Why be a math monk when you can be a math hunk?

>> No.10489820

Being a monk means becoming a recluse to focus on spiritual development. So buy a small farm in Appalachia and grow your own food, hunt and do math the rest of the time.

Funnily enough, the inmates at the prison would be "forcing" their dicks into your prolapsed anus and ejaculating into it over and over again.

I'm taking D.E this period what should I be prepared for? We have just gone over separable, autonomous and linear D.E and it's pretty easy but it requires you to have a firm grasp on integration techniques

You were never a math monk. The monk part is what wards off burnout. You're just a failure.

Regardless of his views on set theory they're pretty good intro vids with plenty of proofs walked through. The projections intro vids are pretty good too. When you're done you'll undoubtedly have an area you're interested in and can then pilfer the /sci/ wiki
