I couldn't believe this didn't exist yet. So I built it myself.   Electricity grid capacity is an issue throughout the whole EU, but there issn't a clear overview.

I built an overview of grid capacity maps for the whole EU. And made it into an interactive tool.   I'm not going to lie. It took more time than I want to admit. But it wa…

Under-Engineered Responsive Tables
I have written a bunch about responsive tables. Maybe too much. I keep trying to give developers the information they need to make informed decisions — ARIA attributes, screen reader & browser pairing results, bugs, and so on. I have spread things out over years of posts. I have filed…

Optimizing Health Coverage in Ethiopia: A Learning-augmented Approach and Persistent Proportionality Under an Online Budget
As part of nationwide efforts aligned with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 3 on Universal Health Coverage, Ethiopia's Ministry of Health is strengthening health posts to expand access to essential healthcare services. However, only a fraction of this health system strengthening effort can be implemented each year due to limited budgets and other competing priorities, thus the need for an optimization framework to guide prioritization across the regions of Ethiopia.
