yeahh techno it's one of my favourite subjects, aside from philosophy and religion

the study of physiognomy actually kinda got me into this lm stuff

i can always tutor you, i am in New Delhi after all

My brain just can’t process math at all. Even basic math is something that takes me a second sometimes. I’m much better with words than math.

How did it physiognomy get you into math?

I will definitely need to get your help with math bhai.

i can tell haha, you seem very articulate and smart i must say
How did it physiognomy get you into math?
i meant that it got me to looksmax lol
but it still did get me into math
they both share the arts of truth, reasoning and reality
proofs like this and paradoxes
shit all of it is so interesting :lul:

would you recommend me taking a degree in maths?

i've heard it's beneficial generally, but after hearing about the interest payments being higher than the tuition repayment itself, it's putting me off lol

i could always move to scotland, wait 3 years, and my fee will be <£5k

no. lmfao. this is very basic maths what u did in op; maths degrees r horrific.

why do u cr abt muh interest payments? grow up, nothing is changing and scotland wont save u. the world is a cruel place n u dont get wat u want anymore. boohoo. do a degree like maths only if ur actlly good at maths naturally n r confident u can get into a good uni. if u do maths at most unis, u wont get anywhere.

It’s a very hard degree, especially pure maths. I would do something like Econ and maths or financial mathematics because that’s more applicable outside of academia

So I’ve heard. For nearly everyone econ& maths, financial maths or at most, maths & stats are best if you want to do a maths heavy degree and are good at it. Also gives more variety with optional modules

Pure maths is a high-status signal. Stats is for practitioners of Judaism..

:yes:
Unless you literally do nothing else and are mentally strong and confident
n r confident u can get into a good uni. if u do maths at most unis, u wont get anywhere.
:unsure: you really think?
If anything I might rather choose a lesser known "worse" one

I like more the proof that deduces that √2 is irrational from the fact that 2 is prime which implies that 2 cant be a square of an integer and it from the fact that that any fraction in its simplest form squared isnt an integer except if it is reduced fraction with a denominator of 1, which is a whole number and it is already proven that an integer squared cant be equal 2 and therefore there doesnt exist a rational number which when squared gives 2.
I like this one because it is unnecessary long and retarded

yeah ofc, this is a shorter proof

i wrote every step out clearly bcs it's easier to visualise, esp for those who don't know much about basic maths
