I suspect Virginia Hall's obituary was also Overlooked https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/24/books/review/sonia-purnel...

I just realized you're not referring to the game Paris: La Cite de la Lumiere, which is also a wonderful game! https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/276498/paris-la-cite-de-...

I'm a little confused... I feel like most of these exist in some form already? I've seen chat likes, message indicators, notification reply, homescreen before. Tagging in a chat ap…

I switched some of my side projects (simple Rails apps) over to Render on someone's recommendation. Render charges $7 for the lowest tier, which I'm confident is all I'll need prob…

Wasn't it called The Footage?

It would make sense to keep this list curated, as people who don't have a background in physics and/or astronomy might think a piece of fiction depicts it well, but misses some key…

Thanks for sharing this. I actually had this exact idea last year, but BBC News implemented it better than I probably ever would have.

I definitely started recalling the White Sky scenario when reading this post.

Who can hold his breath for ten minutes!
