I had a Frontier flight last week and apparently Frontier just… doesn’t participate in precheck? It was a rude awakening being back in the normal line, I do not pack with the intention of pulling out my laptop

“AI is going to replace technical writers” 🤪

love a bit of continvouclous morging

(Yes I’m aware I outed my Reddit I don’t care lol)

Someone on r/gis asked “How do people just know how to write JavaScript, Python, and SQL to make GIS things?” I wrote a long-ish reply with some info on getting started (and a small rant on why I think generating code via AI can be dangerous when learning): www.reddit.com/r/gis/s/L6oC...

you guys

Okay the Pats found the formula, just have someone punch Stefon Diggs every time you need a TD

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

Only one who got the ball into the end zone was Bad Bunny

Hearing “Christian Gonzalez, Oregon” just now tickled me so much (but also go Seahawks)

Green Day have to be the only band to play 924 Gilman and the Super Bowl

Oh yeah definitely, working on the Directions API at Mapbox exposed me to the joys and frustrations of getting from one place to another

I think I wanna write about the idea of lowest cost paths and routing in general but I gotta wait for the synapses to do their thing

I was planning on doing a little explainer about routing and how it works and why it's important but my head isn't working and I'm watching this person who was ON MY BLOCK drive farther and farther away and it's very frustrating so keep an eye out for that later!

(many thanks to @mapcenter.com and @tmcw.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy for reminding me what this is called, I'm having crazy brain fog right now)

This made me wonder what tool this company is using to do their routing. This is the "traveling salesman" problem, one of many problems routing algorithms seek to solve! And whatever tool they're using is not taking it into consideration.

I'm at home waiting for an important delivery that requires my signature. I have no way of contacting the driver, but I can see a periodically-updated location. They're doing a bunch of deliveries in Brooklyn. They keep getting closer to me, and then farther away.

Cover letters are hard! I don't know how to frame them but I always want to include them (I am a writer after all) but really I just wanna say HI I THINK THIS IS COOL AND I'D BE GOOD AT IT

DHS said that the woman CBP shot in the chest in Portland was “involved” in a gang shooting.

Her ~involvement~ was that suspected gang members sexually assaulted and robbed her.

Democrats should demand every sitting Republican decry this attack and explicitly denounce it, and then censure all of them when they don’t do it. Act like normal decent humans defending your colleague.

Standing Rock and Sisseton Wahpeton Tribal Members Arrested as ICE Terrorizes Minnesota Censored News is a service to grassroots Indigenous Peoples engaged in resistance and upholding human rights.

Six. Six Indigenous people have been kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis in less than 3 weeks. And that's just the ones we know about. Three of them have not been released.

Help Rodney Taylor, a Disabled Double Amputee Being Held by ICE Rodney has been in the country more than 40 years. He's in solitary confinement in Georgia, being denied disability accommodations and having his medical needs ignored. He must be released.

If you’re feeling helpless amidst the ongoing horrors being perpetrated by ICE… engage in mutual aid.

Donate to someone in need. Give to a community library or food bank.

You could also help Rodney Taylor, a disabled double amputee who’s been held by ICE for a year.

His story is often forgotten:

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.

This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

2026 baby let's goooooo

My cardiovascular and central nervous systems don't understand the whiplash of witnessing societal collapse --> looking for a job --> watching football --> taking care of my family --> snowstorm --> working on mapping projects --> trying to feed myself --> sleep and exercise

A moment of silence that ends with someone shouting "fuck ICE!" and the crowd roaring in response
