If I ever go back to finish my degree I have to do lots of math and I am not looking forward to it. I'm gonna just keep focusing on certifications because I get to avoid learning how to math.

and when sounding like a as in neighbor or weigh,
and if you care about english on any given day,
then you like dick in your butt because you are gay,
these are the rules no matter what you say.

Just stay out of my way, or you'll pay. Listen to what I say.

[Mertron]

we're still going to sizzler right?

[Churchill]

sizzler is for niggas

[Arvin]

is sizzler a real place

[Arvin]

ive actually never seen a sizzler

[BerenTebogo]

I missed this, but yes DS is right. Also, in the future use this to check everything you do to make sure that you (and your professor) are not being retarded.

yea i actually bought a sub yesterday

To wolfram? Man wish I knew you were gonna do that, would've advised against it.

See if you can get a license for Mathematica through your school. Almost every school has them available to students, I know at LSU you can just download it and get the license through their technology page.

My general rule is: If free WA can't do it, or does it retardedly -> go to mathematica. Paid wolfram doesn't offer anything extremely useful imo except shown steps.

[Churchill]

shown steps is why

Also I'm on that veteran cheese nigga

Then I suggest getting both Mathematica and Matlab. I know you're majoring in physics, but do you have any idea what you want to do with it? Should be able to give you a heads up on skills you want to develop / won't need based on what you wanna do with your degree.

[Churchill]

Dunno. I really don't want to go to grad school. I can't see it being worth the cost. I was mostly planning to either go fly helicopters in the Army, or work for the government doing what I used to do for a different organization.

If I did something physics related though, the concept of making a thorium reactor work and/or engineering a working one is interesting, as is cosmology.

really big or really small.

Don't necessarily need to work in physics area or go to grad school to still do cool stuff. GF just finished internship at NUWC in Newport, RI, and there is a fairly high chance we're going to both end up working there by end of next year doing different things. She is finishing up PhD in Applied Math, I'm probably just gonna stop at Masters in physics. NUWC uses either C/C++ or Matlab almost exclusively for all the coding they do, I think that extends pretty broadly for the defense sector.

Having a working knowledge of stuff like matlab/mathematica makes your life INFINITELY easier pretty much regardless of where you work if you are using physics or math to any degree. High proficiency in mathematica makes it so you never need to solve anything by hand ever again, which is p. cool.

[BerenTebogo]

See: just had to solve an inhomogenous 2nd order ODE explicitly which is a gigantic pain in the ass.



Saved me about an hour + however many algebra mistakes I would've done if I did it by hand.

[Churchill]

All I need to know if I go the defense route is how many PSI it takes to squeeze a trigger and some simple trig in super rare situations lol

[Ksandra]

is sizzler a real place

There is a sizzler in LA that has fucking amazing steak for $10.

All the other sizzlers in the world are meh.

Someone is being underpaid.

[Falisa]

I go there for the self serve ice cream cones.

Actually I only go there to see my grandparents because it seems to be just one of those old people dinner places where they eat at like 4pm.

[Arvin]

When I think old people restaurant I think ponderosa

[Churchill]

white people restaurant is golden corral.

[Demosthenes]

white people restaurant is golden corral.

Clearly never visited the ones in MD.
