I made NextGP so I’d always have the #f1 schedule and standings on my Home Screen. There’s still so much I want to do, but it’s awesome to have the thing that I wanted out in the world.

Had an amazing trip to Cupertino for #wwdc and the @revenuecat.com Bashcade.

Good to be home though and can’t wait to dig into more of the sessions.

Watching The Empire Strikes Back, at Sundance no less, with the @revenuecat.com team. Legit.

I just had a 4 minute conversation with Siri wherein I was trying to pause a timer and she literally was stuck in an infinite loop. I hade the wherewithal to start recording the last minute. @gruber.foo stay for the end to hear what kids think of Siri.

Something rotten indeed.

You’re welcome.

I really need to take a math class for 40+.

I’ve been pretty busy this week, but I was able to implement inserting a point into an existing polygon.

Calculating the midpoint between two geographic coordinates is surprisingly easy, so long as the points don't cross the equator or the meridian.

Added a bunch of features between last night and this morning:
- Rename layers
- View all points in any feature
- Create new features from selected segments
- Loads of UI improvements.

Next up: better drawing and editing tools.

This GeoJSON editor is coming together nicely. And I must say, building a tool that I need for another thing I'd like to build feels pretty great.

Never in my wildest dreams did I thinkI'd ever write a native GeoJSON editor...and yet? Here I am.

Claude is doing the heavy lifting.
