Mice that get blood transfusions from younger mice become more youthful and live considerably longer.
I am desperately afraid of my own mortality.
Assuming I can get access to information on childrens blood types and I'm able to kidnap them successfully with little risk of being found out (just hypothetically speaking) what are the chances that getting blood transfusions from them and keeping a farm of young blood would actually make me live longer? I've heard that other age regressing drugs cause cancer clusters, would this cause cancer in the long run too?

Women are more emotional than men. Is this statement a scientific fact or just a meme?

It's partially a meme and partially true.

i) Women are more easily overwhelmed by their emotions. They are lacking the higher mental functions to deal with emotional distress appropriately. This is correlated to their inability to hold moral values and their inability to feel empathy.

ii) Their emotions however are more primitive, more animalistic than those of men. They are less differentiated and in general very shallow. See the attached pic for more information. A woman cannot experience the depth and breadth of a male's emotional spectrum. That's why all great artists, poets and writers have been male.

Not that much more. His only worthwhile invention was the polyphase motor, everything else is of limited use.

I'm treated like shit because of the paper I've got stolen 3 months ago. I've exposed the whole college and they didnt even care. But now there is a new congress and nobody even cares about me. You have to have your grades above level 8,5 and I've got 8,6 and your paper has to have as good grades as possible and mine got all 10s. Now, i have no idea how to avoid all those people on college, those science section students that stole my money, meds and souvenirs when i exposed them here for my giving my paper to another student and letting him steal it from me and them regularly stealing from college funds. Or i should apply a new paper, move on from pathology to psychiatry? my ex mentor is fine with me applying an old stolen paper for this congress but my college is not supporting me whatsoever. should i expose now literally the whole college again for them to realize i should not be taken for granted? or i'm an idiot for promoting a stolen paper....sometimes, at night, before panic attacks, i fantasize how the whole college is burning down in ashes together with that complete evil monster witch dean who will fuck you up just because. i'll turn kek into another war but this time war wont be against cnn but all people related to this because i got bashed for working for 4chan so they should all def learn a lesson

Have any of you guys successfully conquered your math learning disability? I really need help.

I've got dyscalculia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyscalculia) and really I'm just looking for coping tactics.

I'm about to start college and because of this, I wasn't able to pursue any of my dream majors (____ engineering/science) and even had to sign up for "Intermediate Math" (aka algebra II in college for shortbus people like me), and even then I barely passed algebra II to begin with. And that was in Junior year, 3 years ago (I fell for the gap year meme too)

Going down the Wikipedia symptom list, the following absolutely (and most pertinently) apply to me:
>Inconsistent results in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
>When writing, reading and recalling numbers, mistakes may occur in the areas such as: number additions, substitutions, transpositions, omissions, and reversals.
>Poor memory (retention & retrieval) of math concepts; may be able to perform math operations one day, but draw a blank the next. May be able to do book work but then fails tests.
>Difficulty with multiplication, subtraction, addition, and division tables, mental arithmetic, etc.
>Inability to grasp and remember mathematical concepts, rules, formulae, and sequences.

and then there's the litany of other not-quite-math related symptoms that accompany it that I also have:
>>Difficulty reading analog clocks
>Difficulty reading musical notation. (I'm an excellent musician but I've never been able to even begin to comprehend written music)
>Having particular difficulty mentally estimating the measurement of an object or distance (e.g., whether something is 3 or 6 meters (10 or 20 feet) away).
>Problems with differentiating between left and right.
>>
something that's always bothered me about math (specifically algebra) is the abstractness of it all

for example, I've learned how to factor polynomials, but why? For what purpose? What does it achieve? What function does it provide, what applications can it be used for?

this is why I like computer science, it's all obvious what everything's for and it's all applied mathematics

but when I learn for-rote all the algebra, it's much harder to make any sense of it
>>
>>9027484
Once you finish your first year of university it should all make sense, assuming you have finished calculus 1 and 2 and an introductory physics course.

Just rote your way through it, work your ass off, then you'll "get" it. It's not that hard dude, spend like 2-3 hours a day and you'll do fine.

Is Earth a naturally occurring perpetual energy generator /sci/?

My understanding is that the pressure of roughly six sextillion tons of rock and metal being compressed into a spheroid by gravity generates immense amounts of heat. Heat which can be harnessed by Humans which is utilized to boil water, which creates steam, which turns turbines.

With that said, can this source of power be exhausted?

Are there any other factors that majorly contribute to, or are vital to the existence of our planet's geothermal activity?
