I've hung on to spellign.com for a bit over twenty years now.

The name still makes me giggle. I'd love to build something relevant and silly enough to put there, but I haven't found it yet.
Suggestions are welcome! :)

In France, fish isn't usually considered "meat" (viande).
In my child's school, there are only three dietary choices for the kids who eat at the canteen:
* No pork / sans porc (for the muslim or jewish children)
* No meat / sans viande (but there's still fish!)
* Everything

For those in the UK, you can see a Frankfurt Kitchen on display at the new V&A East Storehouse in London:

Have they included real profiles in the screenshots of the "Discover profiles" menu and the list of likes? If so that's pretty irresponsible even with the faces obscured.

I'm quite possibly missing something, but this is baffling to me (Text S1 from the paper) [1]:
> All the chopped carrots were carefully transferred to the glass wash tray. As shown in Figure 2,
> 500 mL of ultrapure water was used to wash the blade and the chopping board further to transfer all the particles in the same glass wash tray.
Who would expect contaminants left on the blade and the board to be counted alongside those in the chopped food itself? I suppose it's difficult to rigorously separate the chopped and the chopped-upon, but the distinction seems essential to support, or not, the hypothesis about human consumption.

Also not to be confused with Google's Test Automation Platform (continuous integration system) [1].

Something which goes further than this, but works very well for my use case and would probably suit others in the WFH crowd: OpenMPTCProuter [1]
This handles failover between connections and also aggregates them using MultiPath TCP to maximize bandwidth & overall reliability at the expense of increased data usage and the cost of running a machine somewhere with a decent connection, even a cheap VPS.
I'm using it to aggregate ADSL, Starlink and 4G, resulting in a stable 250mbps/50mbps connection.

Forgot to say that it's open source (AGPL) on GitHub [1]. I find it handy just being able to run `git blame` on a doc, but I'm sure it could be made more useful. Contributions are welcome!
The only benefit of the hosted version is that the OAuth setup is already done. If you're ok registering an OAuth app with Google (instructions in README.md) then it's trivial to run yourself. Given that there's no fine-grained permissions on Drive - it has to ask for read only access to your entire Drive just to access one doc - I completely understand wanting to run it locally.
