On the other hand, I already have a powerful computing device in my pocket, capable of providing an extremely flexible interface (admittedly not with physical buttons). Why should I carry another object just to do maths?
- brudgers 11y agoWhen I need to do a math as part of my primary activity, I use my HP12C. In part that's because it is easier for me to use a dedicated device, even in the field, than to wade through an app store and it is more pleasurable for me to use something that is advertising free and more intellectually satisfying to me to not share personal data with advertizers when I perform calculations. I didn't say anything about what anyone else should or shouldn't do.
