    I think the concept of the universe as everything and all, will turn out to be just the opposite
    tiny and small...

    Its just too mind breaking to grasp the whole universe let alone whats outside our little bubble...

    Time sucks... I wanted to be around when they figured it out

    But oh well, it doesn't mean we cant love it all and keep learning. :D
    And here's another reason the quantum physicists of the last century had it so well. They didn't have to specialize so much. It was either QM or GR. They had two things to choose between, and then they could proceed to study everything about that subject. Now you don't focus on either. You focus on a very small portion of one of these. For example, if I study condensed matter, I wont learn anything about particles. And even then I'll only be studying a small part of condensed matter physics.

    You realize when I take over the world that engineers are going to be the first to go, right? I would just go after them now, but I need engineers to build my doomsday device (which I'll immediately use on the engineers).

    Holy shit, I shudder to think of the explosion of awesome that will happen in NYC this summer. Good thing I'll likely be helping beaners in Guatemala so the radiation from said explosion won't reach me.

    Anyways, sort of on topic, I happen to be nerding it up in this today




    P.S. Fagtreides this qualifies as the pic you've been hounding me for.

    You're probably right. Like I said earlier, so many things are suggesting to us that there's something much larger than what we're accounting for in our theories. And if you think our current universe is mind breaking, just think about how much our idea of the universe keeps growing.

    Remember the good ol' days when the entire universe was just a bunch of concentric spheres with the Earth in the center and everything else revolving around us? Now our idea of the universe is unfathomably large, and your article suggests that we may have to expand it MUCH more D:

    Oh, and speaking of time, there's another thing we don't understand as much as we pretend to...

    Edit: ^ T-shirt is awesome, Zaraki.

    I know what you mean, waiting is always the worst part. If Ronald Mallot gets his stuff together we could all just go to and fro the future and past as we see fit and have the answers and bring them back to our past selves.

    I'd do a complimentary pick up of Carl Sagan, Einstein, Newton, Galileo and show them everything we know today. Paradox count = Off the charts.

    I know man I'd rather learn a broad range over a minuscule field of study, any day of the week.

    Dont say that too loud, we dont want Khamsin to be wary of us or our motives. We've worked too hard to gain his trust.

    I've always said I wish I could bring these people back (and also Feynman, and a bunch of mathematicians). Then I realized that I'd be competing with these people for jobs when I graduate...

    No one's going to hire me over these guys D:

    Edit: Lin would be happy with this topic. Where is she? I never even knew she was even into astrophysics until yesterday.

    In Guatemala? I thought Ryko was having his summer time family meet and greet in NYC?

    Man we'd have most certainly have to drop them back off after we had our fun and talked for a few days.

    Guess he'll just have to go to Guatemala if he wants me to give him food/build him a house.

    You two will become engineers, whether you like it or not. You won't even realize that it happened until it's too late.

    He is homeless so this is not a stretch. I mean if you're helping underprivileged Mexicans why not start close to home on BG. Make a thread is spam and tell him Miz sent you, he would be too happy for words.

    A) I'd rather help Cream Soda out because his stories are at least funnier (to me)
    B) Looks more impressive on my med school application if I'm helping underprivileged Mexicans abroad rather than NYC.

    What's funny is that this actually happens. Most people with physics PhDs don't consider themselves "physicists" based on what they actually do at their job. Statistically, a person who intends to become a physicists and gets their degree in it will end up being something between engineer and physicist.

    Mizango wont have that option since he's going into a field where no one will hire him outside a university. If I go into solid state physics, then chances are I wont actually be a physicist. But in this case I'll be making a lot more than Miz until they name 74% of the universe after him. Unless he gets a book or TV deal like some other prominent scientists. In that case, I wont make more than him until I take over Africa and use their diamond supply to fund my doomsday device.

    Bullcrap, there are no black scientist in real life. NDT is a robot, and Miz and I are clever computer programs designed by the liberal media to make people on the internet think that not all black people are criminals.

    Yeah man. Before you 3, the smartest black person on my list was Ms. Cleo, followed by Wilt Chamberlain (100 bitches etc.).
