Making a choice implies perceiving a pattern.
Maybe you should take your meds
>>8001874
What if we are born without any senses? Can we perceive our own thoughts? As patterns? is that a sense? do we make choices based on that pattern?
Can the pattern make the choice for you?

I am failing out of a fundamentals of math class at my uni. How fucked am I/how do I into smart mode?

>getting baited
Sup /sci/.
I was shit at math when I was a kid. Now I wanna get better. I still struggle with basic concepts like division and number comprehension. Is there a book that introduces these concepts, from the ground up, to an adult, in an intuitive way?
thx
pls respond
I recommend t-81 for solving math
>>8001275
>division
take one number and break it into another number of groups. That's division. You do this every time you split one pizza with 4 friends.
>inb4 you have no friends and eat the whole pie everytime
>number comprehension
How is this even a problem. A number describes an amount, a magnitude. If you honestly can't comprehend numbers the best thing you can do it sit in a corner and count until you understand.
Im going to keep this short and simple!
sorry in advance for my grammar.
I have ADHD like alot of people in the netherlands
That means that school is made very difficult for me without my medicines.
the company eurocept bougth all the rigths to the medicines i use and more then 30,000 other people and by buying the rigths it means no more unbranded signs are allowed to be sold...
Now thats not much of a problem?
well they made it so expensive that every insurance company in the netherlands whont compensate me so now i get a bill of $400...

Drop the medicine, find another solution.
For some it is meditation, for others it is relaxation.
Most of ADHD cases can be prevented by force of will.
fuck you 2 sir if i wanted any attention i would post this on my fucking facebook wall and not on the only fucking site with a good system to stay anonymous
OK, so imagine you got $50,000,000 in funds for any research project you wish to do. All legal restrictions on whatever (radioactive material, embryonic research, etc.) have been lifted. Your lab is the size of a football field. But the catch is that you must pick four of the following people to work on your project with you:
- Jacob Barnett (Physics)
- Kurisu Makise (Neuroscience)
- NJ Wildburger (Mathematics)
- Neil deGrasse Tyson (Physics)
- Bill Nye (Mechanical Engineering)
- Shinichi Mochizuki (Mathematics)
- Thunderf00t (Chemistry)
- VSauce...

Are the effects people feel while microdosing psychedelics mostly placebo?
I've taken 1g of poorly dried shrooms. I did feel something, but it didn't make me want to do any of that.

It's bullshit.
I wanna try this now. Too bad all of my acid is always on blotter paper and therefore impossible to measure accurately.

Hi /sci/,
I'm working on a theory to enable FTL travel. Suppose that the universe is contained inside the event horizon of a 4th dimensional black hole, and the expansion of the universe - roughly 479 times the speed of light as observed from the centre - could be explained by the growth of the singularity and thus the gravity well. We can never move away from the singularity, thus any point beyond the observable universe is permanently unreachable to us.
Within the event horizon of a 3D black hole, there are three dimensions of movement, however the Z dimension...

Do you have any facts to back that up? How does this fit in with relativity? In relativity, any FTL travel is time travel
>>7997756
math please
>>7997759
>In relativity, any FTL travel is time travel
Correct, but rather than travelling faster than light in a local reference frame, we're accelerating time in a local reference frame.
Thus we never break the speed of light locally, but in the reference frame of the universe we're moving FTL.
>>7997763
Just as soon as I figure out how to move through the 4th dimension. Or did you want my math on the expansion rates?

I was reading a thread that said "a proposition and its negation being false cannot be proven".
Something and its negation being false cannot be proven? Of course it's false.... (Everyone in New York is gay) and (Not everyone in New York is gay) is false because either everyone in New York is gay or not... What other proof do you mathematicians need???
well everyone in new york IS gay, so...
>>8001005
>because either everyone in New York is gay or not
Right, so they can't both be false.

I don't understand how works an atomic bomb. Can someone explain me? Thanks.
>>7999614
nice try Kim Yong Un
>>7999619
>haters gonna hate
>>7999614
The process of "splitting the atom" or nuclear fission which breaks apart the nucleus of one parent element, creating two daughter nuclei and some excess energy in the form of neutrons and gamma rays which then go on to carry out more splitting of atoms in a chain reaction
>>7999614
Some elements like uranium and plutonium are naturally radioactive. They spontaneously release neutrons which go into other nuclei. This makes the other nuclei unstable so they decay as well, continuing the process. If the neutron doesn't go into another nucleus, the reaction will die out.
However, if you do have enough together, they will decay in a chain reaction. This releases a shitload of energy since each decay releases a bit. You can get enough material together by imploding it to make it more dense, adding neutron reflectors, and just adding more of it.
That's a regular nuke. A hydrogen bomb has one of those to start it, but it uses the energy from that to start fusion, which is when deuterium and tritium, two isotopes of hydrogen, fuse together releasing a neutron and a shitload of energy. You can add more fusion stages to increase the yield, you can play around with the primary shapes (not always spherical but most are) and you can do boosted fission which is a mix of both.
Obviously there are a lot of details I skimmed over but this is the gist of it.

hey /sci/, would VLSI be a good field to get into for an ECE student? The only downside I heard about it is that you need the grades to get hired out of college, but I have those.
>>7996656
How many classes have you had dealing with VLSI? Also, how much circuit experience do you have? It can be a very tedious and rigorous subject but you can work at some very cool places
>>7996719
I am a frosh planning out my curriculum for the rest of college, and deciding what track to take for my capstone project senior year. As you could imagine, I have not yet taken any formal classes on VLSI, but do have some experience with circuits. I find the topic very interesting, and plan to self teach myself some basics about it through books as well.
>>7996730
Are there other subjects you are interested in? Your question seems weirdly worded since it really depends on what you find the most interesting subject is. Certainly VLSI can be a good focus area for your technical classed but there are others as well. Do you have any more specific questions that would help guide you toward finding an area of interest?
What is that?

just found it on the back of a Finntroll pick and redrew it; thanks; will think about killing myself :>
