If you love studying math, specifically understanding the language and concepts of math, but you don't like actually doing it

...Are you a patrician or a brainlet?

If you find "doing" it troublesome, then you haven't actually gained the understanding you profess to enjoy.

I'll define doing as computation?

I think that's a plausible problem to have them and disagree with >>9257297 's statement

>>9257313
Yeah, as in I don't like actually working out example. It feels like an implementation detail that tends to be based on specific handwritten-math algorithms developed to solve instances of the abstract problems, and it takes away from the grandiose conceptual focus

I see, so you try hard to have utterly useless knowledge

Playing with examples and concrete instances of abstract concepts is part of the fun of math. And it will give you a more thorough understanding/intuition of those abstract concepts. Maybe try coming up with your own examples and exploring them.

I agree, half way of reading that sentence I decided to stop because its just tiresome and you get the draft anyway..
