BASICS OF LIMITS Part-01 | LIMITS BEGINNER'S COURSE | FULL PREP FROM BASICS

[domoz-writes]

Am thinking about non transmigration au where SY discovers his sexuality via 400k of unposted Mobing...

My thoughts are as such:

Right before the end of PIDW Airplane posts an update that basically says "Hey due to a mix of health and personal reasons I won't be able to post for a while sorry!!"

SY, who is in the hospital with horrible food poisoning isn't happy about this!! Something like this right after a cliffhanger??? Really??? And he's not got a lot else to do In the hospital, so he kind of... accidentally... doxxes Airplane...

He was just looking for an account that he thought that hack author would check since he's obviously not looking at zhongdian, honest!!! But it turns out that this person lives somewhat nearby where SY does and is much cuter than he expected some hack author to be

So he maybe goes to wander around the area (its nearby!! He's allowed to go on walks isn't he!!) And as a matter of fact finds Airplane!! Right on the sidewalk!!!

And starts off with a rather aggressive introduction before realizing that his favorite shitty erotica author 1) has obviously healing electrocution burns, 2) is?? Way too skinny? Like on par with SY himself and hes chronically ill, 3) is standing outside a social services office and 4) appears to be carrying everything he owns with him on his back

He immediately feels so guilty that he pivots from angry ranting to guiltily offering him a place to stay or, he can at least pay for a hotel room?? SQH does a very brief amount of mental calculus on if he'd rather deal with government bureaucracy or getting kidnapped and axe murdered by a crazy fan, shrugs, and chooses the latter.

When SQH point out that he can't pay SY back in any way SY tells him that he can pay him back by writing a better novel!!! SQH teases him about being a devoted fan and offers to let him read some unpublished extras and backstory stuff (like SJ & YQY backstory, that sort of thing). Predictably, SY likes this a lot more and complains that it wasn't in the novel, in turn Airplane laments that if more readers were like SY he wouldn't be in this situation in thr first place.

Related: SQH can't update because his laptop is fried. SY claims "to know a guy". SY does not know a guy, but he has money, so... (the files are fine and saved in like 3 different cloud locations, Airplane already learned that lesson)

But PIDW ended on a cliffhanger! SY doesn't want to wait!!! So he bothers Airplane until he finds out that Airplane actually haS two endings waiting in the wings and he still hasn't decided which one to post. Reason being: he's kinda 80% done with writing a sequel of sorts, but he knows if he posts it it will basically get his zhongdian account nuked and remove his chances of making money from it ever again, because the current readers of PIDW would HATE IT

Sy eventually argues that *he's* a reader and that Airplane should let *him* read it and if he deems it good then it's certainly good enough to post!! SQH finds this very funny because SY is not the average PIDW at all, but decides to allow it

The sequel in question is a slow burn romance from Mobei-Juns point of view that leans heavily into drama and political intrigue. He stands by Binghes side and quietly pines and remains loyal and Binghe slowly discovers that devoted loyalty and understanding is actually the thing that makes him happy (vs empty relationships with his many wives)

(Mobei Jun is written in a very grey-ace way, not understanding the carnal desires of other demons but would do anything for Junshang if asked etc etc)

SY ADORES this book and thinks that if it were posted online it would be his #1 favorite. He really relates to MBJ as a protagonist and Binghe is still the best!! And then he is completely blindsided when the two of them have tender emotional gay sex

Being SY, he absolutely tries to justify this to himself as like, aha,what a clever subversion...! You can tell because this sex scene was way better written then all the ones in PIDW, but obviously they aren't gay (He is too flustered to bring this up to Airplane in person despite having no problem doing so with the het stuff)

The novel ends with, like, Bingge sealing away Xin mo and promising to be just as loyal to his general as MBJ is to him, and is very obviously romantic to the point that even SY can't miss it. So he goes back and rereads it to make sure it was actually meant to be a romance (...danmei) novel all along. And then again just to make sure and he's kinda losing his mind a little because he really related to MBJ in this book and... MBJ had gay sex??

Of course you also have the "and they were roommates" situation going on at the same time. The rituals are intricate. Airplane is aware that's he's giving SY some kind of sexuality crisis but he has no idea how intense! He's genuinely fine having an unrequited crush on SY. Homoerotically teasing him is fun and it doesn't have to go further than that! Hes not really in a place to be doing any dating anyways and bro-cuddles have him covered!

Side note: I like the idea of SY being very proud when Airplane gains weight bc its Physical proof that he's taking good care of his friend and also maybe catering to what he finds attractive

When SY finally gets to the point where he asks about his sexuality, Airplane pretty much gives him the "I don't see a point in labels, I just like who I like" speech.

SY who loves categorizing and labeling things: can you do that?? Is that allowed??????

He then gets pointed to Baby's First LGBTQ resource website, and after determining that he's maybe not gay but maybe is something else immediately jumps into googling "how to date your best friend who is also your roommate"

[theapollospectrohelioscopic]

Hello. This is an introduction post.

I am TheApolloSpectrohelioscopic, but I mainly go by the names Apollo and Spectro.

Other names I go by include:

Apollon

Mind

Apollinariya

Polina

Helio

Helios

Lux

Sun

Xanthus

Ash/ASh/ASH/Ashs/AShs

Basically any name related to the sun or to sunshine or to light or to Mind from CCCC

Some names related to the colour blue or to the colour yellow

Honestly I don’t really care what you call me just don’t be a third derivative of displacement

Well, also make sure it is obvious that you are referring to me.

Oh and if you are my irl friend you can call me Lemonade but only if you are my irl friend. Or, well, if you are in on the joke you can call me Lemonade.

I use all pronouns.

I am a minor.

My birthday is the tenth of July.

I am primarily in the CCCC fandom (if you couldn’t already tell), but I am also in the OSC and Hermitcraft/Life Series fandoms as well. I also might somewhat be in the CRK and PJSK fandoms as well.

Yes, spectrohelioscopic is a real word (at least, according to some sources, autocorrect says it isn’t a real word).

I have diagnosed ADHD and autism.

I am genuinely baffled by the fact that there are people who hate Mind.

I am not the greatest at drawing, but I might occasionally post drawings of primarily Mind, but on occasion other characters.

Aquatic creatures are cool, my favourite being squids, octopodes (yes that is a correct pluralisation of octopus), and jellyfishes.

Foxes are my favourite animal. Fun fact: A group of foxes is called a skulk.

I live in Australia.

I prefer cats to dogs.

I have way too many aus that I never write stuff down about.

I suck at telling if questions are directed towards me.

I may ramble at any time.

My favourite movie is Colorful Stage! The Movie: A Miku Who Can’t Sing.

I fucking adore Mind.

If my tags ever seem to not fit it is because I don’t know what tags I should use and because I honestly don’t really care.

I have an overabundance of Mind headcanons, and very few for Heart and Soul.

I enjoy mathematics, and think calculus is cool.

I have a quite spectacular vocabulary, but if you were to give me a vocabulary test, I would most likely do not so spectacularly, for those tests use words like “jocular”, whereas I know words like “idolatry”, “autophagy”, and “defenestration”.

Despite said good vocabulary, I often use plain and ordinary language.

Anyways that’s enough random facts about me.

DNI: Basic stuff I guess I don’t know all the different words and I also don’t want this to take up 17 duotrigintillion rows.

I will not answer donation asks!

List of tags I may use and what they mean:

“uh oh apollos rambling again” - I go on a ramble about something.

”tag rambling” - I ramble in the tags.

“apollo rambles somewhat” - I go on a short ramble, one that isn’t full length.

“oh yeah i reblog stuff sometimes” - I reblog something.

“oh wait polls are a thing” - I make a poll.

More tags may be added to this list, and I may not be consistent with my usage of these tags.

[anremithrl]

I've TAed a number of math classes. And I've seen a lot of students come at math with this... axiom, that they are bad at it. They already feel like they're going to lose before they enter the room. Especially with people taking some math GE they feel like they're going to struggle through, barely pass, and not use.

And to be fair, I don't know why the university mandates calculus as a GE. Is it that hard? No. Not really. Like... most things in anyone's major are going to be harder.

But, what does a history major need with calculus?

It's not a relevant skill, and especially the way I've seen it taught, it's not shown as particularly interesting. It's taught as calculations, to the point where I've met well-meaning people that ask if I've calculated anything interesting recently because they have not even the slightest knowledge of what mathematics becomes. They aren't taught ideas. They are taught disconnected formulas and expected to apply them blindly. And then what happens is that wihh to put a fundamental understanding, they get lost on edge cases. Not because they're bad at math. Though the more clever ones can figure out edge cases, the real problem is the lesson is this large task of memorisation that misses this edge case. So they feel like math sucks. And have not the slightest idea what it is about.

And how would they? Math teaching... isn't great. I had a lot of awesome teachers as I went higher into mathematics, but very few ones in lower mathematics. This isn't just a problem with mathematics. Basically any GE is a massive class with hundreds of students, most of which are studying things completely orthogonal to the class and have next to no interest in them. And the only way to grade such a large class is by rote, oversimplified, contrived tasks. I wouldn't want to teach a GE for that reason. I imagine a lot of professors feel the same way.

There's a few alternative classes they can take instead of calculus. I happened to see that there's an introduction to logic there on the list and I decided to nose in and see what was being taught, and it was a rudimentary introduction to proofs and sentential logic, along with some fallacies and whatnot. Some amount of hand-waviness was going on but it seemed a much better beginning to mathematics than calculus. Calculus is a very important foundation to engineers and physicists and anyone going into stem, but logic feels... really fundamental? Like, just basic logical reasoning, that we do every day, formalised just a bit. It gives the students confidence in their skills, and a good foundation for the formalisation required for mathematics. And it felt more creative and less rote. And probably more connected to reality than calculus. And even if I don't like applications... a lot of people do. A lot of credit needs to go to the professor. But it did serve as an example that a large GE class can be interesting. And that calculus is a terrible travesty we inflict on future historians.

There are so many problems with education. And we often forget to teach people math is very much a creative act.

How to learn physics as an adult

I'm creating this post in response to some posts @un-ionizetheradlab made the other day, but I'm creating this as a guide to anyone this is relevant for. It's going to be a long post, but pick and choose what to do from this list based on what works for you and what your goals are, whether it's just to gain basic scientific literacy or become a physicist (or something in between). Also remember that it's a journey not a sprint, so it's ok if you don't understand physics at first (and if it makes you feel better, physics was one of my worst subjects in school and now I have a master's degree in physics). Without further ado:

First Thing's First

There are some mathematical methods you need to learn to understand physics; there's no way around this:

Vectors: This is the most important thing to learn for physics, how to use vectors. It seemed every mathematics or physics class I took in my first year of my physics degree started with an introduction to vectors, and for good reason. You can learn about how vectors work on Khan Academy for free.

Matrices and Tensors: Once you've mastered vectors, learn about matrices and linear algebra, and perhaps go on to learning about tensors once you're at it. You can at least get the basics about matrices from Khan Academy, but you might want to invest in a linear algebra textbook.

Calculus: I said vectors are the most important thing to learn for physics, but it actually might be calculus. If you have absolutely no previous knowledge of calculus, you can watch the video "Calculus at a Fifth Grade Level" on YouTube; it's a little more advanced than fifth grade level but can give you a good feel for what calculus is about. Once you've done that, there are multiple calculus courses available on Khan Academy. There's also a calculus course available on Brilliant, but it might only be available through the paid version.

Ordinary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems: You don't need to learn these right away, but if you want to do physics at the upper undergraduate level, you'll need to learn these at some point.

2. Learning to Think Like a Scientist

Some suggestions of apps and things to watch if you don't know much about science so you can start thinking like a scientist:

SciShow: If you don't know much science at all, SciShow on YouTube is a good place to start, I used to watch it and as I recall it's more focused on life sciences but there's some physics videos there, too.

Ciencias De La Ciencia: This is sort of a Spanish version of SciShow but it's more physics-focused. At least some of the videos have subtitles if you don't know Spanish.

Cosmos: If you haven't seen Cosmos (either the old version with Carl Sagan or the new version with Neil DeGrasse Tyson), it's very good and at least some of the episodes are available for free online. It's more pop-science and history of science than actual science content, but at least they make a point of using anecdotes from the history of science to illustrate how the scientific method works.

Sabine Hossenfelder: Highly recommend her YouTube channel; she's one of the most intellectually honest scientific communicators in the world nowadays. Her videos are a good illustration of how to think like a scientist. She also has a blog and has written a few books.

Brilliant: This is an app with mathematics and science courses that places an emphasis on problem-solving. Most of the courses are only available on the paid version of the app (but you should be able to get a discount on it if you're subscribed to any mainstream science YouTubers), but even the free version gives you access to a few courses, plus a forum where people post problems. I had this app back in the day and liked solving problems on the forum (no idea if it's changed since then).

3. Books to Study

If you're committed to learning physics you should study from some textbooks:

Physics LibreTexts: This is a whole collection of university-level physics textbooks for free online. It's an invaluable resource for learning physics. Use it to learn classical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, modern physics (but don't jump into quantum mechanics straight away if you're just starting out in physics).

Landau and Lifshitz Course of Theoretical Physics: This was the physics school curriculum in the Soviet Union; it's a little dated now but if you're just learning the basics it can't be beat given the excellent pedagogy. It's easy enough to find copies of it online, especially on Russian sites. Most if not all of the textbooks in the series have been translated into English, but if you know any Russian, the original is easy to follow.

Introduction to Electrodynamics by David J. Griffiths: Once you've learned mechanics, modern physics and some electricity and magnetism get yourself a copy of this textbook; you can get used editions on Amazon for a reasonable enough price. American physics majors are obsessed with this textbook, refer to it as the Bible, and for good reason.

Every Life is on Fire by Jeremy England: This isn't a textbook, but reading it took me back to my statistical mechanics class and it's way more readable than any actual statmech textbook so if you are interested in learning statmech, this book is a good start. It's actually a general reading book about England's ideas about the origin of life, interspersed with some parallels to the Hebrew Bible because England is also a rabbi. He actually has some interesting ideas about the philosophy of science, though they can be difficult to get behind, so if you're interested go listen to a podcast where they interview him (obligatory I don't condone the Kahaneist politics he sometimes promotes).

4. Learn About Research and Experiments

Physics is an experimental science, so expose yourself to some experiments:

Look for PDFs of high school physics labs online. You can find some for free and it should be cheap enough to do the experiments at home.

Read scientific papers on topics that interest you to try and understand what's happening today. If you find them difficult to understand, try reading older papers and go from there, for example, in undergrad I did a research internship relating to neutron stars, but I found some of the recent scientific papers difficult to understand, but reading the 1938 paper "On Massive Neutron Cores" by Oppenheimer and Volkoff helped me to understand neutron stars better. (When I returned to some of those same papers during my master's degree, I was proud to have understood them well.)

5. Take University-Level Physics Courses

You can take university-level physics courses without committing to a degree:

Search online for MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses). You can find MOOCs on multiple sites about many physics topics, and they're often free (sometimes you have to pay for them).

If you live in the United States, you can take physics classes at your local community college.

You can enroll in online physics courses through Open University, based in London but you can take the courses from anywhere. It's expensive, but you pay by the credit so you don't have to pay for a whole year of tuition if you're just taking one course.

If you happen to have free time in the summer and the money for it, many American universities (and elite British universities) offer summer courses that one can enroll in even if they don't attend the university. These are usually in-person classes.

6. Get a Physics Degree

Getting a physics degree is ultimately the only course of action if you've decided to become a physicist, the recommended course of action if you're ultimate goal is a PhD in the history of science or philosophy of science, and a good idea if learning physics has made you want a career in science communication of science education. There's no shame in being a non-traditional age student; in both my bachelor's and master's degree in physics I knew students who were non-traditional age. The downside of this is that it's a bad financial decision to get a degree, especially if it's a second bachelor's degree, but there are ways to lessen the financial burden of a degree:

If you attend an American university with American tuition, you can usually get an on-campus job, though that's pocket change compared to the costs of tuition.

On the bright side, if you already have a bachelor's degree you can probably get credit for general requirements at American universities, so a second bachelor's degree in physics might not take long.

You can also do a part-time degree while you work at many universities.

Just some general advice, if you go the American university route go to a university with a Society of Physics Students and get a student membership in American Physical Society; you get all kinds of benefits like access to Physics Today magazine, scholarships, internships, conferences, an honour society induction.

All that said, it's difficult to attend an American university without losing money. For that matter it's difficult to attend any university in the world without losing money, but you can lessen that burden by going to a country where university is cheaper. There the limiting factor is going to be language; although English is the international language of physics and the medium of most postgraduate physics degrees around the world, physics bachelor's degrees are usually in the local language. Some possible exceptions I found to this, for those who are not fluent in a language other than English:

Apparently there are world-class English-medium physics degree programmes in France? I figure there must be some kind of catch given the way the French are about their language, but given the high research output France has in physics, this is worth getting into.

There are English-medium physics bachelor's degrees in the Czech Republic, and tuition there is pretty affordable (for the English-language degrees; it's free for Czech-language degrees if you happen to be fluent in Czech). I don't know Czechia to have a lot of physics research output today, but back in the day Prague was a major centre of scientific research (Einstein briefly lived and worked as a physics professor in Prague), so it you're goal is to do a PhD in the history of science...I'm just gonna say that there's an English-medium physics bachelor's degree programme at Charles University and you'd have time when you're not studying to explore the city and it's history (but you should learn some Czech if you're going to live there).

University degrees in South Africa are usually English-medium, and tuition there is pretty affordable. There's also a fair amount of research output from South African universities. (Though I understand not wanting to live in South Africa.)

18 day habit tracker

since the year started, days are passing by and sure I'm doing alright and getting stuff done but lately it just. feels like I'm whiling away a lot of my time which which I could spend learning or doing a lot of things that I've kept shelved for years. I want to make better use of my days and I want to understand how to kind of... develop the intrinsic motivation to improve my productivity. additionally, I also need to do things to take better care of my help given the harsh weather and my ankle (im)mobility.

so I've decided to spend the next 18days trying to be more conscious of how I'm spending my time and also trying to push myself little by little. in this eighteen days I want to figure out what my limits are (vs what I think my limits are) and I also want to understand how to stay consistent and maintain the momentum I need to keep going. eighteen seems like a small enough number to start with; from some surface web scouring it seems like 18days is the minimum number of time it takes to develop a habit. and coincidentally enough it's my birthday in exactly 18days so it seems like a good place to start

to track

personal goals

🧮 relearning math my relationship with mathematics has been quite messy since junior college and it has only worsened through the past four years of engineering(with the introduction of multivariate calculus and Laplace transforms and whatnot)... it feels kind of late and embarrassing to start now but I really want to understand math better and enjoy doing it and now is a good time to face my fear/discomfort and start over at the very basics. I'm gonna start with precalculus and linear algebra

💃 dancing I used to dance all the time as a kid and then... i don't know what happened... as a lover of kpop choreographies it's heartbreaking to realize I haven't learnt nearly as many dances as I'd have liked to. The year started off pretty strong but then my ankle got in the way and... yeah... I want to get back into dancing both as a means to improve my mobility and as a means of exercise, and also because I enjoy dancing in gen... and four to five days seems like good enough time to learn a single dance so i hope to learn the choreography of atleast 3-4 dances in these 18days

✏ art I have wanted to learn drawing for years now but for some reason I just never seem to get around to it (the 'some reason' being my impatience and inability to accept that I'm actually a beginner) but yknow what. if I'm anyway going to feel bad about how poor I am at drawing, I might as well do it while drawing poorly instead of trying to avoid it. I've decided to use this youtube playlist as my starting point

🍳 cooking for someone who is planning to live abroad and live alone I can't cook to save my life, but putting that aside, the main reason I want to cook is that a lot of my favourite regional cuisine is centered towards dishes for the winter and I want to learn to make tasty + nutritional food suitable for this summer heat without resorting to consuming excessively sugared juices and soda in copious amounts

yeah. day1 starts today. I hope it works out. my weekly tracker and my work tracker will also be updated in parallel

The Philosophy of Arithmetic

The philosophy of arithmetic examines the foundational, conceptual, and metaphysical aspects of arithmetic, which is the branch of mathematics concerned with numbers and the basic operations on them, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Philosophers of arithmetic explore questions related to the nature of numbers, the existence of mathematical objects, the truth of arithmetic propositions, and how arithmetic relates to human cognition and the physical world.

Key Concepts:

The Nature of Numbers:

Platonism: Platonists argue that numbers exist as abstract, timeless entities in a separate realm of reality. According to this view, when we perform arithmetic, we are discovering truths about this independent mathematical world.

Nominalism: Nominalists deny the existence of abstract entities like numbers, suggesting that arithmetic is a human invention, with numbers serving as names or labels for collections of objects.

Constructivism: Constructivists hold that numbers and arithmetic truths are constructed by the mind or through social and linguistic practices. They emphasize the role of mental or practical activities in the creation of arithmetic systems.

Arithmetic and Logic:

Logicism: Logicism is the view that arithmetic is reducible to pure logic. This was famously defended by philosophers like Gottlob Frege and Bertrand Russell, who attempted to show that all arithmetic truths could be derived from logical principles.

Formalism: In formalism, arithmetic is seen as a formal system, a game with symbols governed by rules. Formalists argue that the truth of arithmetic propositions is based on internal consistency rather than any external reference to numbers or reality.

Intuitionism: Intuitionists, such as L.E.J. Brouwer, argue that arithmetic is based on human intuition and the mental construction of numbers. They reject the notion that arithmetic truths exist independently of the human mind.

Arithmetic Truths:

A Priori Knowledge: Many philosophers, including Immanuel Kant, have argued that arithmetic truths are known a priori, meaning they are knowable through reason alone and do not depend on experience.

Empiricism: Some philosophers, such as John Stuart Mill, have argued that arithmetic is based on empirical observation and abstraction from the physical world. According to this view, arithmetic truths are generalized from our experience with counting physical objects.

Frege's Criticism of Empiricism: Frege rejected the empiricist view, arguing that arithmetic truths are universal and necessary, which cannot be derived from contingent sensory experiences.

The Foundations of Arithmetic:

Frege's Foundations: In his work "The Foundations of Arithmetic," Frege sought to provide a rigorous logical foundation for arithmetic, arguing that numbers are objective and that arithmetic truths are analytic, meaning they are true by definition and based on logical principles.

Russell's Paradox: Bertrand Russell's discovery of a paradox in Frege's system led to questions about the logical consistency of arithmetic and spurred the development of set theory as a new foundation for mathematics.

Arithmetic and Set Theory:

Set-Theoretic Foundations: Modern arithmetic is often grounded in set theory, where numbers are defined as sets. For example, the number 1 can be defined as the set containing the empty set, and the number 2 as the set containing the set of the empty set. This approach raises philosophical questions about whether numbers are truly reducible to sets and what this means for the nature of arithmetic.

Infinity in Arithmetic:

The Infinite: Arithmetic raises questions about the nature of infinity, particularly in the context of number theory. Is infinity a real concept, or is it merely a useful abstraction? The introduction of infinite numbers and the concept of limits in calculus have expanded these questions to new mathematical areas.

Peano Arithmetic: Peano's axioms formalize the arithmetic of natural numbers, raising questions about the nature of induction and the extent to which the system can account for all arithmetic truths, particularly regarding the treatment of infinite sets or sequences.

The Ontology of Arithmetic:

Realism vs. Anti-Realism: Realists believe that numbers and arithmetic truths exist independently of human thought, while anti-realists, such as fictionalists, argue that numbers are useful fictions that help us describe patterns but do not exist independently.

Mathematical Structuralism: Structuralists argue that numbers do not exist as independent objects but only as positions within a structure. For example, the number 2 has no meaning outside of its relation to other numbers (like 1 and 3) within the system of natural numbers.

Cognitive Foundations of Arithmetic:

Psychological Approaches: Some philosophers and cognitive scientists explore how humans develop arithmetic abilities, considering whether arithmetic is innate or learned and how it relates to our cognitive faculties for counting and abstraction.

Embodied Arithmetic: Some theories propose that arithmetic concepts are grounded in physical and bodily experiences, such as counting on fingers or moving objects, challenging the purely abstract view of arithmetic.

Arithmetic in Other Cultures:

Cultural Variability: Different cultures have developed distinct systems of arithmetic, which raises philosophical questions about the universality of arithmetic truths. Is arithmetic a universal language, or are there culturally specific ways of understanding and manipulating numbers?

Historical and Philosophical Insights:

Aristotle and Number as Quantity: Aristotle considered numbers as abstract quantities and explored their relationship to other categories of being. His ideas laid the groundwork for later philosophical reflections on the nature of number and arithmetic.

Leibniz and Binary Arithmetic: Leibniz's work on binary arithmetic (the foundation of modern computing) reflected his belief that arithmetic is deeply tied to logic and that numerical operations can represent fundamental truths about reality.

Kant's Synthetic A Priori: Immanuel Kant argued that arithmetic propositions, such as "7 + 5 = 12," are synthetic a priori, meaning that they are both informative about the world and knowable through reason alone. This idea contrasts with the empiricist view that arithmetic is derived from experience.

Frege and the Logicization of Arithmetic: Frege’s attempt to reduce arithmetic to logic in his Grundgesetze der Arithmetik (Basic Laws of Arithmetic) was a foundational project for 20th-century philosophy of mathematics. Although his project was undermined by Russell’s paradox, it set the stage for later developments in the philosophy of mathematics, including set theory and formal systems.

The philosophy of arithmetic engages with fundamental questions about the nature of numbers, the existence of arithmetic truths, and the relationship between arithmetic and logic. It explores different perspectives on how we understand and apply arithmetic, whether it is an invention of the human mind, a discovery of abstract realities, or a formal system of rules. Through the works of philosophers like Frege, Kant, and Leibniz, arithmetic has become a rich field of philosophical inquiry, raising profound questions about the foundations of mathematics, knowledge, and cognition.

Choose STEM: The Strand that Holds the Future

STEM, or Science, Technology, and Engineering Mathematics, is a program taken by secondary students before going to college. This educational program aims to produce students who are academically competent in terms of logical thinking and equip them with skills as preparation for careers, especially in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (Lutkevitch, 2022). In the Philippines, the STEM strand is offered in senior high school before going to college, which gives students advantages in pursuing courses in the fields of medicine and engineering.

The STEM strand offers different subject areas, which include the core subjects, contextualized subjects, and specialized subjects, for two semesters in each school year. These subjects include oral communication, earth science, empowerment technologies, research, pre-calculus and basic calculus, and many more (Department of Education, n.d.). With STEM, students will be able to learn and grasp ideas and lessons that are also taken up in college courses. They will also have advanced knowledge in terms of complex scientific problems and the future of modern technology (AMA Online Senior High School, 2023).

STEM is essential for the economic development of every country. Thus, it is recognized and implemented by the government, like in the Philippines (StrandPh, 2023). Most universities also prefer STEM graduates as they are more inclined toward real-life application of ideas, have collaboration skills, and can easily adapt to changing work conditions. And in terms of career opportunities, taking the STEM program in SHS opens a wide range of white collar jobs, which include being a biologist, engineer, architect, nutritionist, computer programmer, and many more (AMA Online Senior High School, 2023). And also, pursuing STEM-related courses leads to higher-paying jobs as our world is mainly focused on the development of technologies and maintaining global stability (Lutkevitch, 2022).

In general, STEM is one of the important SHS tracks that are offered by many schools in the Philippines, as this program aims to develop and enhance the skills of many students before going to college. And along with the development and emerging economy, there is an increase in demand for STEM professionals to cater to and lead these changes for everyone. Thus, the government is implementing and promoting STEM education in every school. Moreover, having an interest in pursuing a STEM-related career is a great option to consider, as the STEM strand will allow you to build a strong foundation in many fields and have the chance to explore many career paths.

Choosing the STEM strand in senior high school is not only about aiming to develop your logical and analytical thinking and aiming for high-paying jobs; you will be part of the development of our changing world.

Thinkin about my old ideas for "I DISAGREE: An Ibuki Mioda SDR2 Protag Swap AU" and remembered what I wanted to post next. Previously, I talked about how Ibuki might be like as a protagonist, but I didn't get into what she'd be like during the class trials. So, let's get into it!

One Step Closer to the Edge: Ibuki in the Trials

Hajime and the other DR protagonists approach class trials by piecing together clues and finding holes in arguments. Ibuki has never shown an aptitude for that kind of reasoning. She contributes almost nothing during the two class trials in which she’s present.

To be clear, Ibuki’s not a total idiot, either - though it’d be great if she’s briefly stumped when asked to name the number of sides in an octagon (“Rock stars don’t need to know calculus!” “Ibuki, it’s basic geometry …”). If she hopes to determine the killer and save everyone else, she’ll need to tap into different strengths:

Perfect listening! In Chapter 1, Ibuki boasts about her extraordinary ability to … tell which of her classmates is talking when it’s dark. Not that impressive, with everyone having a distinct voice and manner of speech, but I’ve always loved the notion that her hearing is enhanced as a result of her Ultimate Light Musician talent. Imagine an SDR2 that includes Mass Panic Debates before their introduction in V3. Years of discerning the layers in complex instrumentals would help Ibuki sort through the noise of the hysteria and find the arguments that matter most.

Perfect recall! What is impressive about her contribution in Chapter 1 isn’t that she recognizes her classmates’ voices, but that she remembers everyone’s exact words and the order in which they talked. That’s quite a memory! Something like that could really come in handy down the line, with mysteries built around a need to carefully remember events. Maybe Monokuma could even decide that instead of offering a limited number of details in a Monokuma file, he should just destroy all the e-Handbooks. That would require Ibuki to exercise this ability like never before.

BS detector! I swear it’s not just because I’m a big fan of the mystery-of-the-week TV series Poker Face. Look, Ibuki’s living her truth right now, but that’s only after spending a long time hiding behind a conformist facade. That experience helps her recognize when someone isn’t being fully honest. (It’s a good thing this is just a narrative and not an actual Danganronpa game!) As fellow Poker Face fans might recognize, this seemingly busted ability comes with its own challenges: figuring out exactly why someone is lying, learning to discern when someone only believes they’re telling the truth, and so on. Then there’s Byakuya Togami, who seems honest but has something just a little off about him.

There’s also her sharp wit and fair level of intelligence. Moreover, she has a genuine fondness for her classmates, striving to overcome their barriers and see who they are at their core. All this should combine to make her a shining star on the stand. Of course, she’ll get by with a little help from her friends … but that's for another post.

Anyway, I'm surprised more Danganronpa protag swaps don't account for the differences that their stars have from the actual protags. It's fun to think of how each character might use their own strengths to guide their approach to this kind of situation.

PREV: What Would Ibuki Be Like as the Main Character of SDR2?

NEXT: The Major Side Characters

Fair and Valid... I just wish that (in the US at least) at least the last year of either math or science was replaced with a mandatory course called "How to Adult" where you not only go through the practice of doing taxes and keeping to a budget, but also work out different methods of saving and making money. A month of introduction to the stock market. A lesson on how to look up/use government aid if you ever find yourself at that kind of a low point. And also how to handle money if you end up swinging the other way so you don't waste it all. If we have to live in this capitalist hellscape, having a basic guide for how to not starve to death or where to look for jobs in a failing economy would be a little more useful than Calculus II.

It’s sad how much of what is taught in school is useless to over 99% of the population.

There are literally math concepts taught in high school and middle school that are only used in extremely specialized fields or that are even so outdated they aren’t used anymore!
