Maybe we should just kill all subhumans who are forced to use calculators.

Engineers must be chiming in on this thread. Some of the most obnoxious people on FR in the ego dept.

I’m an engineer.

And I’m not particularly good at math.

The students in my community college art program are essentially innumerate! They need calculators for most simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. They can not read a ruler! Fractions are a mystery.

Yes,...I have CONTEMPT for the teachers who passed these students from grade to grade.

I have CONTEMPT for the principals who awarded them MEANINGLESS high school diplomas.

I guess that makes me obnoxious and an egoist.
