      @MathProfPeter @SeanFitzMath @sbagley @virtualcourtney I actually had a student call me out in that nit once. I think I basically said that if he was skeptical, he could always check his work afterwards. Same with complicated integration techniques: it's okay if you think it's magic, as long as you're willing to take d/dx to check.

    @MathProfPeter @SeanFitzMath @sbagley @virtualcourtney Integration by oracle: get @sagemath to supply the answer, then show how to verify that its derivative is the original function.
