Week 126
-
Iāve been making something using the āStreet Managerā open data about roadworks in England. There are synergistic synergies with other things Iāve made, and havenāt we all stories of passenging on a motorbus (or another combination of gerund and wheeled noun) only to discover that the gas/water/electricity/telephone wallahs have duggen a big hole without telling anyone?
Thereās already a website that used to be called āroadworks.orgā, now just part of a whole āsuite of operational toolsā made by a whole compamy of beshirted smiling people. I look at it sometimes, itās useful, but is thereās some point in making yet another thing thatās a bit like that existing thing?
Apart from anything else, Iāve been using OpenLayers for the first time, about which I have some complaints, but this isnāt the place.

For some while, Iāve been suspending avodo pits in water, and at last one (an unusally big one) has sprouted roots and a stem so into some compost itās gone, which Iāve just realised is possibly too early so back into the water it will go.

A dog and a person spent a night in the living room here. Some other things happened but Iām tired.
