not to be controversial, but I'm starting to hate the math defenders on this app, like some people take it weirdly personally if you say you hate math, and I know this is a hard pill to swallow if you were praised as a child, but it's literally not about you
#a lot of us are actually traumatized by our academic failures so im fucking sorry i dont enjoy doing math jesus christ#if i have to share an internet with people who say “the curtains were just blue😝😝🤪” you have to deal with some people not liking math#atleast im not insulting the mere concept that its worth learning#“omg its so funny that they tried to teach us more than basic reading and writing” and you guys wonder why we have a media literacy problem#attictictic

I swear the rest of my work for this semester of education is going to be done purely out of spite. I am going to write sentences like I'm writing my novel just to get up to word count goals. This class was feeling pointless and directed mainly at multi-subject majors before I decided to drop the edu load and now that feeling has doubled. None of this will be useful. But. My gpa
#Starlight Does Uni#No seriously making vocab posters isn't really going to work long term in the college math classroom I don't know what to tell you#I don't think they'd even be really useful in the AP Calc classroom that was my original plan tbh#Aside from the first few days of concept learning#Because honestly if you're having to rely long-term on a poster in order to be able to do derivation and integration#You're not going to do well on the AP exam#And that's like. the point of the class#I get scaffolding is good and everything. Like I understand that#But like. For the AP classroom. There's a very particular goal that they're trying to reach.#And too much long-term scaffolding of the basics will actually hinder rather than help.#I honestly feel like my AP Calc class didn't do as well as they could have#Because my teacher didn't set limits on what we were allowed to use on exams until the month before the big one#So I was the only one holding myself to exam pacing (finishing in the exam period) and doing my best to not rely on the formula sheet#And I was one of the only people to get a 5#Like absolutely there should be resources for ELLs#But I don't think this is something that would work quite like they're saying it should at the 12th grade level idk#Because what's being suggested is essentially that formula sheet on the walls.#And. No.

math is so interesting… i wish i had like any aptitude for it whatsoever
#i CAN learn anything and i DO think it’s embarrassing when people are like lol i can’t do basic arthimetic#BUT that being said i am pretty bad at math it’s just not something i’m very good at lol#but everytime someone who does understand math explains some concept to me i’m like WOAH i don’t like get it but cool !#glad there are people out there to explain things in like basic ways to me i guess

anyways what did i do this week... Not much to be honest . Other than reading the entirety of monthly girls nozaki kun finally which has been on my to do list for ages
#^went hunting for that page rival asked me about last week... Really funny series highly recommend#also every day i find out how impressively bad i am at linear algebra . like so so so so bad#its not even the concepts its just like i cant do basic math without making indescribably stupid mistakes.#and its killing me............................. but whatever

god it is so insane getting so close to the end of making this base. like it feels fake that in like a week from now im gonna have it out but IM SO CLOSEE to being done it is real i know i can hit that deadline.. but i feel like im in the infinite mental dragon prison tunnel
#i did the math even if i take out some work hours i did last year (~10-15ish on concept art) im still at like 3 whole 40 hour work weeks#which means the mental strain im feeling is just because im working enough as your average full time worker#but i am starting to feel a bit loopy from how long this project has been#i did have an autism breakdown like 2 weeks ago bc i did too much in 1 day so im trying to make myself take it a little easier#i will be CELEBRATING next thursday and im gonna order pizza or something#soap talks#im gonna take it easy and do commissions after this release itll be nice getting to do unique stuff again#actual status update though is im about 90% done and i need to just do some final assembly of files and record tutorials basically

Finally started learning about homotopy in topology! There's a good chance I'll be writing a post about it at soon!
#I knew about the basic concepts before but I hadn't started learning it formally until today#topology#maths posting#maths memes#maths#mathblr#mathematics#lipshits posts

one funny thing about today: one of the kids telling me pre-k was more fun because you don’t do math in pre-k, but you have to do math in kindergarten and he hates math lol
#i was like. same#internally i thought oh honey it just gets worse after this#they’re learning the most basic math and obviously to me it’s way too easy#but for them it’s a new concept and it can be frustrating#so i understand#oh but how do i love when they figure out those basic math skills#makes me proud :’)#logan.txt

The secret to advanced math is to sacrifice your ability to ask anyone you know for help with a problem, in exchange for the ability to say "Oh the thing I'm working on is [relatively simple math concept]" and have literally no one bother you for the next 5 hours because they'll assume whatever you're doing is Difficult and Important Work
#math#stem#studyblr#stemblr#once I was tasked to find the height of some stairs or something using trig. basic trig#and everyone collectively was like “oh wow thank you paris! you've made such a big contribution!”#I still can't tell if I was being trolled for that one. I think I was punked?#compeng#on the other hand I don't understand inductive proofs as well as I should#and the only people who know what I'm talking about (professors/math enthusiasts/my classmates)#also happen to suck at explaining concepts they find simple. tragedy.#the power of jargon is incredible#eye contact with the abyss

I have to study math for this exam. can you imagine studying math
math 😦😦😦
#what kind of math tho#like basic middle - senior school concepts or trig or calculus or something#the way i feel like math is easy now because i haven't studied in 5 or 6 years#except the concepts needed for physics

rehearsal went very well tonight. we did not spend almost an hour and a half painstakingly going over a chorus that it took me about ten minutes to learn without listening to it.
#ollie considers#they don't know basic math.#sidenote but irving not being a musician in that au of mine is a tragedy#i feel very strongly that he would be just as obnoxious as me about his ability to learn the music quickly#but without the concept of Inside Thoughts#the number of people he hasn't antagonised is essentially Just Little And Hodgson.

it’s true.
"wow ur so good at math" ah ha but you see. you dont ever get good at math. you stay bad, but now youre bad at harder math
#no matter how smart you are there is mathematics out there that would take you years of effort to learn to read‚ let alone work with#every word or symbol is a concept whose definition contains ten more nested concepts that invite basically zero intuition#no matter who you are. there is math that will make you tap out like you ain’t shit

Calc teacher said we should do the avaliatory exercises just to see our basic math level
Fellas
I don't know how to do a single one of those exercises 👍
#I lie#i can do like#3#most of all bc its been ages since I worked with those concepts#guess thats what ill spend my holidays doing#relearning basic math#let's fucking go#nap first tho

Im making a neocities to replace and improve upon this blog. Very exciting development
#sometimes i feel like a town crier but like#only for things that interest me personally#like just a dude on horseback riding through town at 4am like#''I GOT MY TAX RETURN BACK. IT WAS $103.''#and people go back to sleep#anyway coding is both easier than i ever thought and also very very hard#like#very easy to do super super basic stuff#and people have done a lot of work to make it super easy to get started#there are html generators i found that do the basic foundation leg work for you to start#(super appreciate the people who made those)#and doing small basic edits to a pre existing code is easy#but uh#things get so much more complex#and when you KNOW theres a small error somewhere but you cant find it???#finding the error is like. lowkey brain melting#keeping track of everything when its still in progress is hard#and alao tbh ive always struggled to like#perceive the concept of software#like theres just this disconnect in my head#i have a brick of plastic and metal in my hand#and i can generally understand how it was constructed in specific ways to channel electric charges in a way to cause certain effects#but then the idea that you have this lengthy hypothetical and nontangible logic exercise just. SOMEHOW contained within it.#and that is the key to the physical item doing what you want it to#my brain just really struggles with that#so talking about code too in depth confuses me no matter how accessibly its phrased#just. its a math problem. its word problems. its logic problems. i can solve puzzles.#i cannot comprehend the continuum between the thought puzzles and the chunk of physical material in my hands#anyway#devilman am i right

talking to him more very much achieved. we just talked for like 4 hours in the kitchen holy shit I need to sleep
#I went into the kitchen to wash up wanting it to be a few minutes to get back to my parents by he came home at the same time#unsure what just happened honestly! as in I’m not sure what is going on from his end of the interaction#because I have never met anyone who would just do that before. like four hours straight when before we’d talked for periods of idk 10minutes#and he WAS engaged the whole time#granted he spent a significant amount of time talking. he talked far more than I did which is often the case but Im not sure how I felt here#I think he gets excited abt individual topics and. gets carried away is the wrong word but he gets absorbed in it#he spent a while talking me through the very complex maths he’s been doing recently#(he studies maths. also abt to start masters.) and was assuming a much stronger mathematical background than I have but I understood a bunch#he IS very good at explaining things and I was interested to a point but unfortunately I was not going to ask about individual theorems and#shit like that at 11pm. it was still super interesting I’m not downplaying that but I didn’t know half of what he brought up#there was basically no way I was going to understand much more than the vague concept anyway#anyway! also extremely into food. especially into traditional chinese cooking which is cool as fuck and I now know so much more abt food#I have never personally cared much at all about food. I enjoy when taste good and I enjoy cooking. he’s into the precision cooking#that he told me apparently Chinese and French food is the best in the world at. meant to be amazing at going for specific effects#oh he came back from a musical! apparently abt a woman with bipolar that was on in London I might check what that was. next to normal#cried 7 times. apparently he’s super into stories with that kinda emotional payoff. started telling me later abt tokyo animation#priest if you’re already seeing this I WILL be asking you abt it later but pls tell me whatever. he likes clannad and sound euphorium#bunch of others but those are the ones he talked most abt and started tearing up when he played me a song from clannad where the baby’s born#so I think biggest things I’ve learned are that he’s impressively in touch w his emotions (further damaging the straight guy case)#regardless it’s just nice to talk to a guy who talks abt stuff so openly it’s very refreshing#unsure how cultural differences factor in here. I would’ve expected it to go the other way but possible this is a degree more normal#and he’s very very academically minded. he learned Japanese bc was bored after high school and is doing a WHOLE lot of extra maths for fun#socially definitely very competent he’s very good at talking but a little more focused inward.#definitely did not notice the (admittedly extremely gentle) flirting throughout like when I complimented his bracelet#(this cute gold year of the rat thing his mum got him)#so yeah. was very fun talking to him. will process this for a while#I think this has definitely established that we could be friends if either of us pursue that after summer which is very cool!! will see#luke.txt

i fucking love prime numbers. and pi. AND THE FIBONACCI SEQUENCE I LOVEEE THE FIBONACCI SEQUENCE
#all three are due to my elementary school GT math teacher#mrs nimlo i love you thank you for introducing me to these three most gorgeous concepts#we watched the prime numbers rap in class so often until we had them memorized up to 100#she had a room decor thing that was the digits of pi all around the circumference of the room#and she also got us pencils with the digits of pi etched into them for pi day#and id just sit there in class and memorize off of both the poster thing and the pencil#and the fibonacci sequence… waoh… every time i think about it i’m filled with such wonder for the world#it’s mathematical but it’s naturally occurring basically Everyehere and it’s so gorgeous

the way i am flirting with going back to uni
#the way i am sidling up to the concept of further eduction in the seedy bar that is life and saying HEY GIRL to her#the way i am flagrantly FORGETTING how much i hated my first (maths) degree#because the hot sexy concept of 'studying religion 18 hours a week at the open university'#has rendered me veritably STUPID with lust#i got told i'd be a great rabbi and i basically blacked out from sheer emotional desire and now im about to lay it all on the line#YES i will never be a rabbi because i dont have the time or the fucking energy levels#but girl....... maybe a BA would fix me.#my BSc certainly didnt but im 30 now. i am a whole new womanthing. i could be GayBriar BA (Hons) that'd be fucking HOT
