They have good intentions, but I don't think this is a real meaningful protest. It like having a march for "morality". It sounds nice and everyone wants to say that they are moral yet people do immoral things all the time.

Thanks for the information, wish me luck!

So you would say Spivak calculus -> proofs(optional) ->Rudin.

Hello, I would like to start learning mathematical analysis. I have a basic year of calc( on course in differential, one integral) and a course in multivariable calculus. Will I be able to learn analysis or do I need to learn formal proofs of some sort? Is linear algebra necessary? Also any...

Thanks. I think your right that I am unmotivated but I can't find anything to motivate me, most of the courses/classes offered here don't interest me too much, there is always the chance of transferring but the classes we have here are kinda limited and I don't know If I'd be able to do say...

Hello, I'm 21 years old and no where near completing college. I'm currently in an engineering science program at my community college. I was originally going to an average state school for computer science and I did terrible at it and failed, this could be attributed to transition to college but...

Very exciting, If some evidence of life is found it would be a huge shift, life found at least twice in one solar system would mean life is pretty common accident in the universe.

I'm going to flip the topic for a second, is a career and physics, and specifically academia really as bad as I heard? This probably would be my ideal career, but I've heard many discouraging things lurking around this forum.I would love to go into pure physics, and do something more on the...

Computer Science isn't my thing. Took classes in it and did poorly. I'm in engineering right and so far I'm not that interested in it honestly, there are some very interesting things you can do with it for sure but doesn't mean you actually get to do anything you want with it. I'm personally...

After lurking around for a bit it seems that going into physics seems like a sort of hell. There seems to be little jobs outside of academia, witch is a long shot in itself. So what STEM major/field would you recommend. Something that's interesting, makes decent money, is in good demand, isn't...

So, should I go with physics? This I what I want learn, there are many fascinating topics in physics, and In a perfect would without worrying about employment, working conditions, competition, loans, money in general it would go straight for it. But sadly we don't live in that world. If so, what...

I guess I'm just pessimistic, my idea of academia is living off of cup noodles and cold pizza in a shared studio apartment for 15 years while being out competed by genius foreigners While industry is better I have view that I'll be working on something I have no interest on but little to know...

Well there is plenty of interesting topics in physics, but my favorites are astronomy/astrophysics and cosmology, however I only have a popsci level of knowledge in these areas and I would like to keep my self open till I get better understand of physics, and that's assuming I even go to physics.

I don't know what I should major in, to keep it brief I've already took a year of calc, chemistry, a semester of ordinary diff eq, and physics. Right now I am in generic engineering and can branch out to electrical, industrial, bio medical, or mechanical or possibly transfer to another uni...

Well I don't mean just sliding by with bare minimum grades, I just meant I still have academic "competence" if you know what I mean
