your eyeball is literally deformed and elongated which stretches the retina and leads to tearing, retinal detachments, and macular degeneration, and worst case blindness. Doctors don't tell you this shit because they want you to be an ignoramous paying for prescriptions, lasik (which does nothing for your ocular health), contacts, etc until you get the bag of bricks dumped on your head when your 40+ and realize you're fucked.
The Progression of Myopia Theory:
>myopia is just genetics bro
>wait, there's too many people getting myopia for evolution to explain, it must be something else. ummm we aren't sure... but that's ok cause there's nothing you can do to stop myopia progression anyway just deal with it and keep buying new glasses
>apparently indoor time and electronics are associated with myopia. I have no idea why bro... so weird
>OKAY BRO it could be a number of things but we can't agree on it. In fact myopia may be related to all these things including bright light exposure, eye strain, amount of close work, genetics, high contrast.. we just can't figure it out bro :( but please keep coming for checkups and working on the computer for bill gates and your overlords
>k we have contact and eye glass lenses that can slow down myopia progression you can ask your local optometrist for them (but only for children cause no research for adults shows anything, cause there's no research). Oh but you can't buy the special glasses in the US only the special contacts because we can actually make way more money off that. You should just get LASIK if you care that much :]. Then pay us thousands when you're 40+ and going blind cause your retina is fucked
basically they gaslit society to keep people glued to their desks until they realized they can finally make some fucking $$$ off the issue with halfway decent treatments that would at the same time allow people to stay glued to their desks for the overlords.

Why haven't I ever seen a math operation (o) like this:
[math]\frac{a}{b}o\frac{c}{d}=\frac
It would seem quite useful for calculating averages from fractions and whole numbers. The closest operator that I have seen to this is the "parallel operator" that adds together two numbers in the denominator and multiplies them in the numerator. You could say that the use of this operator is meaningless as any expression using it could just be expressed as [math]\frac{a+c}{b+d}[/math] without reference to the operator. But the same applies with the parallel operator where [math]a||b =\frac{ab}{a+b}[/math] could just be [math]\frac{ab}{a+b}[/math] without making reference to the operator. Is it just because we deem the parallel operator more useful for things like parallel circuits?

I want to have a complete understanding of pharmaceutical principles, medicine classifications, effects, etc.
An understanding as fluid and reliable as my knowledge of AoE2.
However, I don't want to waste money on this.
I've found a biochem introductory course on Youtube. Would you guys recommend any particular supplementary material?
I want to avoid things like the mathematics "Trivial" meme in the middle of a diagram. Just digestible, useful information so we can move beyond "X is good for you" in a vacuum, or provide a reasoned basis for that biohackers stuff.
