Disoraginized - yes. But why does that make you feel stupid?

Do you think I created blazingly clear notations when I just started out? You seem to have unrealistic expectations of how successful the first attempts of a beginner should be.

And you're actually doing far better then most beginners. Your notation is surprisingly powerful, for a guy who just decided to play a bit and see "how high I can go". So you really don't have anything to feel bad about.

And you most definitely are not stupid. I've seen stupid here plenty of times, and I know how it looks like. Your blog posts ain't it.
