    I remember needing to understand some math concept for some reason so I googled it and clicked on the Wikipedia link. When I realized I was too stupid for that I went back and clicked on the “math is fun” link. It explained it perfectly. Thank you math is fun.

      Wikipedia is really bad at explaining things, it’s written in a way that you have to deeply know all of the surrounding topics to understand what is going on

      I used to think that it’s too hard to set up a suspension on a car because the Wikipedia pages are all weird and undescriptive, but it turns out it’s very simple for something like a double wishbone, there are even visual calculators out there

      I hear you with this, I’ve ended up doing a distance learning Maths degree just so I can understand all the Wikipedia squiggles
