# Ada

Ada is a structured, statically typed, imperative, wide-spectrum, and object-oriented high-level computer programming language extended from Pascal and other languages, originally designed by a team led by Jean Ichbiah of CII Honeywell Bull from 1977 to 1983.

## Quotes

* When Roman engineers built a bridge, they had to stand under it while the first legion marched across. If programmers today worked under similar ground rules, they might well find themselves getting much more interested in Ada!
** Robert Dewar (President Ada Core Technologies); Quoted in Preben Randhol (2004) "Re: No call for Ada." coding.derkeiler.com, Februari 11, 2004.
* C treats you like a consenting adult. Pascal treats you like a naughty child. Ada treats you like a criminal.
** Bruce Powel Douglass (1998) quoted in: Bo I. Sandén (2011) Design of Multithreaded Software: The Entity-Life Modeling Approach.
* For none of the evidence we have so far can inspire confidence that this language has avoided any of the problems that have afflicted other complex language projects of the past.... It is not too late! I believe that by careful pruning of the ADA language, it is still possible to select a very powerful subset that would be reliable and efficient in implementation and safe and economic in use.
** C. A. R. Hoare (1980) "The Emperor's Old Clothes", 1980 Turing Award lecture, Communications of the ACM 24 (2), (February 1981): p. 75-83.
* Beyond 100,000 lines of code you should probably be coding in Ada.
** P. J. Plauger; Quoted in: Jim Showalt (1993) "Ada, Harsh Language - Computer Programming Language Forum." computer-programming-forum.com. 17 October 1993.
* If you're masochistic enough to program in Ada, we're not going to stop you.

# Acyloin

Acyloins (also referred to as ketols, or alpha-hydroxy ketones) are a class of organic compounds in organic chemistry sharing a common functional group consisting of a hydroxyl group placed on the α-position of a carbonyl group.

## Quotes

* Many oxidants transform acyloins (α-hydroxy ketones) into α-diketones. Copper and bismuth oxidants are commonly selected for this transformation. … Cu(II) salts (e.g., Cu(OAc), or CuSO$_4$) in stoichiometric amounts convert acyloins into diketones. Catalytic amounts of cupric acetate can be used in conjunction with ammonium nitrate. … Commercially available Bi$_2$O$_3$, in the presence of acetic acid, oxidizes acyloins to α-diketones in good yields.

# Acyl halide

An acyl halide (also known as an acid halide) is a chemical compound derived from an oxoacid by replacing a hydroxyl group with a halide group.

## Quotes

* Acyl chlorides are attacked by a variety of nucleophiles, the reactions leading to new carboxylic acid derivatives, ketones, and aldehydes by addition – elimination mechanisms. The reactivity of acyl halides makes them useful synthetic relay points on the way to other carbonyl derivatives.

# Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran

The Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran are numerically the largest and arguably the most powerful in the Middle East. These forces total about 650,000 active personnel (not including the Law Enforcement Force) plus 1,050,000 reserve and trained personnel that could be mobilized when needed. That makes a total of 2,010,000 military personnel that Iran could mobilize.

## Quotes

* Iran has little capability to project conventional forces across the Gulf beyond firing missiles and sending drones. But if U.S. air and naval forces were ever withdrawn and the Iranians were able to put a large land force on the southern side of the Gulf, that would pose a major challenge...
** Kenneth M. Pollack and Joseph W. Rank, "'Little Sparta' and the Good Problem of Capable Allies" (30 August 2020), Lawfare
* Unlike many who have a finger in the world of national security, I've never found Iran to be strategically threatening. Iran's army is designed to oppress its own population, not march on its neighbors. Its air force hasn't been updated since the fall of the shah in 1979, and the Iranians are running out of jets to fall out of the sky. It's navy…well, it doesn't have a navy. It has a bunch of speedboats.
** Peter Zeihan and Melissa Taylor, "The Cutting Room Files, Part 6: The Future of the China" (18 December 2019), Zeihan on Geopolitics

# Armenian hypothesis

The Armenian hypothesis, also known as the Near Eastern model, is a theory of the Proto-Indo-European homeland, initially proposed by linguists Tamaz V. Gamkrelidze and Vyacheslav Ivanov in the early 1980s, which suggests that the Proto-Indo-European language was spoken during the 5th–4th millennia BC in "eastern Anatolia, the southern Caucasus, and northern Mesopotamia".

# Armando Xavier Ochoa

Armando Xavier Ochoa (April 9, 1943–) is an American prelate of the Catholic Church.

## Quotes

* You can’t take the parish priest out of this bishop. I certainly admire those in specialized ministry, but all I wanted to be was a parish priest. I saw growing up in Oxnard these wonderful young priests, reaching out—they used to come and take us out of school, we would be spread-eagled over a U-Haul with food for the poor. That really attracted us. So many of us feel we were called to follow the example of many of those priests who really lived their ministry.

# Armando Valladares

Armando Valladares Perez (born May 30, 1937) is a Cuban poet, diplomat, and human rights activist, who was imprisoned by the Fidel Castro Regime from 1960-1982. His books include the poetry collection, From My Wheelchair (1977), and the autobiographical work, Against All Hope: A Memoir of Life in Castro's Gulag (1985). In 1988, Valladares was appointed by U.S. President Ronald Reagan to serve as the United States Ambassador to the United Nations Commission on Human Rights, a position he held until 1990.

## Quotes

* I am old enough to remember when there was no Amnesty International. I am also old enough to remember a Cuba before Fidel Castro. Indeed, my seemingly simple life trajectory dramatically changed course right as the two were coming into existence. In 1960, at the age of 23, I was taken away at gunpoint in the night for refusing to place a sign on my desk that read, “I’m with Fidel.” One year later, Amnesty International was founded, and I became one of their first prisoners of conscience.
** Armando Valladares. "Against All Hope: My 22 Years In Castro’s Gulags," at huffingtonpost.com 05/13/2016.
* He was a man full of hatred … Che Guevara executed dozens and dozens of people who never once stood trial and were never declared guilty … In his own words, he said the following: "At the smallest of doubt we must execute." And that's what he did at the Sierra Maestra and the prison of Las Cabanas.
** Armando Valladares, speaking about Che Guevara in "‘Che’ spurs debate, Del Toro walkout" in The Washington Times (27 January 2009)

# Armen Sarkissian

Armen Vardani Sarkissian (born 23 June 1953), also written as Sarksyan and Sargsyan, is an Armenian politician, physicist and computer scientist who has served as the 4th President of Armenia since 2018. He served as Prime Minister of Armenia from 4 November 1996 to 20 March 1997 and was the country's longest-serving ambassador to the United Kingdom from 1998 to 2018. Sarkissian was elected on 2 March 2018 and assumed the presidency on 9 April 2018.

## Quotes

* If you can find Newton in 1,000 and Einstein in 10,000, imagine how many talented people can you find in hundreds of millions? This new world is a world of innovation and start-ups.
** "Armen Sarkissian: ‘The moment you stop learning, you die’" in Financial Times (2019)
* It does not matter to me that the behaviour of some political forces and parties has even been disrespectful because, as President, I leave their expressions aside and look at the situation that exists in our country today and those challenges and problems that we have today.
** "In an interview with Aravot.am website and "Aravot" daily (part 1)" (29 March 2021)
* The losers on the battlefield were not the soldier and his spirit, but the decision-making officials who were supposed to be ready for a possible war, properly organize and wage it.
** "In an interview with CivilNet" (11 December 2020)
* I insist that we live in Armenia mixing the imagination and the reality. And this is one of the main reasons. We say ‘we have a good army’, but we do not in reality. We say we have IT, but we do not have it. We have Information system, but I do not know whether we have it or not, which would correspond to the 21st century.
** "Interview with "News" program of the Public Television" (25 November 2020)
* Moreover, nobody gave us independence. We tried, we fought, and we achieved. We achieved it not only at the cost of our will and devotion but also at the expense of the lives of many of our compatriots.
** "Address on Armenia's Independence Day" (21 September 2021)
* Education opens the way to a new life and a new world. Be brave and confident. Open all doors through knowledge, open with your willpower and the impulse of your hearts, diligence, helping each other, trusting each other, learning from each other.
** "Congratulations on the Knowledge and Schooling Day" (1 September 2021)
* Whatever political force you give preference to, and whatever your decision is, remember that it is a decision for the sake of the Homeland, for the sake of our state, for the sake of your future, and that of your family.
** "Vote fairly and freely, according to your conscience only" (19 June 2021)
* The independent statehood is the inviolability and unbargainability of our borders, our ability to make and implement decisions, our capability of ensuring security and dictating peace. We must not only be able to win but also understand in depth how to deal with that victory.
** "Message on the Republic Day (28 May 2021)

# Afrocentrism

Afrocentrism (also Afrocentricity) is an approach to the study of world history that focuses on the history of people of African descent.

## Quotes

* Despite the determinate role of Marxism in the historical development of Black Studies, it never developed an institutional niche. I argue that the rise of Afrocentricity was made possible by the political repression of Black left-radicalism/Marxism.
** Stephen C. Ferguson, Philosophy of African American Studies: Nothing Left of Blackness (2015), p. 16
* What does cultural pluralism signify in the absence of economic pluralism? Perhaps the question seems meaningless. Yet the apparent lack of meaning signals the intellectual retreat. The economic structure of society—call it advanced industrial society or capitalism or the market economy—stands as the invariant; few can imagine a different economic project. The silent agreement says much about multiculturalism. No divergent political or economic vision animates cultural diversity. From the most militant Afrocentrism to the most ardent feminists, all quarters subscribe to very similar beliefs about work, equality and success. The secret of cultural diversity is its political and economic uniformity. The future looks like the present with more options. Multiculturalism spells the demise of utopia.
** Russell Jacoby, The End of Utopia (1999), pp. 39-40

It might be that certain part of the record that everybody waits for--they just let their inner self go and get wild. The next thing you know the singer comes back in and you'd be mad.
