Iβm an engineer, a tinkerer, a gadget junkie, a techno-pack-rat, a science nerd ... but mostly I am a developer of software for spatial data infrastructures .
Developers! Don't forget that, in the lead up to the joint OGC & @ISOTC211 Metadata Code Sprint, there is a pre-event orientation webinar on Sept 8. The hybrid online and in-person Sprint will focus on #OGCAPI - Records, STAC, ISO 19115, and JSON-FG. https://t.co/ivUTpE1btX
@drmwarner It's the same old story ... starve the beast to create a crisis and then say privatization is the only thing that will solve the crisis ... and friends of those in power profit handsomely. Our friends to the south have that playgbook down pat. God help us!
Citizen scientist at work ... finally had a chance to install my Raspberry SHAKE and BOOM! These are opensource infrasound and earth movement detectors that use Raspberry PI's as their processing boards.
@CandiceBergenMP The Conservative denial of an existential threat to humanity is making Earth less hospitable for you while out-of-control wild fires and floods destroy your home and your life.
@theAliceRoberts Oh please. Scientists of course! However, as C. Sagan pointed out, hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology which may explain the ambivalence people have trusting the scientific method...one of the fruits of which ironically is Twitter!
@joe_cressy You want to build back our city better? Encourage people to buy electric vehicles (and promote clean energy) and make it easier for people get around to live their lives. I direct your attention to the Danforth. No longer a working street ...
@joe_cressy Let me understand ... you are OK with inconveniencing tens or thousands of drivers going to work, taking their kids to school, taking their elderly parents to Drs appointments, etc. to accommodate a few thousand part-time cyclists. Is that correct?
