Hype for the Future 9A: What to Expect from the YouTube Channels

On Days 7 and 8 of the 284-day “Hype for the Future” series, novaTopFlex has exported numerous mathematical graphs in PNG format as follows (as futoTopFlex):

Today, I had to think of Joltima, an Ultima-like RPG that we played on our Z80-based Texas Instruments TI-82 graphic calculators. I fell into a rabbit hole, starting to disassemble stuff...

Math teachers used to require expensive graphing calculators because they had advanced capabilities. Now we require expensive graphing calculators because they can't run photomath. The calculators are still expensive, though, for no reason at all.

> "TI Education announced that the most recent OS for the TI-83 Premium CE removes the ability for the calculator to run any Assembly (ASM) code. With the decision planned to go global, this means that any program written in ASM or C will not run on any CE operating on the newest TI OS 5.5.1 or higher."
