That's why.

>Is it really just that women have less interest in science and math, and "systematic gender inequality" is not to blame?
yes

in scandinavia where there is virtually no gender inequality there are 20 male engineers for every female engineer and 20 female caretakers for every male caretaker (larger ratios than in places with less gender inequality)

when you remove environmental factors the biological interests maximize

(larger ratios than in places with less gender equality)*

That's what you get for not explaining it. Your family loves you and they want to hear you explain things you car about. No need to become so disgusted and awkward over something perfectly normal like this.

Haha

Economy.
Students really don't know each other and brutally fight amongst each other, eventually competing for the same few good positions and careers. Not gonna get better. But a lot of pretty posh girls who learn all day and seek to get fucked by someone who does it well.

just put the error back in

call it "dark algebra"

Just do what everyone else does. Manually change the experimental data so that it fits the model.

>>8569090
The error is really obvious though
I was accounting for friction and managed to fuck it up by assuming friction is proportional to the square of the velocity, since I was working on another paper at the same time which dealt with the drag equation. I did not think much of it until I noticed it a few hours ago, and here I am. Fucked

What Uni these days graduates a math major without exposing that student to several courses in computer languages? None of the UCs, that's almost certain.

If you're going to be studying [diluted because it uses computers, pencils, slide rules, paper, and calculators instead of just your brain] "math", and using computers for it, why not just learn all about the science behind the automata machine, what makes it work, the theory and the math behind it?

Why not use your math for something useful? (computer science)

Sounds like it's your fault.

>With a degree in theoretical mathematics you are actually less employable than an artist. An art degree isn't a tag that says I don't like interacting with people.
confirmed for not having seen the massive amount of interaction with other students/professors to successfully pull off a math phd

Oh, gee, I wonder.

Not sure what tgey did with A as the partial fractions bit shpuld be -1/2 , but they ignore this? Will have a go at solving soon

Also how can a photon travel at all if you can't divide by zero?

>lowercase e for energy

Because that's an equation which is only valid for zero velocity. The proper equation is
[math]\displaystyle E=\frac{mc^2}{\sqrt{1-\beta^2}}[/math]
where [math]\beta[/math] is the velocity relative to the speed of light. Solving for the velocity, you find
[math]v=c\sqrt{1-(mc^2/E)^2}[/math] which approaches the speed of light asymptotically as the energy becomes large.

>>8568597
Excuse my failure to use in-line latex. Beta is v/c.

>>8568587
Again, because you're not seeing the full picture. Mass isn't properly defined for that situation, but momentum is.

>>8567810
We will never travel faster than light in the usual notion of what it means to travel a distance. But the fact is that GR predicts spacetime can warp, it is non unreasonable to guess with a theory of quantum gravity we may be able to figure out a way to "shortcut" distances through warped regions of spacetime.

how about going to bed a stay in it until you sleep at reasonable times

get fucked up on benzos senpai lmao

There is, it's called meditation

Your body is refusing to let you sleep for a reason. Stop running from yourself and sleep will come

قال تعالى: (أَوَلَمْ يَرَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَنَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ كَانَتَا رَتْقًا فَفَتَقْنَاهُمَا ۖ وَجَعَلْنَا مِنَ الْمَاءِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ حَيٍّ ۖ أَفَلَا يُؤْمِنُونَ) سورة الأنبياء، آية ٣٠

Cyclic or oscillating universe model is unlikely. It is much more likely that we live in an expanding universe that will never return to its original state.

The Big Bang is mysterious because people say time was created during it, so it's pointless to talk about what happened before the Big Bang, but that just claims that it is incomprehensible. There are other theories that use imaginary time to explain what happened in the universes "earlier" states.

We honestly don't know shit, and we may never know.

Religion shouldn't be something that is forced upon you, it should be something that you want to join because it makes you happy.

Religion is a fucking game anyways, dozens of religions exists, and who is to say that mine is better than yours?

If it bothers you so much, think about a task, set a time table with milestones and start working on it.

You can't treat d/dx as a fraction dumbass.

I don't know OP why not crack open a real analysis textbook and find out.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as calculus, is in fact, real analysis, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Undefined control sequence \leqslant-analysis. Calculus is not a branch of mathematics unto itself, but rather another application of a fully functioning analysis made useful by topology, measure theory and vital R-related properties comprising a full number field as defined by pure mathematics.

Many mathematics students and professors use applications of real analysis every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the application of real analysis which is widely used today is often called "Calculus", and many of its users are not aware that it is merely a part of real analysis, developed by the Nicolas Bourbaki group.

There really is a calculus, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the field they use. Calculus is the computation process: the set of rules and formulae that allow the mathematical mind to derive numerical formulae from other numerical formulae. The computation process is an essential part of a branch of mathematics, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete number field. Calculus is normally used in combination with the real number field, its topology and its measured space: the whole system is basically real numbers with analytical methods and properties added, or real analysis. All the so-called calculus problems are really problems of real analysis.

Success is not one single answer and is not the same for everyone.

Success for one person might be having children while another would see success as becoming rich.
