I'm a computer science major (junior year) and I'm not required to take physics. I want to learn on the side but I can't bring myself to doing it because that time could be spent on my own studies. What do?

>> No.7591326

lurk on 4chan 2 hours a day.

Then fap to iPhone photos of 20 year old 8/10's 5 times a weak minimum, mixed it with consumption of webm's of the moment of climaxes of anonymous man in younger girls faces - thereby seeing exponentially more naked female bodies of different women than any of your ancestors could have possibly seen in his lifetime.

Finally, contribute to /sci/ humor threads by coming up to captchas on face shots of people somehow more famous than anybody you know.

Any computer science program that doesn't require physics up to a basic understanding of QM is not a real computer science program.

Going out on a limb, I am going to guess "because computers run on quantum devices," which is nonsense.

So learn on the side. What else do you fucking need?

I guess your concern is that you wouldn't have enough time to study for your computer science degree and the simple answer is:

If your monkey brain is so weak that you have to study 24/7 or else you fail then you are doomed to know one thing and one thing only for the rest of your life.

I am sure you see guys in class that don't need to study at all. They either learn everything the first time the professor explains it or they already knew it because unlike you they picked up a passion for CS before even graduating high school.

They are the guys who can, on their free time, learn physics, circuits, chemistry, advanced topics of CS, etc.

Should have read basic CS books back in HS so you wouldn't have to study like a dog in college.

That's not the point. I don't spend that much time studying computer science. I'm saying that the time spent studying physics could be used for my coursework. And I don't find physics as fun as movies or playing music.

Then what is the point of making this thread?

you dont really want to learn physics, it just sounds fun maybe somewhat. forget it.

bro if you don't work/study 100 hours (in between shitposting, of course) a week wtf are u even doing on this board?

Holy fuck no people do not. I mean you'd think that something so basic as cleaning oneself would not slip the mind of such academics, but I reckon I've only gone around 2 lectures without sitting near to someone whose smell radiates out from them like a fucking death ray.

The stereotypes are true and I hate it.

>> No.7593400

Unless your CS degree is a BSc in engineering you usually don't have physics and other technical shit. And 'm sorry to break it to the freshman who had to post his courses list above, but no "good" university has such a rigid courseload made by the university. Also, if you go to a university that provides "hygiene" lectures you can't go to a very good school as this doesn't have anything to do with academics and is an insult.
