    Hey Simon! I would love to know more about the problems you had with your code and how code for science works! I'm in uni for college engineering starting my master soon (hopefully) and I'd love to work on something that eases mathematical/physical computation so knowing your approach/problems might help me get started! :)

    Hello Simon. I loved your videos and have been watching for around 3 months say, and it is safe to say your content is really enjoyable and inspires me to work. I recently watched your 'How to study effectively' video. It was really informative, however you stated that you should try to timetable around 8 hours of work a day. I am fine with working that much, however I physically can't. I am a student and have school from 8am until 4pm. I try and timetable 4 hours of work a day. I know people say you shouldn't ask how many hours to study and that it changes from individual to individual, however how much did you study a day on school days?
    Thanks!
