>>13053228If you feel like you’ll only enjoy it if it’s necessary for something, then I guess you could try finding things it’s necessary for. I don’t know what your other interests are, though. For example, if you were interested in astronomy, you could build a reflecting telescope. That would give you an avenue to learn ray optics, and also wave optics for some interference tests. Mathematically that’s a window into compass and straightedge geometry, which can be its own rabbit hole. Once you have a telescope, you could study planetary or lunar motion for fun, which would be newtonian mechanics and more geometry. Maybe the derivation of elliptical orbits would seem interesting or relevant. Maybe that gives you a reason to care about calculus and why that works the way it does, and why it sometimes doesn’t work, e.g. in the pi=4 image that goes around twice a week. I dunno, anon. You’d have to plug in your own hobbies and interests here, but that’s at least one avenue through this stuff
