Re-enter the slide rule age.

Those who know how to use them will be in high demand.

I know someone who used it on a no calculators allowed exam in college for calculus.

The TA administering the exam was taken aback that she knew what one was and how to use it and said that it said no calculators not no slide rules.

So she did.

“Slide rules”? Meh. I don’t trust high-tech computing machines like that. I’ll stick with my abacus, thank ye kindly.
