Sleep issues is tough, it took me 5 years and a friend who is a doctor. The Dutch medical system failed me but my doctor friend saved me from a lifetime of insomnia. In my case it is: 0.3 mg melatonin + 7.5 mg mirtazapine (anti-histamine, it makes me drowsy) + meditation + sleep hygiene. Your experience may be different.

Math academy: I need to be told what to do. Designing my own curriculum is too much. Also, I need to pair it with a solid LLM because I have a lot of why questions and of course channels like 3B1B.

iPad: I tried pen and paper multiple times. The thing is: sometimes I just want to be in a slob and lie on my bed in weird ways and still do math. I found I need a pen, I can’t do it on pure memory. An iPad where I can do split screen: Math academy + MyScript (formerly Nebo) is nice. An Apple Pencil Pro is really nice because I don’t need to worry about connection issues.

I was doubting between: ipad vs pen and paper (the nth retry) vs Remarkable. I am happy I got a second hand ipad air. I can stick to this routine.

Low-key life changing.

I know this setup isn’t for everyone.
