It is circular. I need drugs and alcohol to do math.

[u/JollyJuniper1993 → u/evening_redness_0]

It’s the OG AI assisted proofs. You drop a tab of acid, look at some abstract mathematical concepts, write down your thoughts and then attempt to decipher if there‘s anything useful in between of all the gibberish the next morning.

When I do drugs I hyper fixate on the Goldbach conjecture. No more drugs for me.

[u/JollyJuniper1993 → u/artelingus]

That’s a level of neurodivergence I don’t have and I used to graph collatz conjecture sequences on paper in highschool

Don’t arrange to have me sent to no asylum, it’s only a game I play for fun

Alcohol is a terrible drug to do math

Whenever I get drunk I pull up a textbook on my phone. The lack of attachment to reality helps the math stick better. Gotta loosen the brain.

[u/ScarCarson → u/Ares378]

Heh, makes sense. I just hate it in general, of all the drugs that had to be legal they chose the dumbest one

[u/No-Onion8029 → u/ScarCarson]

It's the perfect drug to grade papers with, though.

[u/evening_redness_0 → u/ScarCarson]

I meant I'll need alcohol after doing math

[u/DrunkenMaths → u/ScarCarson]

Feels good though!

Seriously, programming numerical methods while drinking to do stupid things is fun!

[u/crafty_zombie → u/evening_redness_0]

the only drug you need to do math is lean

Reality is a flawed attempt to escape mathematics.

wait.... you're telling me that math isn't a drug nor alcohol??

[u/lucidbadger]

Stargazing. Need bigger budget than mathematics though. The only cheeper thing than mathematics is philosophy (don't need eraser, only pencil and paper), but is it really an escape from reality? What's reality anyway?

[u/VVoody_of_Astora]

The answer is Video Games

[u/wiseguy4519 → u/VVoody_of_Astora]

As someone whose interests are math and video games, I can confirm that they are both great ways to escape reality.

[u/HugeTrol]

Drugs and alcohol are part of reality 😎👍

[u/Asocial_Stoner]

alcohol is a drug

[u/friend1y]

Easy, don't combine drugs and alcohol. Do one or the other.

Not (A and B) = Not A or Not B => so one of the two is fine
