Cross account access to an S3 bucket is a well documented setup. Most guides
will cover creating and applying a bucket policy to an S3 bucket and then

Creating rail maps with Cytoscape.js
Since I've begun blogging semi-regularly I've learned that having visuals

Create rail timetable graphs in R
Timetable or schedule graphs visualise railway traffic on a route during a set
time. Typically when these graphs are shared online they look like they've
been created using jTrainGraph although I find it very difficult to get

I see the work at Amstel station is well underway. I noticed ProRail already
positioning equipment by the station two weeks ago in preparation.
With no NS trains, buses run to Muiderpoort every 10 minutes, the metro

@hbuchel Coincidentally also went to the office only to be greeted by a fire
alarm. After a while of waiting downstairs we were ushered back up just in
time for a second alarm to go off.
That was my cue to head home. :revblobfoxangrylaugh:
