Seven Engineers Suspended After $2.3M Bridge Includes 90-Degree Turn
Reminds me a bit of the Park Avenue Viaduct in NYC, which has what looks like 90-degree turns when viewed from street level, but apparently the roadway itself has (sharp) curves:

Self hosted maps for (practically) free
Using OpenStreetMap, ProtoMaps, Maputnik and MapLibre to self host custom maps is a really fun tech adventure! These low cost and serverless maps work on the web, react native, android, and iOS. Break free from Google Maps, Apple Maps, and Mapbox!

Interactive Map
The map is based on the Leaflet module, which is entirely open-source and free. It can pull imagery from any source, so I chose OpenStreetMap, since it is also free.

A community-led fork of Organic Maps
I map many trails on osm from personal site surveys and a combination of sat imagery and my gpx files. No way google is doing that because there is no one to steal the data from. It was me, the enthusiast that put it in osm directly. That’s just me and the trails I load tho. Example - Latest was short one at monkeyface falls. https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/34.098058/-116.955639

Ask HN: Should I open source or not?
A long time ago, I was a math T.A. in the university and the main T.A. of my course was blind. He used a screen reader for everything, and wrote LaTeX and had a paper versions of the courser exercises in Braile+LaTeX (IIRC).
> a PDF alternative for the blind
I'm not sure what it means. It's a PDF reader? It's another format that is similar PDF but more screen reader friendly?
> Google Maps/navigation for the blind in my city
Do you know https://www.openstreetmap.org/ The data is open, so it may be useful to build an easier to use client, so you don't have to collect all the info.
> I am concerned about parasitic big corporations taking the code and putting it behind a paywall
Probably AGPL is better for your intentions.
> Not only would I be inviting disorganized, poorly constructed code,
There is no obligation as a maintainer to merge all PR. But remember to be nice.

> Tunnels and bridges have been proposed and in 1880 work started on experimental tunnels in Folkstone that were dug by hand and an early tunnel boring machine.
The extent of this work from 1880 and 1881 is shown on OpenStreetMap[0].
