#restonva — Public Fediverse posts

Stopped by Petsmart Reston for aquarium supplies (j/k, it’s always cat food) and see the cat adoption center is housing Hurricane Helene refugees. If Figaro hadn’t already locked in his spot with us, Jesse here might’ve had a shot at joining the clowder. If anyone’s thinking about adopting a cat, now’s the time to find one in need.

I am on the job market. I've 20+ years as an IC, 8 years as a tech lead in #govtech

I'm best at python, AWS, backend work, but I've done it all & supervised people who do it better than me. Open to both lead and IC roles. Can still do Microsoft-stack work (dotnet, etc). Heck, I'll learn z/OS if will help the mission.

They finally did it! A bridge over the part of the road where people were expected to just walk into oncoming highway traffic like we were filming Bowfinger or something

My first time participating in the #30DayMapChallenge. Using this time to learn to create new styles and viz based on John Nelson's map hacks for ArcPro. I’m also working on creating more meaningful ALT text for accessibility. Happy Mapping all!

Okay, you need to be 230 feet above sea level to avoid the oceans post-polarcap melt.

https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/how-would-sea-level-change-if-all-glaciers-melted#:~:text=There%20is%20still%20some%20uncertainty,Science%20School%3A%20Glaciers%20and%20Icecaps

#RestonVA - 361 feet now, future: 131 feet
#HerndonVA - Also, 361/131
#DC - 0-400 feet. So still need a topo map to see the new coastline
Dulles 313ft now, future 83 feet

Not clear what is a safe buffer for being above the coastline.

My feed only has a whiff of place because it is *IMPOSSIBLE* to find accounts by account holders city. So I'm going to experiment with following #herndonva #restonva #fairfaxva #dmv (which is sometimes about department of motor vehicles), but not #nova because that is all over the place. On twitter my accounts generally felt like a place in the real world.

Quite the ratio
