I still use my AlphaSmart Neo. Its a smple portable word processor, popular in schools in the 2000s. Small LCD screen, Full keyboard, and runs forever on AA batteries. No apps, notifications, or distractions, just turn it on and write.

Great article! I’ve always been self-conscious about my weakness in math, and I’ve recently decided to really focus on improving, so this article came at the perfect time for me. I also think that here in the U.S., schools have been struggling with math education for a while, so hopefully this will make people take notice.
