Appreciate it! So it's pretty compute intensive - my machine also doesn't love it. I wanted to get the general gist of it out there before optimizing, but I'll try my best. For the below the horizon bit - that was the only wa

Super helpful points - thank you! Definitely gonna implement some more clustering. The zooming in/out being annoying bit I hadn't thought of, but now that it's mentioned I kind of see it myself too. I actually started with a

Ah yes! So this is something I'm struggling with from a UX perspective (could use some feedback from anyone here). News tied to a specific place gets pinned there (like an article about the Blue Jays being pinned at the Toronto Skydome

Thanks! One of my favourite accidental things to come out of it was the "highlighting" of rural news. Stuff in a city like Toronto, which usually dominates my feed, gets kind of lost in all the other stories, while things in rural

This exactly. I find that I don't remember how to do some of the things I used to have more easily memorized, but I still need the fundamentals when things go horribly wrong and I need to dive into code myself.

this is amazing! I'm actually working on a similar ATC transcription project, but more along the lines of education / entertainment for non-pilots. I'm gonna be posting a YT video about it soon, but would love to chat if you

this bugged me too. I tried to keep the colours respective to the company logos. Any other recommendations for a metra colour?

mostly just because this was a weekend project and I needed to draw the line somewhere. I'm not necessarily opposed to it, but I reckon it'll take a good amount more time.

looks like it's at least possible! https://www.mta.maryland.gov/marc-tracker https://www.transit.land/feeds/f-brightline~trails~rt I'll add them to the list and investigate; thanks!

I did a bit of a deep dive on this over the weekend and left feeling more confused than when I started. From what I can gather, outside of CN's holiday freight train, most of the tracking is done by community members with SDR antennas

I'm currently on the wait-list for the API. Took me 2 days to even figure out how to register.

Yeah, I'm going to add a disclaimer about this. I've been watching the GO trains from my window this morning and they lag about a minute behind. My site grabs data on a minute interval, and I know some of the API's say they p

thanks! I did a quick write up about it here: https://rydercalmdown.com/projects/trains-fyi/ The hardest part was learning about GTFS-RT, which was a data format I wasn't familiar with until now.

Thanks! A CLI tool is an interesting idea. I originally built something similar [as a python package]( https://github.com/ryderdamen/fromchaos ) to basically force LLMs to return data in a specific format, so I could pro

So there are definitely some features I'd like to add / improve upon: - json/yaml/etc validation - better pre-filtering before the openAI api call to save money - custom select (instead of the whole page) - adjustable mo

This is neat! One of my sites is on this list - I'm gonna have to put up a 418 on it as well.

I've got a feeling some of the posts that do mention "part-time" are just signalling, which is why I have a ton of them marked "part-time possible" instead of just part-time. If you have any better classification id

Yep definitely. I'm thinking I'll brand it specifically as "Side Quest Jobs", and hopefully that'll create enough differentiation.

I saw this, but not until after I had purchased the domain. I always get too excited and commit before researching.

Yeah I actually built this after having a bit of frustration trying out freelancing platforms. What surprised me is as a freelancer, on some of them, I have to pay to apply to gigs. I mean I get it, but it still doesn't seem right.
