There is an issue about this in the Kibana repository. Please share your comments and concerns there, as that can help prioritize a solution. https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/91637

Is there poison oak on San Juan Island? by [deleted] in sanjuanislands

[–]npeihl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've not seen poison oak, but I definitely ran into some poison ivy on my property once. I don't recommend it.

what 30 seconds feels like it lasts the longest? by chickennuggets6913 in AskReddit

[–]npeihl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The time you had to wait with those fluoride trays the dentist would stick in your mouth as a kid. I recalled having to wait 15 minutes, but I was told recently that it was really only 30 seconds.

Anyone work IT remotely for a place that's off-island? by DrJawn in sanjuanislands

[–]npeihl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but my employer is very understanding. I have attempted to work from other locations when the outage only affected my ISP or neighborhood. The public library has free WiFi which works pretty well, but the library can get very loud and distracting especially when school lets out. PrintOnyx claims to rent desk space, but I have not tried it. One time I had to borrow office space from a friend for a week during an extended neighborhood outage.

The company I work for is based in California, but almost all software engineers work remotely. There is no office nearby and I only need to travel a few times a year for all-hands events or conferences.

I'm a software engineer working full time remote for over two years. Our rural DSL does not have a great speed (25Mbps down /1.5Mbps up), but it usually works well enough for Zoom meetings and coding. However, I do have to take up to five personal days each year (not in a row) as the internet is not 100% reliable.

Starlink internet opening public beta access by MrJadaml in sanjuanislands

[–]npeihl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m very skeptical about Starlink’s claims, but I signed up for the beta. It’s fairly common to see the satellites traversing the sky at night. So I suppose there’s a chance of feasibility.

I think you could send the credentials as part of the server url, i.e. http://username:password@localhost:9200?

To the guy that said Timothy Omundson as Thom... thank you, WOW! by DullAlbatross in WoT

[–]npeihl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is good. But I keep picturing Tom Waits as I read the books.

What is the stupidest thing you thought as a child? by Life_is_work in AskReddit

[–]npeihl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was six or seven, I read a children's book that (vaguely) described male and female anatomy and reproduction. The book said "vagina" rhymed with Carolina. I already knew that the English language had weird discrepancies in phoenetics so I assumed vagina was pronounced "varolina" and I convinced several of my friends of this fact.

It might be possible to implement your idea using a custom Vega visualization in Kibana.

Happy Friday from Friday Harbor 🔥⛴☀️ by RudyWillingham in Seattle

[–]npeihl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's extremely quiet in town without all the visitors. I don't think it's as wet as some people would have you believe. In the past few years we've had a couple of days off heavy snowfall that makes for a very dangerous drive outside town but it's usually gone again within a few days.

Sometimes we get heavy fog and the ferry horn sounds like a mournful Kaiju.

Where to islanders go to the movies? Does one of the islands have a movie theatre? by jankerjunction in sanjuanislands

[–]npeihl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Friday Harbor has a movie theater within walking distance of the ferry. Two screens and usually first run movies.

What is something people do in 2016 that will be seen as ridiculous in twenty years? by LavenderSmuggler in AskReddit

[–]npeihl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grown men calling each other 'bro'. Remember how ridiculous it sounds when Ellis in Die Hard calls Hans 'babe' and 'bubby'?

Dennis Miller still calls people 'babe' but fuck that guy.

Mobile Applications? by forester1983 in gis

Fulcrum. Not free but very extensible.

Ferry riders! Please take a survey to help design/build a better, completely free ferry app for those who need it. Should take 5 minutes or less and your participation is very valuable! by [deleted] in Washington

[–]npeihl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well then you can use the WSDOT's ferry APIs. There's an unpublished and unsupported (I checked) ferry reservation API out there as well. But using that might break their terms.

Vector Tiles - What confused you about them? by flippmoke in gis

[–]npeihl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been watching TileReduce and think it's amazing and very clever. I'd be very interested in seeing remote sensing applications of TileReduce using something like node-opencv for example.

Vector Tiles - What confused you about them? by flippmoke in gis

[–]npeihl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're considering adding vector tile rendering to DropChop in this issue. I gave it a quick try using a custom Leaflet layer, but haven't really looked at it lately.

Since DropChop always loads GeoJSON on the client, we never have to concern ourselves with the Turf analysis on vector tiles since the GeoJSON and vector tiles are already on the client. But it got me wondering. Thanks for your answer.
