you said that 'physics is wannabe pure mathematics'. You support this statement by saying that 'physicists theorize a bunch of dumb shit, and justify it with applied maths'. You then say 'Pure mathematicians actually come up with interesting theories'. Another statement. So the reason why physics is 'wannabe pure mathematics' is because alone it just 'theorizes dumb shit', and ends up using maths to 'justify it'. Hence physics wants to be (wannabe) maths. There's your argument. I've had to make do with your style of wording but there is an argument in there. Also my question involving 'the two' was perfectly reasonable. If you followed this chat like a conversation you should hopefully retain your previous statements.

Dude, this isn't the late 90's where software devs sit in grey cubicles and wear pocket squares. You could work from home or onsite, either way you can wear whatever the fuck you want 90% of the time. You can set your own schedule and do whatever the fuck you want. You can hatch a shitty startup and hang out with other 20-somethings and get wasted and talk about raw denim at open-bar mixers (there are a ton of them) or uber-hipster coworking spaces.

Also the nerd stereotype isn't really a thing anymore. Software is so alien to most people that you could be a fucking WordPress developer and people would be like "wow you're so smart, that stuff just seems so hard". There's nothing "not really effay" about being so in-demand that you're swatting down 6-figure job opportunities.

>intuition imo is merely the point where the logic becomes an unconscious step of cognition.

that's interesting, I will have to think about that. When he was describing intuition in physics though, just kind of feeling your way to the answer, I felt that was quite true of a lot of mathematics too. the logic comes at the end as a mere "formality"

more to the point of the video, it seems as though your stance is like feynmans in that the physicist is always thinking back to something in the real world rather than theorizing for its own sake. this is a meaningful difference between physics and math. do you think it still holds up at the level of particle or quantum physics where nobody really knows what the real thing in the world is?

I tend to think of theoretical stuff like particle/quantum as "physics" and stuff like mechanics as just applied math. I'm wrong, I know, but it may inform you of my stances.

I like my position teaching math. Teaching is really a lazy profession while commanding a decent amount of respect at the university level, so it's fa in that regard. It's research that's difficult and if you land the right job you can fake it or not do any.

>you asked if he's ever done a proof

that was tongue in cheek, obviously, but my point was that most proofs are not conceived of with much logical rigor. that is done once you have the intuition, which is gained as feynman describes physicists gaining theirs.

did I say theoretical physics is just applied math? i didn't mean to. my original claim was that i don't like what they theorize about and then feynman comes along and says all physics has some grounding in the real world. I wanted another physicists opinion on whether this was true in practice.

That's such a sad fucking perspective. I'm 26 and do cleaning in a hospital right now, I still don't know what I want from life, but it's tough to wrap my mind around the fact that many of us will end up spending our lives just settling with a job or career. I personally don't care for money, so it's always been tough to motivate myself to get a job that makes a lot. I don't plan on having kids, don't want a big house, don't care about what I drive.

You need to be okay with spending ages researching something only to lose money. Not all ideas make you money and you will make mistakes.
You're very likely to make mistakes when you start off - it's a pretty big test of self confidence. Don't expect to make money when you trade.
For the first year or two you shouldn't expect to make money, you are there to learn. It's still pretty important for you to learn fast though, unless you have all the money in the world.
You also need a fair bit of patience because it could take ages before you see any money.
If you're a student you'll find it pretty hard to balance work, social life, and trading, especially at the start.
I'd recommend it if you were more interested in trading rather than the earning money bit.

This is all a great theory except software developers are complete fucking dorks who have zero fashion sense, do not know how to interact with normals, and have a highly inflated sense of their own intelligence (altho I guess models and "fashion" people are no different there). Just because you have money to buy clothes that someone on the Internet told you are cool, doesn't mean you are cool.

Proof: the entire city of San Francisco, aside from the homeless and the working class, who are the only people with any sense of actual style or culture.

And before you accuse me of being poor or hating, I worked in software and cashed out so I could avoid all of those people for the rest of my life

Also, I have lots of colleagues who's had a hand in fashion (I've had too, for a short period), so you're kinda automatically surrounded by /fa/ people. Also, beause of the nature of the work, you gotta be so updated on everything happening in the creative world so you quickly develop a pretty keen sense of what looks good and what doesn't.

Well golly, thanks fellas. I think you're underestimating how smelly the work is. I tried to dress decently when I first started, but it all goes under a heavy denim apron anyway so now it's a pair of hiking boots, some 17oz raws I bought years ago and a white tee, sometimes a synthetic buttonup for hikers, since the smell of fermented corn and barley doesn't cling to it.

It's not a huge distillery, we have just enough production to supply the city. I'm hoping we get big enough to get bought out so I can take my share and open my own distillery since bourbon is boring.

>Have to live with the fact that I am contributing to the production of what is basically guaranteed to become garbage within 10 years, especially if it's electronics based
>Have to live knowing the designs I poured so much passion into will inevitably be discarded and sit in a dump until long after I die
>Have to live knowing that ideas that could positively impact a lot of people will be discarded in the early phases of design because the company you're working for wants something else
>A lot of pretentious douchbags in the field on the more "artsy architect" side of the spectrum

Some of the cons get me down, but I love ID so much I'm not too worried about it.

working at department store as tech section computer guy right now. Also self employed commission artist. Am trying to become concept artist or comicker.

Not sure if /fa/ but it satisfies me and puts food on the table. That being said, if i'm still working in retail in a few years and haven't gone full art, I may an hero.

Hopefully that wont be the case.

Also I got hired to do the cover art for a published author recently, so I guess that's pretty fashionable. Aside from that it's mostly hentai commissions though.

Probably psychodynamic, that has been my favorite so far.

Although I wouldn't want to go to even more school after a PhD and become a psychoanalyst.

Graduated two degrees (an Engineering subfield and Philosophy) and earn my money as a """writer""". I hustle smut novellas. I think it's /fa/, just like many miserable things are /fa/.

Currently thinking if I should go into engineering after all (it would probably crush my soul), or whether I should study psychology to become a psychotherapist. My line of """work""" doesn't cover the bills.

I'm studying to become psychologist and while the profession in itself might be /fa/, a lot of people I'm studying with are super weird, and not in the /fa/ way.

i'm doing a psychologist degree, it's pretty fun

can't recommend psychodynamic theory though, it's pretty dead already and will most definitely be in the future (unless everyday practice is very different where you are, I actually have no idea how things are outside of my part of Europe), not to mention how relatively unscientific it is
