There was an NPR story one time about how a poisonous toad that had been introduced to an area was causing mass mortality events for crocodiles and other predators.

The solution was to take out the poison from toads, inject them with a compound that makes the crocodiles nauseous, and then set them up as bait for the crocodiles. The crocodiles then learned not to eat the toads.

Of course, any sort of attempt with a similar method should be cleared with your local government. It's not something that some vigilantes should be trying to handle alone without the proper guidance, safety, and approvals in place.

Web based. You can "install" the Web App, but it doesn't seem to allow for any additional features that I can tell.

For offline modes, CoMaps and OsmAnd+ are my go to.

Cartes is probably the closest thing that I've found (besides Apple Maps or Bing Maps).

• You can share links with anyone, and they don't need a particular app to open it.
• The interface will be familiar to Google maps users.
• It supports leaving reviews for locations.
• It will pull up Wikipedia information and photos if any have been uploaded to Wikimedia or Panoramax.
• It's really good for public transit routing.
• It's okay for planning driving routes, but for turn by turn directions you'll want to use CoMaps (which Cartes has a link to open up the route there).

There is a newer version control software that's meant to handle larger files (mostly geared towards game developers). I wonder if that would work well here?

This reminds me of the Free Law Project, where there's a large network of people that upload court documents for anything that they've paid for initial access to.

The changelog notes:

22.1.1:

• Fix database migration caused crash when upgrading from 22.0 or earlier
• Fix ACRA tries to use TLS 1.1 this causes issues on newer Android versions
• Fix protect against null preset path
• Fix actually save tile in onSaveInstanceState
• Fix starting a foreground service can throw a SecurityException, catch it
• Add rendering for highway=via_ferrata
• Change remove entries for public and private GPX visibility
• Update root certificates
• Update default preset
• Update translations
• Update tag2link
• Update imagery from ELI

MapComplete is more of a web app that can also be a good option here. It also allows you to leave reviews for locations, which will show up on CoMaps, as well as upload images of locations/menus/etc.

Usually weekly updates.

The update process takes a little bit, so by the time the update hits, expect the data to be a snapshot from a day or two before.

This is awesome, thanks!
Looks like it's working fine in other countries as well.

The answer to your question is very situational. Is this someone you just met, are you currently friend-zoned, is this someone you've already been officially dating for a while?

In other words, what stage are you at in this relationship?

This sounds like a situation where you're currently friend-zoned, so I'll answer with that assumption.

You're going to get a lot of opinions on this kind of question, one way or another, and some of this will just depend on what part of the world you live in. In my opinion, the best way out of the friend-zone is to just be direct and ask them out on an official date. This lets them know that you really are interested in them without putting too much pressure on them. At that point, it's on them to figure out how to respond.

If they are interested, they'll respond positively. If they aren't, they'll either say no, come up with excuses, or back out last minute. If they cancel on you, do they really sound like they sincerely want to go on a date with you? If you're not sure, give them another chance, but if you find that they consistently cancel on you, then it's time to move on/just keep them as a friend.

That's a great list! I'm going to add one more for Cartes:

The maps usually get updated weekly. The 3D buildings only show up once you zoom in close.

I'm honestly surprised by your comment. Is this based on one specific experience you had with someone?

I have also lived there, but I never met any member of that faith who would be offended by being called a Christian. It has always been the opposite experience for me.
