kind of, but that is when I am living with my dad. Right now I am living with my mom here in Passadena. She used to work at JPL, but now works for a tech company that makes 3d cameras. That is kind of why I wanted to get into physics, but I just kind of fell in love with computers at the age of 13, so I switched plans. I love it too, so I can't really ask for more.

No Im exaggerating a bit. But my interest started pretty early on. And about halfway through high school I knew thats what I was going to take.

In 4th grade I was determined to become a chemist though.

you probably got a mental illness that made you retarded, and that may have also made you think you were a transsexual even though you're just a loser. don't place the blame on the estrogen.

Well, I was strong in math and I figured I could keep playing music despite it not being my focus. I think it was the right choice

>>3510485
Maybe it only applies to instruments that makes you use both hands like the piano
I've heard that it forces you to coordinate between both hemispheres of the brain
Whereas the guitar mostly uses one hand

>>3510485

There's alot of evidence pointing towards musical training at an early age and stronger mathamatical skills, it's probably something to do with keeping count to the beats.

>>3511027
whether something is or isn't a science is a philosophical question

what 'science' is, is a philosophical question.

Everyone knows Feynman's philosophical aptitude was inversely proportional to his physics aptitude.

>>3511085
eh, fucking everything is a philosophical question

but for practical definitions lets go by the wiki definition of science as "a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe."

And since the things found by economics (and social sciences) are not as testable nor predictable as other sciences, it is not science like others. I think economics is a fine field, but not really a "science" field in that I don't give it the same trust as I give physics to be true.

Also Feynman is god, go away.

>>3511132
>not science like others.

that applies to all science fields since no science field is like other science fields

you can't use methods that work for figuring out evolution in physics, and vice versa

the criteria always changes, the methods change, the point is to somehow ground yourself in reality instead of arm-chair speculation--and economics has moved beyond arm-chair speculation and has done tons of experiments to confirm theories and models--sure the models are uncertain but that's part of the game

>>3511149
well, no actually evolution have made predictions on how animals should change given environments over time and been proven true (had the links once, but lost because I stopped trying to prove creationists wrong)

also evolution is just a proven theory of biology, like gravity is to physics

and in general there are shittons of experiments done to prove something in science and that doesn't change. Meanwhile some social scientists pass out some quizzes and base entire public policies on the results and then when it fails bill o'rielly goes "AND THE SCIENTISTS WERE WRONG! HOW CAN WE TRUST EVOLUTION NOW?" and I'm sitting there thinking "but that wasn't really science, also why am I watching fox?"

When you call something a science there's this certainty that is implied that economics and social sciences don't have. So either we start calling physics, biology, chemistry, geology and their direct sub-fields SUPER SCIENCE (which I'm fine with) or social science is recognized as not really being science-y.

degrees of "certainty" might be a practical way to think, but it's gibberish

either something can predict with certainty or it can't, nothing in science has certainty of this kind...but sure physics has the most significant figures and biology the least...economics would be even worse than biology

but still, it's looking at the real world and it's models can make predictions-like black scholes equation

I had no idea of what design or engineering could possibly be and why flying cars were a no-no anyway.

>>3511245

Wow. Someone's butthurt. Relax, I was parodying the first few posts in this thread.

Also, regarding chemistry:
If it's all memorization, you're doing it wrong. Sure, you need to memorize some things. Certain physical properties of matter and whatnot, as well as some nomenclature stuff, but don't pretend such memorization doesn't exist in physics. You stop thinking of it as memorization because you work in into a larger framework of knowledge, but the basics of any science are memorized, unless there's some convenient way to experimentally determine them at the drop of a hat with no equipment. However, once you know those basic principles everything else flows from them. Even in the much maligned organic chemistry this is the case.

Also, how the fuck is creativity not allowed? I don't think anyone who went beyond gen chem could possibly believe that. As long as it works, it goes. Synthetic chemistry involves a fuckton of creatvity. Yes, you can only do things that actually WORK, but that's not terribly restrictive and it's not like that constraint is unique to chemistry or anything. I don't actually understand where you would think creativity isn't allowed. Do you actually know anything about chemistry as a field or what chemists actually do? We live and die by our ability to problem solve creatively.

>>3511324

I'm not the person you were answering to (seemed like a joke though) but I get what you're saying and still don't like chemistry.

I find there's something about physics and chemistry people. There are the few that happen to be good at both (usually studying things on the micro level). But most that are loving the chemistry hate the physics and the ones loving the physics just hate the chemistry.

Personally, never got into chemistry and felt like I was just memorizing. Physics felt more like after knowing the basic laws I could logically apply them to all problems.

>Police Officer
>Actuarial Science

>>3511372
Not being sarcastic.
I'm a 2nd year Biology student and I had that idea of a very restricted field because of the physical constraints.
The yields and shit.
What I find fascinating is that we still don't understand most basic-common sense technical Chemistry.
I think we only managed to explain this year how alloys worked physically, with an electronic orbital deal.

It's not "Let's create molecules from scratch" or "let's turn lead into gold" but it's still pretty cool, like making synthetic diamonds and shit.
The bits of geology I studied with the mineral conversions seemed amazing to me but that's extreme Chemistry...

>>3511389

Oh yeah, I totally get that. I fully admit that, while I loved every second of it, gen chem involved a lot of memorization. It just never felt like it because I was so into it that it never took any real effort to memorize it. When I took physics though, it felt like I was memorizing most things (obviously physics involves a lot of derivation, so I can't say all the time) even though I probably did less than in chemistry, just because I didn't give a rat's ass how far the fucking cannonball went when fired from a cannon at a certain angle. While I did enjoy a couple of things (mostly optics and electricity and magnetism) I just didn't care about most of it. The most fun I had in the class was when our professor was when we had a guest lecture where another professor talked about her reasearch on the optical response of metallo-dielectric composite systems. It was all very general of course, but I think you're dead on when you say that it's about scale. When talking about the very large or very small scale, I'm interested, but on a human scale? Meh.

>>3511405

Well, with alloys I know that in general it's been understood how at least some work for a while. I don't really work with that much, so I don't know exactly, but I remember being given a general explanation ( of how carbon could increase the strength of iron) when I asked about how it was that steel got its strength. It's certainly possible that no one had worked it out exactly mathematically, but I'm pretty sure it was already at least partially understood. Materials science is still fairly young, I guess, but it's not quite THAT young.

>>3511460
I do remember an article on a fundamental explanation of alloys.
Maybe it was one peculiar type of alloy that I do not remember but it was said to have been left a mystery until then.

>>3511405

Also, what do you mean by make molecules from scratch? Like, you must first invent the universe from scratch, or assembling atoms into place by physical means, because that can be done with lasers. The actual technology is still in its infancy, but the idea has been around for a while. Feynman talked about it in a lecture, though I can't remember which one.

If you meant making purpose-built molecules, we do that all the time. That's synthetic chemistry.

>>3511471

It could have been a hypothesis, or just someone talking out their ass. It was a while ago and I don't remember who told me. Also, Like I said, I don't really ever work with alloys, so I don't know that off-hand, but I'll make sure to look for an article tomorrow.

>>3509043

holy shit is that angela from the office and the hot daughter from modern family?

>>3511485
Well for example Craig Venter said he invented an "artificial bacterium".
He actually chemically reproduced an existing genome that he put into a host without a genome.
That way he could get an infinite number of perfect mutants and sell them.

But that's not what I mean by "from scratch".
More like synthetic chemistry.
And there are a lot of constraints.
Like I think the natural caoutchouc is still better than the synthetic plastic...

What I meant was that I had this marvel that you could be some kind of wizard but of course reality is different.

>science you wanted to study as a kid

Biomedical sciences, we'll see when I'm done with this stuff what to do..

In Spain only poor people study sciences and or engineering.

Finishing a decent engineering takes an average of 7-8-9 years. And the pay is shit.
The public universities up the level to unnecessary heights due to lack of competition/jobs.

Sciences are easier, but you will earn 1500€ with your PhD, lol.

For studying architecture you need a note above 10/10+ (doing extra exams) and it takes an average of 9 years to finish it in my city.

Medicine is easier, but you need a 12/10 to get there. I'm not joking.

>>3511532
Then you just have to move elsewhere to get a good job.

>>3511513

Yeah, sadly. Though I have to say, if you ever make nylon 6,6 you can certainly feel like a wizard. Basically you get to put a stick into a beaker filled with liquids and pull out a string. Then, of course, you run down the hall and take bets on who can get the longest strand without breaking it.

Also, if you ever make an amide from a acid chloride (the normal method of converting carboxylic acids to amides is by converting it to the acid chloride with thionyl chloride first) one of the steps makes huge clouds of really noxious white vapor, and it looks a little like what I imagine potions class to be.

You fucking sold your soul, you bitch. Do you know how utterly useless that job is. Money is an obsolete way of managing goods and resources anyway. You are the scum of science.

its great to see people pursue their childhood dreams

>science you wanted to study as a kid
archeology, astrophysics

>science you ended up studying as a man
Computer science, I'm thinking about doing either physics, astronomy, chem, or neuroscience as well. Maybe even some mathematics to the side.

Any science mixed with computer science allows you to do some really awesome stuff.
