/sci/ - Science & Math

>>9883546
A real tripfag

>>9883565
Never heard that one before.

>>9883546
>Math
I like to be able to fully understand content. In every other subject you will always be working with content which you know but don’t truly comprehend.

>>9883572
I'm pretty sure mechanical engineers comprehend and understand how complex machinery works.

I'd shoot einstein every time, cuz jew

>>9883585
No one understands any natural phenomena because no one understands the physical basis of reality. If you kept asking, “Why?” to an engineer/physicist/biologist,etc., at some point, they would respond with “I don’t know.”

>>9883593
Engineers don't need to worry about natural phenomena.

ecology/evolution because I love animals, specifically insects. Find it all fascinating and love learning.

>>9883546

i study math because I am an autist that can't handle reality and need a place where I have complete control.

>>9883546
Statistics, because i hope to work in finance so i can earn money and hopefully have someone love me

>>9883643
Plans after college?

>>9883712
move back in with my parents and make music and do math, lol. honestly, i don't know, i am terrified because I am probably too low functioning to succeed in academia.

>>9883648
Same here except for the faggot part, I'm planning to pair it with CS.

>>9883546
When will mods ban all the namefags?

Cognitive sciences and robotics

>>9883593
>, “Why?” to an engineer/physicist/biologist,etc., at some point, they would respond with “I don’t know
So? Reductionism is shit. Engineers dont care about what happens at the absolute bottom fundamental level. It's not a matter of laziness, it's just not relevant to their purpose l.

>>9883585
Lol. The average engineer barely remembers what they were taught.

>>9883546
I'd shoot Einstein because then we wouldn't have nuclear weapons.

Did Einstein even do anything of note? Relativity is a bigger meme than quantum mechanics.

>dude wormholes lmao

>>9884125
>dude I never studied relativity

Physics, because I like unemployment

>>9883546
Physics and mathematics, because being the smartest guy in the room is fun

>>9883598
>Engineers don't need to worry about natural phenomena

Excuse me? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tacoma_Narrows_Bridge_(1940)

>>9883546
Thank god you no longer trip on /fit/.

Job market since I have uncreative brainlet job after years of grueling studies with high-tech curriculum.

>>9884078
this

I hate how people glorify Einstein. Dude fucked up. There have been countless times we almost nuked ourselves on accident and we still could and that is just on accident.

Geology. I like rocks a lot.

maths because it's all I'm good at.
Want to specialise in a mix of probability, statistics and optimisation.

>>9883546
I double major in math and CS, but I want to see what I can do at the intersection of CS theory and physics theory. I think I'm gonna have to get creative in the future if I want to do that. I just really like studying physics on the side (taking classes when I can, auditing otherwise)

i'm a welding teacher and study material science (?) to become a welding/material proof guy. i don't know how this is called in english. i will work at the german material proof office soon.

>>9884068
I definitely agree, but what do you expect me to do when one moment they're teaching you about Inventory and stock management, and next they're explaining Navier-Stokes?

I'm looking for a solutions manual

biochem, specifically cytoskeletal shit (Tubulin PTMs + kinesins).
why i dunno, i enjoy molecular bio, just a curious kid who likes using fancy instruments.

>>9884125
Ever heard of a GPS?

>>9884271
>GPS clocks need their times adjusted for the time delay in communication
>ACTUALLY IT'S BECAUSE OF SPACETIME WARPING WORMHOLES LOL

>>9883546
Pharmacology, I wanna make cheap generic meds for people.

Analysis, Combinatorics, and some basic Number Theory. Already finished my degree just do math for the fuck of it.

>>9883546
i study theoretical physics, focusing on quantum and statistical mechanics

>>9883546
Physics and math, both because I would like to further the human scientific endeavor and also to get money

>>9883546
Would just shoot Einstein, he has been dead for a long time. Shooting a dead body would mean nothing.

Biophysics, I like cellular modeling

>>9883546
biomedical engineering

its cool and i was too stupid to realize how easy comp eng/comp sci is

starting my phd at a shit school now

>>9883546
Aerospace engineering because I wanna fly aeroplanes for the Air Force

>>9884522
that's not pharmacology, that's drug creation, biochemistry/molecular modeling

EE because is the most broader field in all of engineering. For example, I'm taking classes in Convex Optimization, Algorithms and Data Structures, Statistics, plus my EE curriculum.

>>9883643
this is the correct answer for math. no social ambiguity for me thx

>>9884616
>most broader
Struggling with your writing requirements buddy?

>>9883546
Extractive metallurgy because real life Factorio is fun.

>>9883643
sounds more like programming

>>9884560

Ah, I fucking love combinatorics. Never change, Anon.

>>9884125
>Did Einstein even do anything of note?
Ever heard of the Photoelectric effect or the Brownian motion?

>Relativity is a bigger meme than quantum mechanics.
Hahahahaha. No.

Criminal justice, because everything is subjective within certain bounds and it was easier to float through college. Then I took my worthless degree and did nothing with it. Because just like middle school, just like high school, just like university. I plan to float through life.

I finished EE and I'm now an engineer. Life doesn't get better after kids.

business but i hate it about to drop out

Brandon is a fag.

>>9885301
Goddamn dude.

>>9883598
Brainlet detected

>>9883546
I already have a degree in mechanical engineering, and I am now studying medicine (yes, formally, as in I went to a Tech School for one and am now going to a Uni for the other and am looking to go to medschool). After I finish up with medicine, I’m going to start working a job like an NP to start raking in the money to start working on personal projects and even further study.

I am looking to try to pioneer the field of nanomedicine; using nanotechnology and genetic engineering to cure diseases and solve problems on a microscopic, technological scale. And if I fail, then so be it-- at least I will have left some work and thoughts behind for others to build off of and filled my life with something to keep my busy instead of useless and depressed.

>>9886726
LOL go back to soc

>>9883607
redpill me on that annon. im interesed in entomology and biology in general , how does it pay? what would be the best biology field to pick

>Civil Engineering
I just like the idea of designing structures. There's not much in the way of new research in the field but the jobs in industry pay a lot where I live.

>>9886919
Your idealistic dreams haven't been crushed yet? Mine didn't even last until I was 20.

Computer science because I like math but want a good job out of school

>>9887063
I do kind of have this nihilistic view that I’m not going to accomplish anything and none of my studies matter, or at best I’ll end up stumbling upon some revolutionary technology and end up getting assinated by some bureaucrat/aristocrat.
But otherwise no, not really.

I’m 28, and still pursuing those idealistic dreams. The most likely reason is probably just because I haven’t hit any roadblocks yet, I have yet to encounter something that proves my direction wrong. Sure, I’ve encountered resistance from people saying I won’t amount to anything or maybe I shouldn’t do what I’m doing, but I still have yet to see anything or talk to anyone that even nearly debunks my goal. So I’m still going.

>>9883585
Someone screenshot this retard.

>>9883546
Cs/ceng
Computers always fascinated me, like how does voltage jumping up amd down in a chip abstract up into me typing this post while shitting.
By now I have a pretty good understanding of each tier, but the magic of it didn't disapear

>>9886899
Meh, you all can reach for the stars. I'm content to waste my insignificant blip on the grand scale that is everything.

>>9883546
I'm about to start my PhD in Archaeology/Classical History.

Yes yes I know (inb4 Social Sciences fag) but Astronomy/Physics is another passion of mine - so much so that I'm considering doing work on Archaeoastronomy, and how our predecessors used stars to align their monuments (also forming the basis of many primitive religions).

Music theory.

>>9884078
almost agree with you... on the other side of the world Heisenberg "failed" to calculate the critical mass, damn he was a hero... alas, it was only a matter of time that somebody will come up with the solution, usa or germany it was the same... the mistake of the atom era had to happend

>>9883546
Industrial design
Because I like to build and design beautiful stuff

group theory so that i can understand galois theory

>>9887599
please i need to know more of this... im studing science and technology of space (something like astronomy and aerospace engineering) but i love antrophology... in my country there isnt a good antrophology program, where are you applying?

>>9887718
Anywhere in the UK - Archaeoastronomy is kinda frowned upon (as in the past it had connotations with Astrology and other shite like that) but it's taking off again.

I recommend Kent if you want lecturers in Archaeoastronomy - notably Efrosyni Boutsikas (she's the local specialist).
