What the fuck are you engineers doing? I get the electrical ones are making iPods and shit, and the chemistry ones are making drugs, but everyone else, what the fuck?

If you wanted money you should've gone law or MBA, go discover something already, fuck

EE doing brain research here - using implanted electrodes to predict and stop seizures in epilepsy patients. I'm a sophomore undergrad, so I'm just doing signal processing bitch work, but its better than all my class mates that are just blowing up capacitors because it's cool.

Many of the research subjects are under 30. Hugh Herr is tangentially involved and is interested in using the results of our work to further his. I plan on working for him when I graduate, despite how much of a pipe dream that is for a 4chan fag.

Perhaps I should have said (actually, I should have):

>almost 2012
>still trying to prevent diseases as opposed to enhancement of perfectly healthy individuals

One could also say that our biological vessels are diseases themselves but I don't think we need to go that far.

>> No.4159795

>Not working on finding a new energy source
We are.
>Not working on brain and mental research
That's medicine.
>Not mining from asteroids
Proof-positive that OP is a fucking retard.
>Not trying to perfect the human body
Politics. Also, again, that's medicine.

Sage because OP is a delusional wannabe intellectual.

Computer engineer here. List of projects I've done professionally:

The data acquisition board for a Karaoke machine that was only ever sold in China.

Some microscopic image analysis algorithms for a cancer research agency.

Some microscopic image analysis algorithms for a wood/paper research agency.

The communication protocols for the operating system of a new (classified) military unmanned aerial vehicle.

Designing custom lighting systems for concerts and nightclubs.

Designing some control panels to be used in a new Algerian solar power plant.

Complain to your representatives that your country is not funding LFTR research. Not our problem that we're not getting funding.

>> No.4161306

>>4160837
Yes, go to /pol/ and bitch that nobody is writing their political overlords about giving scientific research a penny for every 100 dollars spent on military funding.

NASA would have us not only walking on Mars, but in the early stages of terraforming the moons of Jupiter if they had unlimited funding.
