Is eugenics theory legitimate, or is it a pseudoscience? Even the most aggressive opponents of it admit that many disorders are heritable, so is it only opposed for ethical reasons?
Phenomes and alleles are two different things. That's a pretty simple fact, but you /pol/ degenerates are unable to understand it.
>>7994995
>implying it's opposed
Leftists are pushing anti-white eugenics all over the western world.
Incentive-based eugenics is an ideal way to reconcile the absolute right of individual self-determination with the appealing potential benefits of manipulating the gene pool. Want to limit the addictive personality traits passed down to the next generation? Offer a stipend of free drugs & alcohol to individuals who undergo voluntary sterilization. Want to limit the amount of low-intelligence genes? Offer up some Big Bang Theory dvd box sets or a meet & greet with the Kardashians or some shit. I think this is legit great idea and I don't understand why we don't at leave have a trial program. I understand the legacy of forced eugenics is pretty terrible but most compulsory programs are bad, doesn't mean they couldn't be good when they're voluntary
Hey guys, what would happen if for exactly 1 second, the earth's gravity field changed. Instead of 9.8 m/s^2 toward the center of mass, it has 9.8 m/s^2 pointing east(except north and south pole, which have no gravity). After 1 second, it goes back to normal. How fucked are we, what happened?
>>7994787
Everything at rest and not fixed would move about 4.9 meters to the east.
>>7994794
How would this affect houses, infrastructure, ect? How short must buildings be to withstand this?
What's a good way to stop doing stupid shit like 4chan and vidya? Currently, need to get my shit together, how the fuck to i increase my self control? Help a fellow anon pls
t. physics fag
/adv/'s fuckin shit, full of desperate virgins, please send help bros.
I feel you physics bro
>tfw 3 hour particle physics exam in 4 weeks and I'm watching Dota
I found that going to a library full of people studying motivates me
Don't stay home
>>7993622
Don't play video games, don't go on 4chan, excercise some discipline.
>>7993639
No, seeing people studying makes me stressed out, TI is coming i'm fked, but have to watch TI fuck
Oh, so you're good at calculus anon? Can you find the derivative of this function for me please? What, you can't? You must not be very good then!
>>7992740
give me the function and i'll find it BITCH
Analysis is the anal sex of mathematics, it feels great when stuff works, but if you're not careful you get covered in shit and diseases.

>he doesn't immediately recognize the weierstrass function
this makes no sense. how can you take a continuous sum of the area under a curve? wouldn't this be a never ending operation?
>Just high school things
>>7992546
It's just that i don't understand how this isn't an approximation.
>>7992544
makes perfect sense to me. learning about Reimann sums in calc I now
is 9 recurring (in base 10) the largest possible number?
>>7992504
>x is the largest possible number
The only x that can make that meme statement kinda true is the infinity symbol, but even that is just mathematical representation of the existence infinitely larger numbers.
So no. Even if you went 99999... to infinity, infinity would still be larger.
Please, it's useless to ask these questions once you understand what "infinite" means
>>7992504
Anon the only largest possible number is when you get bored of counting or run out of words to describe you numbers with
>>7992504
the largest number is n + 1

He's not as spergy as before which is good.
Has he done anything important yet though?
Is it true that advanced mathematics can only be learned by specific types of people?
I've heard this said a few times that only certain people can learn things like physics due to limits in their own learning capabilities.
Any validity to this?
>>7995117
>specific types of people
Well, there is one word that comes to mind. But that's probably not the answer you're looking for.
>>7995117
Can you figure out Shinichi Mochizuki's proof for abc conjecture?
>>7995117
When it comes to math, there's people who understand it, and those who don't. Can specific people learn it? Well, anyone can learn it. It just takes an elite few to master it or fully comprehend it.
Is it better to do a Ph.D as soon as possible after your undergraduate study, or become financially established and then pursue scholarship afterward? Assuming, of course, that one is capable of either route.
You will probably have no interest or not enough interest in committing to work on your Ph.D. once you become financially established as you see for yourself that work and return a most likely in any way not in a ratio favorably for a Ph.D.
>>7994947
Sure, but I'm considering doing a Ph.D now even though I've already got job offers to make money doing stuff in technology and risk management. So I'm not sure if this applies entirely if I'm already considering more or less the same decision.
>>7994963
Are you serious? There's a huge difference in the position you are in and the one that other guy described
Researchers have found that specially ionized graphene has the highest free energy surface known to man.
They plan to use graphene-lined walls to build bottomless swimming pools as was seen in tommorrowland.
They say the water is so strongly attracted to graphene that not even gravity or the sun can overcome it.
Would you buy a bottomless swimming pool?
>>7994929
you could just use glass like a normal person
>>7994929
>Would you buy a bottomless swimming pool?
>*knock knock*
>Hi, I was wondering if you would be willing to buy a bottomless swimming pool. We've got lots of models in stock.
>Yes, that's the type of pool where there's no bottom floor holding the water up
>Uh, well, it's much more expensive because we have to use specially ionized graphene for the walls
>Hmm, yes, I suppose it is just like a regular swimming pool with a much higher risk of death by fall
>Do you need a pen?
>*slam*
>>7994929
wtf is a free energy surface

If I slam my head against the pavement, will that shift things around a bit in there and I'll wake up with newfound insight and intellect?

Possibly. Although I'm not sure the risk is worth taking, no matter how dumb you are.
>>7994414
You'll just as likely wake up with reduced pre-frontal function, personality change, anger issues, google it it ain't pretty.
Is there a scientific reason why do so many men have chin scars?
Pic related, I couldn't help but notice, that a lot, and I mean a LOT of men have chin scars. Me, my best friend, cousin, also a few classmates etc.
What gives?
People fall on their chins.

I can vouch for this

>>7994107
Every single time. And then when you say climate change instead, they go on about how the government and scientists are conspiring against America
>>7994107
>snows in the winter
>winter, on average is warmer than usual.
>lol dude are you retarded climate change isn't happening. It still gets cold in the winter. You see it's really the government trying to get over on the job creators so that China can get ahead
>also here's that climate gate source which proves scientists are really making it up
>none of your sources matter either
>>7994107
I really don't think this is a conversation that happened. If it is, please reevaluate who you choose to spend time with.
