the soience jews have driven the word "hypochondria" nearly to extinction because for them, every illness, real or imaginary, is an opportunity to turn a profit selling pills.

medically speaking hypochondria just isn't very useful
the body comes with a vast array of diagnostic abilities that only the patient can currently access, so a disturbance in those abilities is itself still a disturbance within the body - just one within the diagnostic system instead of the system the diagnostic system is monitoring

Because it is easy as fuck.
(if IQ has more than 2 digits)

Also you don't have to become a compulsive liar and sasquepedelian.

Also it is not """science""" but a constructive, creative and engenering Job.
Science is about writing boring journals while pretending to whatever you do fulfill a intial hypothesis.
It requires the memorisation of buzzwords mostly made up of mixing latin and old greek words, which just serve the purpose to obfuscate your work so nobody can see your lies.

Also mith a minor degree in CS you can earn a 150k income.

For example with Biochem, a minor degree means nothing.
Even a masters degree will only give you a lab slave job with an earning potential of maybe 50k.
You are required to become a doctor.
And this requires you to become a sub minimum wage lab slave for 2 years, while beeing 100% obedient to your Mentor Professor.

And then you also have three options:
Become a lab slave in a interesting field but with low wage.
(Eg. Toxicology+Pathology).

Become a lab slave for a boring Pharma company and doing repetive shit while writing boring journal but with higher Wage.

Become a part time labslave and a lecturer at a university with a medium wage.

And in all of that, you only require to use 10% of what you learned in 7 years of university.
Depressing.

Irl software "engineering" is completely different from cs
If you just want to be a software engineer/developer you're wasting time and money studying mathematics at university at that level. You realistically only need the first year of your mathematics major provided it covers discrete, cal 1, linear algebra, statistics, intro absract algebra. Some physics is fine.
Mathematics should be for fun and interest only if you don't plan on research, data science (first year is probably enough) or working in engineering. You won't use it in most software jobs.
Even if you're working for a R&D lab or an engineering company, the engineers or scientists hand you what you're building and all you could do is error check them, but because your knowledge is at a baby graduate level you're error checking is probably missing something.
I don't care if you're 150iq, it is less efficient to have the software guys solve the mathematics problems and write the code. You can have an equally or more intelligent engineer/scientist/mathematician solve the problem who has focused their studies on exactly that, and the software guy build it, who has focused their studies on exactly that.
A very small percentage of people could do all if it flawlessly.

if this is the case, you are one of the countless codemonkies where there's low competition for the position (in the hundreds, maybe thousands at best), a position that pays peanuts
i'm not interested in doing boring job for peanuts, it would indeed be a waste of time to get a degree for that, iwant to get real money for that boring job

Understandable. Most people go into STEM with these false marketing ideas about it. You don't make a ton of money all things considered. You don't have fun on your job. You won't enjoy your colleagues. Your work is not stripped down to the logical essentials and free from useless administrative work and office politics.

you're competing against the best of the best when applying, all that matters is if your cv can get through the filter to top 100 - after that it's all skill and luck on the questions

i know people like that too, but none of them is in technical position, they're all in management or other positions where politics matter (and skills mostly don't)

I remember people like you when I was in college. Limpwristed unhappy little cunts like you love making the world out to be so much harder than it actually is because you yourself couldn't hack it.

Any little dudes reading I make an enviable salary in a low income area. I own a large home with a partner and I'm not even 30. I had a physics degree and one "real" internship in college and it was for research. Just send out those resumes. Someone will pick you up. You're not a failure if you're not at Google making 500k starting. Someone will call me a coper but they're definitely not in any position to say that.
Live your lives, kids. Still gotta work hard but don't kill yourself over it.
Oh and one last thing. Yeah I worked hard but I still got lucky with what I have. If you don't make it right away that doesn't mean you failed. You fail when you stop trying. Alright now go be less stressed out and maybe we'll all reach retirement age.
