🚄 Where can you go by train in Europe - 8h edition! I made an update to chronotrains.com, with configurable travel times from 1-8h, and more frequent data updates.

.@thsottiaux frustrating codex behavior: - click "new chat" within a project (📝 ) - type question, forget to click "work" - codex realizes it's a work question - continues in Work but outside the project - context, permissions, etc. are not scoped to the project.

How far can you travel by train in 8h? An isochrone map shows you where you can go by rail from any station in Europe.

A few recent updates to Chronotrains: - much cleaner isochrones design, i'm so happy about this one! - see destinations reachable in up to 12h - revamped the navigation controls - some data upgrades, including better suggestions. Tiny details compound :)

oh yes let's build an open database of 3d landmarks, put those tokens to good use!

experimenting with 3d landmark models. could this work as a open, crowdsourced database? would ya'll be interested in something like that?

I'm trying the same. Not completely off mapbox for directions, traffic, search, but at least the base map and style are on protomaps+maplibre: benmaps.fr
Benmaps — Maps and directions

Benmaps — Maps and directions

Search places and plan driving, cycling, and walking routes with Benmaps.

after considering mapbox's pricing, priorities, and history of anti-union activity, we've decided to move parchment's first-class rendering engine to @maplibre. we're developing a beautiful, open source map style that anyone can use, for free, forever

Clair, the beautiful @protomaps basemap, has a dark mode as well - a lot of cartographic care went into this, feeling pretty happy about it!

more 3d modelling with opus and sonnet. Check out the Protomaps basemap style + landmarks available at clair.benmaps.fr/demo?3d=1&l…

Just like we used to have a button for "temperature".

I'm getting increasingly tired of thinking about reasoning effort levels. In the near future, models will reason as much or as little as needed, and we'll feel silly for exposing 5+ options in a dropdown.

I've updated benmaps.fr for the first time in probably 10 years? - Protomaps basemap, with a new cartography called Clair: clair.benmaps.fr/ - 3d landmarks, very much WIP (currently just Paris) but it's a start! - Still free with no tracking/ads/cookies.

Can't believe 1.3k people think this is a good use case when local models would do the same in <2ms e.g. Desert Ant's Emo.

.@tibo frustrating thing on the ChatGPT/Codex app: - click new chat within a project - type long prompt - hit send, forgot you didn't switch to Codex mode before sending - click "Continue in codex" - thread goes to Codex NOT in the project (incl. folder permissions, etc).

Second feedback: on MacOS, the Pet uses the same keyboard shortcut as Raycast. Annoying! Given the recent feedback around removing the pet feature, could you at least change the shortcut (or detect if it's bound in another app?)
