NASA will commission a team of scientists to begin investigating unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) this fall, the agency announced today. UAPs are simply unidentified flying objects (UFOs) with less of a little-green-alien connotation about them. And that’s reasonable, because things labeled UFOs may not be flying objects at all, but instead optical illusions, image artifacts, […]
After a decade of reading and reviewing books, I’ve decided that it’s time for me to take a step back from blogging. Running this book blog has been such a huge and wonderful part of my life. I’ve written over 600 book reviews and loved the experience of getting to share my love of reading […]

Before, we always had to explicitly name each unwrapped value, for example like this: class AnimationController { var animation: Animation? func update() { if let animation = animation { … } } } But now, we […]
