  If you enjoy EDM/house music even a little bit, you should make sure to watch Fred Again's set with Thomas Bangalter (Daft Punk): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfF8jzBVWvM It's very good. There's a reason it has picked up ~1.1M views in 50 hours.

  I built a thing that helps troubleshoot a broken home internet connection: https://whatswrongwithmyinternet.mapki.com/ This codifies something that I've been doing in an ad-hoc fashion for years. Ping the router, modem, and internet to determine which step along the path is broken. This information helps determine which part of your path to the internet is busted. It's designed to be run on your phone (get the page on mobile data, switch to airplane mode, hit button). Let me kno...

  If you're a fan of Taskmaster, you should preorder their Advent calendar: https://taskmasterstore.com/products/taskmaster-advent-calendar-2026-us We got one last year and it was a lot of fun. The puzzles and tasks were challenging and I'm looking forward to doing it again this year.

  This is a 1h44m video describing in very technical detail how Starlink could use the direct-to-cell antenna on their latest satellites to image the whole globe at ~meters of resolution in real time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbp3kdJZ1_A The simulations gets slightly more approachable in the last ~25% of the video. I like the theory that the "AI" datacenters they're pushing for will actually be to process this data and send it down in a usable format. Makes sense...

  The @osuosl asked for help with funding to keep services going. They power hundreds of open source projects (@openstreetmap, CensusReporter, Debian, Sqlite, etc.) by providing free or low-cost co-location, VMs, storage, distributed mirroring, and more. They give experience to students at OSU, who help maintain the hardware and systems we all rely on. They are a vital piece of the open source world, and need some ideas for funding. If something comes to mind, reach out and I will pass it along.

  Aaron has made several improvements to the @openstreetmap live edit viewer Show Me The Way over the last few days. It now tries to show more edits at the same time and is more conservative with panning. Give it a shot! https://osmlab.github.io/show-me-the-way
