In addition to the other great answers, you can really drive the intuition about how wrong this is in students/kids with simple examples:
x+2/x+1 – cancel the x incorrectly and this always equals 2, which should fail the smell check immediately, verify with a couple values of x.
x+1/x cancel the x incorrectly and undefined.
Windows 11 PCs are up to 2.3x faster than Windows 10 PCs
Based on testing performed by Microsoft in December 2024 using Geekbench 6 Multi-core score comparing a selection of Windows 10 PCs with Intel Core 6th, 8th, and 10th generation processors and Windows 11 PCs with Intel Core 12th and 13th generation processors. Performance will vary significantly by device and with settings, usage and other factors.

Sometimes the food can do it too – I scratched my last nonstick pan with a silicone spatula because I ground black pepper on my eggs and caught a craggy piece just right while flipping. After being super careful for months! So irritated.
I don’t get posts like this – his expression matches nearly every other 40+ white dude minding his own business that I’ve ever seen. These pics/posts have strong “you should smile more” energy
Angela Collier has some great thoughts about the shortcomings of scientific communication with the public in general – I think this is the video. Can’t recommend her enough, wonderful breakdowns of very complex topics in a way that doesn’t make me feel dumb.
I know we’re being hyperbolic here but hard disagree – how awful would that be for everyone on-board? And absolutely not worth the damage to public infrastructure. There’s an established procedure for dealing with blockages, and I hope that process irreparably damages the truck and results in a hefty fine for the owner
