The goats that people fuck live after them; the math is oft interred with their bones.

You’d be surprised at how much recruiters are happy to overlook if you don’t announce it and your ASVAB is nearly maxed.

I have fond memories of the SNES emulator version. There’s a recentish remake on Steam, but I heard it’s heavy on fan service. The core gameplay and soundtrack should be great regardless.

Have you ever played Langrisser 2? It’s the natural companion to those TRPGs.

How much value do you stand to gain from work experience? And what field of study, if you do not mind sharing?

Is your circle of acquaintances familiar with Lee Kuan Yew? He’s easily among the best national leaders in the modern era.

Does Iron Maiden make it in somewhere, and if not: wrong category or insufficient quality?

There are no such libraries. I've rarely used libraries besides math and itertools for Project Euler; it's more fun to write things from scratch. This is why I'm applying for internships rather than full-time positions.
I'm completely fine with the math background being wasted. If I were healthier, I'd have probably dropped out in favor of some kind of physical work when Covid first hit. I'd prefer not to relocate or work remotely, and there are only a few plausible employers other than the university within driving distance.

Yep. It’s actually well written, as zombie stories go. Probably worth playing if you have the right console.
How would you rate it relative to Arcane?
Edit: 3 episodes in. Excellent so far except the very jarring soundtrack.

You’re smuggling in the assumption that it’s symmetric in the first place. Model as a directed graph imo.

I think that in light of the existence of the judiciary branch, which is pretty much exclusively staffed by such, lawyers holding elected office in the other two branches runs contrary to the notion of checks and balances.

Having read all but Whirlwind - it’s all pretty good at least, though the posthumously published Gaijin suffers from awful proofreading.

Replying here only to avoid unnecessary duplication.
I'm a doctoral student in pure math. The reason I have a hard time believing it is that there was computation in the same courses described. A few that come to mind:
Ring theory: primary decomposition of ideals. Of course it's defined abstractly, but pretty much any concrete exercise would involve ideals of finitely generated polynomial rings and required computation.
Differentiable manifolds: Early on, we worked out a formula for stereographic projection and its inverse. Lots of other examples in low-dimensional spaces.
When communism had a body count well into the tens of millions in the half century prior to the events described, “political enemies” does not do the category justice.
