>hurr how do I make it rich?

I see the question everyday.
Why don't you just work in the oil fields?

You can make 100k in your first year there, after a few years you'll be around 150-250...

You don't need any degree or qualifications, just strong work ethic and probably a driver's license. Fuck off

Guys, it literally just comes down on persistence and practice makes perfect.
How do you think people learn Chinese?
That's right, write every fucking character over and over and over and over and over again until you filled 4 pages with the same character.
Same goes for math.
Take ONE issue (brackets, fractions, percentage, algebra for all I fucking care) and go over it over and over and over again until you can dream that shit.
That's all there is to it. Fellow Math-autist here. You can break the cycle. I'm doing an economics degree right now, the math isn't horrible but 3 years ago I couldn't do any of this.
Now I can.
So can you.

Funny you mention it. I got my intelligence tested just a few days ago, and it was a huge self-esteem boost for me, and it made me decide to put actual effort into stuff, and I just decided to learn japanese by myself. I'm still in the hiragana and katakana, but it's being much easier to memorize the kana than I tought. It's amazing how much the effort you put into things makes them easier. I had never really tried hard at anything, and it's amazing the difference it makes.

There is no distinction. Creating a polymorphism is the exact same thing as "discovering" a polymorphism. You seem to be under the impression that simply because /someone else/ knows about a polymorphism, its rediscovery is less novel for a person who previously did not.

"Creating" polymorphisms, a.k.a indirection, and recognizing patterns, a.k.a establishing that there is a polymorphism and a level of indirection, are the same thing.

>> No.293355

>>293348
To add to this, you may be thinking that someone can be taught an idea more easily than they can innovate the idea itself. But the issue here is accessibility to information that one may exercise their pattern recognition on; pattern recognition is still essential to being educated; individuals who do not readily recognize patterns will often be confused when instructed about a system, while individuals who do readily recognize patterns will easily learn new concepts.

Take the famous Gauss quote that, paraphrasing, if the formula for Euler's Identity was not immediately apparent to a student upon being told it, he would never become a first-class Mathematician.

>> No.293358

>Creating a polymorphism is the exact same thing as "discovering" a polymorphism

But this is absolutely wrong in every way imaginable.

Just because a program can detect some pre-determined pattern doesn't mean it can also create novel patterns or implement those patterns in useful ways.

Think of a program or person that can detect a language but can't speak it.

Just because I can detect "chinese", a great song, formula, idea, pattern doesn't mean I can also create those things. Etc. Fuck off.
