Hey there, internet friends.

Hey there, internet friends. I feel like I make this request maybe once or twice a year, and I know that I generally come up with zilch... but here I go again: do I know *anybody* in New York City with a guest room who likes me enough to host me for a day or two? 😏🤞
It's not that I can't afford a hotel room when I travel. I generally can. But NYC seems uniquely positioned in the world of travel logistics in the sense that you all do not have your garden variety Courtyard Marriott or Doubletree Hilton for around $250/night...
In NYC, travelers seem to be presented with only three choices:
1. the most posh hotel you've ever heard of, for $1000/night at minimum
2. quirky boutique hotel with a 13 sq ft room, for $300/night (no rooms available)
3. battered and firebombed hostel with bunk beds bought at a Dresden fire sale, for $39/night (bag theft included for free)
... I'm just a guy trying to come into town for a weekend to see a play, hah. (And while I appreciate couch offers, I'm over 40 and no longer really do that, please forgive me for being posh)

@deviantollam I feel you on this. I was in NYC for HOPE and needed a place in Manhattan for the night. I was dreading dropping $1K for a room.
But I got a pretty decent deal, room for 1 person at the Hampton Inn Midtown for <$200 before tax, on Hotel Tonight. I was pleasantly surprised at the availability.
Regardless, good luck with finding a place!

Double good news about Spritely's Hoot, Our Scheme->WASM compiler!
WASM 3.0 released, and Hoot gets a mention! https://webassembly.org/news/2025-09-17-wasm-3.0/
AND! iOS updated Safari to support the WASM features we use. Which means you can now play Cirkoban anywhere! https://files.spritely.institute/embeds/cirkoban/

Volevo solo confermare quello che avevi detto in precedenza. Potrebbe avere senso Laveno>Verbania, più o meno a metà lago, tra l'altro Verbania è allo sbocco della val d'Ossola (e di conseguenza al Sempione), ma Angera>Arona, saranno si e no ad una quindicina di chilometri l'una dall'altra, per me sa tanto di boutade politica...
