All mathematicians are charlatans who make up stuff so they'll have jobs making the rest of humanity wonder what the fuck they're working on.

We need to return to the good old way of experimentation where you tried various things until shit stopped exploding. Fuck calculations, hit that shit with lightning until it starts working.

Algebra I can handle, same with matrices to a certain extent; complex differentiable calculus in regards to variable fields with no real understanding in how the fuck it relates to anything at all on the other hand...

As for the physics and mathematics requirements of the fields I'm looking into, I've already completed the required courses - so I'm not too worried there.
