Introduction of predators into a second overpopulation sim
2025.01.18 05:10 AStarryNightlight Introduction of predators into a second overpopulation sim
I made another simulation with settings similar to the overpopulation sim, but now with even smaller pellets and predators.
It turns out that balancing predator-prey simulations is hard because it's also just as easy for the predators to absolutely wipe their prey. Many times the prey population drops to just 1 and I have to continuously spawn in basic bibites to provide a buffer for that 1 guy to survive.
The predators immediately devolved the avoidance behavior because it caused them to crash into other bibites, which would instantly kill them. Also herding was disabled so their avoidance behavior was severely hindered anyway.
Surprisingly, the prey have not evolved speed...yet.
It's been 17 hours since the predators' introduction and the prey that had high metabolism speed and high jaw muscles have all disappeared, and the ones left all are really slow and only have a decent amount of jaw strength. They have evolved to turn away from other bibites and also accelerate when seeing bibites, which acts as a way to dodge predators. They also evolved to be pretty small so the chances the predators missed them is larger.
Before their introduction, there was a sizable population of high metabolism bibites, and they were the among the first to be wiped by the predators.
This could just be because of luck, but my current theory is that the obliteration of most of the prey population allowed the survivors to live with less competition, and can afford to evolve other things rather than metabolism speed and jaw strength. Also, the predators are made for speedy-ish prey, so they would actually have a bit more trouble catching prey that are too slow.
Another theory I have is that larger pellets would make the predators get stuck, so if they evolved to be very fast, there is a high chance they could shake the predators by kiting them around plants and getting the predators stuck on the plants. This can no longer happen with tiny plants.
However, the problem is that they are very easy prey, so they are highly susceptible to getting wiped. Especially when I designed the predators to store a huge amount of fat, so they linger around for a long time even if the prey are gone. So I do predict that the prey will evolve speed to try and outrun the predators. But since there are so many plants and they are so small, collision damage from the speed would become a huge issue.
The prey population fluctuates from 1500 to like 1 each cycle, and the predator population fluctuates from like 500 to around 2 each cycle. There should be huge selection for metabolic speed in prey and scavengery in predators. Either I'm getting really unlucky/lucky or there is a reason that I can't figure out that is causing this.

Hello po. Meron kaming bahay sa tabi ng riles ng PNR. Meron po kaming nakuhang right from the government for over 3 decades na po. I just wanna know kung meron po ba dito recent experience na nagpaconstruct at pinatigil ng PNR yung construction dahil kailangan ng building permit? Nagpunta na kami sa office nila and apparently, humihingi sila ng 9000 pesos per month na danyos.

2025.01.18 05:10 chuchane Making friends at university using personality quizzes works surprising well
 | so at recent meet ups with new people i've met at university, we've started doing personality quizzes as a group to help break the ice and get to know each other better. i think it worked really well and helped us quickly skip over the lame and boring "where are you from?" or "what are you studying?" conversation holes that make me want to tear my hair out. highly recommend the Veggies, Innate and Cosmos ones (all went viral a while ago) or Creative Type (if you feel like the crowd is a bit more ~mature~). have fun! https://preview.redd.it/j5jjhw05rode1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=960b35a7d89737458690cf4f86321385cd93271a submitted by chuchane to deakin [link] [comments] |

 | This is no shade to the reboot I love it just as much if not more as the OG. I do wish they had done a little more with building the demon and underworld side. I’m not saying make it more about the demons or anything but they just never really stuck out in the reboot. I guess I just want a bit more of these feels. But without trying to be too much like the OG. I wanted it in its own way, (I’m just using some as examples as for the pics btw) it was a different time time so I guess I can’t say it would have the same impact. submitted by Illustrious-Cat2323 to CharmedCW [link] [comments] |

2025.01.18 05:10 ubereetswah Trouble deciding between two JVC camcorders.
 | Hey, I'm having trouble deciding between two JVC camcorders as I cant really find much information online on what would better suit my needs, I'm trying to get that grainy vintage home video look while still also having relatively decent resolution and accessibility the two cameras are the JVC Everio GZ-HD300 and the other is the JVC Everio GZ-HD3AA there's about a $90 difference between the two and I'm not sure the price increase is worth it for the more expensive one. Thank you for any advice at all. https://preview.redd.it/ssnf3434rode1.png?width=1679&format=png&auto=webp&s=57ae7ff08963eb317f27054ebe6ef995b92a57f7 https://preview.redd.it/uay4x2j4rode1.png?width=1665&format=png&auto=webp&s=d6efb5a005be6a1f169aa2bdf8b13afe2ef3783d submitted by ubereetswah to camcorders [link] [comments] |

I'm going through a box of old school things and found this question in an end-of-year math quiz from 6th grade. B is incorrect, but I can't even grasp what the question is trying to ask?
Best I've got is "15 two" (as in 35 and 2"one") but that's clearly not the intended answer given it's not available.

2025.01.18 05:10 darklord2316 Bus Frequency
The transportation in Thane west(specifically) is getting worst day by day. The city needs more buses. It sometimes literally takes more than 35 mins to reach station from Upvan. The entire route basically is just of minimum 25 mins. And also sometimes you have to literally wait 20 mins for one bus, or even when the bus has arrived it will be standing idle even when the bus stop is full.
After standing for bus you have to again stand in bus as literlly half of bus is reserved for senior citizen and ladies. Reservation for senior citizen is okay, but why ladies? That too entire left row of the bus? And even though seats are reserved for them they will sit on right side of the bus, reducing even more space for men and boys.
Metro L4 needs to be expedited as delays will only increase the cost. It has already escalated by 63 cr as revealed by RTI. Plus now the recently approved ring metro, and with various real estate projects, will increase the traffic and more importantly, the pollution in the city even more. It will be hell to live in Thane in next 10 years.
(Not talking of autos here)

Disclaimer: This is my personal analysis and not an official statement. Please take it with a grain of salt and feel free to correct me in the comments if there are any mistakes.
- As far as I saw, MBBS is not going to be provided by NEET this year. (as it is not mentioned in the notice).
- All the NEET drama that happened this year.
- Online mode was suggested as mode of examination and many more reforms.
- Problem was number of candidates high to conduct CBT
- Solution: separate exam for MBBS to reduce number of candidates with new reform.
- Yes. You are cooked.
