https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulpa
I don't believe these to be anything more than self induced hallucinations. But I've heard claims that a tulpa could have perfect recall of the contents of your memory, or that it could perform mental calculations separately from you. Are these kind of things even possible, or is it just autists being autists?
>>7934001
No /sci/, no. We've moved passed this, now we're more interested in "does [math] 1+2+3+ \cdots =-1/12 [/math]"
>>7934001
What the fuck? It's not even a hallucination, it's just an imaginary friend. You think they can do anything you want them to do, if you have the mind of a 5 year old.
>>7934012
You mean [math]\sum_{k=0}^{ \infty } k = - \frac_{1}{12}[/math] :^)
so i fucked up and have no idea how to do it. anyone wanna give a helping hand?
Im fucked up too
send help
I'll only help if you first tell me which part of the problem you're struggling with and explain to me all of your work and/or reasoning so far.
Say you've got a circuit with a lightbulb. Using P = IV for that lightbulb, an increased resistance results in less power and therefore not as bright of a bulb. But to me this doesn't make much sense because the visible light from a lightbulb is due to its resistance in the first place. So why would decreasing the resistance increase the amount of visible light generated?

I've been studying nutrients and food for a while now and im going to start eating the same 3 meals for a year.
Breakfast: Black & Brown rice
Lunch: fish (any) or/and black & brown rice
Dinner: vegetable soup or stew
any of the following can be added to the above meals:
all legumes, beans or peas, all unsalted raw nuts, all brassica, nightshade, carrot, cucurbitaceae, cucurbit, amaryllidaceae vegetables, herbs, spices, lemon, lime, apple, banana, olives, avocado sweet potato, celery.
All of the food mentioned will be organic, non-canned, untreated, non-gmo whole foods. Which means no variants of the food such as rice flour, soy milk or bullshit like that. Just the way nature intended.. the fish will only be fish i've caught myself. More often than not i'll be steaming my food lightly.
it's essentially an organic wholefood gluten free pesco-vegan diet that avoids most sugars
I've worked at a strawberry farm, chicken abitoir, fish farm, apple orchard, jam manufacturer and some nurserys that sell their foods to local supermarkets and im going to be honest with you guys.. its not good... the added shit that you're eating, the pesticides.. and half the time "hormone free" isnt... it just... isnt. They lie. (ausfag if anyones wondering)
Im just trying to be good to my body.

how fucked am i?.. nutritionally? or financially?

Skimmed it tb h
What do you think of living off of potatoes and milk? And why isn't that largely your diet?
>>7933827
>the way nature intended it.
But you could never know what nature intended. If you think organic is really that, then maybe do some more reading. We have selectively bred this stuff for thousands of years.
But you will definately be healthier than the average jo, and ultimately that's what you are trying to do. Good luck!
Probably have to do it for more than a few years to reap any long term benefits... Like indefinitely.
>>7933827
>All of the food mentioned will be organic, non-canned, untreated, non-gmo whole foods
a study was made in my country about how those types of food, offer no benefit over normal "non" organic shit, it is only more expensive, so go nuts

I feel like this is the definitive game. They've seen each others' strengths and weakness and styles. I'm looking forward to it. I'm no expert, so I have to ask, can the game end in a draw? If so, is it very common at the higher levels of play?

>I feel like this is the definitive game.
I have to agree, we saw that AlphaGo has some weaknesses and it should be quite interesting to see if Lee Sedol can repeat what he was able to achieve last game.
Here there are very intelligent people with high IQs, but they are socially awkward incels (involuntary celibate) and virgins who failed at the main objective of species (reproducing) When the more dumb Chad gets all the chicks. Why do you waste your time with matematics and science? when you know you are genetic waste, you should all suicide, for the better of humanity and to make a lit better the genetic pool.

>they are socially awkward incels (involuntary celibate)
If we're "socially awkward", you're the king of the spergs for using the term "incels (involuntary celibate)"
>>7933068
kek
>>7933064
Ok. I'll break it down for you.
The fact that you use the term "Chad" tells me that you rather belong on /r9k/, but i'll bite.
>calling teenies having sex "reproducing"
If they have a child, it's going to be fucked up due to bad parenting. So, no it's not what i would call "reproducing".

Anyone else have an Iron Ring?
Did you go for Iron or SS?
>>7933028
>wearing a womens ring
Is that an engineer's ring? Getting mine in October. Prolly not gonna wear it.
>>7933038
Yeah it is, I wear it primarily for job interviews.
/diy/ here, I am thinking of making a duct for my propeller to get rid of tip vortex losses and for that sweet Coanda lift. The big question was what size to make the duct lip? Is my conclusion in pic related correct? Apparently the size doesn't matter.
Nobody here knows basic algebra?
the real question is why do you write lowercase f like a fucking retard
>>7933022
You knew it was an "f" therefore it is an "f".
Anyone get crazy dopamine and adrenaline rushes from solving maths problems and seeing good exam/assignment results?
I fucking love it brehs.

....i'm fairly certain most people do
>>7932904
I'm like a drug addict, chasing after my next high.
>>7932891
that's pretty pathetic if you are still atvthe stage where you assignments/exams
If you were doing actual research or participating in math olympiads or whatever, it would be understandable. Because then it's normal. That though just means your parents/teachers manipulated you.
If it's raining uniformly at a constant rate, will I get more wet if I stand still or run on a flat surface?

You'll get more wet if you stand in the rain like a retard you fucking idiot.
>>7932932
But you only run to get out of the rain.
Could it be possible that there is life in interstellar space, like in nebulae for example?
they would have to be ethereal in nature, of which exist on earth already, that we cannot observe, or are unwilling to attribute to life
>>7932636
>ethereal
Uhh.....
>>7932645
you are ethereal
every thought you have is just some electrical energy, distributed in a certain way
and in your physical brain (as in the rest of your body) it is the pattern which is consistent, not the matter it is made of
what's a good book for a relative normie to understand things, in a layman's way, like theoretical math?

The /sci/ site books page has quite a few choices, and links to where you can get them if interested. It also depends on what you are curious about. The page is broken up by topic so take your pick, not sure how up to date it is though. https://sites.google.com/site/scienceandmathguide/general/books
