I did something similar once, although kind of fhe opposite in thqt I reverted to simpler math. I used Euclidean geometry to solve a problem that was supposed to require calculus. Not only did I get credit, tbe teacher praised me for coming up with a more intuitive solution.

FTFY

This is not true for those high school physics courses that don't use calculus. They are useless as calculus is absolutely fundamental to even the most basic physics.

If the test doesn't explicitly say what method to use then any valid method should be acceptable.

>>8398894
> instead of using the kinematic equations
It doesn't have to explicitly say shit. It's implicit.

Enjoy your ban, underage fag

it's okay anon, sometimes I have trouble with basic addition too

no talented, brilliant person ever aspired to becoming a highschool teacher

>>8398837
dude that's awesome, thanks for posting it

>>8398910
Holy shit you took the b8 and greentexted his post number

>>8398822
the fact that you knew lagrangians at 15 at all is a testament to your drive, don't see why the teacher was mad

>>8398881

you can do plenty of physics without calculus.

>>8398837
law 12 triggers me

>>8398822
teacher was just retarded. Proove him wrong:
>be you
>become university student due to masterful maths
>Become Physicist
>Form new field of physics
>meet teacher years later as a professor
>give him a test to do
>whatever maths he uses, tell him in test "you cant do that, show your work the right way"
>laugh at his tears

Get to it anon!

math is a chaotic evil? or a necessary evil? Why so?

I was talking to Hiroshimoot and we agreed that dumb frogposters should be banned on sight.
We're currently training a neural network that will automatically detect sadfrog images.

This is the kind of stuff people spend a decent chunk of their life working -out of-, not into. Not to say there aren't many valid points, but this entire document is composed on the presupposition of greater slavery to one's environment than really has to be the case. There are also more meaningful and productive ways to live your life, and claw your way to the top, than wasting your time on petty infighting, posturing, and positioning.

Harvest what you want, but I advise ignoring this and finding your own way. Take it from someone who developed a lot of this on their own. It puts the world through a lens that just isn't accurate, and frames things in a way that just ain't so.

>did the same in HS physics
>questions marked correctly
Sucks to be you.

Thank you for this.

this.

I was bullied in high school and a lot of these "rules of power" align pretty well with defense mechanisms i put on myself for years because of it. When I finally learned how to trust people and interact with them at a normal level I realized how toxic these ideas are. sure there are situations where they might be a good idea to consider, but the majority of the time you are putting yourself in a mindset that places you vs everyone else. you end up sad and alone.
