Is this faggot right or wrong, /sci/?

problem is incomplete. You have to define around what fixed axis you count the revolutions.
>>7766352
>around circle B
Reading must be hard

>there are people on /sci/ RIGHT NOW who still think 1x1=1
How can it equal one? If one times one equals one that means that two is of no value because one times itself has no effect. One times one equals two because the square root of four is two, so what's the square root of two? Should be one, but we're told its two, and that cannot be.
>>7766184
1 is the identity element of the multiplicative integer group. I don't see why you have a problem with that.
Calm down terrence
>>7766184
Also sqrt(2) != 2
Hey /sci/, can someone please explain to me how and why gyroscopes work? Thanks.
They are God's work, and they work because God wills it. Don't ask questions.
something something inertia

What do you guys think? Does a 5.1 magnitude earthquake sound like a legitimate h bomb test?
What difference does it make what a bunch of pop-sci loving anonymous retards thinks about whether or not the North Koreans posses hydrogen bombs based on any given evidence from the media and/or government agencies?

The presence of radiation is probably the deciding factor.
also /pol/ is that way ^
Hi /sci/
First time taking Differential Equations this semester. Any suggestions of what to expect or how to do well? Thanks!

Advice to newfags: Quit writing your posts like half-assed emails
>>7766280
Do you suggest writing them as full e-mails?

It's just a simple question jerkoff. Either contribute or shut the fuck up
What does /sci/ think of the physics forum?
I don't even know what to think about my programming professor who hasn't given out final grades and it has been three weeks since finals ended.

who's this lazy eye?
What are the important factors in having a long and healthy life?

Plenty of Miku.
PLENTY!
when will science make miku real
How did we evolve to enjoy seasonings?
Salt is an easy one because sodium is an essential nutrient, same with sugar, but what about thyme? oregano? basil? What's the evolutionary purpose of liking spices? Why do they make food taste better?
Seems strange that we could evolve to crave an inconvenient, costly addition to perfectly healthy food.
>>7766004
The answer to "why did we evolve to /x/?" is "just because". Evolution has no purpose, please stop making retarded questions.
You <could> ask "how did we evolve to enjoy seasonings?" I guess which is a really fucking complicated question as I don't think we can pinpoint the points at which we started to like / dislike certain things.
>>7766004
Tell me wtf is inconvenient and expensive about cooking your lentils with cumin and parsley first OP
antioxidants
Who /mathematics as escapism/ here?
The older I get the more insane it becomes

i always liked hard videogames because they challenged me to git gud at them
math is the ultimate hardcore videogame in this sense

Me to be honest
Sup /sci/
I need your help
So I have linear array and elements are sorted form lowest to highest.
I just need algorithm that returns indexes if arr[i]-arr[j]=160.
Runtime should be O(n).
help me /sci/ you're my only hope
try stackoverflow, I hear they love answering these kinds of questions
>>7765937
lmao you lazy fuck
>>7765937
If you are too retarded to figure that out yourself then you should literally put a gun in your mouth.
What are the best books on Measure Theory for a noob?
>>7765894
Why do you need a book on measure theory? Do you not know how to use a fucking ruler?

What's wrong? There's an overly excited guy finishing calculus who's thinking he can fly into Complex Analysis already with his overbearing excitement. Of course he's going to hit a wall but the excitement he shows is really pure and nice. I hope he doesn't fall for the rudin meme and has a good time learning analysis and lin alg.

We literally have the same cringeworthy shitposts by delusional children on /sci/ every day. Don't need to go to reddit for this.
Why is pop-sci so cringe?
Because you know better, anon.
Also I feel I need to point out CGP Grey isn't pop-sci. In fact, he hardly ever posts anything about science. For a physics teacher, he sure knows a lot about politics and history.
only one of those is even pop sci, faggot.
the others are political, health, and pop culture.
kill yourself.

Scott Manley mostly just focuses on science-related video games, especially KSP, so I wouldn't go to his channel if you're looking for serious scientific content.
So I found this comment under a pop science video. Is /sci/ able to give answers to these questions? Or is he/she right?
Is the standard model full of shit?
>The Standard Model theories are actually based on an utterly false foundation.
>Here are the biggest problems in physics
1. 122 orders of magnitude difference (10 to the power of 122) between the Cosmological Constant (dark energy or vacuum energy at the cosmological scale thought to be responsible for the expansion of our universe) and...

Even if scientists can only say "I don't know" to all of those questions, what's the point? How does this refute the standard model?
>>7765721
>I found this comment under a pop science video.
Saged because ou are:
1) Asking for simple and mathematics free explanations of things that are heavily dependent on mathematics; therefore the explanation will be incorrect
2) you haven't made the effort to study and understand these things yourself
3) you don't understand the meaning of your question "Is the standard model full of shit?" because of your lack of knowledge of physics. Hence any answer...

4. Matter is the source of mass, therefore the source of energy is matter, and the source of matter is energy.
Overall, this person just seems to be asking a bunch of questions that either have already been answered but are too technical for this pop science-viewing "intellectual" to begin to understand or don't have answers to them as of right now.
For all we know, our understanding of the universe might be a tiny bit incorrect or fundamentally incorrect, but we're trying our best...
