what's wrong with paywalls when you have sci-hub?

>>8860434
It's not always accessible. And adds to the bump limit.

It's an way discourage discussion or encourage a poor discussion based only on the abstracts.


We have hundreds of retards that throw said references at threads they don't sympathize with like crazy as a way of raiding it.

When someone questions it they usually go ape shit and take the thread downhill.

Or even worse, retards of antagonistic opinions fall for the bait and start throwing even more paywalls at the thread.

>>8860426
support for code tags

physics too

>>8860452
I thought about that too but is it as pure as the subjects above?

only brainlets "focus" and "specialize" in subjects

>given up
You are assuming we had a chance to begin with.

Give up most of your limited time for pussy and for a boring ass conversation partner

vs

explore mathematics / science.

Make you're choice and take into account the fact that time is the most precious resource a human can have and that every other resource (happiness, money, whatever) is generated by converting it to them through effort.

I posted something very similar to this a week ago and I got a warning.

Evolution is a process the leads to perfection. She was lucky enough to get there sooner than others. Given enough time, everyone on the planet will be perfect.

She seems ugly to me because I know she is mentally retarded and that in the impossible event that I'd manage to fuck her I'd have to pay her a lot and no pussy is worth alimony / half of my wealth / millions of dollars.

How good can a used-up wet tube of meat be? is it really worth millions or billions? She's not a virgin, she's a used up whore who probably fucked at least a thousand different people until this day.

Entertainment.

Attempt to divert the people's attention from real problems using vain "achievements". These are the last breaths of the white dominance and they are desperate to grasp something that can give them just a bit more time.

Venus would be better

Do everything in the air, living in cloud cities, dredging the surface for necessary raw materials

I don't care faggot, if you want to make money why are you getting into an academic discipline

You'll earn 70k if you're lucky.

have schools segregated by chromosomes and race

People want to be stupid, there's nothing we can do. Natural selection will do all the work.

"I'm smart, but I am bad at math."

>>8858027
I jump on the bottom track.

Make it drift while ride the beast straight to hell.

You retard. Explaining the joke makes it worse. just post the naked image.

This is my opinion

Coping with anxiety by a drug instead of learning to deal with it yourself will of course just make it worse in the future

Also those two examples are strange
Is this a bait thread?
What have a done?

>>8857651
because all drugs are foreign materials that mess with the feedback loop for the secretion of naturally produced chemicals that are supposed to decrease anxiety. The brain becomes lazy and doesn't do it anymore because you're supplying the chemicals.
It's just efficiency.
I'm glad drugs are so bad in the longterm. I just wish humans had really long lives so I could see people get a taste of their own medicine when they get hit with the consequences of doing DUDE WEED LMAO

>I wish negativity on other people because they do things I don't approve of even though it doesn't really hurt anyone
You're so cool

why does 0/0 need to have a value?

a value of 0 in the denominator is always undefined so impossible.

-1/-1 = ????

kys my man

Take an IQ test.

If you're under 120/125 and your in a STEM course then drop out.

Less debt, less stress, less frustration.

Just get a qualification or certificate, you might be able to transfer credits

>mfw I'm in the second group
it's because you lack imagination or memory

if you can't or don't take advantage of both or either you're forced to memorize the course material sequentially

when you have good memory and imagination you're basically reducing the quantity of information required to study by using your imagination and by creating mental links between new information and previous information and good memory helps cement that new shit really well

it's about data compression, kolmogorov complexity, the kolmogorov complexity of an information contained in an object is (roughly) the length of the shortest algorithm that can fully describe the information in that object

let's say I give you a book that is 1000 pages long and only contains the letter "A" repeated millions of times. Obviously, that book does not contain too much information. It's basically "Repeat A millions of times", that's an algorithm that describes it.

When you have good imagination you don't study a new string of information as it is, I mean, you do not memorize it word-for-word. You go like "wait, this is very similar to X that I already known but it's only 1% different, it means I already know this!" and you greatly reduce the amount you need to know.

Some people with good imagination I'm sure don't even have good memory. I have pretty shit memory, actually. But if I recognize a pattern in a new piece of information I already know it perfectly.

Patterns / algorithms are NEVER longer than the information they describe. That's a mathematical fact.

rudin looks ridiculously out of place there and the only way you would have bought it is /sci/ memes, good job

i'm just here to laugh at brainlets that fell for /sci/'s meme textbook lists

>>8855439
Got it for $3 at a local goodwill...

Its not even as hard as brainlets make it out to be, but I'm only 3 chapters in so we'll see

We should save nuclear for all other energy requirements, like space exploration. It's a waste if we use nuclear on earth, when the sun generates energy anyway.

>>8853654
decentralised renewable, mostly like solar panels everywhere, on just about every surface you can imagine and likely more than that.

It'll be like the computer revolution, some big ones here and there but the core of the revolution is that everybody is up to their knees with CPUs.

I'm not sure I can get a bingo with this thread.

...except you can be locked up for life and forced to take mind-killing drugs entirely on psychiarists' say-so.
