Taylor is a bastard, and his series is making my life hell.

there are things that look cooler than they probably are.
Yeah, Taylor series seem so cool at first, what with knowing an entire function if you know the value of all the derivatives at one point, but approximating solutions to Laplace’s equation and memorizing error functions for numerical methods suck.
Holy fuck, my brain just broke. First post in forever and this is what you bring me?!
