Anything beyond calculus is useless

Anything above college level calculus is just astrology-tier circle jerking that serves no purpose for anything useful except cashing those sweet tenure checks

So this is how you cope with peaking at calc.

Does that include differential equations?

Are Calc 2, 3, 4 good or too high level?

All calculus is useful.
27D negative root of imaginary base aleph numbers and that kind of shit is bullshit

So what about the part of differential equations that deals with damped harmonic oscillation? Is that useful?

Multivariate calculus, the calculus of non-Euclidean spaces (differential geometry), and analysis are all highly useful. So are ODEs and PDEs. A lot of curricula put linear algebra after calculus and that is also highly useful.

That's all college level.

Because damped harmonic oscillation uses imaginary numbers so I hope you're good with those. You should also look into Grassmann numbers and see briefly what they are then you can see their applications. It's a good example of seemingly useless math having practical uses in physics

I wish more math pros were like Wildberger and attacked the aetheric basis of mathematics, instead of continually carving out more esoteric branches of study
