This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.

I didn’t have my LEGO elements with me, so I used whatever pieces I had to build a tiny Georgia map. It’s probably the least geometrically/topologically accurate LEGO map, but it's still a strong candidate for the cutest one. 😅🍑

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

I too like this technique. I think it works esp well if you use the same colors for your dots as the heatmap. Here's an example I made a while ago for how to do this in Ultra: overpass-ultra.us/docs/Example...
Interactive heatmaps that fade away to reveal points on zoom - a useful technique for handling dense spatial data.

I have a local bias because I live in VA, but I really do think Jay "Two Bullets" Jones' decisive W for AG in a light-blue state against a white incumbent is the biggest red flag for the GOP last night. Even voters that *claimed* to care about his out-of-pocket texts still voted for him:
Lots to unpack from last night. Here's one result that will worry Republicans. Very flawed candidate whose text messages were deemed disqualifying by 41% of voters. And concerning by another 27%. Yet he won handily with ~53%. Clear rebuke to the candidate with (R) next to his name.

Are get out the vote campaigns just lying now? I got both snail-mail and sms spam claiming I haven't voted every year since living in Virginia, yet I have, as confirmed by my vote.elections.virginia.gov voter history.
