Chewing on an adrenal gland with the left molars, a gall bladder right, and a bayonette up front, in case his rifle runs out of ammo.. HARRRRRRRRRRRRR! :mad:

Really Laser, you study engineering, which is based on what?  What do you engineer - ethers and spirits?
Physics are the frame to it all.

How do you study engineering and not explore fundamentals as these?

Engineering is the practical application of physics in my field.  I'm currently studying Architectural Engineering.  We don't have to take classes on nuclear engineering or physics past materials, dynamics, statics or basic electricity, because nothing past those are necessary to surviving in our field.

Just as much as a Education major wouldn't have to take classes on advanced masonry design and construction.

What if we all experience our own parallel time lines and we are all but one being rolling down a megamultidimensional mobius strip.

"I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together."

A random but scary thought.

It'd be ironic how stupid each one of us is individualy, compared to the vastness of the whole being.

Why should we waste our time and money learning skills we will never need?  Not to mention my degree is a 5 year program for only a bachelors.  Imagine extending it to 6 years for just a bachelors degree.

Everyone claims that time is the fourth dimension.  But given that it doesn't actually exist, I don't see how people can claim this.  Why aren't actual physical properties the other dimensions, like weight, density (though those two may be one dimension), electrical charge, energy, chemical properties, momentum...


I'm studying engineering, not physics.


Engineering is applied physics.

(There are no rocket scientists...  they are applying physics to to solve real world problems.  They are rocket engineers)

However....  

Time is a real world dimension, or meters/second would be a dimension divided by a dimensionless number and then the units for speed would be just meters.

meters/second*second would be identical to just meters...

If time were not a dimension, distance, speed, and acceleration would be indistinguishable.
