#30DayMapChallenge Day 7: Accessibility
Built something special for this year's challenge: GeoParquet Visualizer, a browser-based tool to explore and share your maps easily.
Free, open source & super lightweight.
App: https://do-me.github.io/geoparquet-visualizer
GitHub: https://github.com/do-me/geoparquet-visualizer

Zara, who did nothing wrong, does not see any reason to share her bed. (This is not her bed.)

"They like to inflict pain on those people. And they know that if they hold those people hostage & threaten to hurt them, Democrats will eventually break & give them whatever. 'Please, just let them go. Let them go. Whatever you want.' And we've fallen for that way too often. And you know this is going to cause pain." @driftglass

GREAT explanation of how the GOP uses Democrats' VIRTUE against us.

Con la sospensione di fatto dei finanziamenti alle agenzie governative, volare negli USA è diventato pericoloso: a Los Angeles, Airbus di Ita e American Airlines sfiorano la collisione

La registrazione della torre di controllo: 2 aerei decollati da Los Angeles sono passati a distanza troppo ravvicinata l'uno dall'altro: incidente evitato con le tempestive indicazioni della torre di controllo, ecco cosa è accaduto

This is upsetting, and I think a common response is going to be to ditch KeePassXC. I'm not certain that's the best move here. Yes, even as someone who loathes generative models. Here's why.

You cannot meaningfully ban generative code from contributions. So long as this technology exists, people will use it. That's upsetting, but also not immediately changeable. A simple deny policy is both unenforceable and encourages lying about the use of models. A disclosure policy, while also unenforceable, does not encourage lying. Therefore the generative code which will inevitably be submitted has a higher probability of being called out as such with a disclosure policy, rather than a ban. The code submitted under the disclosure can then be put under greater scrutiny, as appropriate.

That said, KeePassXC needs to eat their own dog food. What I see in the Copilot-submitted PRs is all the evidence you want why this is not the best tool for a given job, and exactly why I avoid using these tools in my codebases.

I would hope, at the very least, that the README.md for the repo is updated to make clear that not only must generative code be disclosed, but that such code is contributed already by core maintainers.

Everyone should do what they feel is necessary of course, but as I've warned before, if you constantly demand moral purity of all you work with—including your tools and their creators—you will spend much less time fighting true evil.

I use drugs all the time, and I have a house, healthcare, and a job. Why should we deprive low-income and unhoused people of the freedoms we all engage in?

October 2025 was the 3rd warmest October on record for our planet, following 2023 (1st place) and 2024 (2nd place). This month was about 1.55°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial average. Note that the last 12-months have been about 1.50°C above it.
