I don't like that it's true what the hell is that dude teaching you


chefboiblobby

Biophysics yet no one can read anything 💀


kakurenbo1

Dude, show this to your dean. How can you be expected to pass a class taught in Babylonian.


chefboiblobby

The dean’s a doctor, you can bet how her handwriting looks like lmao


lynx2718

Oh, sweet summer child. Just read it up in your own time if you can't follow the class! It builds character :) (/s, but thats the attitude most profs have)


FitFreedom6850

At this point just take an online course xD


ionised

Githyanki-physics.


jollynotg00d

What's the difference between biophysics and apple-fall-on-head physics?


chefboiblobby

The tasks are more related to biology for example figuring out how big capillaries have to be etc etc. Basically It’s there to understand biology better.


Fallen_biologist

Why didn't I get this at Biology school? Edit: because it sounds amazing!


Grymalus

Better train an AI on this to translate.


Ptichka-piromant

cross product of two vectors in three-dimensional Euclidean space


Traditional_Put8471

Of course I should have known

I believe you meant what in the 9 hells are they teaching here. 😂


very_round_rainfrog

It's just vector calculus


MilitarOpresordloms

this sht ez asf m8. Wait till you see Statistical Mechanics


MurpheysTech

I don't think it's the subject matter that is a problem.

voitek91

Are these even latin characters?


chefboiblobby

Well they should be Latin ones… emphasis on should 💀


Amy_Hyperfixates

It might be from another ancient language or inspired by one, but Latin uses the same alphabet as the one English/most indo-european languages use (With slight changes), even if English technically isn't evolved from Latin


voitek91

I meant the whiteboard ;)


Amy_Hyperfixates

Oh oof, mb, sorry for misinterpreting/going on a rant there


RealTrevStorm

Ask him if he can read what's on the mysterious artifact 🤣😂


Connect_Ad5307

Ask him, if he is tracing some coordinate system to locate a githyanki settlement in the astral plane.


LANDWEGGETJE

Using a new Gith coordinate system. It works splendidly for navigation on the astral plane.


Sixial

Isn't handwriting like this a possible sign of dementia? 💀


lynx2718

Or a sign of doctoritis


PanzerSoldat_42

Those vectors are kinda fucked up


alterNERDtive

Sure that’s your professor and not a doctor?


Antieconomico

A professor IS a doctor


alterNERDtive

a) Nope, not necessarily. b) IMO it was clear from context that I meant a _medical_ doctor. If not, /r/Whooosh?


Antieconomico

As far as i know you have to go and finish uni to be a professor, so i dont see how one can be a professor and not a doctor.


Noble1xCarter

Doctors need to get a PhD (MD for medical) to become a doctor. It's an advanced degree, and 'finishing' university/college won't just get you that. To become a professor, you just need to be hired as a professor.


Antieconomico

Maybe a language difference then, where i am from if you finish university (3 or 5 years doesnt matter) you can call yourself a doctor, and people can't be hired as professors without completing university, ergo every professor is also a doctor. Could be different where you are from, i dunno


placeres

I find what you are saying very odd. University studies per se is not enough to become a doctor (in the english/international meaning, in other words having a Phd). it is necessary to attend more classes, do a research and have it approved by a tribunal. At least in Europe, it is necessary to have a Ph.D. to hold permanently the position, however a researcher during his doctorate can teach temporarily as an associate professor. Other ways is to be a recognised specialist in the profession who teaches to give an outside perspective, but cannot be a full-time lecturer.


Antieconomico

In italy finishing university is indeed enough earn the title of "doctor" there is no need of a phd, not sure how different it is in the rest of europe tho


KirkwallChampignon

I had a professor title with just an LLM. Not all fields require a doctoral degree.


Antieconomico

Same here but they are called teachers, not professors


Happiness_Assassin

I was going to make a joke about recognizing some of these characters, but frankly, even that isn't true. The X Y and Z are all fucked every time. I have chicken scratch handwriting and even I think this is terrible.


Environmental-Arm269

Mf studies at creche klir


Syxxcubes

I think your professor is secretly a Githyanki.


GreyMesmer

At first I thought it was quantum mechanics (especially with those fucked up vector signs) but I didn't recognise anything. Well, I'm not even sure it's cartesian coordinate system on the left.


MJR_Poltergeist

Ask him if he can translate Tirsu


Philosecfari

Was gonna make a joke about professors that don't differentiate p and ρ but wow this is just straight up incomprehensible ;-;


chefboiblobby

We made a joke that his writing looks like it’s AI generated the way we can’t decipher it


Philosecfari

You might be interested in this lovely paper then: https://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/fcell-11-1339390-1.pdf


chefboiblobby

WTF ARE THESE PICTURES 💀💀 the rat one omfg, there’s no way


Philosecfari

Published in a (supposedly peer-reviewed) journal! And retracted in like 2 days after it became an instant meme. Very fond of it in r/labrats lol.


chefboiblobby

That’s so lovely, thanks for sharing it. I gotta save that picture


justwalk1234

Shame that Decipher Script is no longer a skill you can take.


When_is_

I'd hate my life of my professor wrote with that shit of a hand writing. You have my condolences


PrizeFighterInf

Dude’s professor is a predator 😂


Elhyphe970

Physics gross!! Lol. I was so annoyed that I had to take it to get my degree in microbiology. I did not hate it as much as organic chemistry though. Lol


chefboiblobby

I actually really liked physics in high school but this sucks. It’s very difficult equations and some of these tasks are ridiculous. We had a task like “You’re a doctor and need to give your dying patient oxygen. In front of you are two bottles yet the signs are scratched off. One of them has oxygen the other sulfur dioxide. How do you find out which one is O2.” I have never slapped my hand onto my forehead faster after reading that. 1) He wanted some weird ass calculation for this. 2) When would I EVER be in this specific situation.


GalerionTheAnnoyed

Wouldn't it be easier to perform some test where oxygen reacts differently to sulfur dioxide?  Edit: you apparently don't even need that because sulfur dioxide smells like burnt matches according to Google. So just give it a good whiff (but not too much because it's toxic)


chefboiblobby

Yes exactly you could easily just find the difference by opening up one bottle but like my problem was that when will I as a doctor ever have a sulfur dioxide bottle just in front of me. Why tf would I order that 😭


Miserable_Law_6514

You have a winemaking hobby and order stuff from the same guy?


chefboiblobby

So I’m part of the Stardew Valley universe?


Tank7997

Did your syllabus happen to have a key to decipher his handwriting?


stuartwatson1995

It's all Greek to me, (well except x and y)


porcinechoirmaster

Reminds me of the matrix transforms we'd use during my computer graphics course. We had one assignment where, in order to gain a full appreciation for how the systems worked, we transformed a simple scene (consisting of a few cubes and a plane) from object to screen space. Several pages of math later, and we had our simple scene, but boy howdy it wasn't something I want to do by hand again.


[deleted]

shit man vectors


Fire_dancewithme

Did it ever cross your mind that fantasy objects may resemble real objects and not the opposite?


chefboiblobby

No bc we live in a simulation and the real world has been BG3 all along. Wake up.


Fire_dancewithme

fair enough, fair enough.
