Penn state, USA I'm ending my 6th semester as an undergrad

Read, practice, experiment. Reduce the time you spend on unproductive tasks (like whining on 4chan).

Eat healthy, lose weight, and stop smoking.

Be happy about what you're studying and stop thinking about life success in terms of wealth acquisition.

Let someone who can help you know about your predicament and give you advice.

I literally cannot comprehend how someone in their final undergrad year would go on an imageboard to ask a bunch of neckbeards what to write his fucking thesis on.

Just how autistic are you? Go talk to your fucking professors.

Just interested in some ideas that I may not have thought about

"A Polynomial Time Solution to the TSP Problem"

And each one of those 500 kids is paying $20,000 a year and they probably have 20 more lecture theatres on that campus. You can see why the Jews tell kids to go to college.

>>7993675
This is what doesn't make sense.

They are paying like 50k per semester to learn Calculus I and the only benefit this could have is that they can ask questions to their professors, something they couldn't do if they self studied.

But how do you even ask? I mean, take a look at the picture in OP and tell me how the fuck do you ask a question when you are the guy sitting at the back?

You don't get a single benefit by going to such a class.

Also, with so many morons around you,...

That's not a calc class. More likely, that's an orientation seminar, or some kind of meeting of student government members or something.

We do have lecture classes that can get to like 100 students at some universities, but those are the most basic "intro to computers" classes.

anova is for testing groupd differences, you want linear regression

>>7993536
oh okay thanks

>>7993516
What hypothesis test are you using? There's plenty, but I know you psychologists only use the most basic babby statistics

There are humans who take interest in apes right ?
So there definitely are aliens that would take interest in us

axiom wrong but logic correct

>>7992820
One interpretation is that it is not the case you're not alive, so it doesn't matter what the consequent is; the statement is still valid.

However, it's best to think of -> as a formal symbol that doesn't correspond exactly to our every day english usage of "if x then y" or "implies". It's just a mathematical symbol that is defined a certain way. The confusion comes from logic classes in philosophy departments that try to link it to natural language interpretations.

You...

Well, what you're doing is treating the truth value of the term in the parentheses as stemming from the semantical interpretation of its constituent letters. this is your problem.
What you have to do is consider the rules for conditionals,
T->T = T
T->F = F
F->F = T
F->T = T

For conjunctions

F^T = F
F^F= F
T^F = F
T^T = F

When considering P->(P ^ –P), treat the term in the parentheses as one letter, for example q. Treat P as P. This yields
P->Q

Not a theory. Not science. Don't post this shit here.

Would be pretty cool if it were true.

>in societies which allow orgy men cannot trace lines of male paternity, men cannot trace lines of male paternity. What does this mean? It means that men do not identify with children as property. It means that the men of that kind of a social group can only think in terms of our children, we the group, our children. And it creates an immensely cohesive social glue that I believe held these societies together for millennia.

DUDE WEED LMAO

I know it's a scifi book but it does a good job of explaining the three body problem in layman terms. Basically it's impossible to predict the outcome of a three body problem unless you know the starting states of all three bodies.

Without commenting on the originality of the villain, the most efficient way to make humans go extinct, which is an extremely difficult task by the way, would be some kind of genetically engineered airborne disease. Work with that.

He sits in an air-tight chamber with a giant pump sucking all the air that we breathe out of the atmosphere. It's then condensed into liquid form and set alight and the bi product sent back out into the atmosphere. Eventually there will be no air left and because his "lair" is in the middle of some remote jungle no one would know the source.

Not clicking, have an (OP) though.

When we are able to synthesize enough graphene to put in every solar panel, most problems we have today will already be solved.

>>7992172
I saw that it's about 6% efficient in its process. This means 6% of the energy of a raindrop interacting with the graphene layer. Basically barely any energy at all in terms of practical use, but it's cool I guess

Proven status: Proved.

I hope to make it my field of study if I stay in academia

I think that is a kickass textbook.

Counting seems pretty hard and doesn't seem very useful once you get beyond the basics. Similar thoughts about graph theory desu.

I used to like these topics and other "discrete" math topics when I was undergrad, but now I see that differential geometry is way more interesting and useful.

Because it's cool and awesome. But if you lack the interest, you're better off learning something else.

>>7990435
if you are asking that question, you should learn something else

>>7990435
Because it's interesting.

Would a based physicsfag care to explain roughly what the mechanism for the reactor is?

>>7993892
We have fusion reactors you moron. And there's even one in construction that'll generate a net energy.
