this is an awesome video about combinatory game theory, the game Hackenbush, and some crazy places you can take it.
it doesn't use any complex fomulas and only uses basic notation, except for the notation that it introduces itself.

School can be good when you do it on your terms and arent there for the degree. Go to the classes that only have good professors and on topics you feel you need the most help with. Skip all the junk you dont need just to get a degree, particularly classes with shitty professors.
@freemo @Hyolobrika yeah, i'm not against educational institutions as such. i'm not so much talking about academics, but … school school. forced labour during most of childhood is a terrible model for education.
Another tip is if you are not there for a degree, then looking into "auditing" a course/class and one can save a good amount of $$. :D
@freemo @Hyolobrika yeah, fuck school, basically.
