Experimenting with #OpenStreetMap admin borders and filtering by if they are part of multiple admin relations at their lowest admin_level. Ends up hiding borders on water where they aren't between multiple countries.

This is the first solid freeze of the winter with ice everywhere. Fortunately I can get rid of ice with salt while those out east have to shovel.

It looks like #sotmus2024 and @sotmus are the other tags people are using. So I'll echo the above call for anyone interested in getting food after talks on Saturday.

Amazing to see someone use their car to make dumb macho threats and receive immediate and decisive correction. I want to stand up and applaud

Just now: Outside White House, a man positioned car in front of Palestine protesters and began revving engine.
Chaotic scene as officers tore him out of the car, struggling to repel crowd as they arrested the man.
His intentions/affiliation were not immediately clear.

Unfortunately from today you can no longer login to OpenStreetMap.org using a Facebook login. Facebook introduced new requirements to use the feature, but despite us submitting the required documents & reaching out to them they were unable to verify us before the deadline.

Great to see privacy-protective moves, but this is only one of many, many ways that Google collects location data. I think it'll be a while before LE loses interest
NOTABLE: Google announces dramatic changes to its "location history" function that should nullify all geofence warrants going forward—and I wouldn't be surprised if that is the point. Code is law, as they say.

Really pleased to have this live! The EU is on the cusp of making a huge contribution to the world via the Open Data Directive. But to maximize its impact, they must choose the right license. In this case, that means CC-0.

I've booked all my trains for travelling in the UK after #sotmeu. It was a somewhat irritating experience, unlike in North America, where you just can't get any trains.
