Morning Briefing (2024-02-25)
Today, in Lincoln, UK, it looks like few clouds with a current temperature of about 7.42°C. Overall for today though, it’ll be scattered clouds and cool down to an average of 6.0°C.
News
In global news, President Zelensky reported that 31,000 troops have been killed in the war in Ukraine. Additionally, there is a revelation on how the C.I.A. secretly aids Ukraine in combating Putin, and concerns raised by Ukraine’s Umerov over delays in Western arms deliveries impacting lives. For more details, you can listen to the latest NHK WORLD RADIO JAPAN - English News broadcast.
Shifting focus to Lincoln, a young cancer survivor from Horncastle and her dog are finalists for a Crufts award, while a survivor of Stubton Hall expresses strong feelings towards the perpetrator. Furthermore, take a virtual tour inside a splendid Tudor style family home in Louth.
In mathematical news, there have been fascinating developments ranging from explaining wildfires through curvature to recent advances in diffeologies and their applications. You can also explore the world of bridges, tricycles, and squares, as well as recent developments in harmonic analysis and its applications.
Dailies
First up, starting the day with a game of chess. Then, moving onto a quick Typeracer match, Typelit page and Monkeytype test to yourself typing quickly, warming up to quickly type out a solution to a Project Euler problem.
That might be quite an intensive task, so next up we’ll cool down a bit with a bit of Sudoku, followed by a fun game of Chessle. Now that your mind has relaxed a bit again, let’s try an International Maths Olympiad! Just one question, don’t worry :)
By this time, you probably want to move somewhere else, so let’s do something we can do on the go if you want to: Lichess tactics and Chess.com puzzle. Now that you’ve moved a bit, let’s explore the world in a Geoguessr game and make sure you know the country names in Globle!
But, we don’t want to forget our language learning! So, next up we’ll quiz some kana and learn/practice some kanji. Then, we’ll move back to chess for a bit to review my favourite openings - choose one white opening and one black opening to start the day from the following:
- King’s Indian (black opening),
- London (white opening),
- Caro-Kann (black opening),
- Ruy López (white opening).
Now, just before we finish up with some proper thinking, let’s combine the previous two dailies into Worldle, then play the regular old Wordle. However - you’re pretty bad with animal names. So, brush up on them here! :D
Finally, we’ll end this morning’s dailies by making sure you can still program somewhat! Here’s a little list, choose a few to explore today:
