Route lines added. I think I'm 200 lines of JS deep. Now I gotta figure out the first UX to build. Maybe it is: Load web page, provid station/stop, and getting answers from there. I think I could try to use that and see how good.

Back on my Atlanta MARTA bus experiment, and already up to 100+ lines of maplibre spaghetti. We'll see if I make it to route/stop filtering and adding trip paths.

Put it together after I found some tweezers and glue.

The most brain damage I've managed to land on the runner in Android Netrunner. I've taken five previously so there's still room for more!

MARTA turned off the old train API URL, so I switched to the new one. This new endpoint has 🆕 `IS_REALTIME` flags and way more entries. It is a kinda exciting day for marta.io! Near-terminal stations like chamblee have some good schedule data. All thanks to improvements MARTA has made.

Pretty impressed with my early fiddling on the new COSMIC desktop that System76 has been working on. I put it through the paces with some Steam games, terminal typing, and web browsing, and it went surprisingly solid! www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/06/cosm...

marta.io got another rewrite within the last several months and I think it's in its best era yet:
- server-side rendered HTML/CSS with a sprinkle of JS
- much lighter your cell service, a few KB of gzipped html/css every 10s (vs old JSON blob)
- a single repo to maintain github.com/jakswa/round...

I tested out how well Atlanta's in-progress Trolley Trail can hook up to the Stone Mountain PATH route. It's pretty good already! Left the trails to hit Pullman Path but I liked it on my gravel bike. www.strava.com/activities/1...

I can't remember the last time I got to over-invest in an HTTP 404 page. The new server-rendered marta.io repo has one now though. For now, if you typo a URL you'll get some sad/lonely lofi transit imagery. marta.io/stations/mar...
