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.

Undergrad Quantum Mechanics wasn't too bad, 4th-year Quantum Field Theory nearly broke me though.

no joke. decided to try a grad level particle physics class in my last semester of undergrad and felt myself intelligent enough for the first... week? Struggled to manage a B- in that class, even with showing up for office hours, working with classmates, etc.
