Maybe I just spent the entire day doing a weird thing, buuuut :
I wrote detailed API documentation on most of the public APIs of the 
Ukrzaliznytsia online timetable along with a detailed implementation guide to actually write down the code I for gathering real schedule data from Ukraine.
That might finally be my #GTFS for Ukraine 👀 !

Quick update on the crowd-funded solar-powered t-girl operated public information server (aka antifa server). Things are going strong, torrents are seeding.
The next torrent addition will be the latest Epstein files dump. The data being served up comes from https://sciop.net/datasets/.
More details: https://lydie.cc/data.html

It looks like Mauna Loa Observatory data is down.
Is this a technical glitch, or an intentional attack by the science denying disgrace to humanity currently in the White House?
It looks like no new data since Dec. 31st.

Cities collect enormous amounts of data - but most of it lives in silos.
Cloudsyte exists to help local governments bring that information together and turn it into something usable, measurable, and actionable.
More to come.
In case anyone needs some #testing #CreditCard numbers for #API tests:
Here are some from official payment processors' public documentation.
Obviously these WON'T WORK on any non-testing payment system (blocklisted by the payment processors!) so all one will get is declines and being listed as fraudster on any live payment network.
So definitely don't hand them to #scammers (obviously if they're stupid enough to accept 4242 4242 4242 4242 they should get jailtime just for being "criminally stupid") and only use them for responsible testing uses as outlined by payment processors.
These are merely documented for reference for ethical development purposes and cases where one needs something for mockups, as these have the optics of realness (and they checkout as legit numbers per algorithm) but obviously no real card would ever be issued and I'd see this as a more ethical way to test things that to use i.e. Wirecard's assigned BINs cuz those may be reassigned to a different card issuer and thus could actually incur fraudulent charges!

Today, we have the fourth post in the series from Claire McKay Bowen and Aaron R. Williams to help diverse audiences understand and support the federal statistical system. Everyone living in the United States is part of this vast statistical ecosystem and benefits from it—both directly and indirectly. Check
Google is investing $2.25M to improve Africa’s public data systems, building an AI-ready Data Commons and supporting AI training for national statistical offices in Ghana, Rwanda, and Senegal. The upgrade aims to boost data accessibility, government decision-making, and AI-driven development, strengthening Google’s broader Africa AI strategy.
