Ah, didn't know about that one. Twice as expensive as the ones I mentioned, though.

If a lever machine is too finicky for you, consider an espresso machine that is actually made for home use. Now I don't mean things like Rancilio Silva and other mini machines that…

> they were terrible musicians Not only are the songs they wrote really good and catchy, Ramones are one of those bands where it sounds so easy anyone can do it but if you give it …

I'm as bearish as anyone on the current AI hype, but this particular ship has sailed. Research is revealing these humongous neural networks of weights for next token prediction to …

I stand corrected. Can’t edit my original post, though. Khan hides it well, though - it’s listed smack in the middle of sixth grade math and high school math courses. I skimmed thr…

Yeah, that’s my thinking now as well. It’s going to take an incredibly long time but truly understanding each problem is probably the only way to go. Which is where this beats self…

Khan Academy last I checked went up to High School. MathAcademy goes up to undergrad math.

Not sure I’d want to use it as my only resource, but as supplementary material it’s excellent. He really explains concepts well (some better than others though, though this is like…

Depends on what you need, I suppose. This resource is said to be pretty good: https://www.susanrigetti.com/math I decided start with Calculus I on MathAcademy because that was the …

Right, and then you’re expending mental energy on figuring out how to teach math (to yourself) instead of on the math itself. This is not wrong, and will likely even teach you a th…

I’m currently doing the Calculus I course and while there are explanations interspersed throughout the problems, these mostly seem to be the bare minimum you need to work the probl…

FWIW my experiences with MathAcademy roughly overlap OP’s: it’s really hard work and adult life seriously interferes with making speedy progress (notice their own success stories a…

But if you self study using the OU books, you yourself will not be accredited.

They’re not a private tutor, though. They don’t explain very much and there certainly isn’t a way to ask questions. As I said elsewhere, to me they’re about twice as expensive as t…

You can, but you will spend a lot of time figuring out what it is that you need to study and where your weak points are. MathAcademy does that for you so you can spend your preciou…

Interestingly, this is what the EU is. After WW2 it was decided to set things up so that European countries no longer could wage war against each other. Hence starting out with coa…

Everybody needs a 303.

Of course if you store “7000 notes” in a PKM you should expect most of them to be useless, unless you’re doing science and most of them are literature notes or something (remember …

Yes. If you can afford it (around 100 $€ will get you a basic one) and you expect to use it more than once, it'll save you a lot of grief.

Super cool! Where did you get the problems from?
