No comments? Okay I'll add one :) I'm guessing this was one of your very first pieces, when you were active on Twitter and your substack consequently had less visibility. I had no idea I use the box method in my head for larger numbers. I just knew that I visualize numbers. This would reflect your opinion that the methods were devised by math-lovers who likely do the same thing.

I just tested myself and got it wrong lol. I was off by a couple of tens. I got the products correct but incorrectly added them. Guess I need to practice more! Didn't you used to do a daily math challenge or link to one? Possibly from your Twitter days.
