I plan to write a bit about that when I finish (Dec 27 will mark one year from when I started). Here are a couple things I noticed: 1) This was my big goal for the year. One book a week that I've never read, instead of getting in bette

The full list: https://gitlab.com/rlease/Books My list lines up with a lot of books that people have recommended here, so I'll try to add a few favorites that haven't been mentioned so far. Fiction: 1. Ubik -

As others have mentioned, zip codes might not have any geometry at all (point zips), and they are frequently updated/changed. In addition, zips do not follow standard constraints that other defined region types do. For instance, counti

This story makes me smile. My father retired a few years ago, and immediately went to work on a kit airplane he and a friend bought together. He flies it semi-weekly, depending on the weather, and is working on building another plane on day

PBS did an interesting, long documentary filming the build and certification process for the 777. It's broken into 5 different, hour long parts that can be found on Youtube ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oyWZjdXxlw
