Teaching myself linear algebra.
— WHAT THIS IS
A slow, deliberate pass through linear algebra from first principles. 3Blue1Brown for intuition, Strang for rigor.

The honest reason: half the papers I want to read in graduate research are gated behind matrix algebra I never properly learned.

Started. Watched the first three 3Blue1Brown videos in one sitting.
