Comment Re:QM explains Transistors? (Score 1) 163
I've never seen a theoretical description of any transistor device that required any form of quantum mechanics for its explanation.
So you learned about transistors without discussing bands?

I am an excellent programmer, but working 9-5 in a cubicle writing code scares me and does not seem like a good way to spend the next 30+ years of my life.
Have you considered science, as others here have mentioned? Atmospheric science, in particular, is computationally intensive and can often be started in grad school without any undergrad exposure. With a CS degree and programming experience, you could very quickly get involved in atmospheric science research.
No. It isn't true. Instinct is indeed to chase pretty much anything that moves, that isn't a 'friend'.

We didn't have a #&$((@ mouse problem until one particular bastard of a cat started bring (live!) mice in from the field 'for later'.
Well, if the mice were still alive, I'd wager the cat could use more training...
I love the bit about baselining time at mean sea level. I am always amazed by how much complexity there is in the universe.
Is that present day mean sea level?
