The root cause is carbonated fountain drinks.

population is stable in america
we are powerless where it counts
however, the root cause of global warming, from an american perspective, is the way we produce our food.
and noone wants to change that.

>>8893901
The people who know this aren't responsible for the problem. It's the third-world shitholes and developing ex-shitholes that just keep plopping out kids.

Moscow reporting, it's literally snowing here right now. Explain that, global warmingcucks

daily reminder that we're so fucked it isn't even funny anymore

It will get a little bit warmer and some poor people will die. I'll be ok, you will probably be fine too.

>>8887072
getting there, at the current pace we're going past the point of no return of 450 ppm around 2030

https://youtu.be/Mc_4Z1oiXhY?t=17m45s

How many years until 1 million PPM?

they catalyse reactions that degrade pollutants into water vapor and carbon dioxide, hence CATALYTIC convertic

>>8897734
OP is asking how they do it that. How do catalysts work

It's probably too complicated for /sci/

>>8897734
So would the nitrogen oxides naturally break down into N2 and O2 eventually, since catalysts don't actually create a reaction, they just speed it up?

I would suggest not memorizing stuff and instead trying to work it out yourself as if you were "inventing" the math you're trying to study.
That way, you can actually start from 0 and slowly build up solid mathematical knowledge.
Mathematics isn't something you memorize because someone asked you to, you will slowly realize it's beauty and usefulness.
As soon as you start getting into it, you will be quite interested in doing aditional research and you will become addicted.
Don't worry if you don't get everything super quickly, it's better to slowly build a solid understanding of mathematics rather than memorizing for a few weeks and then forgetting everything. Mathematics is so elegant that soon it will all start making sense to you, to the point at which you can probably say "Oh, I could have probably invented this theorem / solve this problem myself.".
Mathematics is elegant and makes logical sense, so I suggest using reason more than memory.
In other words, don't try to memorize a lot of random information, DO the math and "feel it" in your brain.

I guess..

>>8896766
that is some of the best advice i have ever received. thank you.

>>8896690

Practice.

You don't just "get good" at math overnight, or a semester, or a year. You have to get used to thinking in math logic, which is not the natural way the brain likes to think.

hollow earth is somehow even more retarded than flat earth

not a science

Because it doesn't probe the physical substrate of reality like the hard sciences do

The goal is to be able to control what you think about. The benefits are pretty self evident: more focus, more discipline, stress reduction ect. Meditation is practicing that skill by attempting to think about nothing for a period of time.

>>8893411
Literally wanted to ask the same question

>>8893411
You should do a rinse with clean water. A refill will still have residual detergent, but much less than the wash water.

>>8893411

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR FUCKING ASS?!

I use paper towels and then rinse my anus neighborhood with a shower tube with unscrewed head, but guess what THERE'S STILL PLENTY OF SHIT THAT FINDS IT'S WAY ON MY FUCKING UNDERPANTS AND THEN IT'S LIKE THAT'S IT.

What the fuck is the solution? TAKING A SHOWER AFTER EACH SHITTING PROCEDURE IS NOT FUCKING ACCEPTED. Give me something practical.

There are no wet wipes in my country. Not for wiping ass anyway, just small things for hands, but they are extremely inconvenient.

this guy looks like a clit with a wig

is he for real? is this a joke? what kind of new mathematical concept is defined in a fucking youtube video? this is laughable, it's a piggot oinkery

>>8889598
Algebraic calculus? I'm unfamiliar with the term. What is it?

This man is my god
that pure smugness as he unravels our notation of maths showing its true glory, as he BTFO of the old """""""mathematicians""""""""" lost in their own ways of formalism, simply because they couldn't see what he can.
At last i truly understand

Suppose Tim is an expert at playing chess, but Bob is an expert at selling a product. Furthermore, Bob is weak at chess, and Tim is weak at selling products. Furthermore, assume Tim and Bob have the same looks, and differ only in mannerisms and actions.

It turns out this is quite common in the real world. The "geek" vs the "people person."

Is it as simple as saying that since Chess is a game of computation, that Tim is universally more intelligent than Bob? To say Tim is universally more intelligent than Bob, you have to prove that high-level Chess is a harder "game" than, say, getting laid or selling something. If what Bob does is so simple, and Tim is so much smarter, why is Tim still a virgin at 29?

>>8897738
g has empirical evidence, multiple intelligence theory doesnt
that's all you need to know

>>8897738
>. If what Bob does is so simple,
What Bob is doing isn't simple.

>and Tim is so much smarter, why is Tim still a virgin at 29?
Because being smart won't get you laid.

Generally speaking I'm gonna put my dick in your ASS FAGGOT

In the real world they work together and respect each other's talents. And the engineer fucks the scientist's wife after taking her out to dinner in his Mercedes S65 AMG

Also consider this:
PhD engineer
>conducts research
>hired with job title "Research Scientist"
>knows fuckload of specific physics in his field
>performs work using math and scientific method

>BS in chemistry
>literally uses lookup tables

B-but the first guy has engineer in his name he-he's not a SCIENTIST LIKE ME

kys autists

P.S. even if the PhD engineer doesn't get called a scientist he has more than enough money to make himself feel better that a bunch of broke cucks think he isn't (((cool)))

Earth's sidereal day is actually a few minutes less than 24 hours, 23 hours 56 minutes and 4 seconds to be precise.
The Solar day is 24 hours because the Earth takes a few minutes to rotate that extra little bit to have the sun in the same position in the sky.

>>8897046
Huh?

Be precise. The longitude of the Earth directly facing the Sun is always at 12:00pm. The time of the day is not the same everywhere on Earth. On the leftmost Earth in your picture, it's 12:00pm for the people on the brightest side. On the rightmost Earth, it's 12:00pm for those people on the brightest side. On the bottom Earth, it's 12:00pm for the people on the bright side that you can't see.

Got nothing but 5's for all the kids who paid me to take it for them. Pretty easy stuff.

if you don't get a 5 on AP Calc AB, you're a brainlet. No exceptions.
Same applies to AP Physics C exams but with a 4 instead.
