Doesn't this BTFO Quantum Mechanics? It disproves the Pauli Exclusion Principle. Particles in there also probably violate the Uncertainty Principle. How Quantum Mechanics be real if these things exist?

Tell me if this is a correct assumption or not

someone kicks an object while standing in front of it, half the force would push on the object, the other half will push back on the person, correct?

now if someone slides into the object as they kick and are already in motion, will 100% or closer to 100% of the power from the kick now go into the object?

the idea being the forward slide cancels out the backwards push of the kick, which means the leg is now extending into the object more rather than pushing the kicker backwards

I don't understand how people can hate politics or want to stay away from politics. Your own life is absolutely affected by it.

>>8775743
True but I find that paying too much attention to it makes me very mad for no good reason. It's easy to get worked up over stuff that doesn't affect your day to day life that much.

It does affect my life somewhat but there's also very little I can do about it.

Is it theoretically possible to create a deadly virus which only affects people with a strong tendency to have conservative beliefs?

>>8775263
They figured out that conservative and democrats brains work different, and that the change it's produced by watching the other party candidates.

You could theoretically create a visual bombardment that would neutralize only one party.

How many of you guys are first generation STEM, or higher level education in your families?

Does anyone have a STEM PhD in their nuclear family?

Does a STEM degree in the family increase the likelihood that their child will pursue a degree in STEM?

my mom is/was a white trash turboslut. i knew i was a product of a one night stand, but it wasn't until after i graduated engineering school that i found out my bio dad was a high level engineer at lockheed martin.

i'm the only one in my family to have ever graduated college.

anecdotal, but take it for what you will.

>>8775034
Thanks for sharing, I am actually looking for anecdotes like this.
>>
My dad was a fireman until I was born, then he went to a sister school of a big university (basically a step above a community college but not up to par with a real uni) for programming
My mom has worked the same clerk job for the city police dept since she finished high school.
My mom's brother is a statistician though, with an IQ of 165, and has worked for Lockheed, and Boeing, and has worked as a contractor for a slew of unis, national labs, etc.

Alright ya noobs, I'm settling this time travel hoax once and for all.

First and foremost: Time is an arbitrary notation created by man. If the whole concept were to die out, none of our maths would be any different. All you're giving meaning to is MOTION. Same with energy, there is no such thing, just different forms of motion. Kinetic energy is a pleonasm.

Now back to time. How the FUCK would you translate said arbitrary time notation to a machine somehow connected to space-"time"?
Pro tip: You can't.

Unless you manage to install a framework in the universe with a functional API it's not happening. Yes, mass and speed (same thing) slow down motion but that's it. You can slow down your RELATIVE MOTION as opposed to others but that's not time travel. There's no destination as defined by con-artists getting grant money for fake/stupid study and spend it on booze and cocaine (like my money).

Get over it. There's no such thing as fucking time travel. Niggers.

Also, time TRAVEL implies a destination. Beyond our sketchy communication method (which I'm not fond of either). Tell me, where exactly is next week? or last week? Break out the maths faggot, oh, you can't. Because even Einstein didn't predict destination-based time travel. And none of his maths allow for a stable "wormhole".

checkmate.

>Time is an arbitrary notation created by man

I thought that this was allready known.

Time = Entropy

Right? Does this make sence?

Why is wolfram showing the wrong result? Is there a way to see a step by step solution? If yes, could anyone with wolfram pro check the inverse of f(x)=3+((x)/(2x-3))? Thanks.

>>8773983
Also i know it's the same result but multiplied by -1, but it's wrong!
>>
>>8773984
it's not multiplied by -1, it's literally the same. x/y = (-x)/(-y)
>>
Why do you think it's wrong?

What are some jobs for programmers, mathematicians and also physicists that are both related to new concepts (one must actually do thinking work) and will be highly requested in a possible upcoming war like scenario.

and anything algorithm that isn't cryptography (which I don't think is a field where many people, as measured by the proportion of people already working in the field, can innovate.)

I'm thinking e.g. in this direction, or pic related
