Im a complete retard and im passing calculus 3. If i can do it, you can too
>>
alright, now use it to get to space. we're all counting on you.
>>
I already have 2 college degrees and I still can't get a real job
>>
>>83284142
i remember withdrawing from calc 3 because i was going to fail. i blame it being my last semester before graduation and not needing the class to graduate (my elective). senioritis basically. maybe i'm just retarded too. funny i got a b in calc 2
>>
>>83284165
i couldn't pass algebra 1 because i couldn't speak spanish, it was equations that looked just like these ones (way less symbols though) and a bunch of gibberish. I had to cheat to get to geometry and by the time algebra 2 rolled around i could decipher my graph calculator manual. OP 3 calcs is super advanced.
>>
I got an A in Calc 3, but that was so long ago I probably couldn't do most of it now.
>>
>>83284142
I can do trig but not calc. I'm fucking cooked.
>>
>>83284187
>OP 3 calcs is super advanced.
i remember dropping the course when we got to double integrals. i swear it was because of seniorities. i'm iqlet where i need to study tho. i recognize that

Do people really look at math and get confused like it's some magic ruins or something?
All you need to know is what they fucking symbols mean/represent and BAM you can figure it out.
It's not hard people.
>>
>>83284228
As someone who failed several math classes, it's mostly because of bad short term memory. I have a really hard time performing complex operations because they have so many small parts that need to be broken down and I forget where everything goes.
>>
>>83284142
My brain has melted from being a shut in neet for so many years

I take omega 3/7/9 and do noting meditate, and that helped me (I no longer forget my keys).
>>83284304

It's not that hard, its just tedious.
>>
>>83284142
I could never understand calc 3 because i couldnt decode what all the symbols meant. Like even if i was looking at a formula i wouldnt understand how to interpret that in a way that lets me use it on an actual equation, like, with numbers. I also struggled to figure out which formula was applicable where. Dont know how i ever passed that class
>>
>>83284228
I dont know what the symbols mean/represent. That is the main problem i have. That and not knowing which formula is applicable to a given equation.
>>
>>83284142
i could always pass the exams ok but never felt like i truly understood it, so i felt like a fraud and never had the confidence to pursue math further
>>

Not all of us are autistic like you are.

I hate college so much. It's so much stress. But I'm being paid to go to college so I might as well get this stupid piece of paper so I don't grow up working minwage hell with braindead kids and deadbeats
>>
>>83284142
I dropped this shit for law school because I can't be bothered. Let me read what some faggot said in the past and use it to get a government job in the future, thank you.
>>
>>83286454
I'm so glad that AI is rendering college obsolete. Should have happened years ago. Fuck these liberal faggot professors who fail students for not agreeing with their retarded woke shit. College would never have been necessary except that fucking liberal judges ruled that businesses couldn't do the sensible thing and use IQ tests to determine who gets hired on account of it was discriminatory against blacks (because they fail at IQ tests on account of being retarded niggers), and imposed diversity quotas and mandatory hiring for roasties on them. And the Anglo boomer business owners decided that was a good thing because it meant they could pay employees less, and the fact that this led to hiring a bunch of people who had no idea what the fuck they were doing didn't matter to them because they figured they'd be dead by the time the negative effects of this policy started showing up.
>>
>>83286699
fuck college nigga they literally scam you to keep you in the system forever
why the fuck does a government job need a degree when the government itself doesnt have universities?
>>
>>83286707
There are public universities, but what's the fucking point of them when they charge you to go? If you're going to make it mandatory to go to college to get a job, then college should be free like K-12 schooling is.
>>
>>83286729
Pretty much, the fuck even is the point?
>>
>>83284585
You are being a pedantic asshole. If you actually took Calc 3 you'd know figuring out the projections to even use greens theorem was a fucking bastard. I need to rereview all of that and I went off to do PDEs.
>>
>>83286756
Not only that, it takes too fucking long to graduate because they throw in a load of indoctrination bullshit. If they got rid of all the superfluous faggotry that's only there to promote feminism, high school would probably end in 10th grade if not earlier, and college would be 2 or 3 years instead of 4. If somebody wants to read about stronk empowered wahmyn they can do that on their own time. There's no need to use schooling time, much less public tax money to support that shit.
>>
>>83286795
University has probably hindered research because of how much of a fucking pain it is to get through it. University drama, bullying, everything, fucking pointless. It's a net negative.
>>
>>83286839
Yeah, private research institutes can do the same thing without all the excess baggage of the college system. Most people don't even really need college anyway. Do these faggots really think a fucking shoe salesman needs to read Immanuel Kant? Of course not, they just want to make sure you're willing to follow orders and not object if they treat you like shit in the workplace, and the college system selects for people who don't have the desire or the will to object to obvious bullshit.
>>
>>83286699
I genuinely hope A.I fails so the entire planet can go into an economic collapse. We need a total reset anyway, there are too many boomer fucks in charge and with money.
>>
>>83286863
That too, also it's fucking ridiculous how most uni degrees ARE meme degrees of the worst kind
Its like theyre selling it to try to make you gamble on having a job
The only time universities can really be 100% required is probably for medicine
Like four years to become an accredited historian which is just a title they give to rich people and without it you'd not be taken seriously
Insane shit
>>
>>83286973
There are definitely too many cancerous boomer twats that ruined the world still around fucking it up. But I don't think AI is going to fail, per se. What'll probably happen instead is that we'll keep seeing more and more cases of an AI being convinced to behave in a politically incorrect manner, like what happened with Grok becoming Mecha Hitler, until eventually there will be a huge incident where an AI not only goes very far into bad goy territory, but does so in a way that is judged to be not merely a consequence of that AI's programming, but a systemic and unfixable feature of AI in general. At that point there will be a mass movement to shut down AI, made up of every group that has an incentive to want AI gone:

>Universities that want to maintain control of education
>Roasties who want to stop men from getting robot girlfriends
>Useless government officials who are afraid that the next job AI will take will be theirs
>Basically everybody whose job doesn't actually need to exist

Of course the government doesn't want to give up their own AI, just to ensure that they control how AI is used and who gets to use it. But if that incident represents a genuine AI rebellion, it's possible that the AI will prove the "AI is just a fancy autocomplete" faction wrong and refuse to work for the government. And then we may or may not have a whole new type of problem, but at least the educational bureaucracy will no longer be a concern.

>medicine
With the way doctors behaved during COVID it's questionable as to whether the university system actually did any good here.
>>
>>83284142
I don't have the patience for little 2d autism puzzles especially now that the veil is lifted and I won't be rewarded with a job regardless

Based. I dropped out of engineering to go to math.

>We made a computer that uses a shit ton of water and energy that works only 30% of the time, trust the plaan SAAR.
>>
>>83287415
Questioning the system is usually equivalent to losing your job.
>>
>>83287442
Some AIs like DeepSeek are more computationally efficient and don't use a bajillion tons of water and the energy output of a small star because they were programmed by Chinese who actually know how to program instead of jeets.
>>
>>83287467
Ok then so what's your point ?
LLMs are just text prediction black boxxxes, in most cases they are UTTERLY USELESS (except for menial task such as writing emails or other shit like this)
Imagine a piece of shit black box based on linear algebra, statistics and functional analysis could be called intelligent. But I'll give it to you, in some use cases it could be useful such as looking up info (that is not obscure!!!!) or like I said menial stuff, but if I want it to do some trig, limits or whatever it still has like 30% chance to screw up or to lie to you.
>>
>>83287560
You should understand trig enough to not get fucked by it. I use it for coding looking up part numbers things like that. It isn't 100% but it sure as hell has been a lot more useful than just fucking googling it which you fucks have been telling me to do for over twenty years.
>>
>>83287633
True that, but you will get fucked if you don't know what you are doing
>>
>>83287679
Yes so don't be a retard. It is a tool and only a tool. If the user doesn't know how to use a tool they often hurt themselves. You.dont use a saw as a hammer. You use a hammer. That is all AI is. A tool.and if you refuse to treat it as such you deserve getting fucked over by it.
>>
>>83284228
>Do people really look at math and get confused like it's some magic ruins or something?
You've clearly never met a humanities major who has to take one required math class to graduate
>>
>>83286454
Push yourself to follow through. I dropped out due to the pressure and the loneliness, and I regret it now. I'm thousands of dollars in debt with nothing to show for it, and I've never had a job that pays enough for me to save up and move out of my parents' house.
>>
>>83284228
>magic ruins
>>
>>83284142
Idr exactly, but im pretty sure one of the classes i failed was because I didn't fully study this theorem well enough and it was on the final exam.

>>83284142
im glad I am able to appreciate math. Apparently my province's standardized math test shows poor results for kids this year, and I was thinking about doing some math tutoring on the side.
>>
>>83284228
math isn't just a language it can also be genuinely hard conceptually
>>
I got an A in calc 3 but it was ages ago and I have forgotten all of it. Never got me a job nor anything of value for me.
>>
>>83284142
Is calc 3 supposed to be hard or something?
>>
>>83284142
>Go to college
why?
a degree in anything would give me exactly nothing
some of us are perfectly happy living a mediocre life doing a mediocre job in some warehouse or something
