in my defense, I've only actually shouted in a library twice, and both times it was about statistics
@linen shouting about statistics is a good sign that you are my kind of people
@ansate fuck statistics
I mean it's pretty neat actually, but I learned an entire stats course in 2 weeks bc I was too depressed to go to class so I don't have the best perspective on it
also the way the math dept teaches stats is stupid useless for actually doing anything with it EUGH
@linen if i had a lot more time
and patience i would seriously try to overhaul our stats education. undergrad: swapped homeworks w a cs guy. grad school stats is finally reasoning instead of memorizing
@ansate I'm glad grad school is better! I took a looong time to finish my undergrad (which was only partly in math) so I was way too burned out for that noise
what are you studying?
@linen ❤️ i did some econ and some applied math. now i’m out getting paid to count things
@ansate score! (I hope? do you like counting things?)
one day I would really like to have a job where I get to sit in a quiet room and organise and reorganise small colourful objects according to various properties, that sounds so nice. the only reason I held onto my bead collection for so long was because it was so soothing to sort it
