I am terrible with remembering a bunch of facts, but I&#x27;m pretty good at working things out from basic principles. It&#x27;s funny because many of my friends look at me figuring something out from basic principles and they think it looks like so much work – then they go back to taking a few hours to memorise things they could just as well work out from basic principles! Who&#x27;s doing the work now?<p>I guess we both are, only I postpone it to when I really need it.
