I don’t like nested functions.
So here's a small stylistic thing I do.
I wrote a simple Python Class that allows you to define functions and then add them to a pipeline that works similar to how method calls work.
The Pipeline class passes the output of each function to the next in the list.

Let's leave the term "GIS" in 2024.
GIS is software. Or at best a suite of software.
It's not a job title. It's not a career. It's not a discipline.
Tie your work to a single tool, you lose credibility AND income.
The world needs geospatial problem solvers, not software operators.
#GIS #Geospatial
Geospatial, spatial data science, location intelligence, GIS, geographic analytics, digital cartography…
As a community, we need to make the way we talk about location data and analytics more accessible.
Picking a single term to use would be a good place to start
#GIS #Geospatial #geography #ESRI
Sounds about right. I could certainly spin up my own blog site, but I wouldn’t then be able to connect with other people in the same way.
Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy...
Anyone know a good blogging alternative to Substack and Medium?
I love the community of writers on Substack but I can't abide the sales-funnel of 6+ clicks that are required just to subscribe to someone's blog.
Who would you like to passive-aggressively gift this to this holiday season?
If you’ve never taken the ferry into SF after sunset, you’re missing out
Them: "When did you first start using H3 hexagons as a spatial index?"
Me: "Well...that depends on what counts..."
Working on geospatial software? Let me know so I can add you to the Geospatial Developers starter pack: go.bsky.app/cnR8bN #gischat #leafletjs #geojson #maplibre #openlayers
Personally, I really like the idea that I can choose the algorithm that determines what shows up in my feed.
I was never super active on Twitter, but Linkedin has gotten worse and worse as they've continued to change their algorithm.
I am and would love to be added
I'd love to connect to more people in geospatial. Anyone know of specific starter packs I could be added to?
Just joined. Thanks to @lindastevens.bsky.social for recommending the platform on Linkedin. Somehow I had not heard of BlueSky before now.
