Because that tends to simplify our computations.

But the computations get more and more intense.

Show the computations that lead to your answer.

These guys just really want to offload an electron.

So these guys really want to offload an electron. And who wants to take an electron?

Most simpler computations like 12 x 15 can be solved mentally using a variety of strategies.

Now that's the situation where one guy really wants to offload an electron, one guy really wants to take it.

Acceleration is also a vector quantity, but for the sake of our computations, we'll just say 10 meters per second.

Legacy trained us on how to do care for me at home so that they could offload the hospitals and clinics.

And finally, we may be able to use smart devices that will offload the work of the body and allow it to heal.

It's connected to, what I call, the principle of computational equivalence, which tells us that even incredibly simple systems can do computations as sophisticated as anything.

Then, I started drilling down, thinking about the computations I might want to do, trying to figure out what primitives they could be built up from and how they could be automated as much as possible.
