I watched a young employee at a tackle and bait shop use a calculator to multiply
10 x .25
That was sad and dishearteningIf you don't care where you are, you are not lost.

Yea, the younger generation may stumble around doing math but ask them anything about computing and it is a different story. Ask an oldie like myself about computing and you likely will get a glazed look back. Times have changed.

Today, headed to my local Pharmacy expecting a massive line-up for people that had booked appointments for the Astra Vaccine, I was the only person there....
Got my vaccine, another guy around my age was waiting, said the same thing, where is everybody?
Well, got mine today, no problem, they automatically booked my next appointment for the booster.
My wife is a nurse, chaos currently in the hospitals, there having to use some Dr's as ICU "nurses", wife is deployed again to a more serious medical ward (from Day Treatment a year ago).
Gotta say, feel relieved to have received the vaccine.

I'm 69... a retired GNUnix sysadmin. I, too, love computers, but am "lukewarm" wrt math. I was a terrible math student in high school... failed 2nd year algebra... geometry, too. Developed an interest in math while in the US Army, stationed at Fort Benning (USAIS, Weapons Dep't.) -- there was a need for an instructor to learn artillery survey, and it fell on me. Neat... it got me back on-track. Originally Posted by Phrank
