Why I quit studying engineering

[Brad Barker]

Actually those can be fun and funny.

What?
"Eigenvalues have escaped the Unit Circle and are headed your way!" isn't humorous?

"My poles are in the right half-plane!" isn't humorous?

see the top of page 7

re: eigenvalues.

for unitary operators, maybe.

and i don't see what's funny about "my poles are in the right half-plane." that just seems like a statement, probably of some function that goes like 1/(x-a)^p, for some real numbers a and p.

I wish I still had my Math test from Grade 11. I wrote it all in Roman Numerals. My teacher wasn't too impressed.

awesome! hope you didn't have to deal with square roots, decimals, etc.

Hmm... I forgot to upload one of my favorites:

("If... then...")

Funny as hell. Rarely do I laugh aloud at images, but I made an exception for this.

Ionic bond. That wasn't very hard, they're practically giving you the answer. Can you spot the engineering student?

I really enjoyed this thread. Classic!

As an ex-engineering magnet student during my high school days, I just had to subscribe to this awesome thread.
