Coding is a tool for thinking in general.The fact that claude is accomplishing task X does not imply that you should retire you own thinking.

All of human cooking With no African recipe.

It is because it is populous that it does not have space for foreigners?

A better question would have been..who would you consider a formidable rival?

How many people on here can truly say that they were considering between two different countries. That doesn’t happen at scale. Mmmh...How about four countries?US,UK,Canada &South …

It is easy to understand the equations if you have physical intuition of what is going on.Then derive from first principles.Memorizing formulas is the key to failing advance math.

Are you saying that because they end with "Algebra"?You can get an A+ in basic Algebra and have no clue about Abstract Algebra.It is the chain of reasoning rather than the mindless…

Geometry is fundamental to physics and chemistry,not Algebra.Look at the thinking style,not the content.

Analytical geometry underlies calculus,not Algebra.And combinatorics is a completely different arm of the two cultures of mathematics.Also Geometry was fine before Rene Descartes m…

Yes. Substitute Algebra with Combinatorics and you will be fine .I do not understand this Algebra worship.Speaking as someone who graduated magna cum laude in in College Math.

How does that relate to AI?

Some believed we lacked the programming language to describe your perfect world. But I believe that, as a species, human beings define their reality through misery and suffering. T…

Banning art?

I would say Physics is the subset of Mathematics that describes Physical reality.The rest does not care if it is practical, just logically intact.

There is a very slick proof for the irrationality of the number 2 that is found in Baby Rudin.I thought it was his invention.Turns out it appears verbatim in Hardy's A course of Pu…

What math textbooks used in the late 19th or early 20th century are still great right now?Something like G.H Hardy's A Course of Pure Mathematics

There is no royal road bro

This is good as a second course on Linear Algebra.For a first course,use (I am not kidding) Linear Algebra Done Wrong by Sergei Treil https://www.math.brown.edu/streil/papers/LADW/…

Actually,combinatorial thinking is more useful for understanding Algebra and not the other way around.Key word is understanding .No need for a beautiful formula you cannot understa…

Combinatorics can do that even better,minus the memorization.

What is the difference between Linear Algebra and "Thermodynamic" Linear Algebra?
