things I used to know · 2009-09-09 19:31
Last weekend I finally went through all the boxes that were packed away after University. Whilst my copious notes have now been recycled, I kept some of the exam papers… this is a little of what I used to know:
More here. I can’t say I remember the details of pretty much any of it (apart from the digital electronics), or have used the knowledge in anger anytime recently. I think I could go back and find the answers if I needed to, though. What did you know?

Heh, I am rare in that I actually use the material of my computer-science degree on a daily basis…
…but more for fun personal projects than in actual employment!

I used to know the first 108 chemical elements as a single word. But now I find I can only do the first 35 before looping back to boron.
I used to know the Chinese remainder theorem, much of John Searle’s work, the structure of the V1 striate cortex, and inductive proofs. And French.
