What happens if the entire generation is students like this?
You can't believe your lying eyes!
I'm so sick of this trope. The point of numeracy is not in case you're suddenly caught without a calculator, although longhand arithmetic is definitely a good skill to possess.
I mean, kinda, in that today's tech leaders consider themselves god-kings, and not, like... people who sell word processing CDs at Circuit City.

Because as we all know, if you can't do something perfectly every time, you might as well not even try.

Crucially, this also determines the quality of your medical care, and how hard the nursing home staff will hit you after you retire.
Everything in America is a competition. I'm sorry, but I chuckled considering that this _very website_ is devoted entirely to ruthlessly choosing winners and losers in (what purports to be) a cutthroat field. It's…
Who knew it was this easy? Thank you, citizen.
