@sgillies @cartocalypse Lordy I did some hacky shit with streaming data through OGR when I was working on ArcGIS Open Data/Koop

@bil what was the damage?

@artfletch omg yes you absolutely should. You could take these same source images and run them through Luma’s pipeline. I would be super interested to see the results.

@artfletch awesome as always! Have you made any NeRFs yet?

A few weeks ago Overture Maps was announced, a collaboration between AWS, Meta, Microsoft, and TomTom to "create reliable, easy-to-use, and interoperable open map data"

This generated wave of speculation about what it might mean for OpenStreetMap and players like Google

In Ep. 163 of our podcast @stevenfeldman interviews @Mprioleau
of Meta about what Overture Maps hopes to be, why it was formed, and its intended place in the geospatial ecosystem.

Can we also take a moment to note that "woke", as used here, was originally a Black American term for being aware of systemic racism, and in just a few years, the US right turned it into a totally content-free sneer? And the entire English-speaking media basically just ran with it, to the extent that you now hear it used in _Finnish_?

Because that's white supremacy for you. Criticism, even awareness, of the racist power structure will not be tolerated.

This 1986 chart of tech diffusion in the auto industry is instructive in thinking about Tesla and the fact it's valued as much as the entire rest of the car industry.

That valuation assumes this trend of differentiators becoming standard won't happen in EVs which is ahistorical.

@mzedp prepare to have your mind blown

@mzedp have you tried Luma?

@stemid love it

@GuyNamedBrian following hashtags is awesome, but I think they are limited to one instance (your home instance?)

@geospacedman reads of those posts are still ordered by chronology rather than my likelihood to favorite, boost, or follow a link. I think those signals would create a better experience for me.

@stemid this is cool. What I’m really looking for is something personalized. So take something like this and limit the inputs to people I follow

It would be super interesting to have a federated recommendation algorithm on Mastodon. I don’t know about y’all, but I miss having a prioritized feed. With Mastodon, I feel like I’m missing some big stuff, but I’m not willing to scroll back the entire timeline.
