What would you like to learn about?

Comment author: snarles 14 August 2015 04:27:56PM 2 points [-]

Sociology, political science and international politics, economics (graduate level), psychology, psychiatry, medicine.

Meditation (empirical/practical emphasis), and more broadly the psychology associated with executive function and attentional control.

Set theory, topology, deep learning. Probably most math/computer science topics.

Anything that someone thinks they have a really good intuitive explanation for. Omniscience was one of my life goals when I was growing up.

Given your strengths, you might find First concepts of topology by Chinn and Steenrod a nice introduction.

Mathematical modelling in ecology.

Fossilized pterydophytes (just an ordered list of scientific articles would do.)

MADS-box genes in plants (especially not connected with flowering).

Perhaps some tutoring in German.
