@lanodan I think I used to invent weird units like “kilometer per hour per second” for acceleration. And probably many other optimisations, sometimes without me even realising that was not a common way to do stuff.
I am aware of at least one Math teacher who very explicitly told me that I should not pay attention in order not to break her class :-D
@lanodan Reminds me of that one time when the Physics teacher explained some basic mechanics, it seemed unplausible to me, so I brought some wooden blocks (for toddlers) and disproved her the next class. And demanded explanation, ofc :-)
@ledoian haha yeah, that one I can see. Meanwhile literally the first class I attended in High-School was around Flatland and so things like 4D geometry and other maths. Rip people's minds. :D
@lanodan Oh, right, I almost forgot about Flatland! But I only tried to explain that to my classmates (usually on the train), not the teachers. Few of them were actually interested :-) And that was around 13yo :-)
@lanodan@icedquinn I might not have finished it, really. But it was nice :-) (Also, quite hard, because I decided that I will just read the English original and not a version in a language I can speak fluently, at that age).
