/sci/ - Science & Math

Some also want to make money.

To get jobs and make money.

>implying money can compare to the beauty of physics

>>2296150
physics won't get you laid

>>2296136
What do you mean, true science?

>>2296158
i am a physics student and i get laid

>>2296158

I study Astronomy and Physics. But Astronomy more so.

Why must you be bound to one field of study and only get a part of what the universe has to offer. For someone that likes to study physics you really don't have a broad mind.

>>2296170
pics or it didn't happen

>>2296136
what about chemistry with out it no gas for your car Foggot!

>>2296170
There is no contradiction there.

I completely agree with you.

"All science is either physics or stamp collecting."
- Ernest Rutherford

Yes, that Rutherford.

Thats because all science is physics, just subdivision. If you start at the dumpster faggot "sciences" like social and political, it's based on opinions and ideals of people. This leads in psychology, which is based on the functions of the mind, and therefore brain(skip a few more faggot sciences) and it brings us to neuroscience(first acceptable science on the trail). Which deals with the ACTUAL functions of the brain. This is based in anatomy, and then into biology. Life is basically complex chemistry, chemistry is caused mainly by the charges of atoms, electrostatic attractions and so on.... And then it's physics. Therefore, all others scientists are faggots

Not OP btw

I agree if you mean that physics is the most basic form of science (basic isnt a bad thing in this case)

everything can be explained by physics. But noone can understand physics so well that they can explain for example brain chemistry from pure physics.

ther way it goes is:

physics > chemistry > biology > everything else

Why do I have to post this image almost every week...

Also, 0/10 OP

But mathematics is not a science. It is merely a language required to explain scientific ideas.

>>2296282
You do realise that mathematics isn't the study of the physical world, and is therefore not a science...

Because being an aerospace engineer and designing aircraft and spacecraft is FUCKING COOL?

I dunno, that's just me...

>>2296298
lol physical world is everything

>>2296136
chemistry is actually pretty much up there.

Because molecular/micro biology/bioengineering are the perfect degrees for being MAD SCIENCE AS FUCK and computer science lets you be the god of your own little universe and astronomy lets you see into the depths of the real universe and -

etc...

>>2296317
I'm not sure you're trying to say. Either your just saying it in awe like school boy to seem stupid in which case, troll harder nigger. Or you saying that maths is the physical world as well, in which case, troll harder nigger

>>2296330
>and astronomy lets you see into the depths of the real universe

Astronomy in a nutshell:
"We are staring into something, and we have absolutely no clue as to what it might be! Let us make uneducated guesses and be taken as buffoons by the entire scientific community!"

Biology can be explained more discretely through the actions of chemicals, so Chemistry, which can be explained more discretely through the actions of atoms, so Physics, which can be explained more discretely through the manipulation of universal actions, so Mathematics, which are simply a human concept used to describe a phenomenon, so Philosophy.

Thereby, the most basic of sciences is the science of asking questions. The most purest of sciences is Philosophy, which I'm sure you must consider among those "trash" sciences.

>doesn't know what a telescope/background radiation/different wavelengths are.

"sigh"

>>2296296

>math
>language

...oh no you didn't...

You are what is wrong with the education process.

Math is not a language, it's the idea of abstraction. It's logic and reason, and without it Physics can't do shit.

Also, Theory of Computation is a more science "pure" than Physics, because it is also more abstract. "Pure science" will have no practical application. Pure theory.

>>2296433
You do know that you got that the wrong way round, and that science is a philosophy...
Also maths is not a science

>>2296439
Definition of science by the free online dictionary
"
1.
a. The observation, identification, description, experimental investigation, and theoretical explanation of phenomena.
b. Such activities restricted to a class of natural phenomena.
c. Such activities applied to an object of inquiry or study."

Computation is more mathematics then science.
Although the language analogy is quite shit, it's application in science is more of a tool to make predictions about the natural world. Pure theory is pure mathematics, you need physical observations to call it science. Although it can be argued it's above science because it's the only way to ever be 100% correct, it isn't science for exactly that reason.

>>2296486
Clearing something up, last paragraph is referring to mathematics, not computing

>>2296439
You are a fucking retard, and just butthurt that you are stuck in a shit tier field.

If there are no experiments involved, it's not science.

Now fuck off.

Uhh, yeah, you guys, you can make a pretty decent living from Physics, a pretty good salary.

>>2296439
>implying the principles of logic don't exist outside of mathematics.

Math is the only true subject, why apply it to something?

>>2296519
>Implying you don't make a good living by selling your book to hapless idiots.

>>2296554

>Implying you can't make a decent salary as a physicist without being a writer

Retard.

Physics isn't the only field with which you can apply the scientific method.

I agree.But i would like to see you explaining with physics only why i prefer blondes

>>2296298
A lot of physics isn't science either then. Take for instance string theory.

>>2296296
Maths is much more than that, but it is true that physics is deeply dependent on maths.

>>2296671
The biggest criticism of string theory is that it only works mathematically and there's no physical evidence for it
