>Developed world

The developed world has either stable or declining populations. It's the developing world (Africa in particular) that's going to be the major driver for global population growth in the coming century. Population controls in the west would do jack shit.

Fuck me I'm left wing and even I hate this faggot. Please stop posting him, he's not good for my blood pressure.

Just throw Obama, Gore, Nye, Leonardo Dicaprio and half of hollywood into a giant pit and cover it up. That will offset the CO2 footprint of a whole lot of people.

>>8896439
That's the point. Theoretically, if we can't stop Africa from overpopulating, wouldn't it make sense to curb the population in the Western world so not only could we decrease our carbon footprint but we could also make room for the Africans to come here to live better lives?

Bump. I actually like this channel but this video made me dissmiss the whole channel.

>destroy this man
Kill yourself, we're not your personal army

>our Universe is fine tuned hence God
This argument is so retarded, Jesus, I'm not even an atheist. How does this dipshit know that the Universe didn't come to exist and immediately collapse because four fundamentals weren't just right a gorillion gorillion times before hitting necessary ratios? The unlikeliness of the odds is irrelevant in infinity, if something could exist at all, it WOULD necessarily come to exist.

Einstein was a terrible teacher, being good at something doesnt mean you have pedagogic skills.

>>8893565
It takes time to teach and you don't need a Ph.D. with a long and successful history of publishing to do it. It's better for society to have people apt at teaching spend their time doing that while the Einsteins do research. Whatever genius will go down through healthy family interactions and genetics.

Diginatives these days

Also, I'm pretty sure that if you asked any doctoral student who they would like to be their teacher ..

the EU is
unfortunately USA isn't

>>8893050
What are the measures that EU is taking to facilitate that?

Maybe if sociology and similar were proper sciences.
But today? No.

>>8892957
No.

>Not an argument.

You asked me a question. You said was relativity bullshit. I'm telling you it's not. If you have a specific question ask it. If you want me to watch 40 minutes of some memesters video then fuck off. I don't care if you think GR is bullshit because it isn't. If you think some part of it is, ask a question.

because they had shit teachers that taught them to memorize everything and understand nothing, so math is traumatic to them and they're rather ignore it

Because math is freedom and they do not want to be free.

>>8892768
wow that was reasonable. i was expecting something about normies and being inferior etc.

In excess, obviously. However, as with alcohol, you need moderation. People just don't want to accept either the responsibility or the fact that you can be responsible with it so you have people coping saying it literally cures cancer and it has no risk of addiction or they say it will somehow make you a retraded degenerate. Ideally, you shouldn't use drugs, but hey, life can get pretty dull sometimes.

>>8892781
except alcohol literally kills you fast if you use it to get drunk every night where as cannabis wont

>>8892783
Smoking every night will get you retarded though.

People only do wrong because they lack foresight.

You shudent have showed them in the first place, standarts are set early on. I only give hints and never show anyone a single letter I wrote. "Too risky" or "none of your business" are nice explanations to the people who ask for them. I hint them only because I'm nice, most of them don't deserve shit

Celsius scale isn't good for what your thinking. Convert it to kelvin since its an "absolute" scale.

Is 279 kelvin twice as cold as 278 kelvin? Obviously not. Also, what do you think temperature is?

>>8892445
Please read up on the Celcius and Kelvin scales on your own before posting this garbage.

>>8892445
No, because celsius is not a measurement of intensity, it's a measurement of temperature.

>cog-in-the-machine like high energy / particle physics
Your understanding of what HEP is really like is obviously severely lacking.
There are many HEP experiments to work on outside of the LHC. Similarly, these experiments provide the greatest room for achievement and the acquisition of skills which can propel you into a vast number of private industry positions, beyond the realm of physics.

>>8892288
Still, it's quite a bit harder to secure funding and especially work independently compared to optics wouldn't you say?

Sorry for my over-generalization but the main question stands as to whether or not someone who studies BEC is likely to remain studying BEC or get fucked off to "beyond physics" and into finance?

>>8892236
The vortices on the surface of a BEC are one the very few places in quantum physics that you can observe geometry that has to be described with irrational numbers

>pretty fancy

>>8891654
irrationality of sqrt(some odd number) better than sqrt(some even number)

guess I'm alt right now

Also, Euler turning the zeta function into a product involving primes was the most jaw-dropping proof I've read at the time.
