Under the hood, we’re using Estuary for data streaming and Tinybird to power super fast analytical queries. The charts are made in Tremor and the map is D3.
Is there a law mandating realtime reporting, or something, or are there just limited number of POS providers and they all have realtime API(s)?
I bet the dashboard doesn't have Johnny from my street corner's transaction...
FYI, the time displays are a bit off. The time box seems correct. The time slider is off. The animation goes beyond the last time. Up to you if the slider stops in the middle, or goes to 100% which becomes larger as the day progresses
Clearly not partaking in 420 ;-)
As someone who came of age drinking with my friends and who avoided weed for law and job reasons, it’s hard for me to wrap my emotional thinking around the concept. It’s still deep in my brain that weed is a bad thing people should avoid. And yet, intellectually I know I'd be better off pouring the liquor in the pantry down the drain and switching to marijuana.
On the other hand, giving the population an alternative to alcohol is a good thing, especially when it can have positive medicinal effects in some situations.
I would personally limit the number of purchases like we do Pseudoephedrine, and if you need more, get a medical prescription. We'll probably realize this in about 20 years, like we are finally realizing about social media. Social media needs to be 18+, like porn sites. Took us 20 years, but many places are doing it. We never have a serious discussion about anything when we roll it out. Alcohol on every corner and supermarket was one of the stupidest things we ever did.
Yeah, weed is probably bad for you, given enough of it. It turns out there's no safe dose of alcohol, and no one’s figured out where weed’s harm eventually kicks in, so why worry about its societal effects which we know are vastly lesser?
I drink beer and don't use weed. All of the above is from someone who couldn’t care less about marijuana for themselves.
I'm wondering who, angry and scared about the state of society, is checking out, rather than speaking out.
