It is expected OpenStreetMap.org will be offline briefly for maintenance later. We have to stop some systems briefly to get the OpenStreetMap planet diffs (minutely / hourly / daily) back into sync with the database. The maintenance window will be announced as soon as possible.

The #OpenStreetMap planet replication diffs are not currently updating. We are trying to get the issue resolved as soon as possible. #OSM

Look, I know AI is controversial, but just for a moment, let's set aside our preconceived notions, our biases, the environmental impact, the massive cost to train and run models, the labor exploitation, the intellectual property theft, the inaccuracies, the mania it causes in users, the destruction of search, the deskilling of professionals, the devaluation of creative work, job losses, and lack of economic value from enterprise implementations.

Wait, what were we talking about?

I bet my fiancée that this picture of our cats could get 10 billion boosts on Mastodon.

She said she doesn't believe me. She said there's only 13 million accounts on Mastodon. She said there aren't even 10 billion people on Earth. She said it concerns her that I struggle so hard to comprehend large numbers.

Let's prove her wrong everyone. Boost away and show her just how awesome the Mastodon community is.

I have watched my life burn to the ground and started again from scratch many, many times.

I believe in second acts and second chances.

I want to say this clearly for anyone who needs to hear it: it is possible to survive radical, unexpected and unwanted life changes, to start again, and to build a new life that is worth living.

If anyone else is wondering why #overpass isn't updating on #openstreetmap data, it looks like the minute/hourly replication has been down for 3-4 hours or so. Screenshot from https://prometheus.openstreetmap.org/d/IVIfFw57z/planet.

Visiting Aarhus and up for an art walk?

Here is a uMap showing the murals from the 17 Walls project – plus many other mural locations in the city (that are mapped in OpenStreetMap). A great way to explore Denmark’s second-largest city through public art.
