Why do we desire affection? How do I eliminate the desire and the care for other people

what phedopile cartoon is that?
>>8168582
A funny man.
All conjecture, important because he brought kids and childhood into the picture.
>>8168571
he's a good litmus test on who knows what modern psychology is and who has no clue
there can never, nor will there ever be, time travel... sorry future Marty McFly's! The only time travel that can exist is in the movies and in your imagination and memberies.

Take it to facebook you pop-sci moron
Preaching to the choir...
Have you ever worked out the solutions of a 4th degree polynomial using the quartic formula? By hand, not coding it into a computer.
If not, why don't you do it right now?
>>8168547
>why don't you do it right now?
Because it would offer zero enlightenment to do so.
>>8168554
It's good algebra practice and you can say you did it.
looks too hard
I'll try to make this quick.
I'm 21 years old. I joined the military after high school and got out recently. I'm going to be starting school in the fall and I need to take Calculus to transfer to the program I want. The highest math I took in high school was Precalculus, which I barely learned because I was a depressive shitter. That was almost three years ago and I haven't really been in a classroom setting since.
I do not consider myself a prodigy or any other sort of genius.
How can I make sure that I don't fail this class? How...

>this math review
totally doable
I hear the format of Kahn has changed recently in ways that people don't appreciate.
www.patrickjmt.com has a lot of videos on the same pre-calc/calc topics
or you could go to bookzz.org and download a couple textbooks after simple keyword search
>>8168467
Your military discipline will get you through ez.
All Calc classes hold your hand with review stuff that you'll need.
Trying to learn yourself will most likely discourage you.
If you want to review, look up formulas about lines, circles, parabolas, etc. And understand why they look the way they do. You can also ll read up about exponents, natural logs, and trig if you want to. Trig won't be important until Calc 2 and 3 though.
I assuming you are a CC student now, how exactly are you able to go directly into Calc 1? I thought all CC's make you take a math placement test. If so, you wont need worry about review because youll be placed in the appropriate math. Anything lower than trig/precal is a huge waste of time, since precal is essentially a very large fast paced review of algebra.
If you had the opportunity to be the first person to set foot on another planet, would you do it? The only downside is: it's a one-way trip. Your chances of ever seeing Earth again are slim.
yes but only if i get to bring my favorite snacks, I want to eat some good stuff before i die
>>8168434
>the first person
>one-way trip
Fuck no. I need several thousand colonizers for any chance of survival if I'm staying there for the rest of my life. And what are the chances I'd be the first to step off a goddamn colony ship?
I want to be the first to set foot on Venus.
One way trip, eternal fame, you know nobody else is gonna bother so you'll have an entire planet as your tomb. Mars's boring, we'll get there eventually.
What's the most plausible explanation for high estrogen levels correlating with decreased higher mental capacities and increased "dark triad" traits?

The more times you make the same thread, the better forechinner you are.

Xenohormones, Niccolo Machiavelli was a transgender.
>>8168285
Psychology is a fake science, correlation is not causation, and OP is a faggot.
As you see in the pic attached im trying to make a edged blade, but I want the downwards slant to go down the curved highlited blue region insted of right angle you see at the end.
How do I go about doing this?
>>8168189
He's a real life example of what im trying to make. See how the end curves down into the edge insted of the right angle edge I have in op pic.

/sci/ons, I majored in the humanities and lately I'm getting extremely interested in statistics.
Do you guys have any recommendations on a good textbook to start from? Any online resources to use (khanacademy is not doing it for me, everything is too basic). I'd like something like the Yale Courses you can find on YouTube, where you can watch whole classes of undergrad courses.
>>8168125
Foundations of Probability by Kallenberg is a pretty accessible introduction.
>>8168125
If you want some thing new, look up some undergrad syllabi, they usually contain a text book. I wouldn't recommend that though. Try some used book stores in your area. I went to a dollar book store in LA and found a classical physics book from the 50s that was virtually identical to the one I was assigned.
How do you guys define life? What constitutes "being alive"?
>>8168119
Are you looking for a biological definition or is this some dumb attempt at a shitty philosophy thread?
>>8168119
"Science & Math", nothing about philosophy.
>>8168299
>shitty philosophy thread
Your bias is showing.
Redpill me on science.
Question everything.
>>8167983
Even question "questioning everything."
>>8167976
>redpill
You don't deserve shit.
Kill yourself.
Did my calc teacher a sign a good textbook or is he a meme?
>needing a teacher for calculus
lol americans....

I don`t know if I'm vulnerable to laugh now, or is this the Strayan hour?
ids breety gud.
i like books that walk me through every single step because i am a brainlet.
the only thing bad about this book is that sometimes the questions are fairly long.
Help /sci/ I took this test and I'm not sure if I'm autistic or not. What does this mean?
https://psychology-tools.com/autism-spectrum-quotient/
>>8167906
>indicates significant autistic traits
you have oddtism
>>8167906
You're some form of ASD, probably, go get a formal diagnosis for the real talk.
>>8167906
Frankly, you'd have to be autistic to work through one of these tests.
>Calls himself a skeptic
>Blindly accepts everything he learned in school about science
Explain yourself
Take your pedophile cartoons back to >>>/a/.
i discovered science and people stole it from me!!!
>>8167886
That's what proofs and research is for anon. Shame you're just brain dead sitting in lecture and don't do further research on topics to understand why they are accepted.
When am I ever going to use math in my life? Why does nobody ever want to answer this question for me?
When you get a real degree
>>8167823
Fuck off.
Do you ever sleep?

OP here, pic related is probably the only time I ever saw math being used in real life.
