  • Programming is Concrete Math and becomes more and more Math the less abstraction you expose yourself to.

    Both are fields you have to engage in problem solving, the better you are in one, the better you are in the other.

    Don’t confuse Math with pure arithmetic operations though, its just the base concept which provides the fundament you’re building upon as you dig deeper.

    I for example was quite bad at Math up until I got interested in IT, because then I had a reason for learning and be excited about it, but I guess thats a heavily subjective thing.

    Engaging with interpreted languages and solving problems on certain sites with those also helped in further developing my problem-solving skills, which made Math easier for me.


















  • People considered woke often only focus on institutional racism and make every other form of racism seem unimportant, including those targeting so called “whites” / Europeans. (And I’m not trying to victimize perpetrators here, I’m aware of the current and historical situation in Western countries.)

    I see that institutional racism is a huge problem, especially in the West, but that doesn’t make any other form less important or significant.

    For comparison: just because in sub-saharan Africa people starve on a daily basis due to extreme poverty caused by Imperialism doesn’t mean that poverty inside industrial nations with less harsh effects is less of a problem, especially to the individual.
