'Out Of Gas'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
We were in the 70's yesterday and are in the 40's today. Talk about whiplash.
The kitten has been a model guest. She hasn't complained about being limited to my bathroom. She is very friendly when we try to play. I'm going to print out some "Found Kitten" posters and put them around the apartments and surrounding neighborhood.
Level 25 said I had completed all levels. Possibly there are secret further levels I am not privy to?
Maybe it's 2 points for a gold medal and 1 for silver, with a max of 50 points. I'm still stuck on level 16.
That makes sense. I can't figure out what my score is, maybe because I didn't register. But it's not 50 - I am not efficient at constructions. I can get them done, but it can take a lot of steps.
Level 16 hint: the sides of the triangle will be chords of the circumscribed circle. The radius of a circle perpendicular to a chord will bisect that chord.
It is downright weird the things I remember despite never using them for 30 years.
Since I'm tutoring high school math, I'm running into a lot of problems that I haven't seen in forever, like how to factor binomials and whatnot. It turns out that I have a big advantage over my kids, in that I have the confidence that comes from knowing I can do these things, which puts my mind in the frame to work out the problem.
It's also probably not a coincidence that I became a programmer, which in a sense is just a series of really-big-word-problems.
Thanks. It was the perpendicular part I was missing. I still don't see how to do it in the minimum number of steps though. I'm pausing at level 18 because of Things To Do.
Yeah, that I don't know.
Perhaps it is 25 levels, but separate scores for using only the primitive tools or using any of the other tools? Somehow or other the high score seems to be 50.
Kinda crazy shopping going on. Over $100 at comic store. New mattress for Mac (he's been using the mattress from the guest bed). A pet step for old man cats to get into my bed easier. And some replacement outside decorations.
Those finger limes/caviar limes were available through my CSA so I got some. First time cutting into one today. That is a weird fruit.
BRRR. Cheered the half and whole marathoners for over three hours. Roommate came down for the last 90 minutes or so--we were hoping to see a friend of hers go by, but he must've hit a wall or something--he was doing 8:45 min/mile at the 13 mile mark, but we were just past 20 and waited until the like, 10 min/mile people were going by and didn't see him. It was 25 degrees out this morning! So cold!
