I know where I won’t be going in a week…

Despite all the hype and technological “advancements” Haiku 4.5 is still utterly useless

Happening now: a bear 🐻 has climbed up the side of #Whistler Four Seasons and is exploring the room decks, probably trying to find a way inside 😂

Let me get this sensor HAT tightened up and I'm totally game to whiteboard. Will be a week or two and let's set up a date.

I think one of the key nuances I can’t quite figure out is “who” stores the historical data? The PDS? I think it has to go somewhere and it seems more efficient to design the PDS to query it locally?

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Very cool! Yes would love to chat more. Let’s find a time over DM. Below is a seismic/infrasound board I’m working on (with attached FPGA for our internal chip development at biscut.ai) and my goal has been to figure out a network around all of it

130

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Making sure I understand this correctly, if we stand up our own PDS that supports these lexicons we can federate and display each others data? And I can query your historical records and vice-versa? Are you working on any seismic or infrasound waveform?

200

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

This is brilliant! Did you create a new lexicon or are you proxying data into ATproto? Can you view a live stream? (I didn’t see a way to do that)

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Interesting, I see @emily.space and I both stumbled on the OGC sensorthings API docs.ogc.org/is/15-078r6/...

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Drafted up what the equivalent of ATproto could look like for sensor data like waveform streams and historical lookup. Curious what researchers out there think of this. @bmann.ca @ronentk.me gist.github.com/crockpotvegg...

Minority government sometimes encourages better policy so that sounds good to me

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

I think this election is very unnecessary and a power grab. Disappointing. However, don’t underestimate Lorne. He’s very likeable, very much advocates for his constituents. He might be their best leader yet.

100

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Ha, given our deficit a tax cut seems like a bad idea. Deregulation isn’t the problem, the province self-owned with a very convoluted policy towards First Nations that only locks land into an unusable limbo state with no clear authority to make decisions. I don’t think Lowan gets it.

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Greens still seem a little extremist these days I really would like a climate-minded but economic-driven party, however I think they need a new leader who has more life experience.

Computational Fluid Dynamics #CFD and 3D design improvements with GPT6 Astra. This is wild for engineering. I never thought we would be here so quickly.

041

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Well I guess if you give Astra a couple days things just reach a whole new level. Here's the Gastown (and soon rest of downtown) Vancouver recreation in Godot. It even recreated the interior for Lee's Donuts. #ChatGPT #GPT6

010

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

Wanted to see what all the hype was about with GPT6 Astra. Created a walkable recreation of Gastown in Vancouver in just over an hour in Godot.

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

Reminds me of the Chernobyl trees. I would check for radiation.

Is this the main flash variant or a distilled version? Are you self hosting?

Was at the outdoor comedy show all evening facing south, unfortunately too many clouds and nothing caught my eye

010

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 29/08/2026

I think there were many more over Surrey, I heard and observed maybe double that?

140

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 29/08/2026

Looks like @ensembleator.bsky.social 's forecast just validated as new cell over Surrey has started throwing bolts ⛈️ #bcstorm

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

Are we talking crazy mesoscale type stuff or just a standard light show?

110

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

According to this map I should move to Alaska

120

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

I think you’re looking for wrought iron patio furniture and sunbrella cushions. It’s going to be a little extra budget but will last longer than civilization if you bring in the cushions in winter. I don’t recommend buying online for stuff line this but instead visit local hardware and patio stores

040

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Yes and looks like traffic is piling up, they keep parking more on the runway

020

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Not sure if you’ve seen this but looks like a full ground stop at YVR I’ve never seen them park planes in the middle of runway like this

241

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Thanks! It’s quieter now so he seems to be happier. I am really curious on the post-storm analysis of this event it seems so unusual.

120

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Listening to the non stop thunder for hours was a new experience. My dog doesn’t scare easily and loves fireworks but this storm sent him crying to his bed, he was very unsure about it! Am I crazy or is this thing winding up for another pass?

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

Somebody from Boston must be crappjng their pants right now sitting in a window seat front row to the show

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

Meanwhile looks like fog is diverting flights bound for Edmonton back to their origin airports. Westjet 300 diverted back to YVR #weather

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

Lightning over Burnaby and the North Shore! Starting to get a good thunder in tri cities @ensembleator.bsky.social

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 08/08/2026

Boeing 777 this was back in 2010 when stuff like this could go unnoticed. Apparently all the electronics went black while the system automatically rebooted itself. I think they still had basic avionics but navigation was affected. It was… interesting… when they announced it to the entire cabin.

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 08/08/2026

This happened to me but mid-air flying over the North Pole. Pilots were flying blind for about 10 minutes 😳

170

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

Yup it’s very close to my house, Conair tankers were here earlier seems like it’s still out of control but thankfully slow growing.

100

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

Why would it fly to Vancouver though when Seattle is nearly equal distance? And the low flyover of Winnipeg?

100

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

Interesting it did a low pass in Winnipeg at YWG I wonder if this is an Open Skies mission? @petervogel.bsky.social

220

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

German Air Force Luftwaffe A319 coming in to YVR. @petervogel.bsky.social have any details on this one? Looks like either a VIP transport or a special mission.

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

Probably worried about drones but I also suspect they want to find a sideyard so they don’t shut down that rail line. Because Russia.

010

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

I think they’re running out of hyperbole to market their product 🙂

020

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

An improvement, but was hoping the fires in the Cariboo would get more precip

100

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Fingers crossed this does some decent fire suppression if it gets far enough inland

010

Justin @justingeographic.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

Did they restart customs staff at Pitt Meadows? I recall it was limited to Boundary Bay for a while.

Is my next summer vacation getaway... Fairbanks Alaska? Funny enough I was there two summers ago 😊
