The Geological Timescale Of CAD Software

Electric equations got this poor physics student going from confident to confused REAL quick! The first two panels show our hero totally chill with Ohm's Law (V=IR) and its rearrangement (I=V/R) - basic electrical circuit stuff. But then BAM! That third equation (E=ρJ) introducing the microscopic form of Ohm's Law with resistivity and current density just broke their brain! It's that classic moment when your professor says "this is simple" and then throws vector calculus at you without warning. The jump from circuit-level to material-level physics is the academic equivalent of thinking you're walking on solid ground and suddenly falling through a trapdoor!

The irony is absolutely delicious here! Boeing's recruitment slide proudly declares "Never compromising on safety or quality" while showing an engineer inspecting what appears to be a structural component... with a flashlight. Because nothing says "rigorous aerospace engineering standards" like squinting at critical aircraft parts with a pocket light! This is basically the aviation equivalent of a surgeon saying "I'll just eyeball it" before an operation. Next-level quality assurance process: if you can't see the cracks with a flashlight, they probably don't exist, right? Safety first... or whenever the proper inspection equipment arrives!

Engineers see a problem and immediately apply a practical solution. Fire? Extinguish it. Mathematicians, however, identify the theoretical solution but never actually implement it. "This fire extinguisher is the solution" followed by "Now back to my email!" while the office continues to burn. Pure mathematics in a nutshell—elegant theories with zero concern for real-world application. The gap between theoretical brilliance and practical implementation has claimed many offices... and research grants.

The eternal battle between electrical engineers and mechanical precision! While EEs boldly declare "I fear no man," they're immediately humbled by GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) standards. These mechanical engineering specifications are the stuff of nightmares for those who live in the world of electrons and circuit diagrams. Why worry about voltage spikes when a 0.005mm tolerance requirement can send you into cold sweats? Mechanical precision is the kryptonite to the electrical engineering superhero!

From glass tubes to godhood in five easy steps! The meme perfectly captures computing's evolution from clunky vacuum tubes (where calculations took longer than microwaving a potato) to transistors (smaller but still dumber than a pet rock) to integrated circuits (finally getting somewhere) to microprocessors (now we're cooking with gas!) and finally quantum processors, where apparently we'll all transcend physical reality and become cosmic brain entities. Moore's Law wasn't just about doubling transistors—it was about our brains getting progressively more enlightened with each hardware upgrade. Can't wait for quantum computing to turn us all into interdimensional beings! My current Intel i7 only lets me astral project on Tuesdays.

Every electrical engineering student after getting zapped by their first circuit! Franklin's single-fluid theory proposed that electricity flowed from positive to negative—but we now know electrons actually flow in the opposite direction. This convention mismatch haunts engineers to this day, forcing them to deal with "conventional current" (positive to negative) while knowing the physical reality is completely backwards. The fiery backdrop perfectly captures the rage of anyone who's ever had to mentally flip directions while troubleshooting a circuit at 3AM. Thanks Ben, you've condemned generations to electrical confusion!
