I would really love it if there was some type of Leetcode for math. I grew up in a very liberal artsy environment and was actually warned against taking advanced math for most of my life. It wasn't until college, taking requirements for my CS major, that I realized I actually find it fascinating and have an aptitude for it - but then college ended and I just have barely done any math since.
If anyone has any resources on this or general advice I'd love to hear it. It seems to me like all the coolest cutting edge stuff in Tech right now requires a lot of math so I'd love to start grinding at it.
Recently I saw a link here which was like "from 0 to 100 on 4 pages" by Faymann (physic also needs math lol) and know of cheat sheets for higher mathematics. But I admit, a cheat sheet isn't an exercise. And may be there are some "from 3d to 2d on 4 pages" for mathematics.. possibility to google for mathematics for engineers and getting some books of the Grad-Masters would work offline too.
Or, just try to read some papers on topic you need anyway on arxiv? Or try to crack one of the 100 year mathematical problems :)
But truly, I would go to physic and do the math if I were you. But I'm too lazy
The problem in my eyes isn't only up to the algorithms that will shape the next billion dollar thing.
The problem is also with the name (finding). It should reassemble a thing you do online like searching - the result yielded by this action should not be the same in shape as in the real world - like cooking: means the result can be eaten in real world. if one would be able to do cooking online, and some other result other than eatables/food is yielded - then, it's a bad choice for the naming as cooking is already associated with mixing stuff together and apply some sort of energy for denaturalization.
Almost all possible words exist by now as a tm or some sort of. It also needs to be some verb.. google is now associated with looking something up on the web.
As for contrast: "go and duckduckgo it, I told you"
So, this is the main problem: to get it into the daily usage in spoken language.
Algorithms by themselves are easy to get by nowadays. Just imagine '92 and looking up code. Impossible! How did they survive w/o stack overflow!
Today you have a lot a lot of knowledge at you fingertips. We have fascinating possibilities today. What lacks is a need and an actual problem that can be solved online. Just like helping elderly to order their things online and call that alexa.
Almost any personal physical need can be addressed online. What Problems are still to solve? I know a few - but don't tell ya xD
So, the market for individuals users and their very special needs is already saturated. On and offline. Left are robotics (which alone will revolutionize everything and introduce new needs) and data crunching which both together lead to knowledge generation in all forms and change both, the products and it's production.
Of course more granularity can be made here. But, no need - almost anything is relying on either the one or the other, like f.e individual transportation, which is a direct result of new production/products or/and data crunching. General abstraction.
So the next big thing could just be a revolution grade product. Or a good trained AI.

My 2 cents.
