Love it.

I've been willing to learn more about programming with location/map data so definitely checking this out.

Are you looking for contributions or help on anything?
I think I might at least look at providing a Dutch translation for the front-end if you're accepting PRs.

To plan, organize or review routes.

This seems more like Garmin Basecamp, it's not supposed to be used on the routes themselves I'm guessing.

Windows gets in the news almost daily with new ways they made their product worse. Of course people are shitting on them, it's still as relevant as years ago.

What you're giving as examples are legitimate uses for the data.

If I write and sell a new book that's just Harry Potter with names and terms switched around, I'll definitely get in trouble.

The problem is that the data CAN be used for stuff that violates copyright. And because of the nature of AI, it's not even always clear to the user.

AI can basically throw out a Harry Potter clone without you knowing because it's trained on that data, and that's a huge problem.

There's doubt about that 1913 temperature being reliable.
More likely the 130°F in July 2021 is the actual record.

Also, what's remarkable is not the record high temperature, but the fact that these temperatures are consistently returning each year.

Not even Death Valley is spared by global warming.

I did a few searches but had terrible results.

Searching for "Tokyo", I got a summary about some Indonesian food chain. I had to scroll down quite a bit to get info about the city.

It looks interesting, but seems far from ready.
