Oddbean new post about login | logout Exercises That Really Make You Smarter, Mental-math These simple mental math exercises help sharpen your brain, enhancing problem-solving and critical thinking by strengthening neural connections: 1. Rapid multiplication (two-digit numbers) 2. Extend the Fibonacci sequence mentally 3. Estimate complex sums quickly 4. Prime factorization of large numbers 5. Quick percentage calculations By practicing regularly, you encourage your brain to develop stronger neural pathways dedicated to problem-solving. These connections also aid in tackling engineering and technical challenges. This process is known as neuroplasticity, and the younger you are, the faster these connections form. Quick disclaimer: I'm not a neuroscientist, so do your own research or consult a professional. This was recommended to me by professional, but we’re all different!

Book recommendation, "The Man Who Knew Infinity". It changes your perspective on math & makes you humble & thankful. https://image.nostr.build/e5211b95538abbd395b51c12237afbf981cc7261b499e5e75a03293fe5c7bbff.jpg nostr:nevent1qqsv9dtg97wht5awx2u88py2gavm037em0r02nlcd0za07y8u7x9aacpz4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wchsygxx7urh795e65x0j25k22l7hlavqh7xss4eacu3pzwetxu26h2gl5psgqqqqqqskhvnmh

I think a really fun thing to do is to combine this with Fermi estimates. It's one thing to just try to multiply numbers together as a puzzle, but the real satisfaction comes when you realize how much you can understand and predict the world without reaching for any tools.
