When more and more countries around the globe are fast embracing the Singapore math curriculum, or part of it, so as not to be left behind educationally and economically, as they copycat or emulate the best educational practices used by local math educators and tiger parents, who have helped put the “fine” city of Singapore on the world’s math education map.
Like the democratization of music, the democratization of Singapore math ought to force math educators in the city-state to embrace the courage imperative, by turning barriers into breakthroughs, or obstacles into opportunities, if they want to maintain an asymmetric advantage over their counterparts in other high GDP economies.

liver math

Liver math is the calculation(s) you make throughout the night to help determine if you are sober enough to drive home.

Alcohol is processed by the body at a determined rate (generally one beer/shot/wine glass an hour), and you can save yourself a night in the drunk tank and some legal fees by adhering to liver math.

Liver math or cab fare. Either is a wise choice. Disregard at your own peril.
Friend #1: "My ex just showed up here with her new bf. I'm leaving as soon as the liver math allows it."

Friend #2: "No way! You're my ride! Let's get fucked up and take a cab when the bar closes. I'll drive you to your car tomorrow."

Friend #1: "Good call. Screw that bitch, anyway."
