Reply to TIL 'The Land of Nod' is originally a biblical reference of a sort of purgatory where Cain was exiled after murdering Abel -- rather than a 'dreamland' sleepytime dealie as it is now colloquially known. by quicxly
I always understood Nod as being any land not of Eden.
Not sure where I got that from.

Reply to TIL that the European Union developed a satellite navigation system called Galileo, which can provide an accuracy of up to 20 cm (0.7ft) on smartphones, while GPS only reaches around 3 meters (10ft) by apeowl
GPS design started in the '70s.
I would hope 30 years would lead to some advancements.
