[ { "content": "I always thought that Americans Neil Armstrong and Edwin \"Buzz\" Aldrin were the first people to land on the moon, but this Wikipedia article says it was Soviet cosmonaut Alexi Leonov. Which fact is correct and why?\n\nFor All Mankind is an American science-fiction drama television series created by Ronald D. Moore, Matt Wolpert, and Ben Nedivi and produced for Apple TV+. The series dramatizes an alternate history depicting \"what would have happened if the global space race had never ended\" after the Soviet Union succeeds in the first crewed Moon landing ahead of the United States.[1] The title is inspired by the lunar plaque left on the moon by the crew of Apollo 11, which reads in part, \"We Came in Peace for All Mankind\".[2]\n\nIn an alternate timeline in 1969, Soviet cosmonaut Alexei Leonov becomes the first human to land on the Moon. This outcome devastates morale at NASA, but also catalyzes a U.S. effort to catch up. With the Soviet Union emphasizing diversity by including a woman in subsequent landings, the United States is forced to match pace, training women and minorities who were largely excluded from the initial decades of U.S. space exploration. Each subsequent season takes place 10 years later, with season two taking place in the 1980s, season three taking place in the 1990s, (and as revealed in the season-three finale) season four taking place in the 2000s.\n\nRonald D. Moore explained how history had been different in the series: \"Sergei Korolev was the father of the Soviet space program; in our reality, he died during an operation in Moscow (in 1965) ... And after that point, their Moon program really never pulled together.... Our point of divergence was that Korolev lives, ... and he made their Moon landing happen.\"[9]", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The article refers to a fictional TV series called For All Mankind.

Taking a deep breath, I relaxed my muscles, collected my thoughts, and parked the car. I replayed those words in my head, my blood boiling up to my ears, and I kept coming back to the same question: I’ve been on the receiving end of much worse before, why am I so furious? I then realized who those words were from. That driver was a fellow American, someone who I could have stood shoulder-to-shoulder with at a World Cup game cheering for the same country. This thought infuriated me and made me question the depth of the American spirit in the United States. \n\nBack in my apartment, I tried to come to terms with the fact that people from all walks of life, even Americans, can discriminate. It took much self-restraint for me not to start that car chase and I was proud of myself for showing restraint. As someone who wasn’t always good at remaining calm, I have grown tremendously in controlling my temper over the past few years. Before that day, the concept of the American spirit was still largely a hazy idea for me. I vaguely believed Americans should focus on helping themselves before helping others when they are in need, even if that need is intangible like cultural acceptance. However, my encounter with that driver helped develop my belief about the American spirit: the American spirit is the continuous never-ending cycle of self-improvement and helping others. These two ideas of simultaneous self-improvement and helping others are both necessary in building a grounded foundation and it is up to each true American to find his or her style. Sometimes it is not so straightforward, and almost always, it is not easy. On that day, I focused on composure and having a mature response. This in turn stopped me from compounding the driver’s hate with my hate and that was about as much help as I could give him. In reality, anybody can simply be an American by legal definition, but fully embodying the American spirit is much more meaningful. This realization continues to grow my appreciation and admiration for those with true American spirit. \n", "role": "assistant" } ]

[ { "content": "Change this article to a list of instructions.\n\nProper Axolotl Aquarium Size\nSince axolotls are bottom-feeding animals, the height of their aquarium is not as important as the length and width of it. Reaching an adult size of up to 10 inches in length or more, your axolotl needs plenty of room to turn around and fully extend its body in any direction. If an axolotl’s habitat is too small, it can cause stress for the animal, which can lead to health problems in the long term.\n\nTo accommodate the lifelong growth of your pet, we recommend nothing smaller than a 30 or 40-Gallon Breeder tank, along with a lid to prevent the axolotl from jumping out of its enclosure (it’s happened before!). This is a common aquarium size and they are readily available at most pet stores and fish shops.\nAxolotl Aquarium Filtration\n\nAxolotls evolved in the relatively still waters of Lake Xochimilco in the valley of Mexico. Therefore, you should avoid using filters and equipment that produce a high amount of water flow and surface agitation in your axolotl’s aquarium.\n\nAt the same time, axolotls also produce a significant amount of waste which can quickly pollute their water if there is inadequate filtration in the tank. Canister filters, hang-on-back filters, and internal filters with adjustable flow rates are all ideal—providing three types of filtration (mechanical, biological, and chemical) to help your axolotl thrive.\n\nAnother benefit of these three types of filters is that they allow you to aim the filtered water towards the surface of the tank. This helps prevent a buildup of debris and small particles from accumulating and creating a glossy film on the surface of the water.\n\nA less expensive option, while not as effective, is a sponge filter. Although they lack chemical filtration, they still provide adequate mechanical and biological filtration as long as they are large enough to accommodate the filtration load of the aquarium and its resident(s).\n\nSponge filters will collect debris, waste, and other free-floating particles while simultaneously supplying plenty of surface area for beneficial bacteria to develop.\n\nFilters do not eliminate the need for regular maintenance. All aquariums require routine maintenance to keep them running at their optimal performance, and to keep the animals living there happy and healthy. Practicing a regular water change routine and performing regular water tests is essential to make sure your axolotl’s environment is as comfortable and healthy as possible. There are many filter options available on the market. Here are some we recommend based on our many years of experience keeping aquatic animals:", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Proper Axolotl Aquarium Size\n\n1.

Also, it shows the costs and benefits that are related to the earning of that revenue. At the bottom of the statement or the “bottom line,” the report will show whether a firm had net earnings or net losses over the time the statement is reporting for. Lastly, the income statement reports earnings per share (EPS) which tells the reader the amount shareholders would receive if the firm decided to distribute all its net earnings for a specific time.\n\nThe balance sheet gives the reader details on the firm’s assets, liabilities, and stockholders’ equity. These three variables make up the basic accounting equation where assets equal liabilities plus stockholder’s equity. Assets are anything that a firm owns that has value. This means assets can be either sold or used so the firm can provide products or services resulting from the use of said assets. Liabilities represent certain amounts of money that a company may owe to others. A firm can have liabilities that are due within the year (short-term) or liabilities that are due over a year (long-term). These can include various obligations like bank loans, accounts payable, or even rent. Stockholder’s equity represents the amount of money that would be remaining if a firm sold all its owned assets and paid off all its liabilities where what is left over would belong to the shareholders.\n\nThe statement of cash flows gives the reader a company’s inflows and outflows of cash. This report is important due to being able to show if a company has enough cash on hand to pay off its expenses and purchase further assets. This report shows the changes over time rather than the absolute dollar amounts at a specific point in time. Usually, the statement of cash flows is divided into three parts which include operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities.\n", "role": "assistant" } ]

There are many side hustles you can do both in person and virtually if you'd like to earn extra money or develop a passive income. Here are some ideas for things you could do on the side to make money while still working a traditional day job:\n\n1. Edit Videos. Oftentimes brands need to produce promotional materials but don't necessarily have the time or expertise to do it in-house, so they hire freelancers to edit video content. \n2. Sell NFTs. Non-fungible tokens are used to buy and sell products online. If you have something creative to sell, NFTs can be a great way to turn a steady profit. \n3. Be a social media manager. Many companies or small businesses need a social media presence but don't necessarily want to deal with posting and coming up with good content all of the time. This is why many businesses will hire someone else to do this for them. \n4. Be a virtual assistant. This is a straightforward side hustle that can be done from anywhere. \n5. House sit. Housesitting is an industry in itself where people that have second homes or go on vacation but want someone to look after their space, including pets and plants, hire other people to do so. \n6. Teach a language. You don't necessarily have to be bilingual to teach your native language to others, and this can be done virtually or in person. \n7. Rent out your space. Airbnb has made it super simple and profitable to rent out your spare room or your entire home if you aren't using it. \n8. Sell products on Etsy. These can be physical products or digital designs like branding or spreadsheets, for example. \n9. Drive for a rideshare company. If you have a car, driving for Uber or Lyft in your downtime or on the weekends is a great way to earn money on the side. \n10. Deliver food. Depending on where you live, delivering food through Postmates or Deliveroo can be a substantial side hustle and you don't even need a car. \n11. Write an e-book. Since it's possible to self-publish, there's no downside to creating an e-book on a topic you're familiar with and selling it on Amazon. \n12. Create an online course. This is another thing that may require a good amount of work upfront, but can eventually turn into a passive income. ", "role": "assistant" } ]
[ { "content": "Rewrite this list of Do's and Don'ts into a paragraph.\n\nHere are some do’s and don’ts about making your baby’s sleep space safe:\nDo put your baby to sleep on his back on a flat, firm surface, like a crib mattress covered with a tightly fitted sheet. Use only the mattress made for your baby’s crib. The mattress should fit snugly in the crib so there are no spaces between the mattress and the crib frame. The mattress shape should stay firm even when covered with a tightly fitted sheet or mattress cover.\nDo put your baby to bed in his own crib or bassinet. Don’t bed-share. This is when babies and parents sleep together in the same bed. Bed-sharing is the most common cause of death in babies younger than 3 months old. Keep your baby’s crib close to your bed so your baby’s nearby during the night. The American Academy of Pediatrics (also called AAP) recommends that you and your baby sleep in the same room, but not in the same bed, for the first year of your baby’s life but at least for the first 6 months\nDo make sure your baby’s bassinet, crib or play yard meets current safety standards. Visit the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to learn more about product safety standards or product recalls.\nDo remove hanging window cords or electrical wires near where your baby sleeps. Babies can get tangled in them and choke. \nDo keep the room at a comfortable temperature. If your baby is sweating or his chest feels hot, he may be overheated.\nDon’t use sleep positioners. These sometimes are called nests or anti-roll pillows. They often are mats or wedges with pillows on either side to help keep your baby in place. The Food and Drug Administration (also called FDA) warns that sleep positioners can cause babies to die because of suffocation. \nDon’t let your baby sleep in a carrier, sling, car seat or stroller. Babies who sleep in these items can suffocate. If your baby falls asleep in one, take her out and put her in her crib as soon as you can.\nDon’t put your baby to sleep on soft surfaces, like a waterbed, sofa, soft mattress or cushion.\nDon’t keep crib bumpers, loose bedding, toys or other soft objects in your baby’s crib. They put your baby in danger of being trapped, strangled or suffocated.\nDon’t use cribs with drop-side rails. Don’t put portable bed rails on a regular bed. Babies can get stuck in rails and choke.
