AI Fundamentals

How markets, brokers, and order books actually work — and what the evidence says about trying to beat them. The trunk covers market mechanics, asset classes, leverage, and the risk math every participant needs; clusters dive into microstructure, execution, the retail arenas, sizing math, psychology, manias, and strategy evidence.

The financial life skills nobody actually taught you — money psychology, budgeting, debt, credit, taxes, insurance, retirement accounts, and the math of financial independence. Walk the trunk and you have a system; pull on a cluster when something specific matters.

A comprehensive, 5-pillar curriculum that builds a complete mathematical education from foundational reasoning through advanced applications. Covers proof writing, algebra, trigonometry, the full calculus sequence, linear algebra, abstract algebra, discrete mathematics, probability, statistics, optimization, game theory, and mathematical modeling. Designed for polymaths who want deep mathematical fluency and strongest when paired with career tracks in data science, software engineering, or quantitative fields. The specific applications evolve but the mathematical structures — groups, spaces, measures, graphs — are eternal.

A working understanding of how music is built — the twelve-note system, intervals, scales, keys, chords, harmony, rhythm, and form. The trunk gives you the complete map from a single note to a finished song; clusters dive deep into modes, the circle of fifths, chord construction, progressions, rhythm, melody, and form.

A working mental model of the cosmos — how we actually know what we know (light, telescopes, spectra), what the solar system, stars, and galaxies are, how the universe began, and how the search for other worlds and life is going. The trunk gives you the full map; clusters dive into the naked-eye sky, observatories, the sun, the planets, black holes, cosmology, and alien worlds.

A working understanding of how the brain actually works at the level of mechanism — neurons firing, chemicals crossing synapses, regions specializing, circuits adapting. The trunk takes you from a single cell's electrical signal up through brain anatomy, sensation, movement, plasticity, memory, sleep, and emotion; clusters dive into molecular signaling, the neurochemical systems, sensory neuroscience, plasticity and repair, the cognitive brain, the diseased brain, and the tools that let us see any of it.
