Sex robots and gravitational waves don't actively mutate constantly.

Common cold is a feature not a bug.

Because there are hundreds, possibly thousands of different viruses capable of causing the common cold. What are you going to do, replace your throat with metal so it can't be infected by anything?

I don't know. My country offers scholarships to damn near everyone and the quality of the education is about as shitty as it gets. Because apparently the way to create domestic advanced industries is to increase the number of STEM graduates by letting standards fall through the floor. I literally knew a guy who was in 2nd year mech E and didn't have a clue what a fucking cosine is. Just some shit to plug and chug.

Rich daddy shouldn't be a factor if it comes to education. The same amount of applicant will get in, nothing's gonna be watered down, and those smart enough to get into top tier schools but poor families will not have to settle for cheaper/free options. If anything, quality of students would improve if tuition wasn't a thing.

Colleges are expensive but we can't pay for them by taxing the wealthy (jerb creators) because then the wealthy won't have the money to create jobs and anyway why should anyone who isn't interested in going to college be paying for other people's kids to go? That ain't American, friend.

Does anybody give a fuck? Does anybody even give a SHIT?

Do you have the phenotype Ashkenazi women crave?

Weigh them too see if any is escaping, or if it's just more dense now.

>great scores in physics, and math. I realy like those subject and I want to work in an engineering field.
why not physics or math?

Because autists are attracted to childish interests such as planes/trains

If you can't prove anything, you can't prove the "you can't prove anything" statement.
If you can prove it, then you can prove some things, so the statement is wrong.

punch them in the face then remind them they cant prove you punched them in the face

Yeah its a good book but what reasons do you have to call it the best book ever?

>>9077389
It really varies by scientist and philosopher. Just think of how it's hard to read academic papers even in your field of study- You can get the gist at first, but you really need to dig deep, discuss, and think about the details to grasp it, and it is the same way for any philosophy. You can bet that huge tomes take years to fully digest. This is true regardless of intelligence; it just is a matter of how much you can extrapolate and really deeply understand at the end of the process.

>>9077397
But in mathematics there are the axioms of set theory and rules follow very logically.
I'm not thrown into ODEs without the having learnt Analysis.
What I do now when I read philosophy is trying to make sense of the point of view of the author, compare it to my point of view, and do all of this in the most conservative way i.e. arranging thoughts as to leave the minimum room for misunderstandings and mistakes.
I cannot be analytical like in mathematics.

people just got bored, is all

God is unfalsifiable. Thomas Aquinas's 5 ways do not prove anything other than that something was first, which is really a no brainer anyway.

>>9076886
But the first thing must, by definition, be supernatural. That has no bearing on whether it is a personal God or not, just that it scientifically superseded nature as we know it. Thus supernatural in the most technical sense.

And I'm more talking about science-minded people and their refusal to admit anything might even possibly be be metaphysics

Because the average girl is dumb as a box of rocks, boring, and doesn't care about anything beyond the newest Rihanna album.

>>9076214
This.
After a while it gets boring for someone intelligent to be around someone stupid, who cannot discuss abstract themes.

I find all of my classmates boring unless they're into video-games or science and math.

I am going to talk from the side of male homosexuals, though parallels for female homosexuals can be made:

The thing is that women are pieces of shit. They are entitled bitches and many men simply do not want to deal with that crap. This combined with the fact that we can literally have orgasms from being anally pleasured by cocks created the first rounds of homosexuals: Men who wanted sex with other men.

This first generation of homosexuals is actually present all throughout history. However back then it was not seen as an identity. It was basically a top tier fetish because of how niche it was back then, like MLP porn today.

The second wave of homosexuality starts with the gay rights movement. As women keep being fucking disgusting sluts men decided: Hey, why should I keep this a simple fetish? I like John, why can't I marry him and get the marriage tax cuts while living a happy life? This is bullshit. Lets campaign!

And that is a totally noble cause in my opinion. Marriage tax cuts should be for anyone. No one should be forced to put up with fucking women for tax cuts. Heck if anything they should give tax cuts for how many women you have killed because one less cunt in the world makes it better for everyone, but I digress.

The problem with this generation of vocal homosexuals was that it put them in the news and in TV. Because of this impressionable teens (who perhaps were into homosexuality as a fetish already) saw their homosexuality now as a political identity and after a couple of generations it became an actual personal identity. Now you have 12 year old kids who have never been inside a pussy but have had cocks up their ass who say that they are absolutely gay. Why? Because being gay is even trendy now. We hear about it all the time. How everyone "cool" has a gay friends and how gay friends are the best and shit.

It is pretty gay if you ask me.

>>9076028
Yeah, very nice. Now please answer the actual question.

>>9076076
I just did though. The origin of homosexuality was that women are fucking cunts.

bump i'm curious

you can't repair the damage
better luck in the next life

UC irvine here

Spent a week over at UCSB(specifically, del playa in IV) and I don't understand how you can focus with all the parties, liter, homeless people everywhere. And there's 0 fucking parking, fuck that place. It's lots of fun though when you do wanna party.

No, he has a point. It is odd that millions of people adopted the religion of their captors.

>work, energy, interest, and time. why is it so offputting to see it get so abstract?

Since when are work, energy and interest abstract?
What do you consider real?

>>9081914
that's not what i meant. i meant that having a geometric form to something that isn't related to occupying space.

saying you have a box that is 10x10x10 in centimeters makes sense. you can have area on the surface, makes sense. but when you start having curves that represents the change of something, then say what the total amount is through area, then some other quantity with volume, what are you looking at? what is this hulk of geometry? you are talking about the parts but what is the sum of the parts? there's no meaning outside this particular interval for a function because that's not what you're looking for, but that's not really an intuitive understanding that's rationalism.

Literally everything is geometry, you brainlet. Geometry is the soul of mathematics.
