IDK. I can't help but wonder if a walk through a reasoning process like this would have
helped me at 17 or so, fresh off geometry, trig, algebra, etc and headed into calculus.
Complex numbers were largely opaque, despite some exposure. I don't think they clarified
until college. Add in the ability to raise the temperature parameter, iterate a couple
times, and it may well have been helpful ... more so than my "teachers" who
barely understood what they were teaching and my calculus teacher who seemed to believe
she could telepathically push things into my head.
But I *definitely* think a few breaks in the reasoning to play with the dog or
argue about whether pineapple or anchovies belong on pizza would have helped me
pay attention longer. >8^D

Inference was running slowly. So I decided to see if the GPU was actually
working. It wasn't. So I had to shut everything down and restart the container.
Then to test, I thought I'd ask Qwen3 a simple reasoning question. The attached
is the result.
OMG. Please think more quietly. I feel like I'm at the pub sitting next to one
of those super talkative people who just get worse as they drink.
