Killer robot posted:Bacon flavored toothpaste sounds ridiculous, but a while back it occurred to me that brushing your teeth must be awful if you hate mint, since how easy is it finding another flavor? There's basically always been cinnamon flavored toothpastes for that kind of person.

Choco1980 posted:That seems like the exact opposite of basic logic skills and is the sort of thinking that creates 80's point and click adventure games. Not really, it's the way most people do math mentally they just don't write it down and realize it. If I asked to you add 1127 to 94 you drat sure wouldn't be doing it in your head the way you'd do it on paper. You'd probably just round those numbers to something easy and say, it's about 1220 and call it a day. This is just that method of math, but exact. It really doesn't make much sense with single digit numbers but where the hell else are you going to start if you have to teach little kids.

Choco1980 posted:I know I'm only contributing to the derail and pulling an "I'm oooold moment, but I was taught the old fashioned way how to do math, and in my head that's exactly how I added those numbers. I saw you asking to add 1127 to 94 and my brain immediately pictured: You're not adding any steps in the alternate method, the steps you're doing are just different. You had to do poo poo like add each place one by one and carry the ones and poo poo, whereas the other method doesn't require any of that. If you're actually picturing graphical representations of math problems you're wasting time, and if you're trying to be fast about it you're probably loving up more often and worse when you do it than if you were just rounding to the nearest ten and then rectifying from there. Nerds don't like to think about it, but the methods that we notate and process math problems by are 100% arbitrary. It worked fine when people just picked random rear end letters to represent numbers, it worked fine before they realized 0 was a thing, and it works fine with the common core method, they just aren't what we learned in school so a lot of goony fucks are scared by the change as they always are.
