Last weekend, I enjoyed a solar-powered boat ride across "Pantano del Tranco" (Tranco Reservoir) in Cazorla, Jaén Spain 😍🌲⛰️🌊🧘‍♂️ posts.rauljimenez.info/photos/2026/… #indieweb

A photo of me posing: a middle-aged man with graying hair and a short beard smiles warmly in the foreground, looking directly at the camera. He is wearing a pale yellow T-shirt. He is on a solar-powered boat on the Tranco Reservoir in Jaén. Behind him, a vast expanse of deep turquoise water stretches into the distance, with gentle ripples on the surface. On both sides of the water, densely forested hills covered in green pine trees rise up, and in the background, taller, rocky mountains are visible. The sky is bright blue with scattered thin white clouds. The lighting is bright, natural sunlight. The photo is taken from a medium-shot perspective, at eye level.

Recently, I've been using Google's AI search in a new way that I think is worth sharing. Sometimes I have a hard time remembering who said something on social media. The search tools provided by social media platforms are pretty limited, and I'm finding Google very helpful. Here's a screenshot

And if you're curious about why a particular candidate was matched, combine it with "returnMatchNarrative". It exposes detailed information about how every component of the input address was interpreted, which is incredibly useful for debugging or building better geocoding workflows.

Raul Jimenez Ortega @rauljimenez.info · 10/07/2026

Have you ever wondered what location a geocoder returns when you search for a street number that doesn't actually exist, but falls within a known address range? At some point, the system has to estimate where that address would be.
