Un truc que j’aime beaucoup ici, ce sont les plans de quartier artisanaux avec les noms des commerces qu’on trouve accrochés un peu partout.

Esthétiquement, je les trouve souvent étrangement satisfaisants avec leur schématisation bancale, leurs couleurs moches et leur mélange de polices d’écriture   

Petit florilège (1/?)

Here’s a little something I put together this week: Pinhead Map Icons. I was tired of digging through a bunch of different sources to find good cartographic icons, so I compiled all the public domain sources I could find into one unified set. You’ll see familiar faces from the likes of iD, OSM Carto, and National Park Service maps, plus some newcomers. Let me know what you think!

I built my wife a tool to survive her PhD and thought other researchers might want it too. Zotero's essential for citations, but she was struggling to know what to read next versus what she'd already read.

Paperstack is basically Goodreads for academic papers. Import from Zotero, sort by stack and tag, achieve calm.

"Ministers in Cardiff needlessly abandoned their favourite font for legal documents, when a version fully supporting the Welsh language was ready and waiting, the owner of the typeface has said."

Finally it's here: Jupyter notebooks inside QGIS. I don't know about you but I've been hoping for someone to get around to doing this for quite a while.
