PPG.report now works globally
Thank you u/aeharding !!! I use ppg.report regularly -- you can Sponsor/support Alexander and his hard work here: https://github.com/sponsors/aeharding

Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
https://ppg.report
Shows a nicely formatted weather report for flying my paramotor, pulling data in from many different sources :-)

Flying in Restricted Airspace - You can do it! [US]
Why use it when you have Windy.com and Windy.app and ppg.report and aviationweather.gov ?

Best weather app?
Yep I like ppg.report for quick no fluff wind speeds at different altitudes. When I just want to basics standing in the field or driving to an LZ, Windy is for large screen analyses at home days beforehand.

Can we share the apps we all using for Paramotoring?
PPG.report (web) - I have it as an Icon on my iPhone for quick access to the NOAA GFS model data, which gives you 24 hours of wind predictions at different altitudes. It is not always accurate, but it IS predicting a solid 20 km square. I prefer this now over RyanCarlton.com because there are weather forecasts and airspace restrictions built in. It's very pretty too! I think Alexander Harding lurks in here. You can see and view the code for the website too. You can donate to Alexander's work on Github as well.

So excited for colors outside of sRGB! I make good use of display-p3, currently only supported in Safari, on https://ppg.report.

Ask HN: What not-profit-seeking project are you tinkering with this week?
https://ppg.report
Flying my paramotor is one of the things I love to do in my free time, and this project (weather report for paramotor pilots) is the result of that!
Also open source https://github.com/aeharding/ppg.report

Dropping the Windy App...Need another app to check for conditions
I like ppg.report, but I always thought it was just a re-skined version of wind.ppgzone.com
-
How much updraft velocity is too much for a newer pilot?
https://ppg.report/ and RyanCarlton.com show you CAPE and CIN.

Where can I get the current local aviation forecast in my area? Especially cloud base? Thanks.
It only works if your location is within 30 miles of an airport. In which case you will see a little widget in the header, as seen here: https://github.com/aeharding/ppg.report/releases/tag/v2.1.0

C++20 Coroutines and Io_uring
> Would you consider adding a kqueue implementation?
Can't do, I don't have Apple or BSD anywhere. But if code for it were submitted to me, I would gladly merge it (and try to keep the CI happy).
The MPD version of the event loop is portable and runs on macOS/BSD/Windows, but no kqueue, only poll() (and select() on Windows). This old-school API has its scalability problems, of course, but that matters not so much for MPD.
The event loop can already do Coroutines on all supported targets; here's another open source project where I use this library: https://github.com/XCSoar/XCSoar/tree/master/src/event/ - it's a flight computer (yes, for real airplanes) which also runs on Windows and macOS and iOS, and runs libcurl (and other stuff) as coroutine.
If you want to use my library and need help with integrating it or with adding kqueue support, get in touch with me.

(Help) XCSOAR issue on Samsung Galaxy
It's probably because of some changes to the way application data in Android works now. There is an issue written up on the XCSoar GitHub here that describes the problem.
