Thermodynamics is the subject I most wish I retained more of from college. Studied just enough to pass, then promptly forgot most of it. And since it’s a subject that basically never comes up afterwards unless you’re doing pretty specialized work, it’s pretty much all gone.

On a scale of 1-10, 10 being highest, here’s my ranking of engineering subjects based on philosophical profundity: Shop class: 10 Materials science: 9.5 Thermodynamics: 9 Information theory: 9 Controls: 8 Computational complexity: 7 Design: 6* OR: 5 Optimization: 4 * any genre
