This involves some HTML in your Markdown, but isn’t very difficult. You’re just going to add an anchor tag (with an ID but no href) immediately above the heading, like so:
<a id=“some_examples”></a>
## Some Examples
When you’ve got that, you can just use the anchor in a Markdown link:
I’ve provided a few [examples](#some_examples) to illustrate this concept.
I’m pretty sure that “oh, shoot, things got wonky… toss a 13th month in here real quick” is due to people trying to force months to fit weeks.
It’s the opposite of what I was saying about the role that months play in timekeeping & how they work.
ALSO, the same can be said for weeks & leap days… so if it’s a point against months, it’s just as much a point against weeks.
Months are one of the best ways for a low-tech/pre-tech culture to keep track of dates (using the Zodiac for something it can actually do—act as a calendar you can see no matter where you are in the world).
Keeping them around is a sensible fail-safe in case some nuclear power sets us back into the dark ages.
It’s definitely been translated into the most used languages, but there are a bunch more that are being worked on still.
Here’s an infographic on it from another org: https://www.wycliffe.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/2023_Infographic-Large_EN.pdf
Looks like the way they calculate it, 80% of people in the world have access to a full translation of the Bible in their language.
An internship is a role where a person learns how to do this. (And someone who knows how to do this knows it’s orders of magnitude more involved than the two days you were given — two months is a more realistic timeframe.)
Here’s a personal experience of mine, so you have more to compare this with:
When interviewing for a developer position (not an internship), I was once given a take-home programming task to complete over 2-3 days: basically a small, self-contained web app that they had made intentionally buggy and poorly-composed in various ways. I was tasked with identifying & fixing the problems, then providing a write-up of why I changed what I changed. (The package was different enough from their specialty that it was pretty obvious I wasn’t doing their work for them. I confirmed after being hired that this same task was given to all applicants.)
Again, that was for hiring a developer. The whole point of an internship is that you’re being taught and trained on the job.
If you’re already able to build what those people asked of you, then you’re overqualified for the role.

MechWarrior 2? Man, that takes me back…
Cool article. It looks like they only tested this with wasp faces, though — still inconclusive as to whether the wasps around my yard hate me personally.
This is why they want us to return to the office.
I’m guessing that if you have the right kind of Pal, you could figure out a way to Pay them to help you figure it out…
Genesis 5:4:
”The days of Adam after he fathered Seth were 800 years; and he had other sons and daughters.”
If it’s the USA, then “iced tea” may actually mean “sweet tea” (an American South tradition), which is often prepared something like this:
It may be a stronger tea, but so much sugar gets added (probably 3x what would be used to sweeten tea served hot) that you typically don’t notice any bitterness.
