I saw the Moon in a bright blue afternoon sky and realized I still instinctively think of it as something that comes out at night. I know the Moon orbits Earth and reflects sunlight, but which part of its orbit makes it...
I committed `dist/` and other generated files into three tiny Git projects before I understood `.gitignore`. Adding those paths to `.gitignore` stops new untracked files, but Git still tracks the ones already committed....
