its both. you'll find if you lean to either side you will be pleasently/unpleasently surprised.

Depends.

If you go to MIT for physics, you'll get an objectively better education than at the local community college because MIT can afford to hire professors that have done outstanding work in their fields, and can afford to finance research projects other than playing with educational equipment during lecture.

However, if you go to Harvard to get a degree in gender studies, it's just as garbage as if you had gotten it from Ivy Tech.

In recent years, unis have become infested with SJWs and it's really dragging down the quality of education.

Is a State University better than an community college?

People seem to be able to trivially answer yes to that question, but when you ask about State vs Ivy, suddenly their answers aren't so clear.

I'm guessing it's because they didn't get in, the bitterness is strong. Yes your shitty State school looks just as shitty to us as community colleges look to you.

Yet you'll have made friends with people who's parents are multimillionaires running most Fortune 100s, hence you'll trivially get a 6 figure job.

Remember the Canterbury, anon, the ice trade isn't as safe as you'd think it is.

>>8520266
absolutely none

The earth is a giant, almost-closed system, with energy coming in from the light from the sun and radiating out from the earth in the form of infrared light. The only way to change the temperature of the earth is to change how much energy is absorbed from the sun (reflect some of it back to space, for example) or to reduce the amount of infrared light radiating out (filling the atmosphere with certain gasses like methane or carbon dioxide, for example).

Moving around giant bits of hot and cold may have effects on the weather, but it will have absolutely no effect on the global mean temperature. This is why we are confident about climate predictions (because the system is, ultimately, very simple) and unconfident about weather predictions (not a closed system).

>>8521061
Actually if you transport vast amounts of ice cover from the North Pole in the winter the ice would reflect sunlight at southern latitudes while the open surface in the winter darkness would emit a lot of thermal infrared radiation into space and also heat the atmosphere.

The local weather men alleged that reduced ice coverage over the North Pole one winter was the direct reason their weather forecasts for that winter had failed particularly spectacularly.

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

No but seriously you should consider suicide.

pic sauce, OP

castrate yourself

no really

>could it work?
Wouldn't there be a lot of friction on the inside of the wheel?
Then, how do you even accelerate or break without rolling over?
I don't like it desu.

>>8519678
Wings

>>8519660

It could. One wheel transportation has been done before and the off center cockpit is a simple matter of balancing the weight via weights or the flaps.

However, is it practical over existing transportation? God no.

If she had stacked the binders in decreasing thicknesses I would have said yes. As it is the autism is too low, sorry.

yeah.

if whatever you are doing is not work, then do the complete opposite.

it should work then.

if you are getting girls, then just keep doing that.

>>8519082

Yes, but it's a self-defeating skill.

You can pretend to be someone you aren't and convince a few girls with low self-esteem to sleep with you but the thrill will fade and all you'll get is HPV to show for it.

Sexual intercourse is designed for propagating the best genes. Alter your genetic composition so you are better than 95% around you and you will have no problem getting laid.

wow nobody i can answer this?

you guys are dumber than i thought

Yes.

>>8518668
No. Statistical mechanics dictates that particles occupying microstates in some area will always tend toward increased entropy (statistically interpreted entropy that is), so moving towards the most even distribution possible. An open doorway provides an excellent path for suddenly energy-rich molecules to distribute across a larger area to regain equilibrium. The force against the inner-face of the door would be outweighed by the force exerted against the opposite side as a torrent of hot air rushes out and cold air from outside of the room rushes in.

Why would you like to learn stuff about fish?

>>8518418
I want to breed salmon.

It's shit. People who like it have Stockholm syndrome.

>>8517401
Broadly it's better for engineers/other and Mathematica is better suited for mathematicians but it depends on the specific task, of course.

It's not free software so it's shit.

However I cannot stand having to write portable code for both Octave and Matlab so I use it still.

Also apparently they have some really good optimised code under the hood but who knows?

deep in your own heart anon

wolfram alpha is 2.99 USD on google play store. best 3 bucks ive ever spent

>>8522313
so there is only wolfram alpha ?

>>8522160
What do you mean by 'spinning at the speed of light'.

>>8522160
Roughly the speed your mom reaches on her way to taking my dick

>>8522160
ω1 / ω2 = r2 / r1

assuming that the red one is a third of the blue one:

ω1 = 299792458 m/s
r1 = 3
r2 = 1

899386367 m/s = ω2

P=VI

Yes, it lacks a fully functional brain.

kek. Put me in the screenshot pls

>>8521753
we'll have to pay even more taxes and that still wont fix it
I wonder whats the percentage of tax collectors that deny global warming

it doesn't matter, our children will just evolve to adapt to higher co2 environments

>>8521753
No more pictures of polar bears with the newest digital photography technology you got for Christmas. Only enhanced old images of polar bears that can't look as cute as the real things.

>It seems to be quite solid actually.
I mean it seems valid. With the whole "g" thing and so on.

>>8521694
IQ scores are a fine thing
the issue is that people use them as a measurement of overall intelligence and likelihood to succeed in life
but it only measures a couple of aspects of intelligence

>>8521721
Thanks for the reply.
>but it only measures a couple of aspects of intelligence
Well IQ is supposed to measure general intelligence, called "g", right? So they sort of do claim that it is overall intelligence.
