Mitchell Point (Antarctica)
Mitchell Point (64°13′S 62°3′W) is a point at the south side of the entrance to Hill Bay on the east coast of Brabant Island, in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. It was photographed by Hunting Aerosurveys Ltd in 1956–57, and was mapped from these photos in 1959. The point was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for American surgeon Silas W. Mitchell, the founder of neurology in the United States.[1]

gollark: I have some applications sending data over websocket to the browser - mostly JSON. They work in Chrome and Firefox on Android, but not on Firefox on my Linux systems - it just says "failed to establish connection". Specifically, they work if I run them directly on my local machine but not behind my server's reverse proxy.
gollark: Anyone know a good place to ask about this?
gollark: Also, the webserver doesn't seem to show any accesses happening either.
gollark: I still can't figure out why websockets on my site are behaving weirdly with Firefox and it's very annoying. I may still be using them wrong, but wireshark and mitmproxy don't show *any* request happening when Firefox connects, but do show the other requests for content and stuff.
gollark: But they use powers of two, generally, so 2, 4 and 8.
