I'm a physics student. Sometimes I'm thinking if I should completely change my path to math. I always sucked at it but it seems to be so huge, exciting and powerful.

I have absolutely no idea how people start consulting. How old are they? Did they work something else before? Did they major in anything? Are they all independent or work at consul…

I'm actually on the other side: currently writing my bachelor's thesis in statistical physics, having a lot to do with probability stuff, statistics and data. I'd like to take a ye…

Probably not much. I started working with bigger data some months ago and now I notice that I need some real techniques and not just my "ok try this and this". I'm coding in C (whe…

Thanks, you helped me a lot.

I like mailto on websites, since I don't like contact forms so much. When I click on the mailto links, Thunderbirds open and I can start writing, very comfortable.

Hello HN, I'm a physics student diving into his second year and in 1 year I'll probably start my bachelor thesis. The topic I'd like to dive into in more detail is Nonlinear Dynami…
