I really enjoy solving mathematical puzzles and riddles in general. But is there any use for higher mathematica if you are going into electrical engineering? Or is the standard classes of linear algebra, one and multidimensional analysis and statistics, discrete math, complex analysis and maybe some optimization course enough?

Things like topology and abstract algebra, does it teach you anything that is actually applicable in electrical engineering? Does it evolve your abstract thinking skills which could make you a better engineer?

I have always wanted to move to the USA. Attitude is better(especially towards entrepreneurialship), taxes are lower but perhaps most importantly, weather is better(I live in Sweden).

However is California all it seems to be? I think constant sunshine, wealthy, surfing, skiing, climbing. I could live an active outdoor life there.

But then there is perhaps high house prices and apartments, overpopulation, pollution(?), crime etc.

Is Colorado(Denver, Boulder, Colorado springs) better?

How is the USA overall? Is Europe better? I don't like the stupid socialist attitude of pretty much all european governments, on the other hand I don't dig US foreign politics much either(I'm fairly libertarian).

I'm finishing my bachelor and I really enjoy machine learning(one ML course and one AI course). My uni has a great master in ML available I just wonder if the jobs are there, except for working at Google. What's the best background to come from(CS,EE,ME)?

Is there anyone here working with 3rd world product development? Energy, water, simple mechanical devices, other basic needs?

I want to get into it but I'm not sure what to study, Elec. eng., mech. eng., etc.

I once found a site where people in general(I think) posts all kind of interesting problems to solve, ie not just hacking problems but physics, environment, chem, economy, etc. Real world problems, not school quizzes. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Engineering I would say is a lot harder. Tougher to study, hardeer jobs. But economists seem to be paid better. Why is this? Tougher competition for engineering jobs? Why? More engineers are educated or is it because an engineer costs 2-3$/hour in China?

I have recently lost 20 pounds in about a month and turned my life over and got back to training and stopped eating junk food.

Are the health programs out there good enough? What is missing in them? This must be a huge market but it might be already taken? I mean how many millions in the world are overweight? And those 2.5 billion indians or chinese will soon start to be...

I have googled some but haven't found anything...there must be right?

I love programming but after losing interest in games I am a bit confused on what to study at university.

I would be interested in energy or civil engineering but the jobs I don't think would be as much fun as hacking, it is just that I have a hard time finding meaningful areas in computer science. I think Facebook for example is just useless crap that I have to waste time on now because everybody else is on there.

Some areas in CS that interest me: Robotics - automate boring jobs Image analysis - medical imaging Datamining the human genome etc

I don't find internet stuff to meaningful.

How are the chances of landing these types of jobs, are there a lot of them?
