Hello comrades and welcome to the third improvement megathread of August! bonfire

As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • Do you have any plans or goals for the following week?
  • Do you have any streaks? For example, "sober for one day." Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
  • If you don't have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
  • Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

    What I've been doing:

    I continue to study math and software-related stuff, but I had to renege on some of my plans I set here a week ago due to some actually good things happening.

    I succeeded at my goals regarding physical exercise last week. Light exercise, three days out of seven last week in order to make this less unbearable for me.

    I have been studying particular hanzi, including how to write them. I did not have a convenient way of studying how to write them, which hindered my ability to remember and distinguish them later. Since my last attempt, Duolingo has introduced relevant features, which is rather helpful. I have been learning to write them by hand, practising with at least 5 characters every day.

    Plans for this week:

    Keep re-learning math stuff. I nominate topology and graph theory as my subjects to focus on this week.

    I nominate databases and database-related stuff as my focus for this week.

    Keep up with the physical exercise. Engage in it at least once this week.

    Streaks:

    Still touching grass every day.

    Duolingo Putonghua 35-day streak after a couple of years of pause.

    Resources for others:

    I can be your resource if you have math questions. I can also find you actual math resources and textbooks.
