for x in y:
pass
wotw, heuristic
Means a quick rule of thumb. something you can use to approximate a result really quickly.
Means a quick mental shortcut.
Like if i asked you how long would it take my money to double at 8% annual interest?
My answer, in a flash would be 9 years.
How did I know that, so quickly?
Because I used a quick heuristic. The Rule of 72.
If I divide 72 by the rate of interest, I can quickly get a grasp of how quickly my money will double.
wotw, kilogram
the mass of a cylinder, stored in a locked vault in Paris. all the other kilograms must match the mass of this one!

Er no, not any more :) our standard of mass is now based on an infinitesimally small constant of the universe, the relation of the energy of a photon to its frequency.
Derek Muller explains,
wotw, mise en place
ok, switching to wotw instead of wotd, because i can’t keep up otherwise :)
mise en place means having everything ready before you start, everything in its own place.
handy when it comes to writing code too.
wotd, Ineffable
if you’re following the #goodomens craze you’ll bump into this word a lot.
means unknowable.
don't know. but i know it is holy and sacred. so won’t talk about it. that kind of feeling.
wotd, halcyon
an amazing peaceful prosperous time
throwback to a golden age!

wotd, supercalifragilisticexpialidocius
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious! If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious,
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Here’s to a new journey.
