It's pavo con mole oaxaqueño , arroz a la jardinera, acorn squash with Cholula chili crisp and honey, jicama with an orange vinaigrette, charro beans with chicharron, pecan pie, and Basque cheesecake this year.

Gonna watch Aztec Batman because I love Diego Rivera's painting Aztec Soldier

This weekend is a great time to visit the Map Center because the whole building is gonna be throwing its doors wide open.

996 sounds like anything but therapy

If genAI ran flights, it would be a mystery flight, you don't know if you take off, where you'll land, or just run out of tokens and crash

this requires mind bleach

United's older planes have barf bags.

Huh, United no longer has barf bags

Let's do simple stupid math. ATL is a +100 MAP - Million Air Passengers airport. At 10%, that's 10 million passengers over a year. Holiday travel estimates are 4 million passengers. Sounds like a recipe for economic pain.

I'm prepping for tomorrow's FOSS4GNA version of Hand Drawn Maps, making sure the camera works with this computer. Join me tomorrow for some map fun! #gischat

Important to note that New Mexico ranks 41st in state GDP, yet free childcare is a priority, unlike many wealthier states.

A movie you've seen more than seven times with a gif

The airport is playing Flock of Seagulls in the terminal. I feel so old. It's the equivalent of hearing the Andrews Sisters sing Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy in the 1980s. Worlds that no longer exist.

Speaking as someone who has received public assistance, Americans love to offer aid then gatekeep because they love to punch down on people in need. Makes them feel superior or some stupid shit.

Why does this robot have an ass?

As someone who has run campaigns, last minute endorsements do little to move the needle. It's a weasley move motivated by a hint of being primaried.

Confluence, which looks and behaves as a glorified wiki from the early 2000s, is still a thing. How is this possible when there are collaboration tools that don't require you to hit a save button to make a change?

I would be ashamed if my alma mater, @utaustin.bsky.social, signed the Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education which undermines academic independence and freedom and fiscally binds it to a political agenda.

I strip away the old debris, that hides a shining car A brilliant red Barchetta, from a better, vanished time Fire up the willing engine, responding with a roar! Tires spitting gravel, I commit my weekly crime…

FOSS4GNA is coming in November 2025 I realize as I type this I should have said something sooner. So I'll be in Reston November 3-5th 2025 talking, hanging out, and annoying people at FOSS4GNA 2025. If you're at the conference track me down. If you're in the area and you're interested in QGIS…

more map stuff from @mapcenter.com! Detail of a Soviet map of central Texas centered on San Antonio. Note the Air Force bases. How these maps were made are described in The Red Atlas: How the Soviet Union Secretly Mapped the World. Available at the Map Center.

Stopped by and chatted with @mapcenter.com today. Fun shop for map nerds and the geo curious. Checked out Maps on Vinyl and picked up a cool map of central Texas in Russian.

By December, no one will remember, no one will care.

I enjoy paying the cheese tax.

2023 - a block from my house, 2 teenagers shot in the head over a vape deal gone bad 2021 - saw a friend on Saturday, told husband she was divorcing him, killed her on Monday 2018 - friend killed in the Capital Gazette mass shooting 1983 - friend killed in a robbery America is a violent place.

Oh, you sweet summer children. Kids at my daughter's school were watching cartels beheading people on YouTube.

Aw shit, now I'm considering renewing my NRA instructor certs.

Sad FOSS4G news, Darrell Fuhriman, who organized the 2014 event in Portland, and has been a giving and supportive open source person forever, is in a bad way. If you can help in any way, please do. www.gofundme.com/f/help-darre...

Watch how seismometers recorded the passing earthquake waves from the magnitude 8.8 earthquake off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula. Each dot in this animation is a seismic station—red 🔴 means the ground moved up, blue 🔵 means it moved down. More ➡️ https://loom.ly/6Eo_fYc

The only player this systematically helps is probably the PRC, because they can run massive AI training datacentres with Xinjiang coal, and not have to think about the cost of importing the chips, the cost of paying non-slave-labour, or the cost of the electricity.

I'm looking for my next thing, and I need to move fast. I have several years of experience in developer relations from startups to the enterprise, and I'm particularly skilled at distilling complex topics into something easily understood by newbies and non-technical folks alike, on stage or off. 1/3
