@janellecshane I got your book! Actually I asked my wife nicely to grab it from the book store in DIA as she was passing through.. It has been a fun read so far!

So.. #gis nerds behold. I have gotten a Perl script to kick out WKT of hexagons across a lat/long bounding box at whatever size in meters I tell it to and dump them into a database.

It was fast at 10 mile bin size, a little slower at 1 mile, but I just dropped it to 9 meters (over about 1/6 of the CONUS) and it has slowed down in creation... but it will get done and won't crash like QGIS did when I attempted the same thing with their python script.

Then the actual fun on binning millions of points to these geometries and making pretty colors!

So @vkc posted this and it has made me pause..

However I do not know if I could keep up with my pocket peeps anymore, my handset is my exclusive gateway into masto. I mean clearly I can prune down what I do and do not have installed, but clearly distraction control seems to be the point, or at least a major sub-plot.

OK #thinkpad fans, time to learn your lore of the TrackPoint. The chonky lappy is vintage 1994ish.

The medium with which you choose to pirate media is like rings on a tree, it defines when you chose to engage in such activities and really when you may have become proficient using the internet.

Torrent: late aughts to mid teens

Limewire: early to mid aughts

Napster: late 90's

nntp, ftp: any time prior
