/sci/ - Science & Math

ass

I taught myself programming and fundamental computer science before I got to college, I think I actually knew less about computer science after I finished college, CS is a fucking joke degree

Id trust someone who has learned and experienced things himself over someone who memorised facts any day

The Blank Slate by Steven Pinker

What makes you feel dumb? What is the thing you just don't get?

For me it is physics and not Newtonian stuff that is very simple. Relativity is just something I have a hard time wrapping my head around. I get gamma and the math behind it, but what the hell? I have had the twin paradox explained to me a hundred times. That's witchcraft.

I am in my final year of a BS in mathematics and I feel this should be easy enough for me. I might spend a few of my last electives on some first year physics if it winds up bothering me or just give up physics might not be for me in general. I am not bothered by my lack of quantum physics understanding that's for people with physics degrees to care about. I feel I am missing some basic shit and feel dumb.

So what don't you get that you feel you should?
