    Except for that time the definition of division changed 130 years ago. Which is not a rule! It’s notation, or syntax, or possibly sometimes a rule. Whichever one lets them sneer hardest.

    I tried explaining RPN to them a year ago. They still insist there’s parentheses in it. Today they called it an “app.”

    Dogmatic patience vampire is still trying to bait me into further wasted effort.

        Oh of course. The sky isn’t blue unless that’s written in a maths textbook.

        And if you look up and see stars, it’s still blue, because it’s written in a maths textbook! Are you saying a teacher could be wrong?!, smug emoji, crying emoji, roll-eyes emoji?
