RE: I used to be really good at math but then
hey it was hours of hours over about a week or two, then I said 'eff this, I'm going to play everquest.'
Did you end up solving the proof?? I kind of regret giving up so early on that proof, looking back at how long I've spent on many other things, the time on that albeit it seeming a lot to me at that point was nothing compared to what i could've done but yeah, that perserverance lesson I could've used back then :). My life has been quite a hop and skip adventure since =).
Well, it's never too late! In the end I wrote a proof under somewhat stricter conditions which was a straightforward approach to get the work in an acceptable shape. It's still on my todo list to revise it, though I know how to do it now. It's just that the math can sometimes turn into quite a beast, and you need the correct mindset to do it :)
