Have a joyful #DayOfDionysos here at Erotic Mythology! 🍇
The Campi Flegrei near Naples are a volcanic area that is known for bradyseism, a gradual descent or uplift of the earth's surface due to magma movement. Buildings of the Roman era, complete with intact art, are now submerged in the sea. A fitting conclusion to MerMay 🧜‍♀️

Symbolically Regressing Fish Biomass Spectral Data: A Linear Genetic Programming Method with Tunable Primitives
Machine learning techniques play an important role in analyzing spectral data. The spectral data of fish biomass is useful in fish production, as it carries many important chemistry properties of fish meat. However, it is challenging for existing machine learning techniques to comprehensively discover hidden patterns from fish biomass spectral data since the spectral data often have a lot of noises while the training data are quite limited. To better analyze fish biomass spectral data, this pap…

Tuna fishing devices drift through a third of oceans, harming corals, coasts: Study
A recent study reveals that drifting fish aggregating devices (dFADs), widely used in tuna fishing, have spread to more than a third of the world’s oceans.  These devices harm ocean life and coastal communities, but weak rules and lack of accountability make it hard to manage them properly, some conservationists say. The study, published in […]

Have a beautiful Day of Aphrodite aka Venus' Day aka Frigg's Day aka Friday 🌹
Somewhere in the world it's still Friday!
"Out of the sea was rising lovely-crowned Kypris, foam-blossoms still upon her hair; and round her hovered smiling witchingly Himeros (Desire)."
Quintus Smyrnaeus, Fall of Troy 5.72
🏛 Attic red-figure pelike, ca 370 - 360 BCE, Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki

Aphrodite is born from a cockle shell--symbolising the castrated members of Uranus--at sea. Eros or Himeros flutters by her side. To her left stands Hermes holding a herald's wand (kerykeion) with his arm resting on a plinth. To her right Poseidon is seated with a trident and fish.

On the rejection of Argentina and Poland (among others) proposals for a moon treaty by the USA and the USSR.
#SpacePolicy

A black-and-white cartoon depicts a group of sea creatures underwater, including a shark at a podium labeled "Land Treaty Rally," a starfish, a fish, and an amphibian. The shark, with an angry expression, imagines an amphibian walking on land with palm trees in the background. Bubbles surround the scene, indicating an underwater setting. Below the cartoon, text reads: "Permitting the developing world to dictate the pace and quality of space exploration, the L-5 analogized, made 'about as much s…

Generative Social Choice: The Next Generation
A key task in certain democratic processes is to produce a concise slate of statements that proportionally represents the full spectrum of user opinions. This task is similar to committee elections, but unlike traditional settings, the candidate set comprises all possible statements of varying lengths, and so it can only be accessed through specific queries. Combining social choice and large language models, prior work has approached this challenge through a framework of generative social choic…

Weekend #Plankton Factoid 🦠🦐
Plankton is fundamental to the functioning of aquatic #ecosystems. An example was seen in the 2013 deaths of #Florida bottlenose dolphins. Dense harmful phytoplankton

Scientists link a phytoplankton bloom to starving dolphins in Florida
A phytoplankton bloom damaged habitats, deprived bottlenose dolphins of nutritious prey, and led to a sharp rise in strandings and deaths.

Still have a shitload of red curry paste left, so: tod man pla
I wish my allergies didn’t leave me with only 20% of my taste sense working though
#food

Fish balls made with red curry paste, green beans and kaffir lime leaves; this is supposed to be fried but I used the air fryer instead. Not bad. Side dish of cucumber & hot pepper pickle. And rice.
