How to math:
Be expected to somehow already know 50,000 trigonometric identities
But you can derive the other 49,994 from a half-dozen key ones though.
Hey! At least the equations have solutions sometimes
0 divided by 0 🥲
Hey, maybe it's just an indeterminate form. You should try differentiating one more time. This time it should work, right?
Ah this brings me back to my bachelor course on Quantum Physics. Once you end up with intermediate equations spanning a full sheet of paper you start questioning your life choices.

My actual high school experience. I enjoy math these days. When I was expected to learn and demonstrate it, I was an unstable teenager unsure if I hated myself or my parents more. (Spoiler alert: it was my parents >_>) Doing math made me slow down and make space in my head, which ~~let out all the dead Hanks and Deans~~ allowed the TRUAMA to flood in.
I like the idea of replacing school by an unordered collection of qualifications, which you can demonstrate anytime. Can visit classes or watch YouTube, take two weeks or five years.
We expect children and teens to study boring stuff while their hormones are boiling, and to decide how their next five decades should look like. Especially tough for those who quit early to start working "lower" jobs.
Your PI is going to hear about this blatant plagerism of my work!
