Day 2 of 90 on my suspended license and I already hate western Sydney even more than I did when I could drive in lovely crowded toll roads.

A couple specific times tables( weirdly along the 8 times tables) , and converting units up and down (going mm to cm to m to km) are a bit weak. Like I can do them, but they aren't snappy and I'm not as confident as I would like and moving things around and seeing it function seems like a fun way to practice my math as an adult

Came in handy a lot being able to quickly scale a recipe from pounds and ounces into kilos and grams of grains and hops respectively if I saw a recipe I wanted to try mm to cm to m is easy, 10mm to the cm and 100 cm to the m, then 1000 m to the km. It factors by 10 as you step up in units to the next unit!

That I understand this stuff like, almost too intuitively is kinda my problem Like I know to expect the unit to be larger or smaller and every time having to work backwards from that rather than knowing. It's definitely linked with division, like occasionally to decimalise a fraction I will do both sums and pick the one that makes the most sense within the context of the problem rather than being confident in my process. It's never been a problem, but I would prefer just to be confident rather than rely on mental bandaid strategies It's a heuristic I probably developed in primary school that was effective enough. But it is frustrating , kind of how you might use a mnemonic device from early primary school for spelling a word as an adult. Something something know thyself?

I'm from a STEM background so metric conversions are second nature at this point but I always found it easiest to think of the prefix and associate it with the number: deci- is 1/10, centi is 1/100, milli- is 1/1000, micro- is 1/1000000 etc. From there you can basically scale up and down any metric measurement from metres to siemens. Converting into imperial is a nightmare and not worth learning because those units shouldn't exist.

Like I know this isn't a problem in understanding the concept, more in internal application of like, direction (?). Just a niche black hole I've been aware of in myself whenever I encounter this stuff in the wild and my defences aren't up ,so I've gotten used to sanity checking my math and i wanna fix it up

Hopefully all this mask wearing will help people realise they should have better mouth hygiene.

for some reason i cant hear this no matter what settings i use so I assume the title is what hes saying and thats what youre asking me. I got pinged for 30 over on easter long weekend for a 1-2 combo of 3 month mandatory suspension for 30 over and 4 months after that for 17 demerits total. in my defense I am a bit of a sick oval office.
