Highly recommend the documentary A Wing and a Prayer.

There’s probably a better topic for this, this man just lost his own son in the war and is already visiting other injured soldiers:

This doesn't bother me so much as my 3rd grader still coming home with HW questions that ask him to estimate sums. They already taught well past that, and he does the exact math just fine. Why would you need to estimate after you already know how to do the math precisely?

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

not taking an opinion on core math idk what it is
But I happen to have terrible estimation skills
I don’t know what it is but it’d be so nice to have   :-\
Maybe all it takes is literally to read more about them but yea
