Oh, they do look absolutely fantastic. I can't wait for the Biochem/Medicinal Chem/Cell Bio lectures to get started.Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

This summer I'm taking eight credits of "independent study," and four credits of "MBA jackoffery" (MBA 750: Leading Teams and Organizations). I've got to take twelve graduate credits outside of the CS department, and I've got to take twelve business credits to get promoted to some ridiculously high-paying position that I won't be promoted to for another twenty years (if ever), so I figure, heck, might as well temporarily join the dark side and kill two birds with one stone.
I'll be able to start my residency research in the fall, knock on wood.<p style="font-size:1024px">HTML is disabled in signatures

My wife went from poly sci to animal science... she's done well with Animal Science, and could possibly gone far and made good money if she had any ambition.
Hell, she settled for me!

Man, computer science is exciting and evolving.
No other fields are really moving at the same pace.
Once you get past the boring fundamentals you get on to the really intriguing stuff, like AI.

It's a dream.

I don't golf, but I have been to Pebble Beach several times. The restaurant "Roys" there is really good. It's a chain, but I think that one is the best. Best views as well... Good prices, great lunch.The course I'd like to 'take' is Pebble Beach
Also, Monterey is a great place to hang out for a day or two.Comment
