    If more knowledge doesn't make you more humble then it's unworth knowing in the first place. Kudos for both of you, lovely humans!

      There are so many good resources online like 3b1b, khans academy, MIT open courseware, etc. which you could use. That's how i study

    29:00 since we can store information on SSDs or HDDs, storing it in our brain became a bit less important, so I can understand why probably the majority of people have a less trained memory-skill nowadays. Also there is so much information out there nowadays, it's hard to keep it all stored in our heads

    My son often asks me my favourite number, and he's learned to specify it has to be an integer, or else I'll go for one of e, i, Phi, and Pi. 😂

    What's the relationship between Discrepancy Theory and Information Theory? Kolmogorov Complexity calculations seem particularly applicable.

    could be like I using AI developed black-box analysis and just hmm went to test (sent to) it was good (python) but idea was why i focused on eliminating false negatives, idea came why not false positives my only idea answer now is because maybe it is test based on binary cases true/false. They said it is not clear but my system should be usable on all systems pc/mac/ios/android.idea is from beginning a self generating self explaining self ----- structure that gives a shadow but is it real in the world? I love people challenging why and how!

    Using computers to find counter-examples should have been an obvious first step in considering any proof.
