If the multiverse existed in which all possibilities have occurred in at least one universe then a universe would exist in which a being developed a way to travel through the multiverse and would have come here
Multiverse busted

>If the multiverse existed in which all possibilities have occurred in at least one universe then a universe would exist in which a being developed a way to travel through the multiverse
Unless that's not possible.
Except multiverse theory doesn't state that all possibilities have occurred, it states that there are infinite universes with infinite possibilities.
multiverse =/= many-worlds

Can someone point me to the right direction for starting my quest of learning how to begin understanding an answer to the above question?
Just convert P into Jordan normal form.
>>7746824
That's easier said than done if you don't even know what a Jordan normal form is.

how about you look it up?
So I had a deal with my parents that if I watch a video of some priest that hey chose they will watch a video that I chose.
Which video do I play to them?
I don't want it to be agressive.
It's past your bedtime kid

Hey 4chan, could you help me? For the past year or so I start to see quick, vivid, flashing images, Usually disturbing ones, when I'm tired. I have no kind of medical disorder I know about. These pictures occur whenever I am tired, during the very short time in which I blink. Abouf 5-7 images per blink. Anyone have a fix? Please help
epilepsy?
I Don't have any medical disorder, and I don't have epilepsy.

>Unknown Medical issue, help
"Hey 4chan, could you help me? I clearly have a medical disorder and actually am just dumb as shit lol"
What happens to bacteria when they die?
>inb4 bacteria heaven
I mean, what happens to their remains? what remains do they leave?
Organelles floating freely?
>>7746567
A lot of things can happen, but yeah one of the possibilities is them spilling their innards, especially after a viral infection. Read up on transformation and transduction.

Bumping for general interest

The point of asking is so all the "reading up" can be done here

Which one do you think is better and why?
The pyramid. It is the most structurally sound
>>7746527
>>7746533
cube because these 2 don't like it
>>7746518
Cube, because it's the perfect logical representation of three dimensions, length width and height equal. Spheres are plebes- they occur naturally in celestial bodies and bubbles
but the mighty cube is the stackable achievement of man kind. Tetrahedrons are arranged creatively to form houses. 90 degree angles are the most beautiful angles since they unite the earth and sky.
I love cube
Why is biochemistry so much more interesting than pure chemistry?
I guess because you get to learn how your body works or whatever
In the meantime, organic chemists are making FUCKING MOLECULAR CAGES
>>7746419
Because chemistry is only interesting in applied situations. Pure chemistry doesn't have some deep interpretation like pure physics does.
>>7746437
it does, for biochemists
Starting my path in mathematics, any suggestions on mathematicians to get up to speed on?
Also do you believe math will unlock the secrets of the universe that we are looking for?
>>7746412
use something like anki or even physical flashcards so you can always be grinding out memorization during down time
Where are you right now in your journey?
>>7746412
do you believe math will unlock the secrets of the universe that we are looking for?
No, because math does not reflect reality.
So if there are infinite universes in which things are slightly different then the other..
Is theren't a universe where a blade of grass was leaning to the left, but everything was the same as ours now? Or one where it's leaning to the right and everything is the same?
At what point are these multiverses just like the Stage or Level creator of a game where you dictate it's environment based on just your imagination alone? Because after all, these are INFINITE, anything you can think of can happen, given the prior conditions of the universe in mind...

i believe this is a small part of why alot of scientist believe in a creator.
Just like we create a videogame world its inhabitants have no idea of the world outside but are able to study how things work, study the code,
our games are rather primitive since they are made from 1s and 0s and it ends there, but the game of our world well it seems to just go on and on and on and on and on and on with no end in sight
i can but wonder how deep will it go until we reach the "1s and 0s". And thats not even...

The multiverse theory is a failed attempt to ignore the Creator's intelligence and will. It pretty much implies heaven and hell, magic and randomness, whilst a smart Creator is a simpler and more coherent explanation for our fine tunning. Multiverse theory is Modern Paganism.
>energy can neither be created or destroyed.
This is wrong. Energy can be pulled so far it becomes flat.
I was wondering if their are any good computer programs or software thats free that can be used for particle annihilation simulations and basically anything a quantum physicist would need.
Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders - The most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war in Asia" - but only slightly less well-known is this: "Never start a thread in which the title image is more interesting than the post"!

Since time is all perspective based on position and direction/speed of travel that suggests that free will is an illusion. Your future has already happened in the perspective of someone across the galaxy moving in the opposite direction.
Doesnt this also sugest that theres a mathematical equation that can predict the future as well?
>pic unrelated
>>7746270
you've yet to define time using anything other than fragile calculus equations
>>7746275
Bu-but i didnt post any equations...

Then post some
The only theories of evolution you tend to hear about are Lamarck's, Haeckel's and Darwin's. Are there any other major theories of evolution? Are any of them remotely viable?
There are also Morgan, Mendel, Miller & Urey, Dawkins, Altman, and many others.

According to the demarcation criterion of pseudoscience originally proposed by Lakatos, a theory is pseudoscientific if it fails to make any novel predictions of previously unknown phenomena, in contrast with scientific theories, which predict novel fact(s).[14] Progressive scientific theories are those which have their novel facts confirmed and degenerate scientific theories are those whose predictions of novel facts are refuted. As he put it:
"A given fact is explained scientifically only if a new fact...

Describe the Riemann zeta function and some of its properties as intuitively as possible.
Try to make the reader extremely interested in the Riemann zeta function.

keh
As a metaphor it can be said that the Riemann Zeta function is that where you have a mechanical bull and it's rider; the rider plays the function of meta-physical resistance to the bulls tetrating speed, the tetration is caused by the allocation of input compared to the riders proficiency, but there's a catch, the resistance that the rider portrays is created as the input of energy is put up is increased exponentially to the point that the bull bulls energy distribution when put into further energy...

Thanks for the in-depth description, it really shed some light on the subject matter.
Well, almost a month ago my mom got the idea of doing an iq test, so we contacted mensa and we did one. Well, three days ago my mom and I received our letter of acceptance. Turns out my iq is barely above the minimum requirement and my mom's iq is probably higher than the test limit. I'm a physics student and my mom is a entrepreneur. She managed to get out of poverty by selling candies. I can't even get out of college. So /sci/, do I even get any chance of succeeding in life?
ps: my mom can do every assignment that I get on college.
sry about any mistake...

What are you angry about? Just work harder. If you mom can do every assignment without prerequisite knowledge then your uni is shit.
>>7746139
She studied the feynman lectures when she was younger. I got interested in physics because of her and those books. I'm just frustrated as fu.ck.
nope
enjoy being dumber than your mom in every measurable way
protip: your exact situation is what the term "regression" was created to describe
Let the nth derivative of f(x) equal a non-zero constant c.
Knowing n and c, what if anything can be said about f?
Hint: apply the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.
Hardmode: Only knowing c, what can be said about f?
n+1th derivative = 0
