Yeah bro, same for probably the majority of this site that write software for a living and/or hobby.

Sorry I’m not entirely sure what you’re trying to say

How good were you at those “A is to B as C is to D” SAT questions?

No need to be rude. I didn’t want to misinterpret when responding.

I can see how what is happening to mathematicians is similar to what is happening to coding.

I’m not sure what your broader point is? Mathematicians shouldn’t be upset? Coders should? Something else?

The point is that nearly every white collar worker is in the same boat right now, and the majority of them probably have already had much more profound impacts to their fields. So yeah, we can certainly imagine what it’s like for mathematicians.

Okay. I agree with all that you said in your latest comment.

From your first comment it seemed like you were disagreeing with me but I’m not sure how.

That’s why I asked for clarification.

Edit: BTW I’m a web developer and designer, Not a mathematician
