I don't quite see yet what YOU are in for. In any case, I don't read to best some opposing parties - I might have a bit too much of a nihilist in me to think that would result in much.
In any case, sure if you have physics/technical/math questions, I'm usually open to answer/engage ..

Decision theory as a field sometimes resembles more engineering than set theory or geometry, because there's lots of model choice involved and the sense in which one school of thought (say Bayesian probability proponents) would attack another one is less straight than just choosing your algebraic axioms/theory.
Your entrance point to math will depend on your current level. If you don't need to fresh up on old stuff, some Springer combinatorics textbooks never hurt anyone. But people who didn't do math at university usually aren't motivated to do examples for longer than a few days. If you have a goal, start writing code.
I have a youtube channel but I post videos rarely and turned out to be more CS theory than math 101.

>It is to pretend you are some critic above and beyond what exists, who can stand on high with ridicule to dispel all nonsense.
I didn't want to imply that. I, too, am eating from the trashcan all the time.

I'm a physics PhD in a high paying tech job in Germany and I see the rape rate going up in the news. So I'm trying to figure out where to sit on, and what to say to whom to make this country stay good (not go down the path it seems to be going).
I also bang a philosophy master who literally writes on Derrida. Sure everybody votes left in those circles, but she's also a thinker and sees problems and doesn't just ignore what's happening. So I can't by into Petersons rants either, I'm sure those frenchies have their good parts. The problem I have with them - and I had the problem already 3 years ago before shit went down, is that personality cult and being intriguing goes over usefulness. I'm at the point where I think philosophy at uni should do something for the people.

- University of Vienna/German Aerospace Center
- Differnetial geometry/Plasma Chemistry, but my interests are more at the core of theory, see my Wiki

- Depends on where you are, how good you are, what you want. My general advice would be to make room in your schedule for 1h each day in which you can read philosophy for 40 minutes and then relax for 20 more.
