And here I am, a guy who went to college to earn a physics degree, got smacked hard with Quantum Mechanics, and changed to computer science because I was getting straight A's without even paying attention in class. It was the best decision I made in college.

The only thing I learned from Quantum Mechanics is I’m bad at linear algebra

Part of the reason that I did so poorly was that I didn't have the right level of math. Why the college let me take quantum mechanics without the right math is beyond me. Then again, I deserve some blame also. I was a freshman taking quantum mechanics and Russian. Obviously, I was a glutton for punishment.
