Great to see @amyduclaux.bsky.social new paper on snake coloration published doi.org/10.1111/1365... and getting some media coverage. Amy used images for 458 species from @inaturalist.bsky.social to show that venomous species stand out more from their background more than non-venomous species. 🌐

Venomous snakes much likelier to have bright colours than harmless counterparts, Galway researchers find

The research saw the report's authors analyse more than 450 snake species using thousands of photographs

Managed to get a first list of Irish verified users from the yoke formerly known as Twitter and map them to Bluesky accounts (if they exist) - it's not quite Sky Follower Bridge! Using @jonkeegan.com's list from github, mlr to strip out some unwanted \n's, head, grep, sort, jq, and more to get here!

Great article by Oana Olteanu “Against Usefulness” that centers @folkcomputer.bsky.social while describing “the stage before useful, who works on it, and who pays for it, so that the next generation of useful companies has something to stand on”

@jonkeegan.com Thanks for your Tw Verified List - we found that Miller is handy for dealing with the linefeeds in some of the text fields: mlr --csv put ' for (k in $*) { if (is_string($[k])) { $[k] = gsub($[k], "\n", " "); } } ' verified_users_2022-11-02.csv > verified_noextralfs.csv 💙
