It's from some continental gender feminist philosopher investigating the sexed nature of language.

What do you mean, it took a prime to save Cybertron from Unicron and beat Galvatron

What is RSA encryption?

>>8578899

any number past 200^100 is irrelevant to any human to every exist. This is something that many mathematicians still fail to grasp.

>>8578897
Technically light is radiation right?

Would RTGs count? Or fungi that feed off of radiation?

I did hear of some meme where some dude claimed to use nano materials to directly convert radiation into electricity unlike an RTG.

>>8578897
Yes: look up "alphavoltaincs" and "betavoltaics".

You must have missed the huge news about C12 "diamond" batteries: half life of 5700 years makes these batteries quite impressive.

>>8578911
Not 'technically', light is photons, photons are radiation.

"undefined" is a placeholder for the solution that is not defined

Think of it like a multivalued operation.
[eqn]0\cdot a=0~\forall a\in \mathbb{C}[/eqn]

what number multiplied by zero gives you the original number?

15/3 = 5

3*5 = 15

15/0 = undefined; because

0 * ?? = 15

see. fill that ?? in with a number and you get a fields medal AND i will suck your dick

there are enough shitposts on sci currently, please wait

because people aren't that smart

>>8578732
But scientists are.

They're keeping us down, man.

>>8578575
See what you the have the most natural talent in and pursue that.

>>8578575
The fact that you like all of that shit implies that your brain is full of Hey, vsauce here memes.

If you really wanted to learn advanced math that passion for math would knock out physics and neuroscience from your interests, for example.

You are just a big meme. Your life is a meme. And you are probably underage too. You underage meme.

Anons I have already chosen my major, currently getting an Msc degree in neuroscience.
I just find this weird sense of remorse from times to times whenever I think about it.
It took me a long time to choose neuroscience too.
Maybe I'm just a greedy fuck.

Slap his ass and say good work but more conjectures need solving before you can go 3D

Wow. What do you do? What field?

If you can prove that you developed it entirely on your own without any aid or help from the university, you stand a chance. Proving that might be difficult, and they might make the argument that just supporting you via your salary gives them a fingerhold on anything you create outside of work.

Like a lot of things, it depends on the school and department.

Schools that have strong reputations as hotbeds of "innovation" (Stanford, Waterloo, etc) generally want to maintain that reputation and not be seen as overly litigious regarding student IP and only claim ownership of IP if it's developed as a result of "assigned tasks" or part of coursework/research.

Other schools might go to the other extreme and say if you developed it while you were a student here, it's ours.

No, they should retire, and open up some decent jobs for the rest of us.

Pic related was ok.

As far as the subject goes I guess it had a fair amount of information.

However, most of the homosexuality subplot took over by the last half of the movie.

Would've been more interesting to know more about the achievement itself and how it was made.

Do you know just how stupid this question is, /lit/?

This board will wrongly shit on you for wanting to read Euclid, OP (see this >>8576050 faggot), but it's generally a good idea if you can be serious about it and hunker down for an extended period. It's especially a good idea since the Elements is one of the few ancient texts which remains /uncontroversially/ true among people who have actually read and understand it. This isn't some political theory which is a function of what the individual or culture values.

It would be especially good for you if you're not great at math and logic yet sincerely want to learn how the process and related arguments actually work. You can actually get that out of Euclid.

The nitpicking about Euclid here is just that. There is this weird tendency in the sciences to want to be ahistorical, and it's especially the younger people (read: this board's core userbase) who refuse on some level to understand why it is important to understand the history of science.

And the NT problem.

>>8574812
For the calc one:
For each n >= 1, [math]x_{n+1}^3 = x_n^3 + 1 + \frac{1}{3x_n^3} + \frac{1}{27x_n^6}[/math]. Hence, we can write [math]x_n^3 \ge n + \sum_{j=1}^{n-1}\frac{1}{3x_j^3}[/math].
To complete the proof, we need only prove that [math]\sum_{j=1}^{n-1}\frac{1}{x_j^3}[/math] is unbounded. But we have [math]x_{n+1}^3 \le x_n^3 + 3[/math], hence [math]\forall n \ge 1, x_n^3 \le 3n[/math].
Finally, we get [math]\sum_{j=1}^{n-1}\frac{1}{x_j^3} \ge \sum_{j=1}^{n-1} \frac{1}{3j}[/math], which concludes.

Good initiative. I'll gladly ponder both problems. Too few people in this board value problem-solving over memes
