IIRC Armstrong said some years later that he had unintentionally left out the "a".


Ten to thirteen new states.

Alternatively 10 to 14 new colonies without voting right with people getting less than citizen rights (something similar to status that Baltic states have for ethnically Russians). You have to deserve right to vote.

That is a lot to unpack. Pass.

The greatest border in the world, headed down the commode.

Joan Rivers had a marvelous remedy for this.

When someone says to you "We've met" and you're drawing a blank, look them in the eye and say "Yes!... but WHERE?"

... and they'll take it from there.


It is my unhumble opinion that Western Civ hit a local maximum with Monty Python, Project Apollo, and Woodstock.

And PDP11, Lisp, and Unix.

Second tier, and not followed by clear decline. (IMHO, YMMV.)

1:2 adults:kids ? That's crazy.

> 1:2 adults:kids ? That's crazy.

It sounds crazy, but it only applies in one case: a home-based childcare where the license holder has less two-years of experience and all the children are under 2 years of age and none of them are walking independently. For more experienced primary licensees, and older children, the ratios are higher. [0]

For childcare centers, the ratios are also higher: [1]

For infants (under 1 year) the required ratio is 1:4 with a group size of up to 8, or 1:3 with a group size of 9

For toddlers (under 30 months) the required ratio is 1:7 with a group size of up to 14, or 1:5 with a group size of 15

For preschoolers (under 5 years) the arequired ratio is 1:10 with a group size of up to 20

For school age children the required ratio is 1:15 with a group size of up to 30.

Also not accurate. I have a 2 year old in daycare in Seattle and the ratio is 8:1. I believe it’s 6:1 or maybe 4:1 for infants. I’ve never heard of 2:1 that would be absurd

If a drone flies at a speed that gives birds time to take notice and react/avoid, does it remove the danger ? I wonder if there is wide variation among species.

So, which is it ? Do you want to end up writing extremely detailed requirements, in English ? Or do you want to DIY by filling your head with software-related abstractions - in some internal mental "language" that might often be beyond words - and then translating those mental abstractions to source code ?

Where is my wristantikythera ?
