- BurningFrog 5y agoIf we assume the average weight of a scientist is 80kg, there are 12.5 chemistry PhDs in a ton.
- belval 5y agoIn this case "a ton" is an understatement, getting a Nobel requires the right mix of excellent research, significant discovery and a healthy dose of luck/timing. Inverting the comment that you were replying to it's akin to saying "I wish I had finished my software engineer degree and made a billion dollar startup instead of getting a chemistry PhD".
