If you truly want to understand the answer, you'll have to know everything about quantum mechanics.

It's completely possible. 'Organic matter' is just the stuff primordial life found fit to create itself from and ultimately similar systems could be made from other elements.

A organic brain compared to a synthetic, non-organic brain may have some differences in design and it may be hard to counteract some things such as response times of electrical signals if we have to upscale certain systems in the brain but overall I don't see why we couldn't.

There's no reason to attempt it for at least a century or two from now and it's...

Surely this topic is currently being researched and looked into at this very moment.
The other question is: how do we know we're conscious? Yeah we're aware of what happens around us, but how do we know that we truly are conscious? What animals fall under the category of being conscious? If so, what are the requirements?

It may be a future home for humanity, little kids will ask their father what the planets name means, and they will reply.
"It comes from Some ancient japanese cartoon about half naked men/aliens screaming at each other"

Well, i guess i could let it pass as earth means "dirt" or "the ground" in latin.

I like the idea

I am getting real tired of planets being named "X5340-343" kind of shit. Sure, keep it that way in the scientific catalogs for database purposes, but giving a planet a good name is important, and I think we lost that spirit of the whole thing along the way somewhere.

I think it's good to give boring names to boring planets

So far we have confirmed the existence of over 2000 exoplanets, most of which consist of gas giants with no particular characteristic. In the next few years (basically with TESS and its successors) we'll start to find small and rocky planets which may possibly be similar to earth. At that point we'll start giving them cool names, also because the general public will become interested etc

is that one of those 'overdose' studies or did they apply 'typical household' concentrations of the drug?

Dude seriously i'm fucking scared now after reading this paper, it says even the normal dose habits for addicts produce neurotxicity, and like

i've used adderall on lots of tests before after /sci/ told me of its use in hardcore studying.

It says that cognitive function usually improves after stopping amphetamines use but does that mean recovers to normal completely? am I fucked...

I don't think a retard would ask such a question

Energy doesn't have a form, anon.

Do I exist, or am I simply a property of a biological system?

It's more energetically favourable for water to exist in a gaseous form than a liquid form. Another mystery solved.

that depends totally on temperature, pressure, etc and cannot be generalized in that way

It's a shitty measure.

take the limits fag
dividing by a number less than 1 is the same as multiplying
answer to a is infinite cakes
answer to b is 0x infinichan =1

More like trying to divide a cake equally by cutting it into slices with a width of 0

If x - x = 0 then why can't we divide by 0?

Are you some sort of retard? You can divide by zero. You just don't because you're a coward. Find some sensibility in your fear of quantum dynamics but you will never be at peace.

Good shit sci. Noone even noticed that e^(ipi) is in fact equal to negative 1. Jesus christ.

>Once I got drunk and decided I could get laid easier by tricking girls with my scientific knowledge of the vagina.

Drunk Theorem: Knowledge is sexy.

By tricking girls into thinking I know exactly what way to tickle their clit and I can make them orgasm in minutes, I can get them back to my place in no time.

Counter example: getting slapped. Hard.

But let's say you're at the bar. Dressed nice.
>walk up to inebriated 8/10 grill
>hey my name is blank, I bet I can make you orgasm in minutes
>swiftly get slapped across the cheek
Probably setting the bar too high for an example but hey.

>plz no slap
>"uhh, lol okay I'll bite"
First test subject.

This girl was in college I'm assuming.
I offered to take her to a nice restaurant and get her a drink somewhere more confortable. We drove to this place down the road, walking distance really. I'm making casual conversation and she's asking what I plan to ask her that's so "orgasmic". I tell her she has to wait.

>arrive at this place, thankfully were wearing the right formal attire
>order our food and drinks
>the whole time I'm not even really flirting openly with her but I still have her interest.
>making more casual conversation. Abruptly and without warning I immediately say, in the middle of her speaking..
>"when's the last time you orgasmed in another man's bed from nothing but the tip of his penis"
>"how good was the orgasm itself? How long did it last?"
>immediately tosses back her drink
>shocked I'd ask such a thing
>but she obliges me with this answer: never before have I been asked that and basically she says no that's never happened to me and I'm not sure how that's possible
>lol so this is the question
>have you had enough to drink to want to fuck me yet?
>laughter,followed by a yes and a quick ride to her place
>doesnt matter had sex

I would just buy a cheap, large screen tablet off of a Chinese site if that is your only use for the tablet. Make sure it supports a high capacity microSD card and having a decent amount of internal memory wouldn't hurt either.

By the way, a similar sequence with the factorial in place of the primorial will yield e.

Can the slope be used to determine whether a sequence very likely converges to zero or a positive value?
Does it look like n/((n#)^(1/n)) > 0 for all n?
What does theory on growth of primes say about whether or not (n#)^(1/n) grows quickly enough to make n/((n#)^(1/n)) null?

recommend me the best book about organic chemistry

>>7692536
not OP but i'll tell you it's organic chemistry by clayden, greeves, warren, wothers

http://www.amazon.ca/Organic-Chemistry-Jonathan-Clayden/dp/0198503466

don't buy from there, find a used copy for like 20 dollars. I'm only a first year chem major, I've read half of it and now I'm pretty ready to destroy my second year.

thanks my man

No "cure don't act retarded

It's called positive eugenics.

Once everyone is smart though society will collapse. You need stupid people to do all the drone/wageslave work.
