Eating less meat (especially beef) is a good start. This is a mayor cause of deforestation in the Amazon. In Papua, Indonesia it’s palm oil.

It’s using the Wayback Imagery from ArcGIS. I’m loading the layers based on a list of ids (url in the config).

There’s also some logic involved in making sure the user only sees the layers with new data in it. That’s running on the client and it’s quite heavy.

In a similar vein I once made this: https://lumber-jack.netlify.app/

I like that, I must admit I also forgot about wind, but it makes sense.

I do feel like there's less wind here in the Netherlands than before. But maybe that's just my personal experience after moving to a larger city.

Those are really nice!

Thanks and that’s really interesting. I wanted to do rainfall next. It’s been really wet here this winter. And the summers have been a lot drier. Can’t wait to see the heatmap for that.

Something I've been working on this weekend: visualising climate change in the Netherlands.

I particularly liked the heatmap with monthly temperature data since the 1900s. It's a lot of scrolling, but you can clearly see that climate is accelerating since the '90s.

+1 I also really liked that book. It's also something you could read many times and still find value in it.

Ah good point. I would also have preferred trunk. But I can imagine the transition from master -> trunk would have been too much to ask for many users?

Looks great, thanks for sharing this for free!

Quick feedback on the website: The left side of the components preview pages falls off the left side of my screen (Chrome, 13'' Mac).

I think it's just you: https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/accounts.google.com

Looks very nice, well done! Should be fun to play with the team.

Go Alexander[1], go!

I was immediately thinking about early morning in Asia, still dark outside, everybody puts the kettle on.

If these long distance cables really can transport energy efficiently it might solve some of the challenges with renewables!

What I really like about this is that you open the dependency in a web browser and see the human readable source code. No transpiling! https://deno.land/std/http/server.ts

Nice, I like how short and simple it is. The title seems to imply it runs on multiple datacenters. How does it sync messages between those?

Google could have made Gmail to work on Chrome (just on Android) as a show case what would be possible on a good browser. It's true that Safari is lagging behind in features, but I don't believe it's the only reason.

Really cool to see what's possible in desktop browsers these days. Photoshop coming to our browsers is a huge achievement and milestone.

But it also makes me kinda sad that none of the mentioned examples properly work on mobile. If even big web companies can't pull that off, is it impossible? (Mainly thinking about Gmail and Google Docs here). Or have we given up on web applications on mobile?

I think Liveview was designed specifically for the browser, but you could use a web view to use this functionality.

A Leuchtturm notebook and the Bullet Journal method!

Nice find!

Wayfinder was just released by Matt DesLauriers, more about his project can be found on his Twitter: https://twitter.com/mattdesl/status/1405231431970963457

I read somewhere that when we fall asleep our body temperature is lowered a bit, maybe that’s what’s happening?

if I remember correctly CircleCI is the only CI-provider that would let you run their pipelines/actions locally in a Docker container. That worked really well for me, quick feedback loop without creating commits.

Bankers don't need focus, any monkey can beat the market [1], but monkeys can't bill 80 hours a week for it.

That would mean almost nobody uses Java these days...

It’s probably not a good metric since Node/Express uses a more modular design but Express is downloaded more than 10 million times every WEEK.

Does anyone know what would be a good metric to compare usage sizes of different frameworks?

This is a really cool idea, but I did notice a full page refresh on mobile Safari. It’s not the app-like experience you get with SPA’s

And also that big lake next to it rapidly disappearing. Isn’t that something to worry about?
