Time for a Bitcoin moment, but for governments.


DAOs?


DAO based maybe, yes.


It seemed like a useful tool based on their examples, but they removed them due to server issues.


Same thing happened to me, but I discovered you can just click the “Replay” button in the examples. Looks like it’s still in closed beta though.


Examples? I just see a blank page with a text input asking me "What can I help with?" [sic]


Thanks for checking out! We're experiencing some unexpected server issues right now, which is why you're seeing a blank page. Our team is working hard to fix it, and things should be back to normal soon. Please check back in a little while—we really appreciate your patience and interest!


We were experimenting with saving states in URLs with https://libmap.org. Sharing these URLs on mastodon.social would add the post to the map.


Nice, thanks for sharing! What would be the best way (and data source) to observe the number of yurts over time?


> What am I doing wrong?

Wrong tool..


Yes, relay is possible, but I'm not sure if a shorter window solves the issue - you could stream your cam feed.

Another option would be to limit the number of validations in the time window or to introduce a 'cool down' time - the next validation attempt has to wait 3 cycles to be valid. Relay would still be possible, but when the person on spot wants to validate for themself, relay could be more of a hassle. Last but not least, the browser could ask for the the location and calculate the distance to the device (location can be spoofed ..).


A stream is generally of lower quality than a photo which should make it significantly more difficult to get a good scan of a QR code from a stream --- particularly if the code is changing every few seconds. I'd probably recommend showing a code for 3 seconds then a black screen for 3 seconds then repeat with a different code.

Cameras need to focus on both ends and the stream has to be scaled to fit the available display parameters. Could easily turn into an exercise in frustration.


Altogether costs: USD 15-20. Whereas the display from op costs CHF 1,449 (USD 1,700).


Are there any dataset that monitor average NO2 pollution of cities over time? CAMS released one[1], but it's not updated any more.

Hexagons could be a new kind of political entity of the future, where, for example, rewards for climate progress (measured by satellites) could be put into practice.
