    this program would be so much harder without something to check my answers and understanding.

    Do students these days not have study buddies?

      Not when you’re in an online program and have to do it fully alone. Even when I was in a traditional situation I always had a job and never could do study groups. It’s specifically why I never studied stem previously.

        You know you could also just like… Do research, like you’re expected to do and is how people actually learn, but I understand that’s hard and nobody has time for that. I guess you could also ask the local drunk to proofread your homework and get an answer just as likely to be correct as an AI

        Ah yes “looking people in the eyes while talking”, famously something actually important and meaningful and not just literally the most well-known neurotypical “if you don’t follow the expected social rules you are Wrong” demand…

          Yeah dude that’s how norms work.

          If you’re staring off into space and can’t talk directly to someone, you need to learn that skill.

          Like, this is common sense.

            Bold of you to assume “looking someone in the eye” and “talking directly” are the same thing!

            Have you MET autistic people?
