obvious will come out?

@MostlyBlindGamer Use base-5: start with index, when you get to 5 put your thumb up and your other fingers down. Now thumb+index is 6, etc. You can count to 9 on one hand. If you use your other hand as 10s, you can count up to 99.

@paco@infosec.exchange @fabrice@infosec.exchange There's an old unix AI that would probably significantly improve that code.

@sarahtaber Couldn't find my previous work, so I had to do it again. :) This time, alfalfa came out as the biggest offender; rice was about 60% of SoCal residential use. Here's the calcs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yEQfXMPXQPNWzwJb_dgKeUz3EBFCReurkuNVjyeFpHw/edit#gid=0

Replying to @sarahtaber@mastodon.online

@sarahtaber I've done this math at least twice, and it continues to astound me. I'm hoping an expert (you) can do it to tell me if I'm wrong. We use as much water growing rice in California as we do for all the human population south of somewhere around the San Fernando Valley. That's all of LA, Orange, San Diego, Riverside, and Ventura Counties. I did it by finding the number of acres of rice, multiplying by acre-feet of water usage, then comparing that to the SoCal population times the average water use per capita. Can that really be true?
