Working on H3 integration into freestiler, my R/Python vector tiling tool.
The new feature uses @duckdb.org internally to dynamically aggregate points into a multi-layer hexagonal tileset based on some function (summary stats, or your own custom SQL).

I grew up in Oregon without air conditioning, it seemed quite normal at the time, we just pulled out the box fans when it got hot in the summer.
Fascinating to explore the patterns in this new Census data - lots of areas around Oregon / the US where AC prevalence isn't as high as you might expect.
My home Census tract in Corvallis is now at 94.7% with AC (my parents eventually got it too)
