I'm going to be 26 when I start an engineering degree in a few months, the first degree I've ever done. I'll graduate when I'm close to 30.

But he is the fun part. I'm already rich (low 7 figures), have a wife, my own house, an expensive car, and don't even need to study. At this point I could live off my interest from my portfolio and my income from tenements. Even if all of that went to shit, my family is rich and I'll never starve. I have nothing to worry about. I'll also have 2 babies (hopefully daughters) over that period.

that's not how the world works. People hate seeing unsightly people. Take the example of an ugly person. A typical Hollywood depiction of an ugly person isn't revolting, but we all know there are revolting people in the real world. And people don't relate to them like in a Hollywood film, they just want them gone, out of site. Same with autistic people too - people just want you gone. They don't directly want you to commit suicide but that and hiding in your parents basement are the only two you can make if you were to attribute appropriate value to what people think of you.

You are telling me a 30 year old man is ugly? Men don't even reach their prime in sexual attractiveness till late 30's early 40's (think Hugh Jackman or Brad Pitt).

Got one in my CS class. He says Python is better than C/C++ for embedded programming because there are already-made libraries for I2C on it (I2C on C/C++ on a Unix system takes literally 5 minutes to learn). That and he thinks it's unnecessary to do some measurements to judge the accuracy of our sensors because "we can just read the manual (which was dog shit btw) or google that." Did I mention he was incapable of understanding what raising a linear endomorphism to an integer power meant?

Why? The reason anyone picks engineering is not because it's more fun, but because it makes money. Maths is the entertainment major.

math isn't inherently more fun than engineering, that's retarded, it's just that since math doesn't make you much money then only the people who actually like it and find it fun do it.

Fuck off don't spread this meme here too. No one cares if your 10 or 80 in a class as long as you don't interrupt or distract the class. Many of the older students I've encountered have been much harder workers than younger ones, even if they have a job, family, etc.
