Honestly I would go EE at the moment for more opportunity because globohomo agenda is for everything to be a Herztian battery powered piece of shit in the future. Though you will be sacrificing the high pay in the future as the market gets more saturated as others in the thread have implied. At the end of the day their electric gizmos still are dependent on oil and rolling metal.

>I have never met anyone making that much out of trade school.
Protip: everyone lies or posts the "before tax" salary because they think a larger quantity means they have a better job. What they never post are union wages, work environment or how many hours they work/ work off the clock/ have to be on call because it wouldn't benefit them.

>Mentions Sam Hyde for some reason
>Mentions that he unironically takes what Sam Hyde says seriously

>EM waves were quite likely longitudinal NOT transverse

>when altering the density of something using compressions and rarefaction becomes "traveling" and means you have a "speed".
Yeah but how?
Also all light waves gain a longitudinal component when guided/reflected.

I know the theory which is why I made the ridiculous statement proposed by said whackadoodles. You may as well have posted the book of Mormon and said that was proof of particles.

>see the angel Moroni/God pops in and out of existence whenever they feel like to go do something.

Same difference, just substitute "Angel Moroni" or "God" with "Quantum"/"particles".

>energy possessed by virtue of being in motion
Well okay then. What is motion and how is it a virtue? It's like saying that I'm a completely different person when I start walking as opposed to standing still. Shit doesn't make sense, captain.

>If you don't know what the Van der Waals forces are, it's not my problem.

I fail to differentiate it from electrostatics. Apparently so does everyone else since there's a lack of an explanation other than "hurr durr at this particular distance this "force" comes into play even though we can't explain what that is". Surely you must know though, perhaps you could differentiate it from electrostatics/ "magnetic attraction"?


>If you don't know that, it's not my problem, retard.

What an elaborate an educated response. So what is a field then since you know? You can stop passing off your ignorance onto Google and Wikipedia anytime.

>I don't tend to eat coal

No you don't. That's what TREES ARE FOR.

I'll take "density" for 1000 carbon credits , Alex.

>t. retard
>You... you sure about that one?

Who are you quoting? Do you even know what a "quote" is?

>But higher CO2 concentrations do appear to cause some cognitive defects on short exposures.

Did you also know that mustard gas concentrations also appear to cause some cognitive defects in short term exposures as well?

>Einstein was a nobody and never invented anything meaningful.
FTFY because it actually is more true of a statement. Also the first "discoverer" and inventor of the AC motor was Hippolyte Pixii, but unfortunately he had absolutely no clue what the fuck he was dealing with. Tesla's inventions include (but not limited to):
Tesla coil
Violet ray
Remote controls
three phase electric power
Induction motor
Telsa valve
Tesla Turbine
Wireless telegraphy
Vacuum variable capacitor

>You keep talking about "filled space" as if those words mean anything unless you define them.
Because no one has named a property of space yet. It's nothing other than a different pressure mediation..."filled space". Time is a measurement and I still do not understand why people use it to reify something that has no properties.
You are insisting something that has no properties to define something else that has no properties. You people are insane.

>That's because the axis is tilted and not because of precession you retard
Cause and effect you brainlet. What caused the earth to be fucking tilted?
>>10083364
Are you saying we have 4 seasons per 26k years or because precession is the reason why the earth is tilted in the first place? The previous retard just threw me for a loop is all.

So let me get this straight.
>Almost (((14 billion years ago))) nothing exploded into something.
Based on no empirical evidence...
>Personally I don't believe the human mind that exists now can ever comprehend how anything came to exist, we just simply aren't physically able to understand how something can come from nothing, it's unnatural.
Yet despite this you are still sure that nothingness indeed was a state or cause of the universe?
>If there ever was truly nothing, which at one point has to have been true, how can something randomly appear?
That's a question that answers itself. It can't.
>I observed and reified nothing
>I was in nothing to observe it, I am obviously not nothing
>I, a thing was in nothing, which is no thing.
You can't even make it word in a basic sentence without making yourself look like a baseless mediator for some secularized belief system. "In the beginning nothing created something", you may as well just assign a god or deity to this nothingness since there's no other logical way it works.

You have two choices:
1. For absolutely no reason, a random cause appeared and started motion in the universe. Everything in the universe is limited and based off the magnitude of this one event happening, it's cause lies in the realm of God or some deity/being that has the capacity to spontaneously make the necessary ingredients for a universe. Why a deity or God? You have nothing else to fall back on that's why. How can you or anything be a fraction of a universe with a denominator of "0"?
2. The universe is a never ending nor beginning chain of effects of which some turn into the cause of more effects. With no beginning or end, obviously we can most assuredly and safely assume your quote:
>Personally I don't believe the human mind that exists now can ever comprehend how anything came to exist
There is no limits to the speculation of contemplating existence because if it never starts or stops then there is no limits to begin with!

An engineer, a physicist and a mathematician are in a room with a psychologist and a blond woman.

A blond babe sits on a chair and says she will let any man take her but they must approach in half measures only every time she says "Green light".

The physicist, realizing that half measures would mean never reaching the intended target because closing in on zero is impossible to arrive at through fractions.


The mathematician instantly realizes that approaching one in half measures will never truly result in one and thus ignores the challenge completely.

The engineer on the other hand begins approaching the woman every time she says the word "Green light"

When asked by the psychologist why he was approaching anyway the engineer replies;

"Well for all practical purposes, I will be close enough for all my needs."
