If one was a young or returning adult with interest but little background in mathematics, would you suggest learning category theory first (assuming the adult is interested)? How would you suggest going about doing this as a path?

I appreciate the civil perspectives of you both, and would be interested in seeing you two discuss this in written format. I'd admit to having a relatively poor view of Gould, but this is not an impression formed from particularly clos

You might also want to look into ME/CFS. I'm very sorry to hear about this, because I had an analogous experience for years and know how hopeless it feels to try to figure out what the issue is (while your cognitive abilities &#x2

I would love to hear more about this, particularly the Medicaid fraud angle.

Have you tried the Guoyu Ribao, or Mandarin Daily News? Seems like you need extensive reading practice, and that might be a good way to start. I've also heard excellent things about Outlier Linguistics' resources for Chinese chara

It's practically 100%. Once you're in, they'll do everything in their power to graduate you (legitly). Every incentive they have points at a perfect graduation rate. EDIT: In the US, anyway. Things are different in, say, Cari

Taiwan is the awkward counterexample. It never experienced the cultural severing of the Cultural Revolution, yet is arguably the most thriving democracy in Asia.

Formal deviation from that posture would immediately provoke war from China. Otherwise, it looks like pretty clear picture. The population identifies as (Taiwanese && not Chinese) at ~70-95%. The Sunflower movement, the election of

Would you be willing to chat about approved vendors? I can't find your email, but here's mine: derrick@amass.ai My team did some work for the KS04 special election last year, and now we've developed a service for political ca

As someone who wanted to redo my mathematical foundations and go onto higher maths, I tried (and failed) many different approaches. Eventually I found that New Math books worked for me. I'm about 70% through the www.elementsofmathemati

As for the motivations of researchers: If any student comes to me and says he wants to be useful to mankind and go into research to alleviate human suffering, I advise him to go into charity instead. Research wants real egotists who seek t

My impression (as a heritage speaker) is that cha's usage has simply broadened a bit, in the same way that American English has herbal teas and fruit teas. These also don't contain any tea, and have a different term, tisane. But b

Do you think these factors commonly affect both men and women? Or that these are more valued in Japan? This list is appealing to me, but it does seem to be describing something like the best possible characteristics in introverts. I would b

This is a really nice link, thanks. Instead of an entire book I can point people to this article now! It does still seem unclear that some UV exposure is beneficial, though. Light therapy lamps aimed at affecting circadian rhythms are UV-sh

This is very interesting. I have a similar outlook on abilities as you, but only partial/lesser results so far (it's still difficult to find consistent time to develop specific skills). Actually in some ways, your story seems simi

I'd be interested in hearing more about your experience, as someone who likes math amateurly. How expensive is it and what's the process been like for you?

Fair enough. I myself tried to transition to software, but went through Hacker School, now known as the Recurse Center. They're rather closer to a good meal, and are tuition-free. I do know that medical schools have been trying to attr

We rent bunk beds in shared rooms, mostly to people on fixed short term stays -- interns, visiting academics, founders in accelerators (particularly 500 Startups as they're extremely close). We're selling the company itself.

Echoing abecedarious, I do visualize the letters. In fact, I've read in some books about different types of language learners that there's a category/subset of visualizers that can only visualize the letters. (Not everyone is
