Do not fully know the entire context, but based on what’s given, it seems you enjoy math or majoring in mathematics. I think this isn’t an overreaction on your end, this is asshole behavior.

To clarify, You have the option to learn math, you chose to learn math. I don’t think that’s greed or entitlement, you had the opportunity to learn math and you took that opportunity. Working comes into play when you are in a dire need to make money, and it seems you’re not in that current situation.

I was once questioning my self-worth, since I wasn’t working at community college. I remembered in 2023 I was doing arithmetic, and in 2025, exactly 2 years from when I started, I was doing multivariable calculus. Within 2 years I’ve surpassed every low expectation set upon me: people thought I was going to do a trade, I graduated with an associates in mathematics, and I’m now doing a bachelors in electrical engineering because I fucking can.

This random non has no idea of your back story, don’t let him get into your head and make you doubt your self-worth. If you plan on doing engineering or physics the math that you are learning right the fuck now will be applied. By the time you start working there will be so much fucking money that you won’t have a care going into debt. For fuck sake, I’m a sophomore, I could quit now and make $100,000 a year as an FPGA developer, technically speaking.

Yea I’m trying out tuta it supposidly is end to end encrypted. My hope is that I’ll take a look at it, and see if I like it. It does have RSA encryption so from my preliminary testing it is believable.

My god, yes. Just yesterday I stopped using duckduckgo since even that has now become increasingly infuriating with AI. I’m using this search engine with no AI it’s based on database queries and to go to a specific website there is a small tab you can use. I love it because now I get to appreciate and use textbooks (whereas i would have chatGPT’d it) because of how limited the queries are and the limited selection. It’s not like google where it dumps the most relevant information at the top, you have to search for it. Anyways, if you were wondering it’s called marginalia search.

I unironically said this in my group chat, “proton mail is becoming more and more sketchy as being a privacy focused mail service” just like how signal is becoming more sketchy as a instant message service. There are things proton mail does such as logging activity that shouldn’t be the case as a paying customer, and yet here we are. When I request privacy I want it to be private, as in don’t give my data to anyone. it seems for that to happen it must be community driven and decentralized.

Why did I read this as nodes. Am I seriously that married to CS that I read Nudes as nodes (as in nodes from linked lists).

I guess it doesn’t help that the they’ve used the character ‘•’ in place of the ‘u’ to solicite the word “Nudes.”
