Today I learned the meaning of CAR and CDR [0]. When I learned to program scheme I did not ask why CAR and CDR have such names I just associated those names with their functionality in my brain.
CAR and CDR stand for "Contents of the Address Register" and "Contents of the Decrement Register"
Also CONS stands for "Construct" [1].

Interesting that the group 4 elements on the @compoundchem infographic
Carbon, Silicon etc, whereas Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_4_element
Suggests group 4 is Titanium, Zirconium, Most periodic tables are group 1,2 on the left, then there is a jump over the transition to group 3, Boron, Aluminium, Transition elements are numbered IIIB, IVB (which wikipedia lists as group 4) 2nd group of the transition elements.
So which is correct here, or does it depend on the periodic table you are looking at?

Hey everyone, remember that project I am working on called OSES (Open Source Education System)?
(If not: it's a free, open educational program to help people overcome barriers and reach their potential—covering subjects such as critical thinking, psychology, communication, systems thinking & community development. More details in my pinned post: https://autistics.life/@murdoc/114175617261126366)
The project is almost ready for its first alpha release (v0.1)! I'll be putting it online soon for early review and feedback.
However, "OSES" was always a placeholder. I want a name that will appeal to more people, so I need your help choosing one.
Here is a link to a quick survey/poll to vote. The poll will be open for about a week.
https://framaforms.org/project-naming-survey-1772612666
I'll share results and may ask some follow-up questions afterward. Thanks!

For my second appendix to my Introduction, I'll talk about another project I'm working on, called OSES, or the Open Source Education System. It does not have anything to do with open source software however, not even computers. This is in fact just a placeholder name I've chosen until a better one comes up. It is meant to denote how it is meant to follow a similar method of development as open source software uses, which I'll describe in more detail later. The primary goal of the program is to teach people important knowledge and skills that are too often missing from the traditional education system. Examples include critical thinking, interpersonal communication, and emotion management (think like anger management, but for all emotions). While these are things almost everyone already has some knowledge and skill in already, everyone can benefit from improving them, and there is a lot to learn in these areas that most people are not aware of. OSES is not designed to replace traditional education, but instead work independent of it. It would be accessible, for free, primarily from the Internet in the form of downloadable materials (text, videos, apps, etc.). As time goes on and the program develops, it is my intention that groups will form that will assist in this training. They will be spontaneous, self-organized study groups that can range from large lecture groups to just having a study/practice partner. As many different learning styles will be accommodated as possible in order to reach as many people as possible. It is my hope that this program will not only be helpful to people's lives as individuals, but will also benefit their communities, organizations, and society as a whole. I'll describe more aspects of this project further in future replies to this post. #OSES #education #CriticalThinking
