General information
Dypsis ligulata is a single-stemmed evergreen palm growing 4 – 8 metres tall. The unbranched stem can be 15 cm or more in diameter, topped by a crown of leaves. The plant is harvested from the wild for local use as a food and medicine.
There is insufficient data to assess the status of this species. It has not been seen in the wild since 1923 and the humid forest at Ambilobe has not been well surveyed. The plant is classified as 'Data Deficient' in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (2011).
gollark: Yes.
gollark: Oh, that's declaring the existent of the variable `stmt`.
gollark: Which `let`?
gollark: This lets me do this```javascriptconst getPage = name => SQL`SELECT * FROM pages WHERE name = ${name} ORDER BY updated DESC LIMIT 1`.get() || null```*without* the glaring SQL injection vulnerabilities!
gollark: ```javascriptexport const SQL = (strings, ...params) => { const sql = strings.join("?") let stmt const cachedValue = preparedStatements.get(sql) if (!cachedValue) { stmt = DB.prepare(sql) preparedStatements.set(sql, stmt) } else { stmt = cachedValue } return { get: () => stmt.get.apply(stmt, params), run: () => stmt.run.apply(stmt, params), all: () => stmt.all.apply(stmt, params), statement: stmt }}```observe some stuff from my code.
