Matlab will be one of the most useful languages for you.

>>8942757
Yeah, being an engineer and not knowing matlab is like a mute trying not knowing sign language or a retard not knowing how to scream and casually molest people.

>>8942703
They're memeing you, only EEs use Matlab. Most employers are too cheap to pay for Matlab licenses, and will just tell you to use Excel or Python or something

You're used to shitting after drinking coffee, so your body knows it's about time to shit when you smell it.
It's more of a mental thing than anything else.

>tfw i drink 2 mugs of coffee in a week to stay regular

I have my poop timing down to a science. If it is 6:30EDT then you know I'm home pooping.

>>8942655
This.

I drink 2-4 cups of coffee a day. Is this detrimental to my dookies?

Then all of the sudden, I'm buried under a couple miles of lava.

So I was like, "Whatever. Lava sucks but it's not the end of the world."

Then along comes this asshole 'Al Gorgonopsian" talking about "carbon dioxide" and "methane hydrates" and this and that, and that's when things started getting weird.

What's the logic?
'Feels like it's true' isn't good enough, btw

>>8942533
It goes +y +x +0 +x in a sequence
Y-2 x-4 for next step

>>8942199
a computer rendering can put stuff into orbit.

Thats how advanced Boeing is you stupid SpaceX shill

>a 3,000 lbs payload (one American)
Equivalent to two europeans btw.

well you can pull the 0.5 out

>>8942146
Let me go try it. I'll see if I can get you an answer.

>>8942146
there's website called integral calculator which shows al steps. google it

If wellness is buying all the Quinoa from South American countries. So they starve while some middle class moms have something to feel good about then I'm all for vegan wellness I guess.

from a "muh animals" standpoint, its bupkiss. more animals are killed in harvesting machinery and by the act of planting than in slaughter houses by an order of magnitude. economically viable agriculture is intrinsically disruptive to the ecosystem.

from a health standpoint he is right-ish. western society does eat way more animal products than are necessary for proper nutrition. cutting it out of your diet will generally help you out.

an existential crisis is not neccessarily something one would evlove to have more of a byproduct of an advanced brain capable of recognizing its enviroment

You seem to be implicitly assuming that we evolved to feel existential crises. I'd imagine that in fact they're simple a side-effect of increased intelligence. You'd probably find that humans of low intelligence don't even experience existential crises.

>why didn't evolution plan for 200,000 years in the future when free time is so available that we can sit around crying about death

gee I don't fucking know retard

Boycott them for the time being. Food and genes shouldn't be patentable.

You're a stupid commie niggerfaggot.

>>8941589
It's all fine while you're just making veggies more nutritious and more resilient
it stops being fun when you purposefully make them infertile and jew people out of money annually for more seeds, like Monsato does

for those interested here's my story

Personally I always wanted to become a physicist and to come up with all kinds of new theories and breakthrough ideas (my big one was wanting to figure out how to travel "faster than light"), but as I've gotten to my senior year in physics at a very respectable school I realize that I'm just not cut out to be one of the best, not even close (I'm at somewhere between 130-140 IQ). It may sound stupid that I ever even thought I was, but I guess that's what happen when you spend most of your life as a big fish in a small pond. Anyways, there are people in my class and people at better universities that run laps around me, and I have no way to compete with their superior intellect. So I've decided to not pursue graduate physics because I'd most likely just end up a slightly-above-mediocre scientist and I'm not interested in that, if I can't be the best I don't wanna do it. So I've decided go do graduate applied math and combine it with finance so that I can at least earn some money.

Anyways, I'd love to hear your stories.

my story is that I'm not an insecure retard who thinks I'm not cut out for physics because I'm not the top supergenius on the entire planet

>>8941370
Oh well that wasn't my point, I'm quitting physics because I'm not gonna be doing anything revolutionary in the field, and I don't want to be an "ok" or even "good" physicist. You may be content with that but I am not. I'm certainly cut out for physics, and you don't have to be a supergenius for it either.

There seems to be some truth to the idea where intelligens is heritable, where the east-asians scores the best I think. But the way you eat doesn´t effect your DNA so I doubt that part.

Now, to my dumb question, does anyone know the oxidation steps when
C2H4 -> CH20

I know its similar to the methane steps, but not sure how it goes when I´ve got two carbons..

Unless you can document that said things alter your DNA, no. If the mother eats said things during her pregnancy, then I could see there being an effect, but again, need documentation. Look it up.

I vaguely remember a study that suggested your baby would be good at things you were doing a lot of when they were conceived. Sort of related to what you're saying

Why are you here and not on reddit?

>>8940542
do you think anyone gives a fuck?

>>8940582
Apparently you since you replied

Their shroud of normietivity only lasts about 60-70 years and then they are powerless. Having to live even more years with no power is not in their best interests,

>>8939643
They are fucking idiots that dont realize they can self study cool shit like physics and math when they cant party, fuck, and flash their titties

Because it's bogeymanned in film and media as part of "things man aren't to mettle in"

Right but I'm trying to figure out how some bits of everything are related to other bits of everything

Monitoring this.
I hadnt thought about this, there has to be some research on this

>>8939077
sure, regular HFCS isn't much more harmful than crystal sugar aside where one comes in bags and boxes while the other comes in fucking everything and turns people into sickly fatfucks

>>8939077
>the same as refined sugar
it is not.

>>8939092
I too hate calories.
