curious to know how you guys store and process the data and make meaningful inferences out of the data collected. Redshift? BigQuery? Datazip?


Internally yes we use a data warehouse to store the raw observations. We go through a similar process to traditional NWP to produce forecasts except with a few AI steps in between. Unfortunately, the standard currently is to store these as large multi-dimensional data files like grib2/netCDF/zarr.

In case you’re curious, here’s where NOAA stores all their GFS related forecasts: https://registry.opendata.aws/noaa-gfs-bdp-pds/


this needs to be in some news articles, if anyone here knows or works for any publication, please quote this after doing your due research


I love 'web-desktops' so made a comprehensive github repo listing 171 such webDesktops that people made. AaronOS is a part of it wit proper attribution to original creator.

Please have a look here, you will love it : https://github.com/zriyans/awesome-OS


Novice/young programmers seem to love making OS mockups as a first exercise. This phenomenon even predates web apps: I remember an entire scene consisting of MS-DOS GUIs made with QuickBasic. Hundreds of them - many clones of Windows 95 or Mac OS. There's a site that hosts a bunch of them still: http://qbasicgui.datacomponents.net/


I remember someone making one for an MS-DOS text mode game creation system called MegaZeux. They called it Airborne OS. It was spawned by the enthusiasm around Windows 95/98 at the time, though the result is rather wonky, especially if you're not used to how MegaZeux games typically operate. For example, the cursor is actually the player character and can only move with the arrow keys.

That's exactly how aOS started. Wasn't quite my first exercise, but was among the first few things I ever made.

I have a little snapshot of how it looked back then, at https://aaronos.dev/AaronOS_Old/



I love collections like these. So cool to see what different people have done with the concept.


That’s a really cool collection.

Thanks for doing this pkhodiyar! It's an amazing list and I am honored to be on it!


Yes, there are use cases, I too loved 'web-desktops' so made a comprehensive github repo listing 171 such webDesktops that people made. Please have a look here, you will love it : https://github.com/zriyans/awesome-OS


This is an excellent list, thanks! I'll be spending a while going through it.
