Antipater (astrologer)

Antipater (Ancient Greek: Ἀντίπατρος) was an astrologer or mathematician of ancient Greece of uncertain date. He wrote a work upon genethlialogia, in which he endeavored to explain man's fate, not from the circumstances under which he was born, but from those under which he had been conceived.[1] Nothing further is known of his life.[2]

gollark: Oh, and their suggestion of "free 15Mbps internet connectivity" is underspecified and stupid. I would just have someone or other design a mandatorily-implemented-in-all-computers-with-communications-hardware self-organizing mesh network protocol.
gollark: Schools would be replaced with large warehouse-type spaces with computers, vaguely intelligent-looking adults and arbitrarily large quantities of children in them.
gollark: The profit margin cap on companies is obviously stupid. Instead, clones of me (technology TODO) would be authorized to randomly inspect and restructure companies to make them work better.
gollark: In the interests of fairness (treating people how they want to be treated), the death penalty would only be used on people who had previously supported the death penalty.
gollark: So I would instead assign a quota for *total* health, and distribute healthcare to maximize that.
