Have to agree with redditors on this one, being dumb is a disease.

Why do so many Americans struggle to make it but poor immigrants come here and can thrive? It's because their competition are Americans

One of the reasons i can't stop looking at social media is because the people there make me feel a lot better about myself. However, I would hardly call what i do 'thriving'.

ok but seriously reading the wiki article of dyscalculia really makes it seem like these people are actually mentally r-slurred?

Oh ffs this is just called being regarded.
It’s the same thing as calling a garbage man a sanitation engineer.

I've met people of dyscalcula before
25% are r-slurred, but the rest have personal problems like daydreaming in class, going home and playing video games instead of catching up, and then getting in a cycle of horrible anxiety.

My teachers told me I was SOOOO smart in grade school. I just didn't apply myself 
It turns out the only reason I've been an entry-level barista for the past seven years is that I have dyslexia, dyscalcula, autism, and mental r-slurdation.
You see, I truly am smart (my second grade teacher said so), but the reason I got bad grades and had a failure to launch is because I struggle with all of these diagnoses.

I knew a guy who had legit dyscalculia a while back and I can confirm that dude was actually fully fricking r-slurred. Like people would hang out with him and then ask him if he had a developmental disorder tier r-slurred. He would always get mad and go "just dyscalculia!"
- 54 Context
Idk the only person I’ve met with dyscalculia was a light sperg who ended up doing cs after brute forcing all his math classes. Really struggled with math but just used all his neurodivergent focus on it. God bless that man.

I guarantee you that the overwhelming majority of people posting in that thread about how bad they are at maths didn't apply themselves in maths class and never studied, just assuming that one day they would magically understand it.
I notice that a lot of kids who are "gifted" in English class don't find maths intuitive the way they do reading and writing, so they give up on it. Then later in life when they struggle with basic numeracy skills they just complain that they were taught wrong or have a mental illness. Of course, there are genuinely shit maths teachers out there, lots of them, but if kids who don't understand the material never ask for help and refuse to study then they aren't going to get anywhere even with the best teachers in the world.

I had no goddarn clue what I was doing in Partial Diff Eqs and got a B-
I couldn't reproduce anything from that class with a gun to my head

Diff Eqs was the first time in my entire lifetime I ever zoned out during a lecture and snapped back into it and was like "holy shit what" at what was on the board.

You vomit a bunch of Fourier series on the page and hope it gives you something reasonable eventually.

Yeah partial diff eqs are r-slurred and no engineers will deal with them unless they are fully forced to
Just make some assumptions, turn it into an ODE, then slap some error bars on it

Yeah I'm not that good
I haven't even had to do a derivative at work ever

Yeah I’m a software engineer now so I don’t even see equations anymore but I used to be a chemical engineer
Speaking from experience from the latter. But no one solves equations by hand anyways so most PDEs just get put into MatLab anyways. But back of the hand calcs yeah PDEs are a no go

Oh sweet I'm a chemist, I had to take it for quantum mechanics
- 7 Context
Yeah thankfully in chemistry there’s not many PDEs, like kinetics stuff is what I’m thinking of. I assume you don’t use quantum chem in your actual job right
- 6 Context
You should encounter PDEs as a software dev if you are doing any computational engineering.
But I agree, most PDEs that you encounter during your job are not solvable analytical, but numerical. So all the shit "learn to solve them" goes out the window.

if f(x,t) = X(x)T(t), 
f/x = f/ t must be equal to some constant 
. Then you just solve the two differential equations on their own, and solve for the value of . Ez pz.

Yeah, back in HS I was r-slured at maths I scored like 2/20 in tests and stuff and I just thought I was too stupid to do HS maths.
But then I still needed math to finish HS so I legit studied on a regular basis for 1 month and that is all it took for me to pass with an 11/20 in the national exams

Every problem is another mental illness. Like collecting badges lmao. Heaven forbid people take some responsibility or face the fact that they may need to work a tiny bit harder than others to be good at something.
Let me get this straight. In your tiny worldview - people acknowledging, accepting, and understanding their mental illness is a bad thing? It's not always solved by "working a tiny bit harder". Sometimes it's a disability/illness that requires learning how to approach something completely differently. People like you that assume that mental illness/disability is the evasion of responsibility and work is pure idiocy.
Having a mental disability isn't fun. Not being able to see things in the same way or approach problems in a way normative society dictates is acceptable isn't convenient. People like you that stigmatize mental issues are a huge contributor to this ridiculous perception.
At least educate yourself before making absurdly stupid statements like this.
educate yourself sweaty

not disagreeing with u but the post- its not even a mental illness. its neurological. they have it all wrong

what's the difference? I thought all mental illnesses were neurological.

idk, all I know is that apparently it's in the DSM-5 so it's a real thing.

nope. theres psychological (most mental illnesses), and neurological. for example schizophrenia and adhd are listed as both psychological and neurological because the symptoms fall into both categories, and are partly caused by structural issues in the brain
- 12 Context
Ambiguous, not well defined structural issues in the brain.

The psychological precedes the neurological. Neurological changes are a result of altered behavior/thinking aka psychology.
