you'll definitely find this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhgwIhB58PA interesting. Here they discuss the (lack of)efficacy of "visual learning"

> Even using recursion is rarely a good idea as you loose control with your memory layout.

Used recursion at tons of Codeforces / ICPC problems with some caching(commonly known as "dynamic programming")

To name a few concepts: "Permutation & Combination", "Proofs with induction", "Probability". I did learn some of them from university courses, but writing code for them(in terms of coding problems) helped cement few of the them for me.

I used to do some "competitive programming" back in university - which I think helped me grasp quite a few Mathematics concepts.

Thanks for sharing. Hope you’re doing well now. Wondering where do you write daily, is it like a physical diary or digitally?

I’ve started writing of late, but I like writing on a physical diary. The only problem I’ve with physical diary is searching the entries based on a word - which I often find myself in the need of.

> A few years ago I was excited every time I saw such concepts. Now it makes me tired.

Spot on. Except for me I got tired of them after a few months.

A bit tangential question.

> I read it once and took some notes.

Curious to know how you go about taking notes for the books you read.

Bingo. Not everything in this world needs to be gamified.

> The dating app gets paid when you get married?

Wondering how it can be enforced from business model point of view.
