@BenRiceM When I see people judge each other’s intelligence by how many mathematical questions & answers they can remember / recite / blag through, instead of CALCULATE, it makes me see that this level of skill is the only one they know.

“How many zeroes in one million?” isn’t just something I see people guess with confidence on social media. It’s something I see in young children who haven’t been taught the value of working a problem, instead of hoarding answers.
