Hype for the Future 123H: The Northern Neck of Virginia
Introduction The Northern Neck of the Commonwealth of Virginia, largely determined by the region of the Tidewater north of the Rappahannock River, is typically a region depicted as comprising of five (5) counties, namely Lancaster, Northumberland, Westmoreland, Richmond (County), and King George. Each county provides a distinctive backdrop into the region, with the Northern Neck at-large attracting a significant number of plantation settlers from the regions around East Anglia in […]https://novatopflex.wordpress.com/2026/03/03/hype-for-the-future-123h-the-northern-neck-of-virginia/

Weekly output: Google’s live lane guidance, Candela’s battery-electric hydrofoils
LISBON–I traveled here to speak at my ninth Web Summit conference in Europe via another EU city that I’m quite fond of, Barcelona. The Mozilla Foundation had the good taste to host its Mozilla Festival there and then provide me with a travel stipend to cover the event, so of course I was willing to start my Web Summit trip a few days early. Even though that left me little time at home between working a 15-hour day Tuesday as an election officer and then heading to Dulles Airport Wednesday afternoon.
11/4/2025: Safe to Go? Google Maps Adds ‘Live Lane Guidance’ for Polestar 4 EVs, PCMag
PCMag had two stories under my byline this week, and this was the one I actually wrote this week to cover an update to the built-in Google navigation in one of Polestar’s battery-electric vehicles. The other involved my editor updating a post I wrote in May about President Trump withdrawing his nomination of private astronaut and payments billionaire Jared Isaacman as NASA administrator, the new plot twist being that Trump had changed his mind again and had re-nominated Isaacman. I realize how confusing that last sentence can look.
11/7/2025: This battery-electric hydrofoil could supercharge a ferry transformation, Fast Company
Two years after getting an introduction to the Swedish startup Candela’s battery-electric hydrofoil sport boats on the San Francisco Bay, I enjoyed an update of the experience on waters I know much better–the Potomac and the Anacostia. With a longer word count than I had for that PCMag report in the summer of 2023, I went into much more detail about Candela’s ambitions to get into the passenger-ferry business, its likely competition in that market, and potential obstacles to electrifying ferries.

“A CNN Reporter requested data to portray the depth of the Potomac River near the site of the tragic plane and helicopter crash. The Digital Elevation Model Bathymetry (DEM) Team responded with information on how to use NCEI’s high-resolution Continuously Updated Digital Elevation Models (CUDEMs) to generate a map of the Potomac River and provided an example map…”

Really solid video on the DC crash. Seems to indicate the military helicopter had exceeded it's flight ceiling.

What the … ?
1️⃣ #DoD considers #Breitbart et al. more important than #NYTimes
2️⃣ Journalists are forced to regularly check #Twitter if they want to receive official #NTSB information on the #Potomac crash. No more email option

Remembering the figure skaters who died in the plane crash over the #Potomac. It's not the first time that a generation of American figure skaters and coaches were lost.
