An API to encode and decode coordinates using Geohash

In plain words

Geohash.world is an API tool for developers that encodes and decodes geographic coordinates using the Geohash algorithm. It allows users to convert between standard latitude-longitude coordinates and compact Geohash strings, which are useful for spatial indexing and proximity searches. The service is designed for developers building location-based applications who need reliable coordinate conversion functionality.

  An 'offline' reverse-geocoder API written in Go2020 · ▲14

  I've recently been working with real-time geoJSON data at a rate of 50+ queries per second. SaaS solutions can be prohibitively expensive at this rate, thus, I created go-reverse-geo. Data is pulled from geonames.org and is stored in MongoDB (a requirement of my current project). It is very much a work-in-progress (I wrote it this morning). Hope someone finds it useful. https://paranoia.dev/vivi/go-reverse-geo

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
