Есть такой онлайн-сервис SunCalc. Он использует астрономические формулы, чтобы показывать положение солнца в заданных координатах и заданное время. Я его применяю, например, чтобы выбрать время и место съёмки. Так вот, там в сервисе взяты Google-карты, и уже несколько лет на каждом тайле отображается ватермарка "For development purposes only", а при старте сервиса выскакивает ошибка о некорректной загрузке карт. Это произошло из-за того, что Гугл в какой-то момент поменял карты, не сохранив обратную совместимость, и сделал платной ту квоту, которая прежде была бесплатной, увеличив стоимость использования в 14 раз! В SunCalc, как и во множестве подобных проектов на базе API крупных компаний, нет рекламы и монетизации. А код сервиса доступен в Open Source. Это просто удобная онлайн-тулза от энтузиаста. Он на ней не зарабатывает, даже наоборот: тратит собственные деньги на оплату серверов, просто чтобы привнести в мир некоторое универсальное общественное благо. Формально, конечно, Гугл, как владелец своих карт, имеет полное право раздавать доступы к этим картам на любых условиях. Но фактически нет никакой хорошей и рациональной причины, по которой бесплатный некоммерческий общественно-полезный сервис не должен иметь возможность применять эти карты. Платить автор сервиса точно не будет: нет никакого смысла выкидывать сотни долларов в месяц просто так ради жадности Гугла. Получается, что пользователи на ровном месте испытывают неудобства. Хоть и небольшие, но всё-таки — работать с чистой картой без надписей и затемнения гораздо приятнее. Вот вам ещё про вред капитализма и монополий. Не то, чтоб я видел какую-то другую более работающую экономическую систему (социализм с его плановой экономикой во много раз хуже и нежизнеспособнее, разумеется). Но просто каждый раз раздражают такие ситуации, когда на них наталкиваюсь. Какого хера вообще? #web#dev

Question ppl ask me often How can I improve my writing skills? Here is my reply Improving your writing skills is a valuable endeavor that can benefit you in many areas of life. Here are several strategies you can use to become a better writer: 1. Read Regularly: - Diverse Materials: Read a variety of genres, including fiction, non-fiction, journalism, and academic papers. This exposes you to different styles and vocabularies. - Analyzing: Pay attention to how authors construct sentences, develop ideas, and build arguments. Reflect on what makes their writing effective or ineffective. 2. Write Daily: - Journaling: Keep a daily journal to practice writing regularly. It doesn’t have to be formal; the goal is to make writing a habit. - Prompts: Use writing prompts to challenge yourself and spark creativity. Websites and books often offer daily prompts. 3. Learn the Basics: - Grammar and Syntax: Brush up on grammar and syntax rules. Resources like "The Elements of Style" by Strunk and White can be very useful. - Vocabulary: Expand your vocabulary through reading and using tools like a thesaurus. 4. Seek Feedback: - Peer Review: Share your writing with friends, colleagues, or writing groups to get constructive feedback. - Professional Feedback: Consider hiring a writing coach or taking a writing course. 5. Revise and Edit: - Multiple Drafts: Don’t be afraid to write multiple drafts. Revision is a crucial part of the writing process. - Editing: Learn to edit your work critically. Look for clarity, coherence, conciseness, and correctness. 6. Study Writing Techniques: - Workshops and Courses: Enroll in writing workshops or online courses. Websites like Coursera, Udemy, and edX offer courses on various aspects of writing. - Books on Writing: Read books about writing, such as "On Writing" by Stephen King or "Bird by Bird" by Anne Lamott. 7. Practice Different Styles: - Genres: Experiment with different genres (e.g., poetry, essays, short stories, technical writing) to find your strengths and preferences. - Perspectives: Write from different perspectives and in various voices to develop versatility. 8. Use Writing Tools: - Software: Use tools like Grammarly, Hemingway Editor, or ProWritingAid to help with grammar and style. - Outlining: Use outlining tools to organize your thoughts before you start writing. 9. Stay Motivated: - Set Goals: Set specific, achievable writing goals (e.g., write 500 words a day, complete a short story in a month). - Celebrate Progress: Acknowledge and celebrate your progress to stay motivated. 10. Read Aloud: - Hearing Your Writing: Reading your work aloud can help you catch errors and awkward phrasing that you might miss when reading silently. Improving your writing skills is a continuous process, and persistence is key. By integrating these strategies into your routine, you'll gradually become a more confident and effective writer. #sirjimmy#teamjimmy#writingskills#englishmadeeasy#truewisdom
