For real though, why the fuck to I have to memorize a bunch of proofs. It's such a waste of time.

you weren't supposed to memorize the proofs, you're supposed to be able to come up with them on your own using techniques shown in class

actually it's because my physics teacher was a shit and I failed their class and I began to hate physics a lot so I decided to do a math degree because I like math and I wasn't allowed to get into the cs program without physics.

Lmao people at my uni get dumped into Cs cause they couldn't get into mathematics
What fucking actual math class isn't like 95% proofs? Even the computation questions are essentially "prove that this is the answer"

I spend all day working on my classes and self study. and it's not even about physics at this point. she's just being a cunt to make us fail. I've been reading university physics, taylor and Goldstein CM, but it's such bull shit how the exams work and how they are set up.

If it's not family I take the compliment in stride but, it's a very empty feeling.

I know some people who are majoring in math because it's just a nice degree for landing a job anywhere - from finance to CS. What's wrong with that? People have different objectives, nobody has to follow your goal.

This

I did my 4th year Masters project in CS with someone who couldn't write even basic java (I'm pretty sure I remember the code he tried to write looked like something a child who had watched an adult writing Java would produce) and I'm not sure he was fully literate.

I can't say I was much better, I somehow managed to get through a CS degree whilst not really understanding proofs. Having worked for 4 years now in software dev i'm sometimes tempted to get back into studying but I'm afraid I'll instantly find I've lost about 95% of what I was taught or was meant to have learnt.

Im a physicist and some people suck up to me and call me "nuclear physicist" and introduce me to others like that, and at work some managers tell me "i know you are bored and would rather be in research". Im not a nuclear physicist, people go by memes.

I used to care about math autism and feel superiors to others too. Now? Honestly people who have business or are rich are the people actually smart. I know some dumbfucks who make have brain-dead-tier business models (think re-selling shit bought from alibaba) and have a very good life. IMO people like those are smarter than some cucklet phdcell working 70h/week making peanuts

A very american way of thinking. Mathfags can make very good money if that's what they care about.
