Push to `main` (or run the `Pages` workflow manually) to deploy.\n5. Site URL becomes: `https://bcorfman.github.io/steiner_weasels/`.\n\n## Notes on default scenario parameters\n\nDefaults are inferred from the article + archived HTML markup:\n- Food sources default to `15` (article references 15 repeatedly).\n- Scenario #1 starts with `5` genes/stops (matching the article's scenario #1 description).\n- Child population per generation defaults to `1500` (\"a few thousand\" in article; chosen to keep browser responsive).\n- Earthquake shifts a random subset of food source locations.\n\nThese defaults are in `site/js/app.js` under `STEINER_PRESETS` and are intended to be tuned empirically.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbcorfman%2Fsteiner-weasels","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fbcorfman%2Fsteiner-weasels","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbcorfman%2Fsteiner-weasels/lists"}
