@sicchio ohhhhhh

So hypothetically if I made karaoke style subtitles for a movie so that viewers could do a live fan dub, would it be funnier to do this to Titanic or Goodfellas

They're playing CHVRCHES in Rite Aid???

https://observablehq.com/@lifewinning/cleaned-up-hillshade-generator sort of a hack but here is the cross-hatched hillshade map visualizations with cross-hatch bodies of water--because of the particular complexity of the river I'm using as an example I tesselate the water polygons but in theory you might not have to for a basic shoreline or something. Also yes, it loads super-slow sorry

Sat next to a sleepy little corgi on the subway home, NYC is back baby

@geomob @jachym ah hadn't thought of that--maybe let's check back in the fall once I'm a little more into the project

@geomob @jachym yeah let's check back in like a year? I literally just got the money, probably more interesting when I've collected interviews &c

@textnerd @neteler cool, thanks!

@richlv @geospacedman yes! would very much like to avoid academic geography's weird tendency to treat OSM and open source mapping stuff as some weird alternate dimension of GIS

@developmentseed would love to chat for sure!

@sbourne thank you!

@geospacedman I'm looking a bit more at the industry side than government but user stories and gov adoption is certainly relevant

@aredridel OMG amazing

Maybe it's a good time to mention that the grant I got for my PhD research is a project collecting documents and oral histories of GIS software development. Materials collected will eventually be accessioned to the Computer History Museum. If you work/have worked on GIS tools (web mapping is part of it!!) I would love to talk to you!!

Every time ProPublica drops a "Supreme Court justices being corrupt fools" story even if Justin Elliott didn't work on it I imagine him starting the day with a little smile

How do I phrase this for the gram? Like "some personal news instead of dying later this year from burnout and economic precariousness I will die later this year from burnout but I might leave like $500 in a savings account"

Oh no I got the grant, congratulations but also fuck fuck fuck

@sparks it is usually not a big deal except when it is lol
