If you were one of the millions of children who grew up reading Goodnight Moon before bed, chances are its iconic green bedroom is permanently seared into your memory. Now, for the next four months, you have the opportunity to sleep in the Goodnight Moon room IRL. The Goodnight Moon room has been faithfully re-created—down to the red balloon, bowl of mush, and cow jumping over the moon—for a new immersive suite at the Sheraton Boston Hotel.

Its binaries were lost to time, but earlier this year I fixed compilation with modern toolchains, so I could rebuild it for desktop platforms.

Remember when the Internet could go for weeks or even months without a major outage? That was cool.
It's almost like we've unlearned how to do this right. In the past couple weeks: AWS, Azure, Cloudflare… git at GitHub is currently down.
