I thought that but that wasn't "fitting" in the clue properly and also Speed != Velocity, is it?
And I didn't think it would be a good idea to include "rate of change of displacement with time".
Anyway, you are up for Monday.

Your time will come, if you let it be right.

It doesn't have to be exact, just a "close enough fit" - without it, it isn't a "full clue". If it doesn;t work, pick a different word and start again.

Bit of snow isn't a problem, we have snow socks for he cars, and it brightens the pace up!

snow is all right, snow is fun. The resulting transportation issues and slouch mess afterwards are the things getting to me

Not round here: the local snow doesn't melt. It just blows around until it wears out.

Looks like it needs to warm up a bit.
The rest of the world could probably do with it, too.

Curiously, in a way, I am! My College's Dining Hall[^] They used it as the Great Hall in one of the films, and bits'o' the cathedral throughout.

Ex public school eh? We had tables like that, and the names of all those ex pupils who had died fighting for the 'father land'.

That's not my school, that was at uni.
I am ex public school though, but only very technically, you'd be hard pushed to tell if you actually spoke to me. The school did have an organ with "dulce et decorum est... " on it. This being the north it didn't make much sense to me, dying for a country that effectively ends 200 mile south of here doesn't seem very sweet or proper.

I don't know where you stand but I think everyone deserves some help. Some people think CP does not help with homework problems and that I do not understand. We shouldn't do everything for them but there's no reason to not help them.
I see no issue with helping people that provide enough info to be able to help them. None of us were born knowing everything and not everyone is as good as we are at finding information on their own.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

There is quite a wide gap between helping someone with their code, and writing it for them. I'm happy to help anyone who can show that they are trying, but I'm not going to write their project for them. And in the latter case I don't believe it helps them in the long run.

Which is why we deride them and complain bitterly about their lack of initiative.

Unfortunately in over 40 years in the industry that is the rule rather than the exception.
I have had only three good managers in all that time.
