The mathematical hunger games have claimed another victim! Dad's not winning—he's being consumed by the computational apocalypse. Surrounded by MATLAB, Wolfram, LaTeX, Desmos, Matcad, and Sublime Text 3, he's descended into the ninth circle of numerical hell that every engineer and scientist knows too well. That moment when your code breaks, your equations mock you, and your will to live is inversely proportional to your debugging time. The child's innocent "Dad are u winning?" is the universe's cruelest joke. No child, Dad isn't winning. Dad is discovering why math was invented by ancient civilizations as a sophisticated form of torture.
