It was embarrassing when I posed my own question to him, 10 + 5 - 1 - 4 + 5, and he answered 15 before I could tell if he was right. I want a refund on my college tuition.
I have literally hit my forehead with the palm of my right hand. Yes, learning to add and subtract single-digit numbers very fast is a critical aspect of college education, and if a college fails to impart this vital skill on a student, then the entire thing was pointless.
Your headline is wrong, OP. The americunt in question (and probably you too) most definitely doesn't realize how stupid he is.

I remember I could do fast multiplication in my head when I was in 3rd grade. My classmates were dazzled. Of course it's just a useless trick. I'm in a university now and I'm more efficient in learning a few hours in the morning than some of my retarded colleagues due in their frequent all-nighters.
sweet i will have an army of robots in NO TIME ! now to kidnap 100 Chinese children and make them work for me until their eyes explode... or they commit suicide like at the apple manufacturing plant...

Totally agree! We, humans, do arithmetic much better than computers! We can check that input data makes sense, unlike their computer that will hapily divide infinity by zero!
If somebody says to me 8+3-4+5 I can figure out the answer is 13 instantly because I'm adding and subtracting as they speak. But if I read the problem I can't answer instantly because I have to feed it back to myself. That is the reason the intro of this article is now known as a 'fail'.

yeah that's what all losers say! just admit, these autistic wunderkinds are smarter than you.
Is it true, that americans removed the study of multiplication, division and GCD alghorithms from schools, but left rote memorization of multiplication and trigonometry tables? How are you better than chinese robots?

Slugger - are you an idiot? No, that would be an insult to idiots. You have a self-indulgent ghetto mentality. Personally I hate idiots like you! you will die a crime victim, from health issues, and other life and death situations because you think the world revolves you. May you choke on you "autism" PLEASE!
