      Earlier, Trump and Netanyahu gave Putin guarantees that they would not attack there.

      That’s what you get for believing imperialists.

      Doubt they will learn or do anything either.

        You should take a break and get some fresh air, comrade. Don’t let doomerism take your optimism of the heart.

          It’s a little more relaxing than studying calculus actually. lol

          Thanks :D

          But overall I do think the resistance has great chances of success in the long term, I just think people underestimate the yanks, and specially their masochism, too much. We should understand our enemy if we want to win, specially if we want to win in a matter that is less costly for the people as possible.

              Calculus is actually mostly quite fun, it’s just the part I’m at today isn’t as much.

              And as for the war, I stopped following the war in Ukraine within 24 of it starting because I knew it was going to go long and I’ll probably do something similar here, I just want to get a better feel for where things are likely to go first, as this is one of the biggest geopolitical events of the 21st century.

              I hope you are doing well too :)

                Doing better today. Waking up yesterday to the US attack really got to me; I was upset enough that I was shaking. Yelled a bit and sat under a tree. No heavy maths though, so not that bad.

                Which part of calculus? Derivatives, Integrals, multivariable, vector, infinite series…? The worst part for me was right into the beginning, because the leap from high school maths to calculus was too big. Also, the professors were a bunch of sadistic pricks.

                  Infinite series (with some partial fractions) and Taylor series. It started fine but I’ll need a lot of time to understand this part.

                  I got lucky that my teachers so far were good and fair, and I also had a month to study after the first test, which helped a lot to drill down the pre-calculus.
