/sci/ - Science & Math

You faggots are doing it all wrong. Let me tell you what I'm doing

>CS grad with three years of experience, 25 yold
>Love science and want to be researcher like parents
>Need to make money to support my lifestyle
>Got remote software engineer job paying 130k a year
>Become fluent enough with the system that I can push out tasks by focusing for 5 h a day
>Applies to CS masters at my university, a 10 minute walk away
>Can work my eng job at university cause it's remote
>2.5 credits over one year while working full time, thesis over one year while working
>Focus on statistics materials, try to become a quant (and probably fail at it)
>Get some research papers out

My uni is a no name Canadian one but I'm not doing post graduate studies for my career, that would be retarded. Your career should afford you the luxury of the participation in research, the honor of furthering human knowledge.

>Pic related, it's me working
