I went to an engineering school and saw a lot of this, though at a much lower level. Smart kid coasts through high school and is never challenged enough that they have to developer study skills. Then they crash and burn in the first term at university because it's the first time they've encountered something that's genuinely hard for them. It can be a tough lesson.

@mrmeow7666 Жыл бұрын

In my experience with engineering school, it's over as soon as you think of yourself as smart because you start to slack off on studying. I liked to think of myself as an idiot and because of that I would spend weeks prepping for exams. Your success in engineering school (or anything difficult) is all about your motivation to succeed, not how smart you are.

I remember my oral exam in analysis. It was 2 hours in length as well. Two professors (one of them known to be harsh!) summoned me to a class room. They started to ask me about what do I know about the norms L^1, L^2 and L^\infity. I gave definitions and how L^2 is special as it's Hilbert space. After several minutes one of them asked me to state and prove a fundamental result in measure theory. I stated it well but struggled to prove it (one direction was easy, but the converse was hard). One of the professors was telling me to try and consider a simpler case. I couldn't see it. I stalled for 2-3 minutes, but seemed an eternity. My head felt hot and I was sweating, anxious and I thought it was all over. Tears were sliding down my eyes. I concealed them while looking at the black board. Then, totally unexpectedly, before they said to move on the next question, I remembered a definition involving absolutely continuous functions and used the Radon-Nikodym theorem and I proved it! The next and final question was, to me, a standard Holder inequality result. I passed!

I was a physics major in ucla. During my junior year (2021-2022) I saw Tao walking his bike outside a coffeeshop, Elysee (for the ones familiar with the area). I said "hello, I am a physics student and I am struggling with a problem of analytic functions in my Mathematical Methods in Physics class". He told me to wait and keep an eye on his bike. He grabbed a coffee takeaway, and went on to explain in the simplest way possible the problem I had trouble with before running off back to his office to get work done. lol At that moment I realised mathematicians are super nice to be around, unlike most physicists.

Hi Tibees. I’m a long time fan. I love math. I’m about to graduate with my bachelors. I’d thought about earning a PhD since I was younger, but now that I’m here, I don’t think it would make me happy. It’s incredibly uplifting hearing you state “I don’t really know what these questions are asking” because I also don’t understand. Math is intimidating, and it’s a subject I’m passionate about, but I think it has the capacity to drain the life from my soul. I think I’ll be much happier working in software, exploring other hobbies with my friends and family, and learning math at my own pace.

I literally just found this channel - by way of a Quanta Magazine video(The High Schooler Who Solved a Prime Number Theorem) - earlier tonight after clicking on a previous Terence Tao video by you(The Test That Terrence Tao Aced at Age 7). After looking through some of your other videos, I noticed that it had been a couple months since you'd uploaded anything; so I was kind of shocked when I just noticed this new submission ten to twelve minutes ago(now more than twenty probably) AND it also had to do with Terence Tao... So shook. Anyways, that prompted the decision for me to do something I hardly ever do on any platforms which is to leave a comment: Informative with such a soothing voice and style to the vids. Especially loved that pencil hovering over text action. Great content!

Story sounds similar to what I had to experience when I tried studying for the first time at university. The bad thing is: Cutting down on gaming or other interests is a matter of resolve. But there are many things in life one does not have any power over to change or improve them. No money, no stipendium, working every night to finance food and social life, being terrorized by neighbor, construction workers and parents and many other things are what can break a person and bring one to fail no matter how hard one tries. In week long university projects professors had to tell me to lean back and let others have a chance at trying to solve it in more than a few minutes. But all the skill and IQ in the world can not help against massive sleep deprivation and starvation. I may have been one of a low fraction of cases, but the social system in germany exists only in theory. When you really encounter problems, the bureaucrats and institutions are rather trying every trick to save on costs and make you leave frustrated without getting what is rightfully yours by law. I ended up with no room of my own, no money, taking care of sick parents and a lot of other problems, while at the same time everyone demanded me to give it my all at university. I did each weeks practice homework just an hour before the deadline (mostly in my car while driving to university) or quickly in class, while others required several days to solve the math problems. I simply did not have enough time, otherwise I would had to cut back on my 3-5 hours of sleep. It ended up in me failing university and having to retry another time. Second time did not work without any money either, so I worked 6 years, saved up money and finished studying on my third try.

I can relate tbh. Not to the genius prodigy part obviously, but I did breeze through HS and through my first two years of law school. My classmates studied pretty much every day while I read the contents of the test one or two days before and spent pretty much most of my time playing games or reading other things. That ended when I went through third year, I started missing classes, thinking that it didn't matter as I could just read a book on the subject and do well anyway, but because I was quite arrogant I took classes with hard teachers, and I failed the semester because I didn't prepare for the oral exams. After that I lost my scholarship that covered like 90% of the cost of my studies, and I had to repeat the year. Now, I can't say that I completely changed after that, I continued to study less than my other classmates, and I'm still quite confident in doing so, but I took care of having enough time to prepare for every test, I managed to come back from that one bad year and this year I passed the final exams (an exam that covers most of what one studies in law school) and finished my studies. I think that if I hadn't taken classes with those strict teachers and hadn't failed that year I wouldn't have been able to pass this exam, because I would've overestimated my abillities, so, in a way, I'm thankfull that I failed.

It is even more ironic given Eli Stein's stature in harmonic analysis!! And there is even more irony. When Terry was 12 in Adelaide he was take under the wing but Professor Garth Gaudry who - wait for it -specialised in harmonic analysis. Garth also introduced Terry to Alan McIntosh at Macquarie University and Alan was - wait for it - an expert in harmonic analysis who solved Kato's square root problem and along the way publishd with Abel Prize winner Yves Meyer of wavelet fame and other heavy hitters like Ron Coifman. Both Garth and Alan are dead now (I was a student of Alan in the early 1970s) . Eli was a student of Zygmund (who was instrumental in gettng Calderon to Chicago university) and proved many major things in the subject. The approach he followed in his undergrad Fourier theory and functional analysis courses (which form 2 of the 4 volumes of his Princeton Series) was to do those subjects "properly" and if you have mastered that material the questions are understandable. Eli used to say things like "This morally has to be true" and when I look at how Terry explains stuff I see a lot of Eli. I did an oral undergrad exam in analysis in 1973 and even though it only counted about 20% I still remember my interrogator saying "Mmmm..that is a novel approach....but what can you tell me about Riesz's Theorem on compact perturbations of the identity?"

It takes character to study things even though you don't like them. I'm specifically talking about his quantum physics exam. Things which we may not think are important for learning a subject, may still be emphasized in a course and grinding through them takes tremendous character, especially if it's a subject one may like. "I'm talented in other fields so this one doesn't matter" is a naïve thought process.

and Einstein claimed to have said, "Does the moon seize in existence" maybe he meant that to be the error correction code to the moon with the Reihmann zeta function and it's algebraic Pythagorean expression with Parallelism in abstraction to quantum chaos. Purely Abstract as Serial in forward direction 1 track mind. And Einstein only put it into words the way gravity, deficit, Newtonian freewill had during Issac newtons discovery of supposed Constructs of determinations for calculus extractions of who is God who does not roll dice.

Wow 18 wild stuff indeed yeah I think I saw somewhere I was trying to find him talking about math being very exciting and not too difficult at first I guess before we get lots of tests for those working through school systems and then it becomes very rigorous and difficult and then obviously one hopes as a career more exciting rather than being steeped in a sense of things being very difficult in a bad way… the techniques of how we learn just from KZfaq alone seem to be changing so much wow I’m glad he had the experience of trying to please such accomplished mathematicians and mostly failing arguably at such an early age - twin prime conjecture so far unproven but a more bizarre in a sense conjecture is proven I suppose due to his experiences in life that informed his proof quest indeed… it will be truly strange if number theory and other facets of mathematics are overwhelmed ever more quickly by computational advances wow Sinead Bovell had a Tiktok recently about a bot mimicking/beating human Diplomacy Game players of which I think I was doing a tiny bit in my youth myself - mathematicians will have to be ever more attuned to not just programming languages (I actually only know FORTRAN to any tiny level of usefulness myself ha) but also bot developments and how they impact their area of mathematical specialty I certainly feel - Tao perhaps will be the lucky one that somehow cajoles a bot to spit out some something that is extremely likely to be a major part of answering the twin prime conjecture somehow maybe!?🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖♾😍🥰😘😻🤩🤯♾🗽💯💯💯🌈🌈🌈🎬🎬🎬…

I'm studying calculus in my computer science degree and I can say that after completing calculus 1 I could get maybe 1% of the terms used in this video. I could see how each subject of study like the prime numbers theorum could be interesting to study. And made sense conceptually. But I had bo idea what it actually entailed beyond what was showed. Harmonics sounds very interesting too. Number theorum sounds more elementary than it probably is, like the sort of thing that would inlclude base mathematical expressions proofs such as 1+ 1 = 2. I like mathematics, but especially when it's applied in practice and when it's utility is clear. If it sounds engeniously fitting like pusle peaces snaping in place perfectly it makes it even better. Math is awesome, tho it isn't easy it is fasinating. I think i'll take the rest of calculus even tho it's optative in my university version of computer science. I actually got the highest score in my first calculus exam. I could not believe it when i saw it but I did ask 1001 questions to the teacher in class, so it makes sense. I love math...

Haha that's ok because you have never gone through real analysis, algebra (theory of groups, rings and fields) and functional analysis. Calculus is generally taught in high school nowadays and you can even get college credits by passing AP exams and continue to take multivariable calculus in college (normally vector analysis at this point) just to finish up the rest of the calculus topics. If you are doing computer science then you don't need much advanced math but just linear algebra, differential equations, discrete math (combinatorics, graph theory and such) possibly numerical analysis as well (scientific computing at this point) or linear and non-linear optimization. No rigorous math for you at all like real analysis, complex analysis, topology, differential geometry and stuff.

@@pashaw8380 Yeah I've been studying linear algebra on my own as my degree don't include calc 2 and 3 even as optional things to take, so it looks like I'll learn it as self taught as well. I've managed to project a 3d cube on the screen using nothing but python and pygame, I made my own line and triangle drawing algorithm, along with matrix rotation and projection to project and rotate the cube on screen. I've been reading up some resources online about computer graphics so it's not reinventing the wheel but more recreating the wheel following the steps the people who made it optimal did. It's hell a fun to figure this stuff out and make ur own instead of using premade graphics API(such as opengl). I hope to get a fully fledged software renderer for simple geometry in python soon enough and have it as one of my many personal projects to show off my skills in a job interview. It's not about the practicality of selling such a thing but more about learning the inner workings of such functions instead of just treating them like black boxes. I might switch to software engineering instead of CS, as it would work more with game engine creation than regular computer science would, which involves the sort of stuff I've been learning on my own, which is of great interest to me. I also plan on making a procedural terrain generator with different terrain regions being modified by sin waves of different frequency in order to have biome terrain variation instead of the usual look that perling noise gives. As u might be able to see I love creating complex systems that produce complex and organic behaviour using math to achieve it. I'm also autistic asperge which might explain why I love complicated complex topics so much, and breaking them down, recreating them on my own. If I could live forever I would take all exact science subjects on university, from math to astrophysics, to artificial intelligence and finance, I just don't have enough time to live as a regular human being in the 21 century to learn all I would want to, so I'll focus on programming for now and learn all other subjects as a hobby. I just love using my brain to think about and learn complicated subjects. It's hell a fun!
