Tactic is knowing what to do when there is something to do.
Strategy is knowing what to do when theres nothing to do.

Strategy is actually broad, conceptual planning on a theatre level of opearations. "How to fight the War."

Tactics are in-field methodoligies, usually on a platoon or squad level. "How to take control of the hill."

Strategy is, hopefully, acheived through tactical operations.

Military lesson for the day.

my fault, a QD translation error, properly translated and with the proper quotation marks it would be something like:

"The tactician must know what to do whenever something needs doing;
the stategist must know what to do when nothing needs doing".
Savielly Tartakover (1887-1956). International Chess Grandmaster.

"Surely chess is a sad waste of brains."

A house with 3 rooms + a bathroom, a livingroom and a kitchen, different dimensions each, atm i didnt had a measuring tape so i made QD gross estimates by head by comparing wall sizes to beds/sofas, counting tiles(measured just with my palm) and similar stuff... and wrote em on a map draft...

After that we did grabbed a measuring tape to give the exact dimensions and measured lenght and width+ the diagonals to correct possible measuring errors, i nailed em all down to 10cm2 margin at the most!... i actually kinda surprised myself...

Life spins out of control and back on it's on plan and time, personal plans and strategies be damned. No amount of preparation can forstall some tragedies.

All great projects succeed one step at a time. One lone step firmly placed.

I found out today that "Monsoon Wife: Return to the Kama Sutra" is the worst movie EVER MADE!!! Apparently, the script was written by retarded dogs.

Wait, tourette´s syndorme is not a joke... it is real, i had to take care of one 10yr child with it for a month, and is certainly not a joke... he also had among other treasures Coprolalia he started with a "You and me dont speak the same fu*king language" and he meant it for the rest of the time... Perhaps sadder than having Down or a phisical disahability... or maybe it was just that i was not prepared for the whole experience...
