Climate change, which causes shifts in #temperature and precipitation patterns, is partly to blame for the change in the growth of crops and the #availability of water for irrigation.

 These climate and #landscape changes, in turn, lead to reduced crop yields. Modern #technology can use satellite imaging to assess deforestation, and by differentiating between trees, crops,

forested areas and clear-cut areas, experts can #identify zones that need #protection and help enforce regulations to prevent further damage.

A second #contributing factor to #worldwide food production is crop performance

AI has also seen utility in its ability to improve crop #performance by using spectral and radar-based analysis from satellites, #combined with weather, planting and soil data, to make recommendations for maximizing crop yield.

#Machine learning compares data sets across different regions and aligns #recommendations based on regional differences.

Despite #having over 1 million followers on Twitter, Davis didn’t have any grand plan to build his #audience except just “consistently posting” over the years.

He tries to avoid just #posting “all hardcore value content,” as he thinks of himself as the “fun” guy with the #memes and “stupid opinions.

Davis admits it’s a #mystery which tweets land and which don’t — an “educational post might get 50 likes,” while a seemingly frivolous tweet about #Dogecoin going “to the moon” will get “1,000 likes.

The #platform says “things are back in order” after it identified and fixed an internal #systems issue that took its website offline for almost six hours.

Social media #platform Reddit is back online after it identified and #implemented a fix for a “major outage” that made browsing impossible for desktop and mobile users for almost six hours.

The #platform first noted it was offline at 7:18 pm UTC on March 14, according to #Reddit Status, and said it was working to identify the issue

About 30 minutes later, at 7:56 pm UTC, it said it had #identified an internal #systems issue and was working to determine a fix. It confirmed th fix around two hours later, stating:

“We’ve #identified a fix which may take some time to implement, in the #meantime ready your bananas (or eat them!).

In an update four hours after its initial #announcement, Reddit said it had #implemented our fix” and was “slowly allowing things to ramp back up” and later confirmed “things are back in order” after a nearly six-hour outage.
