    I chose "idyllic", expecting titles like Kiki's Delivery Service, but all the recommendations were either fighting or sports-related movies (Raging Bull, Southpaw, Rocky, etc). Som…

    Yes, it's sorted by name in natural order. I haven't decided yet which would work best as default (this vs insertion order) -- feedback is welcome. This works well for numbered boo…

    Just SQLite - two tables, one for the nodes, one for edges + some fancy constraints and queries. I was tempted to make a custom binary format, but that's a big task, and it seems t…

    I believe something like this would work (excuse the comments normally not allowed in JSON): { paths: [ { points: [ [10, 10], // 0 [90, 10], // 1 [90, 90], // 2 [10, 90] // 3 ], li…

    F9 can only deliver 60 Starlink sats per launch, which would be 685 more launches. (Transporter-1 delivered more because the satellites were lighter/smaller.) SpaceX is currently d…
