From Sam Harris to Christopher Hitchens, every single person who has the freedom to speak their minds deeply hates SJW. But it's only a big deal if you make it so. Being offended doesn't give people rights, so all you have to do is ignore them.
You seem pretty unsupportive of privilege checking anon. Would you like to make a public apology ?

Fine by me, I'd rather be jacked, handsome, and of good intelligence than an ugly sperg manlet.
I somewhat get the gist of:
1. You take a base case and prove that what you try to claim holds for this base case (usually index 1)
2. In the induction step you use a hypothesis as premise (that your claim holds for n)
3. You prove that it also holds for n+1 and therefore for all numbers
But I don't get...
a) the logic behind "let's just assume it counts for all numbers till an arbitrarily chosen index n" and if the claim holds there, it therefore must be true for all numbers following after that.
If I take a sample of 1 to n...

You prove it's true for 1. You also proved that if it's true for n, it's true for n+1. Therefore it is true for 2. By the same reasoning, it is true for 3. Etc.

So we're supposed to believe we evolved from pic related in just a couple of million years of random mutations? What

Should /sci/ be split?
/life sciences/ --- biology, neuroscience, genetics, biochemistry, zoology, ecology, botany, medicine, pharmacology, veterinary, etc.
/physical and formal sciences/ --- mathematics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, etc.
Basically, one board for
science that revolves around mathematics and one for science that doesn't use mathematics so extensively.
We already have /his/ for history, but I also propose we broaden it to /social sciences/ so it becomes about anthropology, archaeology, economics, geography, history,...

No that's fucking retarded this board is already dead enough as is. If you 9000 boards go back to that shithole 8gag.
m8. the actual population who wants to discuss science is around %10. If you divide that up, the boards will be completely overriden by memesters due to their higher numbers.
Can someone explain this Nasa report to me?
http://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/nasa-study-mass-gains-of-antarctic-ice-sheet-greater-than-losses
For those who are too lazy to click on the link, Nasa is basically saying that the mass gain of antarctic ice sheet is greater than the loss
Does this disprove the climate change?
>>7840707
For it to disprove anything there would have to be valid assertions in the first place.
>>7840712
But it already disproved the report for IPCC about climate change
It actually proves climate change. It means the climate is changing for the better :^)
Is there any truth in this, friends?
I've seen it floating around.
It's incomplete. He said :
> If the bee disappears from the surface of the earth, man would have no more than four years to live without honey.
Pollination by insects is necessary for many plants that we grow. If pollenizers were to disapear, expect major famine all over the world.
>>7840639
Another proof for God and his precise balance. It would be an astronomical chance for evolution to "create" bees that pollunate which happens to be a vital necessity for life to grow.
Thank you God.
Is he right? And why?
> physics is easy
> sociology is hard
Didn't expect much from a rapist anyway.
>>7840577
his sentiment is more or less true (humans are hard to predict) but the way he phrased it is pretty shit
>>7840577
He is not right. Because sociology is a pseudo-science.
Hi everybody. I am interesting in teaching myself various areas of science related subjects and now wish to delve into a more sort of hands-on experience.
I have been searching around for kind of adult-orientated chemistry kits, electronics/circuits kits, etc. - anything practical so I can view things in a way that textbooks can't help with
Obviously, most things on the market are quite simple and intended for kids so I was wondering what you all may have found to be helpful in the past or even currently. price is not an issue.
Thanks so much in advance
>>7840446
You're right, yeah.
I am currently looking at rasp pi and arduino sets. raspberry pi seems to have more of a noob friendly community so i may go with that first.
thanks man
Hey /sci/, if you take a sequence of functions such as
[math]f_n(t) = a_n cos(n.t) + b_n sin(n.t)[/math] such as f_n tend to the zero function, show that a_n and b_n tend to 0
>>7840368
That's not homework.
Just interested on how you do it.
ITT I will try to solve (and in fact solve) all the Millennium Prize Problems one by one. I will do so by a new proof technique that has been proved to be quite powerful. It combined homothopy theory with algebraic geometry. Having said that, the proof technique itself is elementary though. So, let's go ahead.
1. [math] \displaystyle P=NP [/math]
By definition, polynomila algorithms admit decomposition in chains of smaller polynomial algorithms. Consequently, polynomial time algorithms do not solve problems where blocks, whoose order is the same as the underlying problem, require simultaneous resolution. Thus, in fact [math] \displaystyle P \neq NP [/math]
2. Hodge conjecture
Assuming that if a compact Kähler mainfold is complex-analytically rigid, the area-minimizing subvarieties approach complex analytic subvarieties. The set of singularities of an area-minimizng flux is zero in measure. The rest it left to the reader as an easy routine excersize.
3. Riemann hypothesis
This is a simple experimental fact. [math] \displaystyle 10^{13} [/math] roots of the Riemann hypothesis have been already tested and it suffices for all practical applications. In fact, one state a suitable statistical hypothesis and check it on the sample of, say, [math] \displaystyle 10^5 [/math] roots.
4. Yang–Mills existence and mass gap
Well, discrete infinite bosonic energy-mass spectrum of gauge bosons under Gelfand nuclear triples admits non-perturbative quantization of Yang-Mills fields whence the gauge-invariant quantum spectrum is bounded below. A particular consequence is the existence of the mass gap.
5. Navier–Stokes existence and smoothness
(To be continued)
>>7840297
(Cont.)
I haven't worked this one in such detail, but observing that
[math] \displaystyle \| L (u, v) \| ^ 2 = \sum_{n \ge 25} u ^ 2_ {2n} v ^ 2_ {2n +1} / n ^ 2 \le C\|(u_n/\sqrt n)\|_4^2 \|(v_n/\sqrt n)\|_4^2 \le C\|(u_n/\sqrt n)\|_2^2 \|(v_n/\sqrt n)\|_2^2 = C \left (\sum u ^ 2_ {n} / n \right) \left (\sum v ^ 2_ {n} / n \right) [/math]
one can easily find at leat one closed-form solution applying the bubble integral. In the equation, [math] \displaystyle L [/math] is a bilinear operator.

>Where should I best publish it?
So why haven't we built one as close to working as we can get it with today's technology?
>>7840212
Because we can't get anywhere even remotely close with today's technology.
And if we could, it wouldn't be worth the dev costs.
>>7840217
I'm sure the military has at least tried to build something close to it
Assuming one wanted to become an indie game developer, what language would one need to become proficient in?
>>7840003
Whichever language gets you the most soup at the homeless shelter.
>>7840019
Not as a career but as a side project.
>>7840003
It depends entirely on what platform you want to develop for. If it's Reskinned Breakout Clone #675634886578 for the play store than learn Java and how to work with the ADK. If it's Walking Simulator: The Reckoning (now on Steam greenlight!!1!!!11!) then learn C++ and how to work with Unity.

It's funny how a $5 computer can beat the world champion in chess with 100% consistency and people still take it seriously.
>>7839994
Chess has no longer become a game of creativity or imagination, but just a game of computation. It's a sad state of affairs desu.
That's why the Go scene has been growing, but a computer defeated a professional (2 Dan, I believe) player and also other Go AIs with perfect consistency, so yeah, board games are doomed in a way. When the game is created and nobody knows shit it's actually nice, but then it becomes over explored and all that is left is computing power and minimal lateral thinking to decide who is the better player.
>>7839994
>a $5 computer can beat the world champion
Yes, and a car is faster than Usain Bolt. Competitive chess isn't a scientific or academic exercise where you're publishing papers about game theory and perfect play. It's a sport played against other humans where things like preparation, endurance and the ability to pick the right moves under time pressure matter.
What is the densest non-toxic, easily accessible, inexpensive liquid available?
bolt obviously

according to research done by the university of pittsburg, it is bolt
