/sci/ - Science & Math

Why are you doing philosophy as well as 2 subjects that are actually worth doing?

How do you nail jelly to the ceiling?

>>3277133
by freezing it first
>>3277135
All of them are worth doing

What university are you at?

Why are you going to college?

where, what university? how long did it take you/what stage are you at

>>3277192
nah, philosophy is shit.

>>3277208

If he's at a decent university then it's more use than maths.

>my opinion is right

i would guess those three courses probably compliment each other very nicely.

>>3277218
ahahahah!
best be trolling.

>>3277228

Look, just because the philosophy classes at your community college aren't any good it doesn't mean the best universities in the world teach the same stuff.

Philosophy provides a good logical foundation for math and physics. I'm sure that he'll be able to find legitimate work with either of the other two majors and philosophy could help him excel at doing it.

>>3277236
All philosophy beyond what covers the foundation for math and science is useless.

Enhancing your knowledge on things that arent practical hold no value to living a healthy productive lifestyle and are therefore shit

philosophy = shit.

go do some sciences and figure some awesome shit out that can help knowledge of what is 100% true along.

How's the job market for mathematicians/physicists/philosophers?

Are you me from the future? If you are, how's life?

Pataphysics is the best physics.

Practice tends to be shaped by theory anytime the question of application of science arises, and also on a general level, through ideologies (personal, group, political, economic).

And your formulation of the a priori possibility of "a healthy, productive lfiestyle" is suspect. Such a lifestyle needs to be shaped by many ideological procedures on the collective and personal level which determine your notions of healthiness and productivity.

>go do some sciences and figure some awesome shit out that can help knowledge of what is 100% true along.

And what is social reality, human-constructed reality then, a lie? And why isn't its exploration and mapping out as relevant as technological advances?

Why did you waste your and everyone else's time getting a philosophy degree?

oh howdy /sci/, just dropping facts on you because, you know, you guys sure do get carried away with your fundamental biases.

How did you go about triple majoring? Like was it an immediate option available to pretty much anyone or did you have to overcome some obstacles first?
Also, what does your course load look like? And any advice for someone who wants to triple major as well?

>>3277500
The idea of a triple major was never mentioned anywhere. But I asked them if I could, and they said yes. It started because I was just in love with the subjects and I signed up for lots of classes in them, it just kinda happened. I recommend you only do it if you are seriously very interested in the subjects, so much that it is worth taking all the time to study them.

I do take a lot of courses although not as much as you would expect because they overlap. Still a lot though. It's a lot of work, don't underestimate it.

Overall triple majoring is a huge commitment but if you really are in love with the majors it can be enjoyable

>>3277529

Good stuff Im glad you didn't follow the people here saying SCIENCE IS THE ONLY WAY.

You might actually be able to make meaningful discoveries

>>3277790
I have a triple major in evolution, quantum cosmology and hard science and you are wrong, I am invaluable to society, I shit golden opinions.

is OP god

>>3277127

>triple major
>/sci/
>/sci/ducks fall for it

I wouldn't expect a bunch of HS to understand the hardships of University but nobody taking three majors is going to be wasting time of /sci/. You can't even fathom how much work that is.

If I have a particle in a box. Then measure its position. How does this effect the wavefunction of the particle? and subsequent measurements?

>>3277192
Wrong, you have to put the nails through before freezing it.

Or you just trollin!

>physics, math and philosophy
>philosophy
you just ruined it

sorry, I left. didn't know this thread was still alive.

>>3278079
Uncertainty principle. You wouldn't be able to measure it's position in the first place.

>>3278051
True, except it's summer right now.
