Assuming it is a continuous pizza: the answer is {}

define a slice of pizza, you could make infinite cuts with just this information, or I guess you get as many slices as there are *insert smallest kind of particle you can get from this super god knife* in a pizza

>>8736158
many

Gritty IQ wins

IQ wins every time

The only people that say IQ wins are pompous assholes than have never tried something that is genuinely hard. Grit wins everytime. I had some CS classmates who were as smart as me in uni, very gifted individuals, but upon reaching the point they needed to genuinely try and work to understand material, they quit. People who are used to working hard, or are able to, make it through. This is a part of the reason why there are so many college drop-outs. People coast by in highschool and never develop the grit nessesary to do well in college and in life. People who have intelligence but lack grit will either settle for low achievement, be defeated when faced with challenge, or develop the needed grit. Unfortunately, most fall in the two formers.

Everything can be approximated by one equation and nothing can be approximated by one equation.

I´m learning the programming language scala and wonder how you guys felt about learning how to code? Currently I´m trying to write a tail recursion to square a number without using multiplication. Is it normal to find that hard at the beginning?

It's normal for most wannabe coders to realize they aren't autistic enough and give up, yes.

I want to do it in college, but my math base is awful because I didn't give a shit about school about two~four years ago. Now I'm fucked.
Also Python is fun so far.

How can things occur without causality? It doesn't even make sense.

Basically, it's the belief that YOU choose what you do and that your choices are not just a result of the past. That you could've done something otherwise if at that moment you were like you know what, nah.

brains are expensive
they take a ton of calories and increase the probabilty of complications during pregnancy. before modern medicine and agriculture there was strong pressure to keep brains just big enough

the reason whites and asians lead in IQ is most likely because they've been living in more complex urban environments for a long time. This removes some of the pressures reducing brain size and also increases the competitive demands on the brain. Keep in mind that most of those demands are social, for example the number of faces you'll have to recognize in a day/lifetime; a big chunk of cortex is just facial recognition. So autists that have cortex dedicated to math instead of social/seduction are an accident/dead end.

I've seen some papers around on the increased growth rate on some plants under some electricity/static el.field, don't remember details though. Looked interesting enough.

Anycase we'd probably need a fuckton of trees to stop the trend we have now.

The more a plant grows and has mass the more carbon it captures. They are by their very nature carbon capturing devices. Increasing that rate merely means increasing their growth rate.

In South America they are planting GMO eucalyptus trees for the paper industry. Since they need more paper at a faster rate that also means the trees must grow faster and capture more carbon at the same time. While these trees are not being used for bettering the environment through carbon capturing, their initial reason does the same thing.

If the wood is good for building purposes then it can be stored and used for housing and such. That is the only real way to slow down the release of the carbon back into the environment.

>>8736539
Do ancient forests absorb less carbon than a young, growing forest then?

>>8736230
I wish this was real

The problem is even if this is true there's no point in drinking your own sperm because it's just taking it out of your body and putting it back in, but losing some of it in the process. The brain should of already learned how to use those proteins and whatnot to increase intelligence.

Your body is equipped to repair almost every single failure you can manage to inflict on you. Medicine is not that important, because humans should just learn how to eat+sleep+sport and live carefully, avoiding injury and infections.

Somebody is born sick and malformed? Yeah just throw it to the wolves and make a new baby. Somebody is shit human and unable to survive? Good, natural selection.

Medicine is needed to extend human biology, like increasing life span.

The specific number isn't the best indicator. Like if you're 132 and your friend is 133, that doesn't mean anything. Now 15 point gaps are good indicators for intelligence comparison, anything smaller, not so much.

IQ is meaningless. And I'm not just saying this because I'm insecure about my small IQ.

take hella hgh and testosterone. Testosterone makes your ramus longer like his and HGH boosts IQ.
