Give me your thoughts on how it co uld become possible
Well, it depends what kind of teleportation, if it's transporter to transporter it's relatively easy. You vaporise the guy transmit his make up at the speed of light and 3d print him at the other side.
Transporter to anywhere else you need to break a few laws.

If we somehow could ignore physics we could build you a teleporting device and you could teleport from glory hole to glory hole and get all that dick you crave, OP
I mean like fast travel in games
Is sociology a science? Be honest /sci/
Social science sure.
As far as I know sociology is just psychology on a large scale.
>>7653546
No because it lacks a predictive aspect in a quantitative sense. Chemists and physicists can predict outcomes down to multiple decimal points.
Sociologists cannot accurately predict outcomes due to there being to many extraneous factors involved. They should be treated the same as the tarot card readers and astrologers.

I thought that Euler can't help. phi(375) = 200

Imagine you are taking this photo. After you do it, you look to the landscape. How would you see it if we saw in 3D?
>>7653502
You do see in 3d. You have two inputs, one from each eye. The brain isn't a rasterizer, it doesn't blend into a flat image. All the preprocessing it does includes that depth information that's an inherent consequence of binocular vision.
Is anyone else having trouble with these picture captchas? Do I really have to give it the right answer 3-10 times every single post?
>>7653517
You do not see in 3d.

So is this where EEs, or at least people who aren't dumb like me when it comes to circuits, hang out?
Because I have this problem: I have two loads, both about 50 Ohm, and I want the sum of power on both to be roughly constant (about 0.5 W -- sourced from a programmable PSU). I want to be able to change the relative distribution of the power across these two loads reasonably quickly -- within 1 ms.
How do I do this? Plus I need to control it via a PC (i.e., the distribution changes and is not know a priori), so something Arduino (or mcu in general) - based...

oh, ignore that 5 V on the PSU, that's just the drawing program being dumb

Why should we invest so much resources, time and energy on the well being of animals when there are humans in much more dire states. Shouldn't humans be first priority /sci/?

The NOAA/Zeke are using ridiculous TOB adjustments which yield physically impossible results for the more distant past. See pic for an example of actually deleting the data with bad TOB (reset in afternoon); the correct approach to dealing with data errors, you remove them. The rate of warming is miniscule. (Do you seriously think that in 1930, Sally Brown and her other urbanites always reset their thermometer right before the hottest...

Zeke and company rely on general definitions of rural and urban areas instead of looking at the actual conditions (micro-environments) of the temperature stations. The latter is what really counts. If the station is close to an air conditioner belching out hot air, it doesn't matter if the station is supposedly a "rural" station. Accounting for micro-environments is what a "good scientist" would do. See pic....

Why does orange make me want to kill myself? Or pretty much anything from the 90s?
>>7653303
Orange is from the nineties?
I thought it was invented by the Irish in the 16th century.
>>7653308
Pretty sure nature invented it much earlier.
And the universe itself a lot earlier.
>>7653308
No I meant these as fairly seperate questions, Orange was just used a lot in the nineties. The point was if anyone has ideas as to why random things like that would trigger a sort of sadness with no real reason why.
So I'm going through my Biology textbook, we're currently doing animals. This isn't even something I'm supposed to answer, but it bugged me when I read it and didn't understand it.
The question is: "Under which conditions would you expect a bilaterally symmetrical animal not to exhibit cephalization and why?"
Even though it's not something my class is even supposed to do, it's confusing me because I always thought bilateral symmetry gave rise to cephalization. I didn't realize there was any bilaterally symmetrical...

who do you think is programming the computers?

Creating software for symbolic math is a pretty small niche

Because part of understanding how to develop efficient logic is understanding what makes a solution process inefficient in the first place.

What would happen if you tried disposing of Radiactive Wast by throwing it into a volcano? Why don't we just throw all our trash in volcanoes
Here is the average amount of trash piling per month in one mid-sized district. multiply this with about 300-500 for the monthly trash of just one city. Now add transportation costs to carry all these to the nearest volcano.
Also, volcanos do not disintegrate trash into the atoms and erase them out of existence. They produce leave a liquid black unburnable residude and toxic fumes by burning plastic and all other synthetic material, which spreads into the air we breathe. Doing this every month is highly pointless and expensive.
>>7653256
Because you want the radioactive waste to be in a location with stable geology, not one that is liable to spew radioactive gases into the atmosphere at the drop of a dime.

Find your class. Watch the vids at your own pace. The professors at MIT are light years ahead of your shitty dead end associate professor.
Read the book, teach yourself.
you have to believe firmly that most of your profs are not there because they're good teachers, lecturers, educators, people...they generate money and publicity for your school. when i was in uni i would go to class for a week or two and see if i vibed with the prof, then skip class the rest of the quarter and teach myself the material.
