Several years ago, a street medic described a system like this and wanted to know if it could be built.
https://hackaday.com/2022/09/08/the-tak-ecosystem-military-coordination-goes-open-source/
Back then there was just no way to make it happen. Hardware was too expensive. We couldn't really ever get it cheap enough, per medic, to deploy. Best I could put together was a bunch of burner phones.
But now it's starting to really make sense. LoRa is cheap, and possibly cheaper in bulk. And it wouldn't be necessary to build everything since ATAK-CIV exists and has several open source implementations. It can even tie in to drones (which are illegal to bring to protests in at least a few states).
This has a lot of potential applications for street medic coordination, protest marshal coordination, and for airsoft teams...

An asteroid that NASA used for target practice a few years ago
was nudged into a slightly different route around the sun,
findings that could help divert a future incoming killer space rock, scientists reported Friday.
It’s the first time that a celestial body’s orbit around the sun was deliberately changed.

Spacecraft's impact changed asteroid's orbit around the sun in a save-the-Earth test, study finds
A new study has found that an asteroid NASA used for target practice a few years ago was nudged into a slightly different route around the sun. It's the first time that a celestial body's solar orbit was deliberately changed. Scientists reported Friday that the 2022 impact by the Dart spacecraft not only trimmed the asteroid's orbit around its bigger space rock companion, but also around the sun. Researchers say their findings could help divert an incoming killer space rock given enough advance…

Finished Gotham Knights (2022) on Sunday.
It does add to my continued sense that Batman is about continually dealing with the past and present failures of long-lived social and governmental organisations, and as such - while rooted in America - also feels culturally British.

The Italian tech holding company Bending Spoons, has developed a reputation for buying tech companies past their peak and aggressively cutting costs.

Layoffs followed many of those deals. In September 2024, just months after being acquired by Bending Spoons, WeTransfer laid off 75% of its staff.

The Kentucky Supreme Court ruled Thursday that a measure establishing
public funding for charter schools is unconstitutional,
affirming that state funds “are for common schools and for nothing else.”
The 2022 measure was enacted by the state’s Republican-dominated legislature over Democrat Gov. Andy Beshear’s veto.
It was struck down the next year by a lower court.
The state’s high court ruled the “Constitution as it stands is clear that it does not permit funnel…

Kentucky Supreme Court rules charter school funding unconstitutional
The Kentucky Supreme Court has ruled that a measure establishing public funding for charter schools is unconstitutional. The high court ruled that state funds “are for common schools and for nothing else.” The Republican-backed measure was struck down by a lower court in 2023. In an opinion released Thursday, the Kentucky Supreme Court wrote that the Constitution "does not permit funneling public education funds outside the common public school system.” In 2024, Kentucky voters rejected a…
