Why aren't you using a sliderule? You know calculators

Why aren't you using a sliderule?

You know calculators ruin minds right?

All the best at mental math trained using sliderules and abacuses to train their minds
>>

Why don't you just memorize your constants and lectures like a normal person. Fucking writing and tools are making the youth mentally weak these days.
>>
>>8442703
I don't care about being really good at mental math.
>>
>>8442705
Kids these days can't even triple integrate on paper, let alone in their head

This generation needs all the help it can get
>>
>>8443054

implying anyone can triple integrate on paper

>needing to actually calculate numbers
if you have a real job you work with manipulations of functions and expressions and never have to even touch the underlying numbers

>memorizing
He doesn't even derive his constants every time he needs them

Stay pleb :^)

I have a slide rule, a soroban, and a compass kit. I intend to become proficient with each tool, but it's a back-burner meme-activity.

>abacuses

Oh. Then please explain how sliderulers work?
>>
>>8443135
You multiply by summing on logarithmic scales. Division is the same in reverse.
>>
>>8443083
>derive
>constants
So, during a test, you bring out a pendulum and a chronometer to measure the gravitational constant?
>>
>>8444634
Of course, how else could I be sure. Memorization is for sheeple like you that take things at face value
>>
>>8444634
Obviously, there's variation in the local acceleration of gravity.
