Gregory's ServerThere's a bunch of fun replies that I haven't been able to keep up with entirely, but here's another fun postcode : 4825
It's non contiguous and has all these little broke on sections. It also crosses sate borders

@xssfox you’re SO close to being able to score post-codes on how cursed they are. I’ll just leave this here https://til.simonwillison.net/sqlite/sqlite-tg  @xssfox There's also a great article about fallacies concerning people's names https://www.kalzumeus.com/2010/06/17/falsehoods-programmers-believe-about-names/ @xssfox The most common programmer's fallacies I encounter are: - Sentences start with a noun Both break down as soon as you ask people to translate your software to a language unlike English.  Fuck the people who say we shouldn't care about the users in 0872 because there's so few of them (~18k) Many of these users are important and amazing. Many are vulnerable and need support. Entire communities of people.  @xssfox It would make more sense not to take care of US zip code 10118, since nobody lives there. @xssfox The previous post is a joke, 10118 is the Empire State Building in New York City, which indeed has zero pemanent residents, but about 300 businesses, 7000 employees, and more than a billion US dollars of payroll. |
@xssfox who has been gerrymandering the postcodes?!
