How to opt out of the Karma System

The thing with the linear you learn in computer science, if its for transformations, is that you only go up to 3x3 matrices. Linear algebra is quite easy to do though, if you have a reasonable textbook you could teach yourself.
What other bits are you missing asides your linear?

I'm actually not too badly off on it,
as I was helping write a textbook
on it (sort of the uninformed editor of such),
but could use the refresher class.
As to the rest, I don't have the total credits,
but probably have enough of the expected
background. The undergrad where I went last,
had tremendous overlap between the two degrees.
I think that I was 4 or so classes away from being
able to get a dual major. So, it wouldn't be too
big a deal. But, I'd have to re-do the classes for
an MS, essentially. As there was no overlap there.
So, it would mean starting over.

Do you want a Phd so badly though... Is it an excuse to avoid getting a job for you?

But of course.
Eh, I don't know if I want one all that much.
I just rather like the school atmosphere.
And I THOUGHT that I'd be able to fall
in love with research - but I kinda think not.
I'll probably just wind up a bum again.

Well as long as you publish a paper now and then, you can pretty much be a bum after you get your PhD. Personally if I go for one myself i would like to have finished it in my mid twenties.
