Is is possible to leave the event horizon of a black hole by way of a stable wormhole?
>pic related
>>8041667
Probably, if you're going fast enough
>>8041720
i thought the mechanics of a wormhole makes velocity irrelvent, isnt it space/time that is moving, not the object, for the most part?
>>8041729
Spacetime doesn't move, it's just different from place to place. And yes, it doesn't matter even if you were able to exceed the speed of light; the geodesics of spacetime beyond the event horizon all send you only one way -- towards the singularity.
How is Psychoanalysis, is there actual employment in it?
>>8041550
You mean outdated Freudian shit, about 80% of which has been debunked? Why would you want to study a discipline like that?
I think there are still some therapists that use it, but I'd never go to one. Why wouldn't you study a therapeutic discipline that at least has some evidence-based practice involved, like CBT?

What if I just really like Jung and want a career in it?

The literal couch-thing with the associated different methodology (I guess) is the stuff of mid-20th century. People used to talk about it in the Saturday Evening Post, and movies of the period; along with nukes and the space race, it was the pop-sci of the day. IIRC Woody Allen went in for Freud-tier stuff regularly, and the culture has mostly moved on.
But not completely. Remember that Woody Allen is known for living in New York. In fact, since this form of "analysis" is old, IIRC there's...

this is the best thread on /sci/ today .

Pretty good really. Viaducts built by Romans 2000+ years ago are still standing.
I would be much more concerned with buildings from the 1970's.

Warning: This is a social sciences thread.
Hear me out on this one: Traditionally, the stereotype has been that women are more right-brain dominant (creative, intuitive, emotional) and not logical. Problem is, Hemispheric dominance has long fallen out of favor with actual cognitive psychologists and neurologists.
I think you could actually make the opposite case that men are emotional and women are logical, based on the confidence gap between sexes.
Basically, men tend to overestimate their own abilities and take more risks due to testosterone, whereas...

Also before anybody tells me to take this to /pol/, you know damn well what their circlejerk response would be. Thought I'd have more luck here.

>you know damn well what their circlejerk response would be
You're not in luck anon. Most /sci/ people here have nothing to do with social sciences (including me). The rest are /pol/ and /r9k/ lurkers who try to validate their views through science no matter how delusional or biased. I'll give you one guess as to which threads a scientifically illiterate polack is going to reply in, either the one that has to do with actual natural science, or the one that he can easily turn...

yes they are
Hey /sci/,
Wut color is:
>> electron?
>> proton?
>> top quark?
>>8040843
They're smaller than the wavelength of visible light so they have no colour
>>8040861
In biology class we used microscopes to zoom in on the protons and shti but the sampls we were given were dyes and that is bullshit. I want to see their real color, even if it is harder to see! Are they like 1940 color?
>>8040882
microscopes can't zoom in on protons.
Mr. /sci/, what does DNA stand for?

>mfw american ''exams'' are 90%+ multiple choice questions
What sort of joke is that? Why don't you do proper exams like the rest of us?
>>8040681
Not at my school. Questions are proof based and if you fuck up you get 0 credit. Some exams are 4 questions so missing one question is an automatic 75
There is a lot of tests and there is a easy way to grade

I swear, this happened in every 100 level math class. At least by the 200 level those jackasses had flunked out and the ones who were left knew better.
what does sci think of someone who exists outside of mainstream academia?
does the fact that he doesnt have what could be called a standard education detract from his potential?
just think this guy is profoundly more intelligent than the vast majority of nobel laureates yet he doesnt have a single degree.
why didnt he receive any support from the mainstream academic community?
>>8040609
he's a brainlet that probably faked his IQ test lol
you are one as well because you fell for his trick
>>8040609
There's nothing wrong with existing outside of mainstream academia. Not everybody wants to be a researcher.
However, not only is teaching yourself harder than having help to learn things, if someone is so passionate about research, why wouldn't they choose to get paid to do research all day instead of doing it for a couple hours after they get home from a job? There's very few autodidacts with frontier-levels of skill for those reasons.
Langan gets no support because his writing is nonsense...

why do you think he faked his IQ test?
just think that there are around 2 standard deviations between a regular person and a full blown drooling retard
and there are about 7 standard deviations between langan and a regular person
there are 3 standard deviations between lagan and a typical nobel-tier genius
he should have people begging at his feet to work on select issues of humankind
this is all very confusing. he has the brainpower to advance humanity leaps and bounds, eg newton...

I don't know if we've discovered enough about the subject but I got a few questions about the gravitational waves.
Why are gravitational waves work as oscillating waves and not a constant ?
What type of energy source are these waves originating from ?
Why isn't gravity just a static force ?
Whats the speed of gravitational waves ?
Are they a type of EM force ?
Is there a way to visualize these waves ?
Is there a way to cancel out or block these waves ?
>>8040581
>Why are gravitational waves work as oscillating waves and not a constant ?
Because they were generated by 2 black holes spiraling into each other
>What type of energy source are these waves originating from ?
2 Black holes
>Why isn't gravity just a static force ?
It is limited by the speed of causality like everything else, and the points of origin were moving
>Whats the...

my questions we not about the picture, it was more about the nature of Gwaves. can you answer again without relating to the black holes ?
>>8040587
if gravitational waves move at C then the solar system wouldnt work

As I understand it, Krokodil is a contaminated opiate. The poorly executed isolation leads to necrosis when the drug is injected.
>WHAT IF SOMEONE SHOOTS IT IN THE AIR OR SOMETHING?
Nothing.
Someone sprays you in the face with a mixture of codeine/hydrocodeine/hydromorphone, etc and
organic solvents and nothing fucking happens.
Can you aerosol a lethal dose of opiates?
Yes. Fentanyl or something like could be given in...

But it still gets into your bloodstream. Cummulative effects of a long term exposure would surely result in a necrosis wouldn't it ?
Magnitude of the resultant force?

Multiple sources cite spinach and quinoa as either alkaline or acid forming. There's no consensus online for those two foods.
Where can I find real research and results on this that are more trustworthy.
altavista.com
>>8040348
As I said. Lots of different websites claim spinach and quinoa are acid forming and alkaline forming. So who is correct?
>>8040346
Spinach I saw to be rather acidic, this could be due to the presence of oxalic acid. But the camps really seem to be divided on wether quinoa is alkalinic.
Then again I imagine that for both cases it heavily depends on where it was grown (soil conditions), method of preservation, transportation, humitidy etc.
Interesting question though!
So /sci/, how does one take notes effectively for class?
I find myself never reading my notes and just memorizing everything, only to dump it all after exams.
This of course only works in the short term and I find myself struggling more and more with courses
>>8040234
I take notes to get rid of the unnecessary bullshit around a topic so that all the things I actually need to remember are in one place. I then focus on rereading the notes/doing problems until I have it all remembered.
1: understand the material
2: distil the parts that need to be memorised and note them down
3: do problems/review notes
simple really
>>8040234
>just memorizing everything
If you have that kind of memory capacity, you don't need to take notes at all. Welcome to the non-brainlet master race.
>>8040234
Why take notes, its redundant. Pay attention and make sure you understand the topic. And just copy notes of someone else....
