    Tbh engineering, least aero, is mostly spreadsheets But I gotta keep deriving crap in physics, you think you’ve derived it all but you haven’t they just keep making more physics or some shit (wolfram alpha is bae)

      Yeah physics really jumped the derivatives shark with snap crackle and pop

      Edit: they just kept coming up with more fucking derivatives its now Snap, crackle, pop, lock and drop

        They ducking have

        Like why tf do I gotta care about the E field’s partial snap derivative in the X direction gdi I know full well the E field itself doesn’t give a shit about its snap

        But then you gotta integrate somebullshit that’s been derived to the jerkth order back up the chain like a total goober
