14:21 <donpdonp> thats the kind of chart id like to see for a given phone being tracked

14:22 <aaronpk> nice

14:22 <aaronpk> where'd that come from?

14:23 <aaronpk> android can report number of sattelites in view, not sure if iPhone can tho

14:26 <donpdonp> it came from my brain and inkscape :)

14:26 <aaronpk> aha!

14:26 <aaronpk> cool

14:27 <donpdonp> yesterday it dawned on me that ac power would be a neat stat along with batt

14:27 <aaronpk> yea. iirc android can report that

14:27 <donpdonp> chart replaced just now with a slightly nicer version

14:27 <donpdonp> notice batt % climbs for the first bit with AC power :)

14:33 <aaronpk> ah yea

14:50 <aaronpk> donpdonp: have you seen this? http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/05/android-cloud-to-device-messaging.html

14:50 <aaronpk> now I kind of want to build a push notification service for myself :)

14:50 <donpdonp> yes, android's push-killer

14:51 <donpdonp> id like to see urban airship's android push setup that was just announced

14:52 <aaronpk> yea true, but I think I want a self-hosted one too

14:52 <aaronpk> wait

14:54 <donpdonp> how zen.

15:04 <donpdonp> chart improved again.

15:06 <donpdonp> zomg check donpark.org/people!

15:07 <donpdonp> samkeen is half way to hawaii

15:07 <aaronpk> ...half way?

15:07 <aaronpk> whoa

15:09 <aaronpk> neat

15:17 <donpdonp> question is, how did the phone have a data connection on the plane?

16:42 <donpdonp> samkeen is shown as being in quebec. wtf?

16:52 <aaronpk> accuracy 1536.0?

16:56 <donpdonp> is that out of the json data?

16:56 <donpdonp> from seattle to quebec is 4.4 million meters

16:56 <donpdonp> so even the error estimate is highly eroneous

16:56 <aaronpk> clearly we need an error estimate of the error estimate

17:10 <aaronpk> donpdonp: now that I've got geoloqi logging json blobs to a text file, it shouldn't be too hard to rig up a separate timer thread to send the contents of that file to the server at some interval, right?

17:11 <donpdonp> right.

17:12 <aaronpk> tho I should probably change it to use some other type of storage besides a file

17:12 <donpdonp> yeah probably

17:12 <donpdonp> im melting at the bar at Tiny's

17:12 <donpdonp> packing up for now...

17:12 <aaronpk> it's warm out
