I see a million tech moguls complaining that media coverage has become "anti-tech" like some kind of spontaneous vibe shift, and regrettably few wondering if, maybe, the issue is that a bunch of the tech industry became less worthy of being positive about over the past several years.

The sound this thing makes is so cool. What a clever idea. youtu.be/E1BLGpE5zH0?...

Just came across this demo for 2D As-Rigid-As-Possible deformation on Youtube. Really neat approach. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdvA...

12½ years ago, I made a map of all the buildings in the Netherlands. Unexpectedly, people loved it! Ever since, I have been wanting to make an updated version of the map. Newer data, higher resolution, more interactive! I never got around to it, until last week: bertspaan.nl/buildings

Nice

terradraw.io is one of the projects funded by the OSGeo:UK in the past. If you have/will do any kind of drawing on the maps, James Milner is person for the job. #opensource #geosaptial #event

When I moved from India to London last year, James was kind enough to invite me for a lunch, and now I am inviting him to speak at the first London "Geo" Meetup. James will be presenting on "Undo/Redo in Terradraw". RSVP:: lgm.jsonsingh.com #OSM #OSGeo #Geospatial #Opensource #London #meetup

I couldn't think of anyone better to be the first speaker for the first ever London "Geo" Meetup. Dennis has the dream job working for GEOLYTIX working on open source tech and community. RSVP and more details here: lgm.jsonsingh.com #OSM #OSGeo #Geospatial #Opensource #London #meetup

We just launched the Open Source Endowment, the first endowment dedicated to supporting Open Source maintainers, with $693,000 raised already. The world depends on Open Source, but making our ecosystem sustainable is a complex task. I hope that, with community consultation, the Endowment can help 🙏

Who do we need to lobby to to make @github.com add a "Post on Bluesky" button here?

In graph theory, there are algorithms that find the shortest path between two nodes. I made one with pure CSS (including the graph drawing). Drag the nodes, and the shortest path will update in real-time! css-tip.com/graph-theory/ A fun demo powered by all the modern & cool CSS features 🤩

From random points to village layout. #gamedev

Terra Draw now uses trusted publishing 😎 Easier than I imagined to set up

I tried v7 on Terra Draw and results were interesting - dropped compilation times from about 3.8s to about 0.8s. Weirdly some runs take in the region of 0.07s however 🤯🤔 Would like to understand more about what's happening there

Starting with February 2026, @jsonsingh.com is planning on starting a monthly "London Geo Meetup" for anyone working or interested in geospatial. Looking at a mixed audience of students, professionals, academia and anyone in anything spatial. Interested?: app.formbricks.com/s/cmlb0thuk0...
