I am going to preface this by saying I'm no scientist. I think it is because the expansion velocity is so high. It would be nice to get a definitive answer.

Sounds like you may have two possible issues and I can't tell which one the question is about. 1. You have difficulty explaining or articulating your ideas in general 2. You have difficulty translating your thoughts into physical inter

I think that learning how to use a log table might cement certain relationships for more advanced students. But I do agree that in general there are probably better uses of one's time than to teach them as a first class citizen.

Yes I totally agree with your sentiment that it is vitally important to separate the correct answer from the method by which it is achieved. Honestly understanding mathematics is more important at some level than getting the right answer to

Interestingly that song is apparently about the first time they tried to massively redesign the mathematics curriculum based on on fuzzy math that we were falling behind the Soviets or whatever. My parents tell me they rebased around set th

I feel that common core focuses more on teaching the various methods than embracing the idea that correct answers and understanding are largely what matter rather than any specific method.

I graduated in 2009 and in my engineering courses calculators were disallowed for similar reasons. I have found that courses that disallow calculators generally have the problems set up in a more elegant manner. E.g done properly the result

They've been named like that for six years apparently so I'm not sure how that works for what you linked above. It is a valid point that hopefully doesn't cause problems.

Well that and the growing penchant for revising history by destroying dissent, blacking out unpleasant thoughts and facts, and the onslaught of ridiculous copyright strikes against fair use content.

It's not just intellectual property - it's a capital intensive bioengineering project with probably a half billion or so capex and even more for an outsider to bootstrap.

In the absence of compulsory production and under the current intellectual property rights scheme, price ceilings cause shortages all other things held equal.

You might add a daily task to remove that task just in case you forget. That way you avoid lockout but don't end up opening yourself up accidentally.
