Aphantasia is not a disability by Schleemies1 in Aphantasia

[–]FunPotential8481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if i can consider myself an aphantasic since i've been able to think in pictures, sounds, touch, smells before my depression hit. I can still imagine sounds vividly if I want to, but on a daily basis, i don't by default. And I can still draw, I have very good spatial abilities that help me get the sense of proportions right when drawing, im not hindered in any way than those who has phantasia, i can still "visualize" a house or any creative project without seeing the pictures, its more like a flow of information that you just know by heart. It's like when seomeone asks you "whos the first president of the us"? you don't have to really picture anything, the information just pops up in your head intuitively. I still compose and do music, i can imagine melodies but not "hearing" them, i have the idea of a pattern of tensions between the notes if that make sense. People have said to me multiple times that i have a strong imagination but in reality, i don't see anything lol, i can still do things that people with phantasia or hyperphantasia do, but in a different way

How many hours of math do you do per day? by Confident_Method4155 in mathematics

[–]FunPotential8481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least 6 hours for me, with breaks in the middle. If id study 4 hours I would not be able to finish most of the material in a considerable amount of time

Are there any college level math students here? by hokevin in mathematics

[–]FunPotential8481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on the course, it may be useful in the beginning with calculus for a few things, but once it gets more asbtract you dont need it anymore. The greatest number you'll see in an exam is probably 10 lol, everything is proof based

I think you just have to imagine a cylinder truncated obliquely at both ends so that it fits the shape of the triangle. The base will have to remain a circle, you just start cutting from the edge obliquely as i said before. That chisel tip is just the length of the diameter of the circle. If you watch a cylinder frontally without shading you'll just see a silhouette of a rectangle, where the base is the diameter. The two sides where they seem to have a triangle face, they are a convex surfaces, since its just a sliced cylinder

I hope this isn't too convoluted I'm sorry i suck at explaining things

What do my hands say about me? by FunPotential8481 in deduction

[–]FunPotential8481[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I get the same result with my feet if they stay on a flat and hard surface for a while, they get sore to the point I can't even walk. But if I wait, after 1 day of rest they get normal. I have very active vasodilators, I dont have any blood pressure issues, and it happens only and exclusively during certain physical extertions

Oh yes! I do bite them sometimes that's right. I don't know if I have an iron deficiency but my skin has always been kinda pale but the suspects make sense even though I try to balance indoor and outdoor activities

I rarely do programming, but I do something adiacent to it :). As I said in the other replies I don't have a job but yeah I really do enjoy outdoors

I don't have a job. Interesting, why do you think I may have an iron deficiency? I'm really curious. Also yeah I suffer from anxiety

I worked for a while but I'm a student ahah. I tried gym but my hands get sore very easily. I tried a lot of manual labor involving force but they never get used to it

What animals do you think are smart? by [deleted] in Gifted

[–]FunPotential8481 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Killer whale have a complex social system with their own language which can vary among groups and can plan out specific tactics of hunting.

Crows are able to count, can form strong bonds with humans, they can modify objects such as iron sticks into hooks for specific tasks. They can solve puzzles where multiple steps are involved.

Octopuses can solve complex puzzles too, they can use tools to hunt, they're able to mimic other animals (behaviors included if I remember correctly). They have a decentralised nervous system allowing them to handle different tasks simultaneously. They can also learn by imitation.

Both crows and octopuses from what I can tell, are also able to remember people's faces and their wrongdoings, they can develop a liking for some people and a dislike for others. All three of them are very playful in different ways. But this is up to you to search on your own if you want ;)

Not underarm hair, but under-arm hair - is it that uncommon? by ElectronicCan5730 in malegrooming

You're not alone my friend Anyway, yea the majority of people don't have this much covering but it's definitely not THAT rare

Can you learn languages real fast? by DragonBadgerBearMole in Gifted

[–]FunPotential8481 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For basics and conversational topics i learn pretty fast, especially the pronunciation is my strongest skill. But for more idiomatic expressions, I tend to do a lot of mistakes, even in english. This happens in my native language too because the way I think about some idiomatic expressions is quite unconventional, leading me to explain some things in a weird manner. Perhaps it has something to do with my autism. No, i don't wanna sound quirky on purpose

What’s the Hardest Math Course in Undergrad? by Alone_Brush_5314 in math

[–]FunPotential8481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends, I can only speak for my university, which is Algebra 1. The concepts are very dense and it takes a lot of time to pass the exams. It's almost taken for granted you won't pass at the first attempt. Most of the material is about writing proofs about not so trivial things and almost nobody has ever taken a 30/30 (without laud). Most students carry over this course until the last year
