The theory is nice but does this actually happen?

My mental model is that money in the pocket of companies is "low entropy money" and money returned to shareholders is "high entropy money".

It's the same amount, but much less effective.

“Interaction nets” might be what you are looking for. I believe there were a couple of hackernews threads about it.

What can I say. It simply wasn’t taught at our university. Instead the advanced linear algebra course focused more on abstract function spaces to prepare us for quantum mechanics. This was before the machine learning revolution.

I’ve been a paying customer since October last year. I discovered it after someone recommended it in a hackernews comment.

I’m guessing you’re mentally comparing this to all the possible books you could buy instead for that price. But how many of those books would you actually read, let alone finish? A better comparison is, having an MIT educated math tutor on call for $50 a month.

I have a bachelors in physics but it still feels great to learn new things that my education skipped. For example, we skipped singular value decomposition at my university in the interest of time. Mathacademy says, screw it, we’re teaching everything!

I'm glad the western media talked about this situation extensively before during and after the Brasilian election that ousted Bolsanero.

Everyone here is asking the right questions. How fine grained are the assessments? What is the tempo? Etc. However, I don’t see any objections that haven’t already been addressed.

This graph traversal based learning is obviously an idea whose time has come and we will probably see many similar companies spring up in the coming years.

Can you explain your objections? I don’t really understand this comment.

I am a customer of mathacademy.com, an intelligent tutoring system with a focus on math. Right now they are putting the finishing touches on their courses like abstract algebra and discrete mathematics. They already have linear algebra and calculus.

It absolutely works as advertised and I highly recommend it.

Maybe a long shot but is there a course on “Geometric Algebra” offered by ASU by any chance? The founder of GA, David Hestenes is a former professor there (emeritus).
