Alaska runs about 220 aircraft a day through Seattle, and every one of them needs a gate. I took a year of flight data and built a model that plans the gates for a whole day, then re-plans them when something goes wrong.
Pick a day, break it, and run it.

A note on how this was built: I designed the model and wrote everything on this site, including the mistakes documented on the Methods page. Claude wrote the code: the interactive website, the API, and the backend pieces that got complicated enough that doing them alone would have taken a lot longer. It also made the result better than what I'd built alone. Full story on the Methods page.
