You shouldn't be worried about CRISPR/CAS9. You should be worried about gene drive using CRISPR/CAS9

>tfw humanity can now fuck up an entire species with minimal effort.

It's hilarious how frightening this is, I was reading a proposal to use the two to turn all mosquitoes male.

The scary thing is that it really IS that easy. We might not be that far away from artificially genetically enhanced humans already

more "salt" deposits, that they then suddenly never talk about again

I'm really hoping the camera spots something interesting in the clouds. I find the whole cloud planet thing very romantic.

It's a pity it's basically impossible to build some sort of probe that could go down and film in the atmosphere. Even Juno's camera can only be used for short periods before the radiation fucks it over.

Either fusion energy or using zero-point energy to create exotic matter to stabilise an Einstein–Rosen bridge.

What?

Your CPU actually contains enough uranium to cause a nuclear explosion. Microsoft includes a program called "system32" that prevents it from blowing up, so all you have to do is delete it.

Wrap a battery covered with aluminium sheet to give it a current pumped with argon gas, and put it in a microwave. You won't believe what happens ;)

40000 studies and no one bothered to check the software?

Critical software should be open source and peer reviewed.

You'll earn as much as a person in a field earns. Degrees don't get you money, they get you an entrance pass to certain fields and it just so happens that some fields are wealthier than others.

Guide yourself with this:

https://qph.ec.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-b934f4d25b38a607672455800e6c159e?convert_to_webp=true

It is for PhDs so I would chop down at least 30% of the figures. For example, it says PhDs in government earn 100k, make it 70k for your typical BSc and MSc holder.

On the other hand, see this for an even more general view:

http://www.payscale.com/college-salary-report/majors-that-pay-you-back/graduate-degrees?page=20

It says that a Physics MSc earn 67k dollars a year, which is just 3k short of my prediction using the previous statistics. Know that it is the average and just like there are physicists in industry earning hundreds, there are physicists teaching in community college earning shit.

> computational programmation

It is programming and I don't think it is necessary to say computational programming. I think it is well understood programming involves computers. Also, you are right about industry being best unless you are an absolute genius. The best of the best have been able to 'tame' the university beast like our friend Terence Tao who earns more than 500 thousand dollars a year for his salary, now add to that the millions from his book and other duties. But for every Terence Tao, there are two thousand academics earning the same as a fucking Mc Donald's cashier, so my tip for you is to get the fuck away of academia the moment you get that paper.

>>8184706
Thanks for the answer. It looks like the average physicist is not a Terence Tao as you say, pretty unfortunate. 67k is very low imo, getting to the 100k would be the nicest minimum, but maybe there's too much luck involved in it.
Looks like petroleum makes up the head of the list. With good reason though, I wonder if it would be a wise choice to study more about energy and foresee the collapse of petroleum for the benefit of electrical cars for example and develop wiser energy methods. Just a random thought out there, I am simply not prepared to teach to autistic students and earn shit money, noooooooo plz /sci/ :/

>>8184830
>67k is very low imo
You should note that the statistics say that 67k is at the start of your career. The mid career stats say 100k so maybe if you work hard and shit.

That said, if you want to be a physicist physicist then you will have to teach autistic students, there is no way around that because the only way professors make money for their company (universities) is by teaching, publishing papers is just a prestige contest you have between other professors so that when budget cuts come you are not the one fired.

you are not qualified to post on /sci/. you should be autistic enough to think that insects are the premier form of life on earth to post here. where is the entrance exam?

>>8183605
Come on son. I don't think you need any special reasons to hate insects.
