Well the hope is that there are aliens out there who might want to contact us. If there was intelligent life in our solar system, we'd have known by now.

Why the hell are idiots so crazy about contacting aliens?

We have more than enough problems with humans.

>>8716619
Understanding how life can form in another places can help us in our own place. I think this might be the best answer.
Also, all the planets in our system so far are not habitable at all. The only place of interest maybe Mars to put a fucking telescopy and Europa to try to find something under all that ice.

let A be R
B be Q
and C be Q aswell

>>taking pre-algebra in college and not even doing very well on it

How many hours per week outside class do you dedicate to the course?

It may be an early on class but if you need to catch up on a subject you havent done in many many years spending 10-20 hours a week is not unheard of.

If you are committing 10-20 hours, taking advantage of tutoring from your school EVERY SINGLE WEEK, and actively go to your professors office hours at least ONCE A WEEK. If you are doing all this and you still can't perform well, then you might reconsider brushing up on the basics before pre-algebra.

If you are not doing this then it isn't your smarts that are stopping you but rather your motivation, work ethic and effort.


Most jobs will require a knowledge of pre-algebra. And you can fucking do it. There is no such thing as being too much of a brainlet for algebra. Some of us got more experience, had better teachers, used it more consistently so it is easier to pick up. Some have not learned algebra or any math since the age of 16. So yeah, they'll have a harder time filling in old gaps and developing a math sense, but is is definitely doable.

Feels bad man. I'll never understand the secrets of the universe. I just want to understand Quantum Physics properly and not through the lens of pop sci "lol it's so weird how can it be a particle AND a wave? lol crazy"

I agree, there does need to be a collective goal shift.

>>8710041
I wouldn't worry we should have it figured out within 20-30 years even earlier if AI is good enough to assist in the research. There are a lot of smart people from all over the world working on this not just Aubrey.

>>8710065
yup, i reckon it'd take something like a global push akin to what happened culturally in the us during the height of nasa for any realistic hope of these breakthroughs in our lifetime. it's just depressing this isn't recognized as a bigger issue for most people, not to say the other issues aren't relevant but they're only relevant while we're living. seems to me like survival is logically the main priority. even though i understand eventually everything will end one way or another thanks to the 2nd law of thermo. but how many trillion years that is into the future may as well feel like an eternity.
