    I want the entirety of mathematics indellably etched into my mental model. I want to see the math behind everything in reality the way Neo saw the matrix code in the walls of the grubby apartment buildings.

      One way is making raytracing shaders for older games. I recall one korean dude whose patreon was raking in ~50k dollars a month, several of his releases/posts were about adding raytracing to Fallout 4

        Thanks! Sounds like a significant learning curve.

        Not that I’m opposed. Currently reskilling myself from bored accountant to hopefully some sort of IT wizard. Just learning everything I can get my hands on and doing projects like building / maintaining a home server, building a PC, switched to Linux last year, and coding some small projects in Python.

        I just feel like I’m learning such basic things and won’t be able to actually make money with any of this for years. It’s frustrating lol

    I’d upload a few languages. Instantly being able to speak and read an array of languages and traveling the world would be fun.

    Speaking Korean, I live here for 4 years already and despite pushing moderatelly to learn it, I don’t speak it at all. Everything I learn I forget very fast again.

      You’d need both time travel and teleportation, or else you’ll find yourself in space when you travel forward or back in time. The Earth isn’t a stationary object

    If I could have something magical: I’d like to be able to accelerate my thinking so I can have as long as I want to think things through

    If it’s gotta be real: easier to use memory, I feel like I have no idea what’s going on bc I forget shit, but it’s not forgotten I just didn’t remember that memory at the right time even though I had it…

    Talking to people hasn’t been going well lately

    Whatever skills would result in what the deep mediators to control autonomic functions like heartrate and could mimic death. I don’t just want the control thing though I want the whole kit that comes with it which would likely have some martial arts. figure like and ideal shaolin type of thing.
