Welp, I had said I’d allow 2 hours for figuring out how to open up the next fact when you’re done the first. It took longer, but I did it… and then realized that for purposes of seeing what it’s about, locking a user into that path would be pretty awful. I think the […]

Moving to Atom because my organizational skills aren’t up to codepen.io . It’s 10:47 and really quiet in here (but yes, there have been 5 folks here and they are getting it done and handing it in *because of here.* So! Let’s see if I can get the stuff I have that works working… […]

Pretty cool webinar about “Just Equations.” … and oh, my, apparently the example of “The Matthew Effect” was a literal experience in the author’s life. Two girls w/ almost equal athleticism but with one ball, the one a tad ahead got 20 times as much practice kicking as the other; with 20 balls they […]

The most recent article was about math beyond developmental — college algebra. This article is pre-developmental; it’s about high school. The authors aim high with this analogy: we should be “making mathematics ‘a pump, not a filter’. That’s worth pausing and considering. What would that look like???? The *antithesis* of gatekeeping.

(Yes, I’m bus not bike today.) So my codepen individual pages don’t […]

So, after yesterday, I almost want to go buy a lottery ticket. Fixing bathroom floor: tucked in the space under the toilet was an already cut chunk of wood to go where it goes to support things, with “tail joist” stenciled onto it (not even handwritten). LIke, just “planning ahead.” Second: I’d put in […]

I *know* *know* KNOW that if I can (could/can yes I can) wrap my brain around some Object Oriented Thinking… … that I can define the different parts of functions for different facts elegantly and efficiently. Right now, there are separate .js pages. you answer a question… if it’s a “rule” fact (o, 1, […]

Okay, so last night I endeavored to productive past my brain time … to try to at least stick a link from individual quizzes back to the main page. Well, there were blank pages and pages not talking to the .css … oh, turns out if I make sure to type in https:// instead […]

I was getting kind of hopeful about figuring out stuff on my own website, after lots of feeble, tiny attempts. I went to my quizzes and … no formatting, no .css, and in the case of the quizzes, no content. Blank. When I went back and hand-typed https:// at the beginning things worked. Well, […]

… so, seems the “fifth anniversary upgrade” at FreeCodeCamp … has issues. I’m told that it’s “bad timing” that nets me the “can’t log in from that IP address” error message… but … the timing is always bad and while I got in after clearing old files at work, it didn’t work at home. […]
