The Eternal Physics vs. Engineering Showdown

The eternal academic rivalry laid bare! While the physicist dwells in theoretical purgatory contemplating the heat death of the universe (which won't happen for trillions of years, so super practical), our chad engineer is out there approximating solutions and actually building stuff that works.

Let's be honest - nobody cares about your elegant solution to the n-body problem when the bridge needs to not collapse. The Newton-Raphson method might not be sexy, but it pays for the yacht. Meanwhile, those quarks aren't going to pay off that crushing student debt.

As a professor who's watched this drama play out for decades, I can confirm: you can either publish papers nobody reads or drive a Tesla. Choose wisely, undergrads.
