@github.awesome: THIS is for everyone who doomscrolls Google Maps at 2am clicking on random islands asking, ‘What even IS this place?’ — because someone finally built the tool we all needed. It’s called History, and it lets you click anywhere on a 3D globe — any island, mountain, tiny Arctic village with like 9 people — and it will actually research the entire history of that location for you. Actual research across historical archives, academic papers, and the modern web — for up to 10 minutes. #github #opensource
So instead of just typing “History of Italy” in your preferred LLM (or Google search)? Not much of a benefit it seems

The selected location should be more specific. You said you can research even little arctic villages, but when you clicked on Sardinia the only picture that came up is not even on the island. Imagine clicking on Hawaii and the Empire State Building pops up
