I'm just waiting for the day when machines will be making all our blog posts.

Luckily as a human, if we choose, we can make an effort to find other ways to employ ourselves and make progress. Essentially that is how progress is made is when we are freed up with time and can move on to do other things.
you're prolly pretty blown away by this sort of tech eh? does iowa state ee program put a heavy emphasis on math? i recall from my college days the ee program, or 1 to 2 of them, had tons and tons of math.

i maxed out at linear algebra/dif eq so i never even hit the algorithm level math courses! whew, tough for me.
