It’s 08:08am and my daughter is still sleeping. So, I’m taking advantage of the limited solo time I have, using the last 60 minutes or so to play catch up on Math Academy Foundation I:
My goal is to work towards Calculus I again and in order for that to happen, I need to finish the following courses:
- Mathematical Foundations I
- Mathematical Foundations II
- Mathematical Foundations III
I’m currently playing the long game. I’ve always wanted to learn about machine learning as well as take a linear algebra course. However, I recognize within myself that I’m shaky on “foundations” and as such, I’m pursuing a path that is both effective and efficient, although of course there’s an urge to jump straight into the deep end, which would no doubt create a sense of overwhelm and in fact, slow down progression due to missing requisite knowledge.
Missing Metric
Every morning, I wake up and think of Metric. Today is no exception. I’ve had the thought to get some grief counseling. I long for her. I wish she were still here. These thoughts and feelings, they are normal. I recognize that pet owners out there get it. Actually, I know that that’s the case because after posting (2) Instagram reels of Metric, the outreach has been insane.
I didn’t expect to get such high engagement from these two clips. Between two clips, about 100k views each. Hundreds of comments per video. My interpretation? My pain and suffering is not unique. I’m not alone. And that brings some solace.
