Is econophysics a meme field?

>> No.8018057

not at all. thats how you get rich. or rather learn how to manage your income so you build a sustainable account for the future

literally what the fuck

Anything with physics in the title is a meme field

>> No.8018320

Pretty much. Physicists do contribute some interesting ideas to finance, like path integrals and quantum information, but the vast majority of their models are terrible at explaining how markets work.

I don't know what that is but I am sure it is a meme.

Here is a rule: Any degree that merges the names of two other degrees or fields of study is a meme degree.

Prime examples: Computer Science, Mechatronics Engineering, Engineering Physics, etc.

I already gave you the theorem. I don't even need to answer your question.

Does this look like a meme/cult to you?

biochem isnt a meme but only premed morons would major in it

You forgot:
Electrical engineering
Nuclear engineering
* engineering
Physical chemistry
and some more.

>> No.8019143

>>8018671
Don't give me these feels anon. I majored in biochem because I was premed, wish I could go back and do chem, but I'm going to grad school for pure chem so it all worked out.

Also, >>8018327
Has not proposed a decent theorem yet. Organometallics is not a meme either along with biochem. Though it is fairly close. I think organometallics and biochem are more established fields though.

EE is not a meme

literally none of these are a meme

even nuclear engineering is a very good major although i think it should be named nuclear physics and be part of the physics department in universities instead

>> No.8019905

Not him but yes it does
