F=ma only applies when m is constant. F=dp/dt is a more general definition (read "derivative of momentum with respect to time"), where p=mv=momentum.

May the distance divided by distance times time times acceleration be with you.

It's not distance, it's a derivative. Kind of a sucky notation, I agree, but it does make sense, provided you simplify according to the laws of calculus.
