@jenlowe I mean, it might fix me.

Linear algebra even more than most math feels like “Some of this is astonishing patterns in reality itself and other parts are arbitrary notational conventions that a guy named Lumbago Muttonchop von Hoobastank invented in 1852, and we’re not going to tell you which is which until you’re at the postgraduate level, teehee!”
