Count the Triangles

Depending on your interest in puzzles esp. of a mathematical variety then this may be nearly trivial (I say nearly because I had to stop myself once or twice from declaring a too quick answer and look deeper).

I'm going to let Chiara tackle it, should be a good challenge for her and help teach her her to take her time and be thorough!

Coding is the new Cursive!

Great article in the Globe & Mail...I've been saying this for awhile now!  This is why we'll be sending Chiara to coding camp in a few years.  Many great points in the article, the 1 I want to highlight is that kids learning coding now doesn't mean they are on the path to be software developers, 1 study estimates 65% of kids entering primary school now will end up in jobs that don't even exist yet!  And you can bet whether those jobs are in biology or media they will involve some futuristic form of coding!

A Climate Change Solution

One of my LinkedIn connections shared this link with the caption "someone please share this with POTUS"

The Story of Soil - not sure if it can solve all of the Climate Change problem but if we move to renewables and implement this, could make a big dent in it!

Witty & Concise Summary of Politics

I saw this on LinkedIn, so true...so true

I told my son, “You will marry the girl I choose.” He said, “NO!” I told him, “She is Bill Gates’ daughter.” He said, “OK.” I called Bill Gates and said, “I want your daughter to marry my son.” Bill Gates said, “NO.” I told Bill Gates, My son is the CEO of World Bank.” Bill Gates said, “OK.” I called the President of World Bank and asked him to make my son the CEO. He said, “NO.” I told him, “My son is Bill Gates’ son-in-law.” He said, “OK.” This is exactly how politics works . . . HAVE A LOVELY WEEKEND FRIENDS!
