Couple weeks into calculus 1 now, doing well, already past the chain rule and beyond. Quotient rule was a joke. Product rule remains my specialty.

I ask my professor his thoughts on quantum mechanics and partial derivatives. He's impressed I know about the subject. We converse after class for some time, sharing mathematical insights; I can keep up. He tells me of great things ahead like series and laplacians. I tell him i already read about series on wikipedia. He is yet again impressed at my enthusiasm. What a joy it is to have your professor visibly brighten when he learns of your talents.

And now I sit here wondering what it must be like to be a brainlet, unable to engage your professor as an intellectual peer.

All of the deep conversations you people must miss out on because you aren't able to overcome the intellectual IQ barrier that stands in the way of your academic success... it's so sad.

My professor and I know each other on first name basis now, but I call him Dr. out of respect.

And yet here you brainlets sit, probably havent even made eye contact with yours out of fear that they will gauge your brainlet IQ levels.

A true shame, but just know it is because I was born special that I am special. I can't help being a genius, nor can my professor.

Two of a kind is two flocks in a bush.

It's a bad tradeoff no matter what, aside for the handful of jobs that absolutely require further education. I still regret not doing a PhD because I like math.

You know that doesn't work right?

Once the you solve the firm's critical math problem they will get an intern or robot to just keep solving it and dump you on the street.

And if you try to game them and drag it along then odds are the company will either go under taking your job with them as they couldn't deliver the product based on that math problem by the deadline. Or they get impatient and publicly fire you to defect blame and you get branded as the math guy who can't solve problems which hurts your long term prospects.

Only time anyone pays you that kind of money is because they really need the answer, and those rich power players can't careless about you and sure as heck won't keep you around if you cost that much.

I used to think that too but the futher I get in education the more I believe that there are PhDs browse here in their free time. science academia is a pretty suitable career path for the kind of autist that would grow up on 4chan and jerk off to hentai or furry or whatever

its doesnt take a smart person to get a PhD, smart is just one factor that allows you to be able to obtain a PhD.

Another is schizophrenia, so just by that its a pretty fucking low bar already.
