/sci/ - Science & Math

>>15916435
I wish I had a way to make friends too anon, but sadly I don't have a discord account, I'm that old, but I do have an old mentality, so I never bothered creating a fake one.

>go to /sci/ in 2015 as a college sophomore
>board is full of people who talk about math and science
>people have critical thinking
>learn cool shit about physics and calculus
>go to /sci/ in 2023 as an engineer
>it's full of conspiracy garbage and high school questions you can google in under a minute
>peer-reviewed science is unironically dismissed as Jewish propaganda
>not a single person left knows what the words Pettis integral or minimum spanning tree mean
>no one would disagree that if religion vs science debates were allowed half the threads would be Kent Hovind dick sucking contests

Feels bad to outpace an entire website this hard desu

scientifically speaking, of course. i got tired of looking up some notable Genius of intelligence only to find out later that he was a scat fetishist. it's so tiresome and disgusting and, to top it off, it almost gives the impression that the 2 are a somewhat necessary combination.

note that I'm talking about real intellectual geniuses, not just some smart guys.

why is that?

>study ordinary differential equations
>homogeneous ones make absolute sense, you can intuitively reach the conclusion that it's a linear combination of exponentials just by knowing about linear algebra and calculus
>arrive at non-homogenous equations
>suddenly all intuition disappears, the professor just says "suppose the solution is in this form" and calls it the "variation of parameters method"
bros, is there any actual logical theory that justifies this shit? like, is there any actual step by step reasoning to move from homogeneous to non-homogeneous? is this "I dreamt it last bight" shit really the only way we could solve these equations?

>no conspiracy gf

TFW im googling "am i stupid" for the second time this week

>Have a B right now in calculus 2 because the "honors" portion of the course just consists of adding extra problems from anywhere in the textbook on the exam
>wouldn't have lost a single point if I did the normal version

>Didn't believe the anti-CS memes
>Be in second week of intro to CS
>Half the class can't comprehend some basic uses of the modulo operator
>The kid in front of me can barely operate a computer
A..are the memes true bros?

I'll never solve the twin prime conjecture. I've been working on it since I was 17 and now I'm 32.

I'm 35 and I've been working on it since I was 15.

>in 1st semester of CS program
>at a small campus, only 3-5 freshmen doing CS
>Other CS major proclaims "I am the god of computers" to the English class
>Yet another CS major sperged out to the English class about how he couldn't dual major in Comp engineering
>One of them dropped out of Calc 1 already

>Accompanying lab is two weeks ahead of the lecture

b-b-b-ut they say EQ is more important for success than IQ

Seriously, if you can do it over again, would you rather go to PA school rather than going to medical school?

Man won't colonize other planets. We are not fit for space travel. Our machines will do that job for us. This is reality.

People tell me Im smart then why am I so shit at studies? No matter how hard I try, how mucu effore I put it, how much of my interest and social activities I sacrifice its all for naught. To hell with getting a gf, to hell with being attractive, to hell with being popular. I want to be successful. Its hurts so fucking much seeing other people being more succesful than me

Nope.

School just went on strike for the 2nd time in 3 years

no one gives Weierstrass the credit for making the concept rigorous.

How can i be smarter?

>my phd advisor is 38
>2 Doctorates in Physics and Philosophy
>department head Computational Neuroscience
>i have masters in comp sci, starteted phd last year
>he says "i don't believe there can be science of Computers"
>mfw
Was he right?

Who /lazypieceofshit/ here?
