OPEN SOURCE IS AWESOME!

As part of the #30DayMapChallenge I wanted to convert #svg to #GeoJSON Aside from the usual offerings of web-based convertors I found a single GitHub repo providing a rudimentary script but it had not been touched in over 3 years.
https://github.com/rhansson/svg2omap

I tried it, and only had to update a single #numpy call to make it work again!

Opened my fixes as PRs, fearing the worst (abandonware), but 1hr later they're merged it's and a functional tool again :D

Restoring some faith in humanity and the gifting economy.

This is an excellent intro to linear algebra for anyone getting into #numpy or #ML and wanting a primer.

🐍 I don’t like NumPy

｢ NumPy is all about applying operations to arrays. When the arrays have 2 or fewer dimensions, everything is fine. But if you’re doing something even mildly complicated, you inevitably find yourself with some operation you want to apply to some dimensions of array A, some other dimensions of array B, and some other dimensions of array C. And NumPy has no theory for how to express that ｣
