I gotta a question fellas: If space and time are one thing, therefore moving in space I am also moving in time.If I was to stop all the energy in my body from moving in their own higgs boson field. Would I therefore be mass-less and not experience time like a photon?

What is your guys' opinion on the Microsoft Surface for note taking as a student? The one note software seems pretty neat but I'm not sure if electronic notes is a good idea.

Hey /sci, looking to get a better solder station. I got the Hakko 888d, but the din connector looks flimsy and does not connect properly. I'm returning it.
I'm looking at the "American Beauty Tools solder station".

Anyone have any experience with this brand? Is it good for soldering electronics? The temp rating is the same as the Hakko.

A google of the brand mostly brings up welding metals. There is a dearth of reviews for electronics tinkering and repair with their brand.

where did you manage to find this crap brand?

>>7798798

Is there any functional problem with your Hakko, or are you just sperging about how flimsy the plug looks? I have had my Hakko for years and it is still trucking along. The only thing better would be a nice inductive iron, but you are looking at an order of magnitude price difference for one that isn't total shit.
>>
>>7799103

The connector does not seat property and pops 1/4 to 1/2 halfway out. I'm returning it. Maybe it was a fluke? Do you have the Analog Hakko?

>>7798965
Google search for "rugged" solder station. I also saw some videos about a ham radio group making some yagis and they had the AB station.

the AB station is 146. USD.
the Hakko 888d is 96 USD and comes with a flush wire cutter.

DXM (found in robitussin) in high doses has been shown to strengthen neural pathways in the brain ,acting as a nootropic, and perhaps is able to increase intelligence with repeated use. There is much information online alluding to this.
>>
>>7798777
I hope not.
One can improve their test results by training.
But that does not make them smarter.

There is another way.
In China, scientists have collected DNA samples from 2,000 of the world’s smartest people, and are sequencing their entire genomes in an attempt to identify the alleles that determine human intelligence. Apparently they’re not far from finding them, and when they do, embryo screening will allow parents to pick their brightest zygote and bump up every generation's intelligence...

The IQ test that I had took into consideration vocabulary and memory games. Most humans (if they really tried) could train themselves to excel at both of these things but not to a rating of 160+.

Im a neurological novice. Im being put on medication for chronic anxiety. Whats the science behind changing brain chemistry with medication? Is it a "permanent" fix?
27 replies and 1 images submitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>7796513
It alone is not permanent. It will stop the effects of your problem for a while and that is why you take it again. You have to keep taking it until you get over your problems but usually the reason you can even get over those problems is because the medication helped you be 'normal'.
>>
>>7796513
It is meant to help you in getting on the right track. Combining medication with psychotherapy yields best results. But you are supposed to quit your mediaction at some point.

Yes this is why im doing it coinciding with therapy. Makes me feel better thanks.

how long does the brain take to repair itself after 5 years of heavy marijuana smoking?
80 replies and 8 images submitted. Click here to view.
>>
The brain does not repair itself.
>>
The damage is permanent.

Actually I'm not really sure. From drugabuse.gov (probably biased)

Marijuana also affects brain development. When marijuana users begin using as teenagers, the drug may reduce thinking, memory, and learning functions and affect how the brain builds connections between the areas necessary for these functions.

Marijuana’s effects on these abilities may last a long time or even be permanent.

For example, a study showed that people who started smoking marijuana heavily in their teens and had an ongoing cannabis use disorder lost an average of eight IQ points between ages 13 and 38. The lost mental abilities did not fully return in those who quit marijuana as adults. Those who started smoking marijuana as adults did not show notable IQ declines (Meier, 2012).

This stuff is amazing. I want to change my major and hope that I somehow end up getting a spot researching here after grad school, but I can't afford to go to college. Oh, well.

Still, has anybody else looked into their work? It's really interesting stuff.

If I win the lottery, being too dumb to provide my mind as a resource, I'd definitely put half the winnings down on helping them move prosthesis and into deeper synthetics development. Best radical life extension plan we have yet for those of us already born.
