# Hi there 👋
> ***It soon became clear that the unconscious instincts for logic and language which had enabled me to succeed were not shared by the large majority of my students.*** - Susanna Epp (author of [Discrete Mathematics with Applications, 5th edition](https://www.amazon.com/Discrete-Mathematics-Applications-Susanna-Epp-ebook/dp/B07M87BWRC))
[Bjarne Stroustrup on the importance of Mathematics and Computer Science fundamentals](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QxI-RP6-HM)
:computer: I contributed a lot to [Futurecoder](https://futurecoder.io) and [OSSU CS](https://github.com/ossu/computer-science/), so check them out!
:brain: Check out my [Elements of Abstract Thinking](https://github.com/spamegg1/abstract-thinking)
💬 Ask me about: math or code questions!
📫 How to reach me: `spamegg1` on Discord, or [on Slack](https://join.slack.com/t/spamegg/shared_invite/zt-1vhzofzrl-ucBjeQEQkl9Ol3wpvL9VPw), or [on Matrix](https://matrix.to/#/!GQFJgtvxFByBVixTAi:matrix.org?via=matrix.org)
⚡ Fun fact: I [review](https://github.com/spamegg1/reviews) online courses.
🔭 I’m currently working on: my own combined Math + CS curriculum, focusing on deep connections and foundations, ideas, history, abstract thinking and problem solving.
🌱 I’m currently learning: formalizing mathematics in [Lean4](https://lean-lang.org)
🤔 I’m looking for: suggestions with interesting and creative ideas to teach logic gates, ALU / CPU, assembly; something simpler than [Nand2Tetris](https://www.nand2tetris.org/).

## 🚀🚀🚀 Math + CS curriculum progress update 🚀🚀🚀
(Apologies that I'm not able to share more. It's private for now! Imagine a mad scientist working in a cave... 👨🔬🕯️🦇🌑)
Work started January 2023. Expected finish 2033-2038, or when I 💀⚰️🪦
***Year 1 (2023):*** Very productive!
First few years of "producing a lot of useful by-products."
- Wrote a complete roadmap. *I know exactly what I'm doing!*
- Gathered a ton of materials, books, notes, bookmarks, videos that will take me years to distill into the perfect mixture.
- Finished solutions to [Epp's Discrete Math book](https://github.com/spamegg1/Epp-Discrete-Math-5th-solutions/) which will form the backbone of the curriculum. (56K+ lines of LaTeX code, over 1000 pages of PDF when rendered.)
- Wrote a ton of code: 613 files, 260K+ lines of code. Roughly corresponds to Intro CS + Core Programming. Even [contributed to open source a bit.](https://github.com/scala-native/scala-native/pull/3396)
- Came up with [Abstract thinking](https://github.com/spamegg1/abstract-thinking) which will play a big role as another backbone. *Highly experimental!* 🧪
***Year 2 (2024):*** (June) Progress somewhat stalled. Struggling with motivation 😥.
It's too hot and nice outside! 🌅🏖️🏞️ I need to replace thermal paste on my CPU.
But I'm constantly coming up with new awesome ideas! [Videos on this channel](https://www.youtube.com/@benjaminkeep/videos) are god-tier and exactly what I was thinking about...
- Studying a lot of low-level stuff. C with [K.N. King's book](http://knking.com/books/c2/index.html) and Rust with [Rust Foundation book](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/book/).
Useful byproducts continue:
- More low-level with [Modern Systems Programming](https://github.com/spamegg1/modern-systems-scala-native).
- and progress on [Abstract thinking](https://github.com/spamegg1/abstract-thinking)
- passing unbearable hot summer days by solving [Advent of Code](https://adventofcode.com/) and thinking about how to teach the subtleties of [problem solving](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DxTQiJuAoc).
- *October 2024:* work started on [Tarski's world](https://github.com/spamegg1/tarski/). Turns out parsing first-order logic is hard! 😆
- Started learning [Lean](https://lean-lang.org) for coding proofs.
***Year 3 (2025):*** I started work on a project for [an AI company](https://abaka.ai)
on formalizing mathematics, so progress will be slower.
