The biggest danger, that of losing oneself, can pass off in the world as quietly as if it were nothing; every other loss, an arm, a leg, five dollars, a wife, etc. is bound to be noticed.

The best teachers are on the Internet. The best books are on the Internet. The best peers are on the Internet.

@vijaytrive35307 @maxdesalle I made a project of the book on cgpt, and upload pics of pages in it and query it voice-mode. Its like having a study partner.

This book took away my fear of math. Very clear, simple, foundational ... fun as I am reading it with AI . I've even been using it as bed-time read (the book itself says so😇)
Thanks @maxdesalle for recommending

@lolleka @maxdesalle haha. I lay down and read. Mostly the parts I have already read.

Fences, bells, asking permission to pee, yard time, random locker search, confiscation of items, walking in single line and even the same tasteless soy meat.

Schools and prisons have evolved convergently: Two systems using the same adaptations to solve the same problem.

As tech becomes cheaper, making excuses is becoming costlier.

This book took my math fear away. So good and clear to read (easier still now that we have AI)
I'm even using it as a bed-time read (the book itself says so😇). I've not completed it, but am finding it very interesting.

@Math_files They could all pass the calculus exam despite lacking basic knowledge of calculus.

(All except Feynman.)

Abolish maths exams. Let people spend that time and effort learning instead. Learning something they want to know.

It is so inspiring to read about how many great mathematicians were self-taught, faced hardships and still made their mark in a field that is so feared today. And many of them read and thought widely.
Humans have always been universal explainers.

Acting and not expecting results is like pulling a leg on missing the football while trying to shoot it.
