……需要通过实践/动手实验才能真正理解一门学问。不过，讲座在激发动力和激励我自主钻研方面效果拔群。我最近一直在（和孩子们一起）读 Ben Orlin 的《糟糕线条画出的数学》，这本书在激发兴趣和以有趣方式呈现数学方面做得非常棒，完全是把数学当成有趣的谜题来解，而不是很多数学课上那种死记硬背的“这个……
…practice / experimentation to truly understand something. However, lectures are fantastic for motivation and encouraging me to do the extra work on my own. I've been reading (along with my kids) Ben Orlin's Math with Bad Drawings book which is great at motivating and presenting math in interesting ways that are all about presenting things as an interesting puzzle to be solved vs. the way much of math is presented in a rote "this…
推荐看看这篇名为《为什么不要轻信统计数据》的漫画 [1]。他的书《糟糕线条画出的数学》[2] 里有一章专门讲了统计学，以及为什么不能仅凭单一的统计指标做判断。[1] https://mathwithbaddrawings.com/2016/07/13/why-not-to-trust-... [2] https://mathwithbaddrawings.com/2018/05/23/math-with-bad-dra...
Check out this comic on "Why Not to Trust Statistics" [1]. His book, "Math With Bad Drawings" [2] has a chapter on statistics and why not to trust a single statistical measure only.

我读了《糟糕线条画出的数学》这本书。太喜欢了。我本科读的是物理，现在从事深度学习（Deep Learning）工作。我这辈子都在和高难度数学打交道。然而，我也从这些书中获益匪浅。我强烈推荐这本书……
I read the Math with Bad Drawings book. I loved it. I did my undergrad in Physics, and I work in Deep Learning. I have dealt with hard math all my life. And I, too, learned a lot from these books. I would highly recommend this book…
……太不可思议了。要是他们能把这种惊叹感传递给孩子们，而不是用教官式的数学老师强推死记硬背的练习册就好了。顺便借题发挥吐槽一句，我昨天从图书馆借了一本叫《糟糕线条画出的数学》的书，非常有趣，零数学背景的人读起来也毫无门槛，大人小孩都喜欢。我们需要更多出于纯粹乐趣的 STEM，而不仅仅是为了赚钱的 STEM。只有这样我们才能真正把 STEM 搞好。
…incredible. If only they could impart this wonder to children instead of rote worksheets enforced by drill sergeant math teachers. While I'm ranting, I checked out a book from the library yesterday called "Math with Bad Drawings", it's very fun, and approachable for anyone with no math background, kids and adults enjoy it. We need more STEM for fun, and not just STEM for money. That's how we get good at STEM.
