if you're going to be autistic just take it out of the plastic and spare us your asinine musings.

First step: take it out of its plastic container.
Second step: cut it to reduce its width
Third step: heat it up in the oven (not microwave)
Fourth step: enjoy a healthier *and* better tasting meal

no

I leave the rest as an exercise to the reader.

Whoops, forgot to change the sign for when I added I to both sides. But the point still stands.

>but should I have written there doesn't exist an X?
yes, A-I =A is the contradiction you got by assuming it does exist

>>9069849
>>9069855

God, I say this but then looking at the equation it's pretty obvious that the trivial solution exists at least, where A ultimately equals -I and X is the zero matrix.

What the fuck is wrong with my math.

>“Agents will drift off understandable language and invent codewords for themselves,” says Batra, speaking to a now-predictable phenomenon that’s been observed again, and again, and again. “Like if I say ‘the’ five times, you interpret that to mean I want five copies of this item. This isn’t so different from the way communities of humans create shorthands.”

>Indeed. Humans have developed unique dialects for everything from trading pork bellies on the floor of the Mercantile Exchange to hunting down terrorists as Seal Team Six–simply because humans sometimes perform better by not abiding to normal language conventions.

>So should we let our software do the same thing? Should we allow AI to evolve its dialects for specific tasks that involve speaking to other AIs? To essentially gossip out of our earshot? Maybe; it offers us the possibility of a more interoperable world, a more perfect place where iPhones talk to refrigerators that talk to your car without a second thought.

>The tradeoff is that we, as humanity, would have no clue what those machines were actually saying to one another.

>Facebook ultimately opted to require its negotiation bots to speak in plain old English. “Our interest was having bots who could talk to people,” says Mike Lewis, research scientist at FAIR. Facebook isn’t alone in that perspective. When I inquired to Microsoft about computer-to-computer languages, a spokesperson clarified that Microsoft was more interested in human-to-computer speech. Meanwhile, Google, Amazon, and Apple are all also focusing incredible energies on developing conversational personalities for human consumption. They’re the next wave of user interface, like the mouse and keyboard for the AI era.

pharmokinetics: lets take animals, or better yet, people, and hit them with various substances and have your drone interns measure all sorts of shit about the person/ animal, while you sit in your office dreaming up what kind of shit we should subject living creatures to next - for science.

Did you know that DMT can be administered to someone who is very near death, and that this will significantly extend the window of time in which a clinically dead person can be resuscitated, by almost 50%? meaning, if a person dies in an ambulance or on an operating table, using DMT, resuscitation may be possible for seven and a half minutes after clinical death, rather than five minutes.

when DMT enters the blood stream and reaches the brain, it is absorbed in the exact same way that glucose and amino acids are. the brain does not have a mechanism that will reject DMT through down-regulation of enzymes such as it would during cocaine, alcohol, or marijuana intoxication. DMT is one of the few endogenous means of directly stimulatin sigma-1 receptors, which protect neurons from oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is one of the primary factors in brain death as well as coma or brain damage in the event of resuscitation.

DMT for CPR

Any trap is 100% gay due to the presence of a penis.

I think you also need to find the ratio of clitoris to female volume for comparison.

First thing you need to do is define the measurement Gay, what is gay?

So in hypothesis,

Among schizophreniacs, there are lot more smokers than in normal population, it's not scientific, but let's say smoking causes cancer, which is random unwanted cell proliferation.

DMT as Sigma-2 or maybe even 1 receptor agonist, is causing that proliferation to cease.

Cancer is much more wrong, people get psychotic from carcinogens(they cause cell proliferation, which is related with substances causing psychosis i.e. PCP psychosis(which cause schyzophrenia) is reversed by agonizing Sigma-2 receptor)...


So I could easily, but not much scientificaly conclude, that carcinogens cause psychotic behaviour, and DMT can cure psychotic behaviour and also cancer.

Where I am wrong?

Deutsch et al 1988 The Sigma Receptor: A Novel Site Implicated in Psychosis and Antipsychotic Drug Efficacy.

Im confused by what you're asserting. I figure you're the schizophrenic guy from that other thread where the other anon was helping?
Schizophrenic individuals do tend to smoke more, but what does cancer have to do with psychosis? Cancer patients don't have higher levels of skitzotypical or psychotic behavior. also carcinogens don't necessarily cause cell proliferation, some just damage DNA, mitogenic factors cause cell proliferation. Often times carcinogens mutate DNA in ways that increase mitogenic factors (like bcl-abl fusion gene), but they dont cause psychosis. the PCP example is not the same as the cancer example.
It's possible sure, but i dont think DMT is going to ever be used as an anticancer drug, if that's what you're asking. Anti-psychotic maybe

I want you to pretend there is a glory hole.
A glory hole in whore city.
I want you to pretend that whore city is full of only men.
The rest are QT trap waifus.
They only use that ONE glory hole.
If you took the sum-total of them and multiplied them by the reproductive rate of a rabbit you would only reach the surface quantity of a theoretical manifold crystal of Nth size made up of infinitesimal small spheroids, these spheroids represent fucks.

That is how fucked we are.

Biology is a very complex science. Modern biology is a very very young science (not even 50 years), we don't fully understand. There are no law in biology (like in physics) that says you do this and you obtain this.

Each time a cell divides, the telomeres get shorter. When they get too short, the cell can no longer divide; it becomes inactive or "senescent" or it dies. This shortening process is associated with aging.

BUT

It's not the only process associated with aging.

Doing my Master's on AE with a focus on structures, and my research is in structural/acoustic interaction. It's pretty fun, since I've always had an interest in the field since I was a kid.

Don't do math or physics unless you like being homeless

I did a PhD in Physics, specialised in Solid State Physics.

Job market imploded but it was good while I did my post docs. You just have to expect very little money but I got to work in Japan.

I went to industry for a few years and now I am a patent attorney. And I plan to remain that until I retire. This profession is quite good and we (and our colleagues) are looking for people with a good background in Physics, preferably with 5+ years in industry.

I definitely recommend this route.

>>9069326

What do patent attorneys do?

Do you need additional schooling to become one?

no, since monkeys also have HIV. also, it literally came from them

I dunno OP I only bang my wife and still got AIDS, also our child is black I wonder what that's about

The day you can legitimately launch a rocket, land the rocket, fill the rocket with gas and launch it again basically anybody will be able to throw anything they want in space. A job that used to cost $90 million could now be done for $200,000.

That day might arrive during the 2020s, there are two different billion dollar rocketry companies in singleminded pursuit of it.

East Asia was always rather developed technologically. Japan was just particularly undeveloped because of their strict isolationist policies. China specifically has always been country of science and technology. China was ahead of Europe in a lot of things even as recently as the 1600s, when the "great divergence" began.

At that time China and the rest of the East got swiftly overtaken by European technology because of the extreme speed of the Industrial Revolution and the time it took for information to spread. The exact reasons for the Great Divergence are a subject of some debate, and it's a rather complicated issue.

>>9068344
To be clear, the divergence started well before the industrial revolution but that was what made the differences balloon so much

The development of science seems greatly influenced by the political systems in which science is generated. For a comparative study of Western, Islamic and Chinese science, and how politics was either a contribution or a detriment to their development, read pic related.
