Behind the Design: Slopes

Herbert made good on his thought โ€”ย and ten years of ski runs and late-night meals later, Slopes won an Apple Design Award for its remarkably accurate and comprehensive digital diary of your skiing day.

Curtis was one of our early users of the Mapbox mobile SDK. It’s great to see his passion come this far.

SB116 Programmers Calculator

My Texas Instruments TI Programmer calculator is an excellent tool when working in 6502 assembly and other retro experiments. However going on 45 years old now the buttons are increasingly unreliable and with no good fix for the problem I took this as an opportunity to design the SB116 as a replacement that better fit my own needs.

Meridian

latl.ong

Instead of another centralized service, Meridian is an open source project that can be hosted for app-specific purposes. Setup will take an export from OpenStreetMap and extract places from it, loading them into a local database. It could be hosted as a standalone service or plugged into existing platforms like Micro.blog.

Really excited about this. I’ll be watching and testing it out.
