I'm not a huge fan of the reverse chronological timeline in #mastodon, because it is bad for threads and makes me read stuff in reverse order and question myself if I've seen a status already or not when scrolling down. So I made an attempt at creating a Mastodon client showing a chronological order:
https://mapeper.github.io/chrono-todon/
I kind of like it, but it only barely classifies as a proof of concept and will need a lot more work to be usable, which I will probably never get to.

Habe jetzt schon mehrfach gehört, dass ein Problem von #emobility ist, dass die Leitungen zu den Häusern nicht ausreichen und deshalb erst die Stadtwerke neue legen müssen. Könnte das nicht "einfach" über den vorhandenen Herdanschluss und ein Lastabwurfrelais realisiert werden?
Laden, wenn der Herd aus ist wirkt auf mich wie eine sehr akzeptable Lösung/ein guter Kompromiss.
Oder übersehe ich da etwas?

I made a web version of the sea-surface-temperature anomaly plot, that was shared a lot a few days ago: https://mapeper.github.io/sea_surface_temperature_anomaly/

Automatically updates when new data becomes available from Climate Reanalyzer.

Today I discovered https://www.whocanuse.com and I wanted to yell it to the world, but 56 people will have to do.
WhoCanUse

A tool that brings attention and understanding to how color contrast can affect people with different visual impairments.

1/? Kindness in television

I recently watched as much #Taskmaster as I could get my hands on - I laughed until I cried!

But thinking on it more, I find myself fascinated by the format and how very #kind it is. Alex Horne, the creator, talks in interviews about how it was hard to initially get #comedian contestants because they feared they'd be cruelly made fun of, in this 'competitive' task based show. But Alex creates tasks as 'the first half of a joke' and lets them find their own funny.

can someone invent something like a dating site but you list all your special interests and you find compatible infodumping partners by proximity between your mutual interests?

My current hobby programming project got me into a math rabbit hole: I needed to calculate the shape of the intersection of the sRGB color-space with a Y-plane in the xyY space and couldn't find the answer online.

To solve it, I used symbolic math in #Python with #sympy for the first time. Was a lot of fun, despite some smaller hiccups.

The rendered notebook describing my solution is here: https://mapeper.github.io/sRGB_Y_section_in_xyY_space/ (⚠ comparatively large page)

So my math education wasn't useless after all! 🥳

Also got to write a CORS-proxy in Powershell/C# - which was something entirely new to me. 😅

I somehow felt inclined to also try my hand at creating a #fedifinder -like tool, but with the premise, that it *really* does not require giving any data or access to your account to someone else's server.

Because of technical reasons, it can only be used with a CORS-proxy or by temporarily disabling CORS-checks, though.

Don't expect too much. It doesn't match up to Luca's app in the slightest and is more like a proof-of-concept and fun-project.
