XKCD is amazing.
Randall Monroe has provided me with weekly nibbles of entertainment for nearly 2 decades. But this was inspired by his style, not created by him.
I realize that now. Well done!
I also did not create this.
Do you remember what the original was?
I think it’s https://xkcd.com/1425/
Funny, now it’s easy to check for birds.
If by “easy” you mean someone else already spent 5 years and a nice chunk of cash training a model for it, which you get to use. And if you accept that it will not be accurate across all possible species and environments, only very specific subsets.
You’re right, but you could say the same about the National Park GIS lookup.
This is original work. The source is in the post.
For a generous definition of “original”.
Edit: very generous, since it’s just new text on the second panel in https://xkcd.com/1269/
Self hosted
Cloud provided media storage
You want to talk about it?
Don’t threaten me with a good time
It could be their own cloud. I refer to my VPSes as “the cloud” even though that’s still self-hosting. My “cloud storage” would just be a 10TB storage VPS I’ve got.
I don’t like the use of the word cloud, makes it sound like some mystical virtual environment in the sky that anyone can use and it just works.
It’s someone else’s computer, nothing more
