THIS GUY VIBE CODED A RUNNING APP WITH CLAUDE CODE IN A WEEKEND THAT TURNS YOUR CITY INTO A BATTLEFIELD he wanted a reason to go outside so he built an app where you claim real territory on a map just by running through it every street you run on becomes yours. your neighborhood turns into your turf, but other runners can take it from you by running the same streets imagine runners waking up at 4am just to claim their blocks before anyone else does the territory mechanic is what makes this different from every other running tracker because it gives you a reason to care about your next run, not just the one you just finished if this idea is executed and marketed correctly it'll blow up on the app store most fitness apps try to motivate you with stats and streaks, but this one actually motivates you with competition over real streets in your actual city vibe coded in a weekend by a guy who doesn't even know how to code

Modest Tree@modesttree·
🚢 MAJOR MILESTONE 🚢 Proud to announce that Modest Tree has been awarded a $32M contract by Fleetway Inc. to deliver immersive, design-derived training systems for the Royal Canadian Navy's River-class Destroyers. Sailors will train on ship systems well before commissioning, accelerating readiness, reducing introduction-to-service risk, and strengthening Canada’s sovereign naval capability. This work strengthens Canada's defence industrial base while creating high-value tech jobs right here in Nova Scotia. “As Canada builds its future fleet, we are building the training advantage alongside it,” said Emily Smits CPA,CMA, PMP, CEO of Modest Tree. “We are transforming engineering design into operational readiness while creating high-value technology jobs here in Nova Scotia.” #DefenceTech #NavalTraining #CanadianDefence #Innovation loom.ly/H_4LJuI

Halifax Fire News
Halifax Fire News@HRMFireNews·
Good morning all: Effective immediately, I have decided to take a break from the day to day operations of HRMFireNews. For most of a decade now, the operations of this fire news outlet have been an all-consuming every day commitment. One cannot do such things forever. Despite the occasional rant/troll/dust up, this has been a tremendously positive experience. That said, quite frankly, I am tired out. The time required to do this correctly, in the way I want, is substantial. It is an every day thing, and it times, it completely takes over life. To operate that way has been a choice of mine and a fulfilling one, but I’ve also found myself looking ahead and somewhat dreading continuing to be glued to my keyboard. This is new and has caused me to re-evaluate. Half-assing it isn’t an appealing option. I’ve always felt I would only do this as long as I could give 100% commitment. While many things have changed for the better and I feel this project has accomplished lots, I am fatigued. I can’t tackle advocating on certain issues with the same enthusiasm I used to and while keeping the public informed during emergencies is a privilege, like I said, it’s hard to maintain that pace forever as a hobby. I've basically been giving the fire gods a free claim on all my spare time for most of a decade, which is tough to maintain. I will be honest, I do not know if this is a temporary or permanent break. Since starting the page, I have not spent any serious amount of time away from the page, so this will be new. I’m going to simply put things on hold for now and give thought to next steps. To the members who are pushing for positive change: keep pushing. HRFE has an amazing number of incredibly capable, talented, and knowledgeable people who have made things better and will continue to. Much change is needed but the public is in good hands. I need some time to think about what, if anything, I want to do next, and in order to do that, I need to get away from all of this. To head off any questions that may follow, I should note there is nothing personally wrong. Also, nobody has forced or pushed me into doing this in any way, shape, or form. I simply have decided to think about the future. To be honest, I’ve been thinking about doing this for a while but given the Tantallon Fire and the floods that followed last year I felt a responsibility to try to keep people informed through the full unfolding of those events from end to end, including the PIA. I appreciate everybody’s tremendous support, including the public who follow and the many members who provide information/insight etc. Thank you. There are too many people to thank individually, but seriously, thank you. In other news, I'm really, really, really looking forward to going hours or weeks or days or months without addressing "what's going on near so and so" or the latest problem. After today, I will not be posting, responding to DMs, or writing the Sunday update during this hiatus. I will make a further announcement later on once I’ve finished reflecting on the future of the page. Thank you all and enjoy your long weekends.

@allenholub Coming from a company that has built its own chat & calling app, we have had to shift it to internal use and embed it in our other softwares. Major companies firewalls block it from being used for sales purposes. Internally, it’s a life saver - and super simple.

Excited to be returning to Ottawa for @CadsiCanada’s #CANSEC2024. It’s sure to be a fruitful week, it’s not often that the defence and security industries of Canada are gathered under one roof… one giant roof. Looking forward to seeing everyone there!
Modest Tree@modesttree

Next week we will be at #CANSEC2024. If you're taking part, connect with the Modest Tree team to discuss how we are modernizing maintenance. Team members at #CANSEC include Emily Smits, Sam Wood, Wayne Peddle and Craig Baines. #ModestTree #DefenceIndustry #TechCompanion

@sam_wood It’ll be totally solved. It’s a surprisingly very complex feature. Switching to a more geo-specific db, utilizing core data better, and some other things make it so much improved

Our fog of world v2 should be live in the next day, pending Apple review. It’s a truly insane improvement.

@whittyphoto @TheFwordNB I don’t recall the name of the truck, but if I remember correctly, the truck/ modified RV was on the west side of the parking lot closer to brewbakers.
