>If it weren't because of the science branches and the job market (chemistry in particular)
Well, Hello from another of the science branches not suprisingly, the memest of them all, IT
It's always good to see people not think in the science vs. humanities (aka feels vs. reals) dichotomy, because it seems to be prevalent trend of nowadays, with "you can be one but not the other" which, ironically enough, somehow is still upheld in media (movies, books, games and the like) by people who mostly come from humanities studies background

>The more you know, less happiness (they said), but also more freedom of thought and liberty.
I also think that's true although I always end up accusing myself of agreeing with this sentence only because of trying to forcefully include myself by proxy into "the more knowing" group, and trying to garner muh uniqueness, muh special snowflake points It's the same irony that the humblest man can't ever acknowledge it, because that would be hubris, an antithesis of modesty. I'm loving it and hating it at the same time., and I think >>451 summarised it best.

They also say that the less you know, the better you sleep at night, and that ignorance is a bliss, and I also have to agree with that one
