I definitely see some value in this idea. If this gets off the ground and the particular subject we're going with doesn't require substantial background knowledge that isn't easily obtained, I'm in.
It looks like we may have enough people interested in Probability Theory, Though I doubt we all live in the same city. I live near DC.
Depending on how many people are interested/where they live, it might make sense to meet over video chat instead.
Have you come to any DC meetups? They're pretty good. Though sadly, I think most people in the DC group who might be interested in doing this (including me) are already signed up to learn all the math they can handle in a formal program.
I haven't. I'll see if I can show up for the next one.
Yeah, I agree.
I think that we should make a list of everyone who wants to join, split them into groups of not more than 10 based on age, and every mini-group will decide what they want to learn and go at a pace that matches their background and ability.
