anything that is applicable to artificial intelligence tbqh if i had to be totally real with you for a second not even joking family seriously

Should I get a computer science degree or a math degree?
I'm debating
Bsc Math
Msc Machine Learning
PhD AI/Neural Networks
>>7726070
With that master and PhD choices you are already a well rounded memeing memery memology limemericks meme man. Why ruin your meme career with a non-meme undergrad degree. Go all out with the memes and major in CS like a true respectable memeable memer.
Is there any country where I can freely research and experiement in my own home lab and order chemicals without having to register for licenses and contracts.

How smart is he? I've heard from a popular YouTuber, Hannibal the Victor, that he's a really shitty chemist.
>>7725773
He has a pretty good publication record for not being a professor as well as being the lead or co-lead author on almost all of the papers he has published

Kek, feminists getting mad at thunderf00t pointing out various flaws in arguments, he seems legit, I've only read one of his papers by accident and also only disagreed with one of his vids but the rest are flawless and he definitely knows what he's talking about, I've been a subscriber from before his identity was outed

Holy shit bumping does work in this thread, did m00k implement new anti-bump-features for some threads or something?
>>7723255
The OP can't bump their own thread. Thanks for bumping though.
is psychology a science it has to be because it is a social science right?
It's as much a science as possible; the problem being that the human mind is complex. So call it what you want. You'll never describe a person's mental behavior with equations and you can't describe the component parts very well, however you can describe a person's mental behavior.
It's a form of applicable science, but your pic (Psychology Today) is the biggest disgrace to the field that has ever existed.
Why are so many people asking why people are skeptical about climate change? How many more threads do we need till people start believing climate change threads exist?

what is your IQ sci?

I love Modest Mouse, although for me pic related is their best. I wonder what /sci/ listens to, anyway.
I know medical research is notorious for this, and unfortunately it's par for the course, but how can it be that there are dozens if not hundreds of published studies bluntly claiming that the human foreskin has no role in sexual sensitivity? It's astounding how strong cultural and personal bias can be, that these not only get published but highly cited for what seems like relatively shoddy research.
The majority of the world's male population can reach in their pants and readily disprove these results. What happened to science such that it became not only acceptable, but encouraged to ignore empirical data and subjective experience in favor of "data", without even attempting to explain why the individual might falsely believe they're having whatever experience?
I can't imagine what the rest of the developed world is thinking about the US. Whatever drives this attitude obviously leads to disastrous results and prevents poor practices from being uprooted and criticised for what they are, and it isn't limited to just infant genital cutting. It doesn't matter if some large entity comes forward to admit they were wrong, driven by personal bias, or monetarily motivated. It's about a lack of solid research and critical thought.
What is wrong with us? You would think an aversion to compromising the sexual health of members of one's tribe would be one of the most highly conserved higher behaviors there is, aside from cases of control / domination. We're such a strange thing. It's an unpleasant feeling to know what is being done to children who can't meaningfully consent, and knowing things take a very long time to fizzle out if they ever do at all. There is so many things that are just fucked, but we can't even get them outlawed or regulated, much less scientifically and culturally frowned upon with some sort of consensus. Here, take some cholesterol and blood pressure meds too while you're at it, don't change your garbage diet you overpay for.
The medical pedofiles enjoy holding and slicing little boys willies. It's simple. They get a huge, long lasting buzz from it. Sick fucks.

Circumcision is a lousy preventative measure against infection by HIV.
Do NOT support infant nonconsensual genital mutilation.

It's really fucking rude of you not to bother reading any of the links I posted (10+ on HIV alone) and expect me to read yours. Seriously, fuck off. Here's some of them directly taken from those two links I posted so you need to make even less effort to be a dick.

Can you get a staph infection from popping a pimple and not cleaning/covering it properly? I read a thread on reddit where someone popped a pimple, absentmindedly touched it during the day, and then developed a MRSA infection. Something tells me the pimple he popped was the beginning of a MRSA infection since early on, it often appears as a whitehead. Sometimes my pimples pop on their own so this shit is terrifying.

>not cleaning the wound with hydrogen perxoide
do you even want to live?
>>7726169
you clean your popped pimples with hydrogen peroxide? hasn't hydrogen peroxide been found to be pointless? my understanding is that it doesn't kill shit and it may actually damage tissue, hindering wound healing.
>>7726163
Even tiny scratches can kill you man, if it wasn't for modern medicine.
I was scratched on my leg by my cat when I was a kid.
It got infected and made this "hole" in my leg about 1/2 cm in diameter and 1cm deep.
It burned like hell.
Doctor had to cut way the dead flesh and I had to take antibiotics. It wasn't anything as bad as an MRSA infection, but still.
Living in a pre-antibiotics world must have sucked.
Is it actually worth the cost?

Scientists always fall for the logical positivism meme. And they don't even realize it's a philosophical position with philosophical justifications....
They're pretty dumb to be honest. They have massive tunnel vision and because of that they don't realize their epistemic assumptions and treat the scientific methodology as axiomatic, they think it's common sense. And when someone approaches a problem with a different epistemological framework they think it's bullshit...
They're simply very bad at thinking outside of a scientific...

Hi.
Can electromagnetism be considered a force in itself, distinct from electricity, and magnetism, alone, and more than just the mutual interaction of those two?
>>7728022
You're trying to get at the point of friction in a vacuum I assume?
>>7728045
No, I want the/an answer to the question in the OP.
>>7728022
Electricity and magnetism are just two different manifestations of the same thing. That's why they can be linked under electromagnetism.
