this thing + is used to put stuff together that thing is used to take stuff away from something else

There's nothing to understand, maths is arbitrary.

you can use khan academy. I believe they give out free lectures and practice problems. if you haven’t learned calculus start with that and go onto calculus 2 after. then learn multivariable calculus and linear algebra, and then differential equations. once you do that you’re at a level where you can start learning undergraduate stuff, for which most people recommend looking at the springer “undergraduate texts in mathematics” book series. I can’t say anything about it though since I’m not at that level, but you can probably find the books themselves for free on libgen.is

>>2494 take a a Mathematics proofs class (also called Set theory), you don't need to be actually that good at arithmetic to understand higher math, all you need to be able to do is manipulate equations and add fractions, its mostly applied philosophy I am a mathematician who got C's all through calculus

what kind of math are you interested in? Abstract stuff? Topology? Applied stuff? Geometry? I recently got some students into math through working through "The Nature of Code" book/tutorials in the programming language Processing. It was a cool sort of hands on way to interact with different equations that help us define/understand natural phenomena. Creating particle simulators and cool art and all that shit. The "nature of code" is more on the physics end of things but there is a lot of cool visual stuff you can do with geometry and vectors in Processing.

Like the Gilded Age?

>>2293 this one is quite good

>>1728 Marxism for people who don’t read books

>>1733 so when people freak out when other people use the term "postmodern neomarxists", they're wrong?

>>2700 Very. Postmodernism rejects historical materialism. https://youtu.be/U4hS5NSzPxw?t=146 (Watch from 2:26 - 3:56)

For typos and misprints, I am using this PDF as a basis of comparison http://gen.lib.rus.ec/book/index.php?md5=AAF60EC535C8BCBE403DCF8E83CB5406

thanks for sharing Anon. what exactly do you need to "finish"? it looks like all the chapters are there on the page

>>2688 I need to finish formatting the other chapters properly and correcting their spelling mistakes. These have just been converted from the scanned PDF as-is, so the automatic transcriptions are still a problem. I'll keep working in this as I have time, but I appreciate any extra help as it's taking some time.

how do I compile EPUBS

>>2696 I've been working on the epub that generated after converting the PDF so I'm not sure how you would compile it from scratch. Here's what I have so far compiled to epub (again, only the first three chapters are finished).

>>2518 Feel free to have an argument hedonist.

you go to rehab

my take is that in socialism, if you don't work you get like your basic subsistence met, like you don't starve, but that's it, you don't get to enjoy the good things in life without doing some work

"He who does not work, does not eat" - Lenin

Really it depends on the level of productive forces/abundance in the society. Compare "From each according to his ability, to each according to his contribution" with "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need." I think, for example, in a socialist (lower-phase communism) Germany, you would be provided with a house and food, but probably not much more than that. In a sufficiently abundant higher-phase communism, I'm sure you could be afforded some luxury goods, depending on the level of abundance. People who don't wish to work (where what counts as work is much broader than modern-day capitalism) would be rare. The reason why "forced labour" existed in the USSR was simply because the society was poor and needed to develop quickly, etc.

>>2103 dont this this fucking retarded plus steady aim only recquires normal strenght

>>2121 Something tells me the only retard here is you, though feel free to prove me wrong.

>>2103 Yes, but not necessarily bricks. US Army had us use our canteens for example.

>>2103 >Is it really that heavy/straining to aim with a rifle for a prolonged period of time that this is necessary? Try it yourself. Hold something 5lbs (~2.25 freedom hating units) out with an extended arm for as long as you can. Isometrics will kick your ass.

>Dirty commies took away grandpa’s slaves, they should all be exterminated, blacks belong to whites and Cuba belongs to America Basically this

For what it's worth Venezuela in 1996 had an inflation rate of only 100% as opposed to back in 2018 when it reached up to 130,060%. https://youtu.be/R3CR6MzcGD8

>>763 Cuba was actually a center for sex tourism, much like Thailand or the Phillipines today.

>>2632 What exactly caused this inflation are they printing that much money ore is this some US chenanigans

Some little videos about it. At least Venezuela, it's common knowladge that Cuba under Batista was a playground for mafias and rich gringos. Videos about Venezuela https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yvh_mCQbExk Part One https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJZ9QJx_Xqw Part Two

>>2177 >workerist >genocide back

>>2182 Not an argument.

>>2177 They don't. They think Soviet system is "Jewish" and they were the first to accuse Soviets of killing 100 billion. They just like the aesthetics and symbols of Nazbolism.

P

a reactionary is one who seeks to defend the system. their reaction is one of picking up arms in the name of capitalism. "left reactionaries," are those who have a veneer of do gooder, but where the rubber meets the road, you see their ideology is just a defense of capitalism. (except with black/gay CEOs for example) so when some 23 year old freshly minted critical theory person comes on the scene and obfuscates class consciousness by directing rage towards selected outgroups, they are in practice, a reactionary leftist. in their mind, they are "on the right side of history," but when you go to the root of their beliefs, they still want to preserve hierarchy, and still enable some rich fucks to control millions of people's lives, because their analysis ends at the thin veneer of "see i said the good thing on social media."

this is also an interesting project that could have make a lot of things easier https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VOzKuEhrMY I don't understand why people keep telling there's no innovation under socialism, the way I see it, there's only innovation that's actually needed. The only "innovation" capitalism came up with is technology that dumbs down the populations into obedient consumers.

>>2169 legend thanks. uploaded this to libgen

>>2169 Don't destroy it anon, it's perfectly readable.

>>2169 Fucking awesome dude. Thank you for what you've done

>>2169 Thank you, based anon
