It can, but the probability is overwhelmingly small.

if you don't stop posting on my board i'm gonna quantum tunnel my micro-cock through your asshole

You have a near infinitely higher chance of having the window partially tunnel through the fly and killing it.

Read up on differential forms first and vector calculus becomes trivial

thanks

Saturn V because the shuttle is ridiculous

miniaturization of electronics
astronomy n shit

But the shuttle brought a new generation interested in space again. The 2000s couldve done with a new space craft design

I never heard that stereotype. I know it's true for russians because their educative system is more math oriented than others, to maybe it's something similar in France

>>8767261
Germans and Russians (specially the ashkenazim) are better.

France is so boring that mathematics is a popular form of escapism, although not as popular as being drunk or fucking boys.

Cringe. Leave.

nuclear, solar will get fucked by sand storms.

Reddit said that solar is about 2/3 as effective as on earth. Further away from sun bad. Thin atmosphere good.

Would likely be determined to some extent by availability of resources on Mars, for a base of long term sustainability and size. Obviously, solar will suffer from distance, but if resources for it are abundant, there is plenty of room at least.

This is an old line of thought from his blog and from a casual text he wrote years ago.

It's actually probably the non-mathematical writing I like the most (the worst being the Hillary shilling).

It's valuable because a lot of guys don't understand that rigor and formal logic isn't the end state of math, or that math in practice doesn't look like the field of logic of theoretical computer science. Let alone that most mathematicans probably couldn't name 5 of the 10 or so axioms of ZFC.

what are you doing with your life

I am taking a lot of time travelling to college and back.
How do I learn to study in my room?
Is there a guide to follow?

Discourse with people I consider peers.
Listening to other people that have great authority in their field.

>What methods other than the scientific method do people on /sci/ find useful to gather truths in various aspects of life?

You'd get mad if you were to use the scientific method in real life to find "truths".

You can of course do experiments and find stuff, but the truth of it would be so weak it's totally irrelevant, the world is way too vast to use the scientific method in a non retarded way as an individual.

nice try wolfram, they're completely useless and don't belong on the science board, fuck off

Conway's Game of Life should be the most popular CA but there's a lot more to it.

It is a good way to understand the numerous possibilities of Turing complete CAs.

I think they're cool, I thnk that kids should be exposed to them at a young age considered how easily they are defined and convey very well the message thay simple rules can lead to very interesting. I also think Wolfram went a bit too far and forcifully tried to build a whole philosophical system around there without really much scientific to say...

that's why i'm doing it as a hobby

it's not going anywhere but it's fun

>>8761825
You're going to uni as a hobby?

Banning genetic tests is similar to these ideas

Ban academic tests - no one should be judged by their academic success

Ban criminal history - no one should be judged for their past criminal activity

etc

The idea that Genetic Tests are somehow not allowable or exactly similar is ludicrous. All anti-genetic determinism does is slow down and hold back society. If a genetic test can inform an employer on the success rate of their employee, it should be allowable. A full on genetic test ban is too heavy handed and stupid.

They're not using Dragon 1 you idiot.

That is what it looks like after going through the atmosphere. What else than circlejerk makes your retarded brain think it won't make it?

people like to meme on the shuttle tiles but aren't they (or something like them) basically required for any true future spacecraft?

even with a heatshield, you can't have the thermal blankets covering everything else getting scorched on every landing and needing replaced after 1 or 2 flights

>>8769717
you're fucked

delete your thread and go away

>>8769727
you can't delete threads any more

If you actually cared about making it, you wouldn't need the approval of a Samoan tribal painting convention.
You're just looking for excuses not to try.

And this is Maryam Mirzakhani, a 2014 Fields Medal recipient. She is the first woman to receive the fields medal. Her citation reads
>"for her outstanding contributions to the dynamics and geometry of Riemann surfaces and their moduli spaces."


Why did it take so long for a woman to win a Fields Medal?

Chlorophyll is green, it does reflect light.
Guess what, it reflects green light.
It's even in the name, chloro.
