Emit C2O.

remove china

its the only way

>reverse the effects
Doesn't work that way. That'd be like asking how do we unscramble an egg.
We have to minimize our emissions o slow the rate at which the warming occurs and/or find ways to make sure we continue surviving in the heated world.

>Can a binary relation be reflexive,symmetric,anti symmetric AND transitive at the same time ?

yes, but symmetric and antisymmetric at the same time makes it boring, this works with the usual = on whatever set of numbers you want (reals, rationals, integers...)

>Plus a simple explanation of transitive relations would be greatly appreciated
ordering relations work here (like < or >) since a< b and b<c imply a<c

>if aRb and bRc then aRc but are there any special cases where a relation is transitive without this being the case
what do you mean here, this is what transitive means

>>8575685
Yes, a relation full of elements like (x,x)

It is reflexive
It is symmetric trivially
It is anti symmetric
It is transitive trivially

What is a transitive relation? Well, a relation is transitive if and only if:
IF (a,b) is an element of the relation and (b,c) is an element of the relation then (a,c) must be an element of a relation.

Why is the relation I constructed trivially transititive? Because no such scenario even exists. There are just elements like (1,1) and (2,2) so the only statement of transitivity in the relation is:

(1,1) is in the relation and (1,1) is in the relation so (1,1) is in the relation... and it is. Trivially

>>8575697
Thank you anon
so a reflexive relation can be considered transitive ? If there were nothing but loops ?

>Also looking for more books that show how quantum mechanics strongly points to the existence of God.

Geg, how about starting with Calculus 1 and a first semester physics book on mechanics, brainlet?

>>8575505
God?what God. Quantum mechanics points not to God,but Buddhism. Check for your self

>>8575521
Ce n'est pas un argument.
>>8575522
Any person of deep philosophical contemplation and firm reason will find that Buddhism is nothing but a shallow, meaningless pseudo-philosophy with no profound wisdom or innovation of thought.

truly the outside-the-box thinking /sci/ is known for!

Everything was impossible until someone made it possible.

On the side note:
>wants to reconnect with his dead father
>reconnect with his father
>a black man is literally trying to achieve one of the most desired aspects from the world of sci-fi just so he could meet his father

I know he's dead and thus it doesn't imply that the father necessarily abandoned the family and perhaps they lived as a family, but even then the joke here almost writes itself.

Id like to find a function that spits out:
f(1)=2
f(2)=5
f(3)=1
f(4)=1

Like reverse engineering a function i suppose. So id like to find something like f(x)=x^2-2x+1 or whatever it ends up being....my end goal is to then manipulate that function, maybe a geometric approach would be more sensible

OP here, im starting to find what im wanting maybe. Interpolation seems what im after.

id still appreciate tidbits of wisdom on interpolation, esp. Wrt High degree equations

I'm still trying to get into cryptology, but I've been pretty busy studying mathematics, engineering and physics. So, is the Cicada scene really worth it, or do you just end up getting brainwashed into joining a cult/GCHQ/NSA (basically the same thing)?

They will use you and seek out to find "better" solvers.

First Century = AD1 : AD100
Second Century = AD101 : AD200
First Millennium = AD1 : AD1000
Second Millennium = AD1001 : AD2000

The current calendar is shit anyway. Why the fuck are still using the rotation of the Earth to synchronize or clocks with.

We should get rid of timezones. We should all just live in UTC. Ir "Zulu" time.

And get rid of leap days. A year should be 364 days, so a Sunday would be a Sunday every year.

That doesn't fucking make sense. How the fuck do you apply a force to the center of mass of a disc? Unless you're applying that force normal to the flat sides of the disc, but then it would fall over. Otherwise, you're going to be applying force to the round side of the disc, but that isn't the center of mass obviously.

>>8573214
I have no idea what you are talking about, and feel offended the first person to respond didn't offer any advice about this problem. If you have a problem visualizing this situation in reality, note that the rigidness of the plane and other such cues clearly define it as a hypothetical exercise. Perhaps you could think of it as a small man or fly hovering close to the center of mass of the disc at the prescriped angle to the disc plain constantly holding a special device that attracts the central atom of the disc in his direction.

So in other words a big fat fucking meme?

Think of it like rape. Voltage is how strong you are. Resistance is how strong your date is, and current is whether or not you can j-jam it in. If you are both super strong shes probably just gonna karate chop you and thats that, no snu snu.

Static electricity is like one of those body builders that has huge muscles but is actually really weak, and probably a fag. So when he tries to rape some heterosexual straight male hero before the feminists get to him, hes basically useless since the guy was a construction worker and has the potent kind of muscles from a life of lifting things. So no score

To summarize static electricity is gay.

>>8572740
Voltage, current and resistance don't really exist.

Only electrons exist. And when one point of space has more/less electrons then some other point, the difference between number of electrons can be, with major simplifications, expressed in Volts (normally, batteries or current generators have constant flow of electrons which generate voltage, but connection between the amount of electrons and voltage can be expressed through C = F * V, where C is amount of electrons, F is capacity of the capacitor where the electrons are condensed, and V is voltage).

So when voltage between point A and B is 100V, you have a lot of electrons that want to go from point A to point B. How do they go there? Well, electrons, due to some obscure chemical theory of atoms, travels easiest through metals. Thats why we use wires for communication. So, if there's a metal path from point A to point B, electrons will start flowing. That's called current. However, electrons don't just "flow" through metal, they actually "hit" the other electrons in the atoms and lose some of their energy that way. That's called RESISTANCE. Different materials have different resistance, so the stronger the resistance is, the harder time electrons will have flowing from point A to point B.

TL;DR - Voltage is 'attack', Resistance is 'defense' and Current is the 'damage dealt'.

>>8572740
>why can relatively high voltage (e.g. static electricity) still be harmless?

Because W=VI

The infinite nature of time? No. There is a finite amount of stuff and entropy is always increasing.

>>8572628
>muh arbitrary human impositions

It's a contradiction to suggest entropy is always increasing.

>>8572627
The universe's rate of expansion is accelerating, and eventually, it will be accelerating too quickly for atoms to get together to form molecules. Each will effectively be its own little universe, as every atom will be moving away from every other at, effectively, speeds greater than the speed of light - followed eventually by the same being true for particles. So no, there is not infinite time in which the universe can support complex life.

On the other hand, the universe is a big place, and there's only so many combinations, so there might be another you living somewhere out there, right now.
