tiers are only for people who are so insecure with what they are that they have to elevate themselves to "top" tier

>> No.5854114

>>5854108
No, they are a measure of the importance of the field. Importance in the sense of the benefits it brings. Physics and maths is a clear winner here. Problem?

>> No.5854128

>>5854114
measured by who? you have no data so you flawed your own point before you started. stop trolling and go back to /b/

>> No.5854130

>>5854114

my problem is basically that there are thousands of specializations in those subjects, the variance in what you probably consider important being pretty drastic, much like other fields. you will never contribute to the advancement of the subfields because you're likely too stupid, yet you want to be a part of a team so you can associate yourself with people more talented than you

you're the sci equivalent of some sports team fanboy

Physics is one tier more grubby and low-iq than maths.

Measured by benefits. Look at how drastically our knowledge of physics transformed the world. Now look at any low tier field and you will see what my point is.

All knowledge is beneficial but some knowledge is drastically more important than other.

Yet biology is still in a low tier when it transformed modern medicine.

>> No.5854260

>>5854257
Sure is 12 around here. Biology is grand tier, look at OP picture. Regardless of what /sci/ will have you believe, biology is one of the most important fields there is because it strives to explain who we are. Physics and maths are above it simply because they are higher level models of the universe.

>"logic/math" is in supreme tier
OP's face when logic is a subfield of philosophy

Of course, I obviously chose my major for the wrong reason. Here I thought studying math was about being interested in math. Apparently it's about rubbing your cock.

Aaand we have some underage semi-troll with those tiers again. But that's only the beginning! Soon, very soon philosophy, god, qualia, 0,999(9), wannabe pure math autists, Tyson/Sagan worshipping, pop-sci/sci-fi space exploration dreamers, dead and alive pussy and many other moronic kiddie threads. Stay tuned!

philosophy is just the attempt to apply logic to all things. If you think philosophy and logic are separate than you don't don't understand what philosophy is.

assuming that is an alternate notation for .999..., things like limits and infinite numbers are what cause mathematicians and physicists to clash in ideology so much in practice. I've seen it a million times and its always because they can't bridge their understandings, which shows that one or both of them are wrong, making the discussion of such a number inherently relevant, arguably even very important.

Considering the fact that many of our technological advancements, and indeed very many of the most interesting ones, were created on the heels of the authors who imagined them, Is nanotechnology and cloning a silly dream as well?

Fucking tiers, are you joking?

You limp-dicked faggots can't seem to grasp that each of the branches of science lends and borrows from the others.

I expect better of you /sci/.


That being said, biology is god-tier, ya'll can suck it.

wait biology changed 20th century medicine, chemistry changed, 21st century medicine.
