Been hearing about this WWIII from a conspiracy theorist angle, the one from Albert Pike and I was initially quite intrigue a few years back but now it doesn't sound right because the current WWIII is not a conflict between Islam and the West. It is actually a world conflict from various state actor backgrounds. Russia's leader Putin is an avid Orthodox Christian. The ally Iran is an avid Shia Islam. While China on the other hand is god-less state, a communist based from Mao Zedung doctrine.
The global community isn't declaring WWIII officially and this is actually a good idea so as not to start panic among the populace but yes we are already in WWIII and this started from the invasion of Ukraine and followed by Iran's war against Israel via proxies and the looming pacific conflict that will happen once China moves to take back Taiwan.
These three strong main allies have orchestrated their state's action towards their goals in a synchronized manner. It was planned and these actions are directed against the West.
I'd say WWIII has already started unofficially and the battle field is multidimensional, it is a hybrid warfare.
During the first undergraduate degree in computer science, math courses involve mathematical proofs at some point but when it comes to my 3 unit calculus courses, I didn't remember any proofs discussed.
In the recent BSEE program's 4 unit calculus course, no proofs were discussed too.
What is interesting is that in the single variable calculus course from MIT-OCW, proofs is a normal part of discussions.
After the self study in custom made Electrical Engineering program covering the needed fundamentals and specializing in control systems and covers the 4 core courses in Physics, and is aimed at defense and energy applications, the next step will be an MSEE and a PhD in Electrical Engineering.
With this new plan, my future journey and prospect in STEM is now sealed, considering that I get out of the battlefield alive 😅
Taking the single variable calculus course from MIT-OCW and things are easy now because I took it recently from my BSEE program.
A curious question is on multivariable calculus. Engineering programs here in my country PH does not have a separate multivariable calculus course but then I realized that in the differential calculus course that I have taken recently, we touched on the topic of partial differentiation and it turns out this is multivariable calculus already.
Interesting, I got more than half thousand entries in my blog and had difficulty finding a specific post in the past but good that the platform provided me with a mass post editor.
Finally found a post related to a circuit and electronics course but no where is the crafted program on electrical engineering. I think I may have deleted it and need to craft the program again.
A long time ago I crafter an undergraduate Electrical Engineering program based from MIT OCW that is roughly equivalent to MIT's Electrical Science program. Will be using this in my self study of the undergraduate material for electrical engineering as I will be ditching the formal schooling under the BSEE program in my country. Together with this is my self study of Theoretical Physics from Professor Susskind's the Theoretical Minimum.
Due to the worsening global wars my priority for now is to shift career back to the profession of arms and to directly participate in the battlefield but this does not mean that STEM will be shun, so I will have to resort to self studying the fundamentals and aim for a formal qualification on the masters level either from US or EU someday.
