What are the chances that a molecule that doesn't naturally occur in our bodies or anywhere else in nature just happens to be a perfect agonist to specific receptors to trigger a chain of events in your brain that unlock god mode?

To me, time does not exist. Time is a way we document change and aid in organization and planning. To me infinite time and existing outside of time is the same thing. What do you understand of it?

>>9107535

You are correct. Time does not exist, it is merely a rate of change and the magnitude of that change. Every single thing we observe tells us this is the case.

This unfortunately means that the universe is holographic, but that is a much better outcome than heat death or the psychosis that big bang believes have.
>>
what a fucking stupid thought.

if time did not exist, neither would anything

it doesnt matter how hard you pseud, or squeeze your brainlet neurons, thoughts such as this are batshit insane, more useless than a schizophrenic episode, lacking any relation to reality.

TIME IS CHANGE.

The concept you propose "does not exist" is a concept YOU made up from watching too many cartoons.

Can anyone crack this code?

Objnofn fh jz jiz fia

Apparently its using some of the most common codes and part of it is backwards.

But i cant crack it for the life of me. It probably has some shift cipher in it. idk

What's the best way to ask a PI if I can help out with research in their lab? I just graduated in May and stupid as fuck me thought "Nah I don't want to go to grad school immediately all of the Ph.D. students in my lab seem like they're held together by a string I wanna just do research assistant stuff for another year" without realizing how difficult it would be to find people willing to pay me or even put up with me for shit that undergraduates at their universities are begging to do

My emails keep getting nice but still disappointing responses, is there something I'm doing wrong?

Sorry for not posting on /adv/ but I somehow feel like I'd have better luck with an answer here

are you asking how to go about being a researcher without being either an enrolled grad/undergrad student or a post-doc/PhD?
because if so what the fuck is wrong with you
>>
>>9107821
I mean in my undergraduate lab my professor talked about getting emails from people like this all the time and was fine with them coming in for a summer so long as they didn't expect to get an easy pass into a PhD under her as a result.

I figured since I graduated very recently and have research experience it wouldn't be so outlandish.

>Copenhagen interpretation
>(Everett) Many-worlds interpretation

Which one is right?

I want to believe it's the many worlds interpretation...
But logic tells me that's impossible (rendering superstring theory also false).

But, I'm just an engineer, I don't want to make any assumptions.

What does /sci/ think?

>Solved in under 5 seconds
What? I think you mean "solved almost instantly". There are no carries involved. It's simple manipulation via a mental table.

I am conflicted about common core and do not know much about it. At once they seem to be attempting to teach ways of intuitively solving problems by taking it out of the conscious frame and having the subconscious do the bulk of the work, by reducing a problem to more simple parts, or more efficiently batch operations together. And at the same time they're selectively crippling the mind with poorly designed low level machinery they no doubt intend to layer other junk on which necessitate yet more junk approaches to problem solving and reasoning as a whole.

Eg you should be teaching techniques like for:
88 + 97 +14
to process it as:
85 + 100 + 14

Or recognize patterns and relationships between numbers, like:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5..... + 98 + 99 = ?
This can be solved instantly, 4950. 1 + 99 = 100. 2 + 98 = 100....
100 * 49 + 50 = 4950.

Etc. In the picture posted, "Jack" should have done any of those steps. He should have used the place value system for its intended purpose and gone through each digit serially. I have my doubts that this is a good way to teach kids the relationships between numbers. I'm not even a mathematician, my knowledge of mathematics is a patchwork mess that probably shakes out to a 6th grade level. But when I see 8 + 7, I "feel" 15. 6 and 7? 6 is composed of 3 and 3. 7 is ten lacking 3. 13 is therefore felt, and that forms the underlying foundation for higher arithmetic calculation.

I also like that trick with multiplication by 5. Add a zero, then in mind divide into a set of even numbers, divide each by 2. Almost instantaneous result, with working memory (or visual buffer) being the only tool required.

Is there an evolutionary reason why another person's tongue feels so good against our genitals?

Whats the explanation, from a scientific standpoint, of the massive differences in penis sizes across different races? Why some races have big penises and some super small penises?

What did evolution mean by this? What benefit would suppose having a small penis so evolution goes towards that?
