A Book that held a reign of terror over a certain school…
“did you hear about Graphing for math?” “
Dont remind me of that age.”
"letters in math" are like a torture, u can feel the bad vibes in the classroom when a teacher say "x worth this and this and bla bla bla"
German math textbooks that were used during the reign of Adolf Hitler in the Second World War, whose word problems often mockingly or sickeningly demonize the “undesirables.”
One 1941 Nazi math question is: “Every day, the state spends RM 6 on one cripple; RM 4 1/2on one mentally ill person; RM 5 1/2 on one deaf and dumb person; RM 5 3/5 on one feeble-minded person; RM 3 on one alcoholic; RM 4 4/5 on one pupil in care; RM 2 1/10 on one pupil at a special school; and RM 9/20 for one pupil at a normal school. Calculate the expenditure of the state for one pupil in a special school and one pupil in an ordinary school over eight years and state the amount of higher cost engendered by the special school pupil.”

The 'easy' VCE maths subject. Used to be for dumb people who cannot handle calculus, but now it is full of overachieving spesh kids trying to get 50.
person1: "I need to get 99.95 atar for med what subjects should I do? "
person2: "Do further maths for the perfect 50"
person1: "My parents won't let me do further tho, they think its for dumb people aiyaaaaaa"
Using simple math to solve something more advanced.
9x9=81
9x8=?
81-9=72
Dumb math
The calculus that goes on in the mind of an idiot that leads them to make bad decisions.
P1: "Wait, what possible reason could he have had to punch that cop? There's no possible permutation stemming from that that doesn't get him arrested, or possibly worse."
P2: "You're just not doing the idiot math here. Put yourself into the mindset of a 12th century peasant and you'll understand why he made the choice he did."
P1: "I still don't understand."
P2: "If he defeats the cop, then that guy can't tell him what to do anymore. He wins in his own mind, and that's all that's important."
P1: "Oh ok, I think I understand idiot math now."
When math collectibles (coins & stamps, vintage puzzles & toys, out-of-print books & classics, and antique measuring instruments & calculators), math cards, urban math definitions, IMO or Fields medals, NFTs, memes, and the like can be broken up into smaller parts that can be sold individually, thus making fractional ownership of both digital or physical assets possible.
Guesstimate how much the global tokenized math business could be worth if collectors started to trade their precious assets in the metaverse.
