About

I really like to learn new topics and whole new sections of science and life, which are often the specifics of individual people who have devoted their lives to this, for everyone else it seems like something commonplace, for example, modern mathematics from school gives us the feeling that some kind of brilliant people or in general it is not clear what created it, the same with chemistry, physics and many other sciences.

First, it is worth saying about me, I have a higher education in history and it would seem that I could give the field of exact sciences to people smarter than myself and sit quietly to read Homer and Herodotus, but thanks to the study of history, I realized how difficult it is to systematize knowledge and that history fully gives understanding with whom specialists in more complex sciences become. I will give an example from history to understand my idea, we have many separate countries, some of which disappeared millennia ago, they all interact with each other, and even several separate cultural centers of development (often the borders passed through oceans or high mountains). After all, mathematics also happens, although it may not be so explicit, for example, Gilbert's problems are solved using a combination of sections of mathematics, or a new section is generally created that makes the systematization of knowledge in the head of mathematicians even more confusing.

All this creates a mess in my head, and as I often observe, many people cannot imagine the timeline of human development, or the connection between algebra and topology, these are the so-called 'black spots' on knowledge. Such 'black spots' exist in all objects that humanity has waved throughout its existence, and the main goal of this site is to combat such spots by systematizing knowledge about a specific area and understanding why something more complex is happening (for example, homology, complex numbers, etc., come from ordinary arithmetic) and trace the path through which this or that science went to become the great invention of mankind. And it’s just fun and pleasant to delve into something new.
