What's the hardest thing you have learned without a teacher and how did you do it?

The internet / books don't count as teachers

a) I already have books I'm reading
b) The topic of this thread is not "What books should I read"

the wiki is shit and I wouldn't listen to it anyway

>>9049248
Then you're a fucking retard, who can't even do basic research and find that the texts and suggestions are actually pretty solid and used by universities.
So STFU you effete snob and get out of /sci/ if you don't trust us.
Rude cunt.
>>
>>9048939
>books don't count as teachers
Teachers do literally nothing that books can't do except maybe give you an F when you're too lazy to do your work.

In the end, the only way to really learn something is to apply your knowledge to something else.

Undergrad calc sequence through DE, I got my hands on some textbooks in high school and it soothed my autism.

I got cocky and thought I could do real math (algebra and analysis) after that, boy was I wrong.

Yeah, Ron Graham and Donald Knuth sure do write brainlet tier books, you mong.
>>
>>9049378
I didn't say that.
I said YOU, YOU'RE the brainlet.
>>
>>9049384

You clearly implied it.

The fact that you can't follow such simple logic suggests you are actually a brainlet.
>>
>>9049428
I didn't clearly imply anything.
>Such simple logic.
My friend, is isn't logic when you read between the lines of a subjective thing (language).
So... nice try, brainlet.
>>
>>9049436

Now your argument is "you can't make a logical argument with words"
>>
>>9049445
No, you dickhead.
When it is based on non-objective topics, then logic doesn't apply to it.
Because it isn't logical.
It is to do with human emotion.
You're just so stupid you can't even check your argument for flaws. :'D
>>
>>9049449

That's the stupidest fucking think I've heard in my entire life
>>
>>9049464
How is it?
The statement I made wasn't mased on an objective (logical) metric.
It was asserted based on opinion (emotion, subjective).
So, if it is subjective and you're trying to apply logic to it, of course it isn't going to work.
You really are incredibly stupid.
>>
>>9049488

If two people have different opinions on a subject they can have a logical argument about it.

Some opinions (like yours) are obviously retarded because they contradict themselves.
>>
>>9049520
>If two people have different opinions on a subject they can have a logical argument about it.
If the arguments doesn't relate to ethics, yes.
Ethics being morality and personality.
Or, they can set up 'rules', which forms a logical framework (debate).
We haven't, so formal and informal logic don't apply.

>Some opinions (like yours) are obviously retarded because they contradict themselves.
You're the only person showing themselves up here.
By failing to understad such basic concepts as formal and informal logic and when and when not to use them.

Nil desperandum, I'm sure you're very intelligent... to your normie friends. :'D
>>
>>9049278
I fuckin hate books. I hate teachers too but goddamn do I hate when a book says something vague or does something without explaining and there's no way to figure it out. Sometimes it seems like books are intentionally written with some bits of information left totally out just so there's no way you can learn anything unless you have a teacher going through it with you.

1. Read the passage again, you're probably just not getting something
2. Google it

If neither works you're probably just stupid

ITT: autistis telling other autists that they're the most autistic. Quit turning threads into cesspools of downs, I'm sure you're all very clever. As per the question, probably EM. The teacher wasn't very good and I could barely understand his heavy accent. I taught myself by reading through the textbook and then trying to explain each section to either a classmate or my cat. It was pretty easy after that

CS is a degree for idiots who are too dumb for math or engineering. (And no you moron that does not mean that the authors are brainlets)

It is glorified programming (a skill barely above bricklaying, just payed better) with a bit of simple math sprinkled here and there, to justify the word "science".

Does anyone have a link to that massive torrent (100+GB) of a bunch of PDFs organized according to subject? Pic related is the computer science folder.
>>
>>9052027

I'd like to have this one if possible, I'm considering applying for CS and I'd like to learn a bit about it before, considering I'm worried about whether or not I could do well as I failed high school beforehand, and I haven't had any math/science classes since then. All I have is a meme masters in law.

That folder alone is absolutely massive anon. It would take you years to get through every PDF in those folders (at a brainlet reading pace, of course, for you shitposters out there). Anyway, I just realized the "last modified date" is indicated in my screenshot and with some luck that will correspond to the day I downloaded the torrent and therefore could find it on warosu. Unfortunately it could just correspond to the day I moved it to my USB.

Pic related is the math one.

Suggest a method of hosting these and I can link you to the comp sci one. Never done this before. Hopefully something that won't end up with me in prison.

Yeah, that's the creation date unfortunately. Weeks or even months after I initially downloaded it. Not much chance of finding the warosu thread. Not very likely the download link would still be up anyway.
>>
>>9052040
>>9052053

Oh well, thanks anyway. If it's so massive, is there a reading list that's more concise but still kind of exhaustive on the topic, at least as far as a reading list that can be tackled realistically can be? And I wouldn't know how to host these, but thanks anyway.

>learn shit without someone to baby you
Lrn2autodidact fgt pls
>>
>>9049539
That's because you're a brainlet. The rest of us find most books to overexplain
>>
I kind of brute force it.

For instance to understand A I must understand B and C, I know C but to understand B I must learn D, E and F, I know F so I start studying D and E, then B then finally A, then I test my knowledge.

It is kind of like a lottery, I have to be kind of meta and estimate how long it will take and whether I should just put it on hold and move onto something else and it might be months before I do.

t. auto-didact learning to code
