Hey Nerds, I found an infographic that gives a timeline of dinosaurs. https://www.dinopit.com/dinopits-dinosaur-infographic-timeline/

What's your favorite dino and why? And do you have a scientific or cool resource about it? Dinosaurs are a diverse group of reptiles that dominated Earth’s ecosystems during the Mesozoic Era (about 252–66 million years ago). They evolved into two major groups: Saurischia (like T. rex and Velociraptor) and Ornithischia (like Triceratops). Dinosaurs are famous for their size, diversity, and extinction at the end of the Cretaceous period, likely caused by a massive asteroid impact. Birds are the modern descendants of theropod dinosaurs. My favorite is the Parvicursor, the tiniest dinosaur. 39 cm long, 32 grams, the size of a ginny pig

Hi everyone, For those of you working on environmental projects or applications. I've recently developed an autonomous monitoring system that converts live environmental footage into comprehensive species observation records, generating 72 standardized variables per observation through coordinated AI analysis. Key Capabilities: - Automated species identification with behavioral and seasonal analysis - Environmental threat detection and habitat quality assessment - Real-time integration of climate, conservation, and geographic databases - FAIR-compliant scientific metadata generation - Consistent multi-species processing through spatiotemporal optimization - Scalable and customizable features for straightforward integration Research Applications: The system serves diverse monitoring needs: terrestrial ecological sites tracking species phenology and climate responses, marine research facilities monitoring biodiversity and ecosystem health, conservation programs requiring rapid habitat assessments, and citizen science projects where volunteers can contribute to standardized scientific databases. Output integrates directly with institutional data management systems and research workflows. Open to collaborating with research institutions interested in deploying autonomous monitoring solutions.

What is your favorite soil microbe and why? I love Pseudomonas aeruginosa, bc of its communication abilities(Quorum Sensing), pyocynin production, and its infective ability as an opportunistic pathogen. https://www.biomerieux-industry.com/en-us/node/771
