Even if, I think it's still a valid comparison as it's a rate.

I use Yank. I understand some Yanks think Yank only applies to New Englanders. I don't care, they're all Yanks.

My first calculus class was in 2018 or 2019 and before they taught us any of the derivative rules they showed us the first principles derivation, so the fact that they just skipped right to the shortcuts for you is wack. For us it was more of "this is how you find the equation for the slope of a line at any point. But guess what, here's some rules so you don't have to do this squeeze formula every time!"

Is there such a thing as unhinged benevolence? That's awesome

My parents are constantly pushing me to own a car.

I have a license because it is a convenient all-in-one piece of ID. I abstain from car ownership because cars fucking suck. They're expensive to buy, expensive to insure, expensive to maintain, expensive to run, expensive to drive, and you can't even use your phone* while going places. Car ownership is just overall a bad deal. I'm much happier taking public transit, even if it sucks ass and is twice as slow to get anywhere.

*If you unironically counter this point you should be prevented from ever getting behind a wheel for the rest of your life. Fuck you for putting my and other people's lives in danger for your own convenience.
