They're more lean so they are a bit more muted than edamame, but the texture is quite similar (if a bit less "snappy) and the flavour profile a slightly nuttyer. Overall, they are quite similar, but they are easier to find near me ;)
Found a few others you might want to look into :
-stand up math. The videos are a bit more shallow in and of themselves, but they do touch on some quite obscure and deep math subjects.
-numberphile. Great one offs, a bit less entertaining... Took me some time to get into it but there's a huge backlog
Good luck with that. It must be difficult in a field where everybody's got a head start on you. But i believe you can do it [insert never give up japanese man here] as you get more comfortable, pathways should start to form in your mind which will truly help to cut down on the cognitive load of memoryzing all the different variations of formulas ;)
You're the first poster so it is more mikely the other one copying you. But i decided to ask anyways bcus who knows, maybe you know each other and there was a coordonated effort (see https://lemmy.world/post/44130348)
I totally get this, it's so frustrating when you know there is a geometric, aproachable and intuitive way to get at the subject and your proffessor just throws formulas at his students •π•
On a more practical note. If you have some time to spare, i really would advise you (if you've got spare time ofc) to watch videos by 3b1b, the gray cuber, 2swap, lines that connect etc... While you don't come out with a complete mastery of the subject, you do get a really deep intuition which i can't seem to get from teachers. + you get to learn that math is trully FUN rather than jusy interesting ;)
Either way you are doing good ദ്ദി√(^^ᗜ^^ ),>
