And now, I can't even write properly.
Just fucking kill me.
It's not a joke when people say if you don't know how to study you will fail.

Why are elementary particles so perfectly identical?
An electron from my body is exactly the same as an electron in a star 300 light years away. Not just similar but indistinguishable.

If you like gorillas so much, why don't you go the damn zoo and FUCK A GORILLA and stop posting these FUCKING GORILLAS.

how do you know they're identical?

Isn't it a theorem of some sort in quantum physics
Why does the human brain have the same fundamental structure as the cosmos and the entire universe? Is there a good scientific reason?

THANK YOU SCIENCE
>>7918910
Well, biology and chemistry are not hard sciences so
THANK YOU VOODOO MAGIC!
pretty much.
But that's actually very nice. Our witch doctors have been getting better and better.

There's always a chance for treatment resistant forms.
But even the vanilla hodgkins treatment isn't that bad, it's one of the more convenient forms of cancer as it typically only grows as a cluster of enlarged lymph nodes, with the fatal cause being that it grows so huge that it compresses the airway(as opposed to other cancer that eats your internal organs alive)
OK /sci/ I know this is more of a /biz/ question, but they've been pretty dead lately.
What are the implications of automating most jobs with robots because that seems to be a serious thing a LOT of big businesses are considering? With all the talk of driverless cars, robots doing everything from cooking, trucking, data admin work, cleaning, accounting and programming, like seriously, WTF will all these MILLIONS of people who formerly used to do all these menial jobs do instead? All the academics are saying we should have a “basic income” where everyone gets...

>All the academics are saying we should have a “basic income”
I'm an academic and I don't say this. This is a dumb fucking idea to be honest. Where I live such speech comes mainly form parasites already freeloading on the system in one way or another (house squatters, "communist"/anarchist edgelords, government benefitters, etc.).
Why don't you look at history, in particular to the industrial revolution. Loads of people were laid off, but they just retrained to do some other job.

top kek, either a /pol/fag making shit up or a completely retarded TA/Grad student

How can i objectively boost my IQ? Not interested in supplements IE creatine, adderal, ginkgo bilba etc
Open to dietary advice though

brain surgery
Unless you have a mental illness or retardation, just use your brain.
Studies have been done that show that motivated test takers do better on IQ tests than non-motivated (using incentives).
Study difficult subjects that are mentally challenging for you. You'll be surprised how constantly learning and applying knowledge makes you better at IQ tests.
Being able to sit down and focus sincerely is a skill that needs to be developed.

Well dude I was reallysheltered AND neglected so I think that really made me just fucking stupid. Like I'm 18 and graduated highschool not knowing how to do long division
If a spaceship is traveling in a circle overhead at 90% speed of light and broadcasting a live stream of themselves, would we be watching them in slow motion?
No it'd move to fast for anyone to see it.

I'm pretty sure that this makes for a non-inertial frame of reference.
If you had the option to be born 500 years from now instead of whatever year it was that your were born in, would you do it?
I think I would for a few different reasons concerning science, but primarily for vactrains.
Yes, the Technological Singularity would have happened by then.

>Technological Singularity would have happened by then.
get a load of this guy
>>7918479
Only a sentimental idiot would say no. 500 years into the future? Every ailment that kills people today eliminated? Fuck yes. Take me right now and birth me.

Are you saying its blown out of proporstion and that they are wrong?
>>7918495
Yes, illusion is wrongly perceiving reality. They are admitting to being wrong.

Honestly, I just want an action figure or paperweight made of the stuff. Silhouette changes as you walk by, looks flat from any angle.

That shit must get really hot in any lighting condition.
Does it also absorb IR/UV light too?
How does it fare with radar or microwaves?
Imagine a president of this color; harder to snipe with a laser sight.

Aim for the teeth
After thinking about this for quite some time...what's with mathfags and always doing proofs by contradiction? Why not just make a heavily inductive argument so that nobody would read the proof and just assume that it is correct?

You fucking GORILLA ASSFAG don't learn, do you? After the tons of threads of you were taken down there are already THREE braindead threads up again. If you enjoy being raped by a thoughtful GORILLA go to the fucking jungle disguised as filthy gorilla fag and die.
if f(x) is continuous, does it follow that df(x)/dx is continuous?
>>7918250
No, f(x)=|x|
Also, you're not guaranteed there even is a derivative
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weierstrass_function
>>7918259
suppose the function is differentiable. does it follow in that case?
>>7918263
Nope, standard example is [math]f[/math] defined by [math]f(x) = x^2 \sin(\frac{1}{x}) [/math] for [math] x \neq 0, f(0) = 0 [/math] iirc. That function is differentiable everywhere, but the derivative spazzes out around [math]x = 0[/math].
Look at this Reddit AMA that Bill Gates did today. He confirmed that he took a double courseload at harvard and left all his studying for the last few weeks and still got straight As. The relevant link is below.
This confirms that brainlets exist and the hard work maymay was a maymay all along. Gates just unzipped his skull and rammed his Big Black Brain up and down the knowledge shaft without any nuance or technique - and still succeeded. Remember that not only was this at Harvard, which has harder courses than your Podunk university, this was 40 years ago, before huge...

You could get to his level through hard work. But his mind was trained his whole life by people surrounding him and himself. While you sit and complain on 4chan. That's why you are a brainlet, a life of addictions.
It makes me happy that he's very smart. So many people get rich by being horrible and/or lucky.
I would like to see his transcript.
How do, /sci/?
Isolate a single variable and solve, then go back and solve for the others. Literally how hard is this?
>>7918190
Only z can be found that way.
>>7918192
Find z, you have it in integers. use it as a solution to the other equation, assuming they belong to the same system. (YOU MIGHT WANT TO USE A LOGARITHM)
