18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

The administration got rid of 18F under the cover of night. People who own skyscrapers are afraid of 100 people who make websites. Not because of the latest tech fad, but because we proved the government can be fixed, the government can be made better and the government can work for the people.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

The Internet Archive has to date downloaded 500 terabytes of US government websites, which it crawls at the end of every presidential term. The whole archive is fully searchable. This effort's housed by a donation-funded nonprofit, not a branch of the US government. blog.archive.org/2024/05/08/e...

And so it begins. #GISChat If you're using and rely on Federal Data sources for your work, do you have any alternate sources if the data you rely on is suddenly unavailable? @deepseadawn.bsky.social - will Esri keep Federal data in Living Atlas? www.eenews.net/articles/gro...

I think most of my #GISChat friends have heard of and used colorbrewer2.org tools for their maps - but have any of you checked out mapcolpal.org yet?
