Real early manifestation from before I knew what sex was, liking naked lady statues and paintings better than the weird males ones. When older, feeling affection towards an actress.
I think it’s normal teen dissatisfaction, but certainly being a homosexual in a Christian family contributed to my sour mood. I stayed faithful throughout my teens and into my 20s. Horrible period of my life. Wasted years.

Very, very much yes. Pic related.

Maybe, but probably only if you plan to do something involving the intersection of the two. The challenge with math is it's not itself a trade: you need to specialize in a secondary topic area which will be your day job that uses math.

For these two topics, I'd seek job listings related to NLP, data analytics, and ML. There's a shortage of people well-versed in the technical skills and linguistics working on machine understanding.

I'm speaking as a university drop out, not as a person who has a maths degree and can evaluate its worth firsthand:
I think people who take maths have real balls, and didn't cop out for a diluted maths Comp Sci. degree.
If you were dissect my feelings on this, they probably stem not directly from jealousy - I'm pretty happy with where I am - but something akin to it. I hate the realities of software development work, and tend to think I'd dislike anyone who would flourish in that environment.
Let's think of some words I'd use to describe such a person, who studied Computer Science, joined a board game society and genuinely enjoys programming: intelligent, conceited, easily led, sedentary, disconnected, oh yeah and cringe.
A Comp. Sci. student had sex with my girlfriend. What was this thread about again?

You can tell this board hasn't studied math beyond high school and maybe glancing at a copy of Elements; higher math is all about looking at incredibly obscure, abstract problems that have no philosophical (or practical at all, for that matter) relevance whatsoever. Every one in while you'll get some broad insight by looking together at a body of established work, but that's not what math is about and most mathematicians don't care about it. The only philosophic field of math at all is set theory / foundations, and it's ded outside of a few autists here and there.

Nah, you've just showed yourself as someone who has never read a single work of philosophy in his life. How someone can say that a field exists whose objects are abstract and then go on to say that this has no philosophical relevance -- when there is 2000+ years of discussion about the problems of abstraction (and near concepts, e.g. nominalism, fictional objects, etc) within metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, and other areas -- is next level ignorance.

Yes, but to the detriment of most everyone else on this board who comes here to read and engage in anonymous discussion about literature. It is understandable that you feel lonely in our current societal circumstances, but there are other internet spaces more suited to namefagging while engaging internet discussion to ease IRL loneliness. You should consider seeking out and moving to those places for such type of online interactions and only posting here anonymously. You have already completely derailed this thread.
