Windy actually has the 40km model for the US (and the 10km when looking at Europe). Not sure how much better the 10km model is.

Jacob Wobbrock’s comments on what’s makes UIST (after his 1$ recognizer talk) are great. I think we should aim more for easy/simple also at VIS etc.

You can add alt texts to figures in #LaTeX with `alt={...}`.
The alt texts won't necessarily appear in the generated PDF until new versions of LaTeX but let's start with this good practice now.
