I'm sick of seeing intelligent people abusing those who are unintelligent. I think it's time have a revolution so everyone can enjoy the benefits of being a great mathematician or scientist and not be limited by their capacity to think. Deep inside we all know it’s true but we hide it and oppose it. Some do so because they fear the competition it will bring them and some because they don’t want to change. I am not very intelligent but I'm just a temporary vessel for my genes. I’ll show the world what I can do, maybe not this generation, but the next.

What is the better option for me to use to have intelligent children (capable of doing upper level mathematics well)?

Being a mathematician or scientist is shitty work + shitty pay + shitty hours + you have to spend a lot of time lecturing fucking undergrads and begging for grants.

If you want to learn then do it. The only thing holding you back is that many of the textbooks out there are at best adequate and designed to only be used alongside a lecture. However with great motivation and a proper schedule you too can become educated.

All that said, it isn't really likely to make you happier or fulfilled. Decide for yourself what really matters. Forget about this intelligence ego trip and find your own sliver of happiness.

Why not get a fulltime job and do your Ph.D while working a real job?

OK it will take you 6 years instead of 3-4 but you will have a much higher income, job experience, and you don't have to correct hundreds of student assignment for peanuts.

Why does nobody do this? Is it just out of laziness (gov funding is enough to live on).

coz its probably hard and stressful?
>>
>>8517991

It doesn't have to be stressful. You can take as long as you want. Work at it slowly.

If you have a solid income, what's the rush for?

My reasoning is based on the observation that Ph.Ds don't seem to have all that much time to work on their thesis either, what with all the extra stuff they have to do. It's like the thesis is an afterthought in between their "real" duties.

hello /sci/
can you help me
i want to know more about different races and the shapes of their skulls. i find this topic fascinating.
I know its all taboo and the nazis were all measuring peoples heads and shit and everyone got offended by it.
I have lost a lot of friends bringing it up casually and nobody wants to discuss it.
I tried looking online but i don't trust much stuff because it all seems to be written by nazis
i went to the library to find a book but the librarian asked me to leave after i explained what i was looking for.
I'm starting to doubt now about the skulls because everone is telling me i'm racist but nobody seems to argue that black people are afraid of swimming because their bones are more dense.
I don't understand how it's racist to say the skull is a different shape but not racist to say the bones are different densities.

tl:dr; is there a book i can buy that is written by a credible and respected doctor of actual medicine or something about all different bones and skull shapes and things like that e.g. if you found a skeleton how do they know the guy was black or chinese etc.

thanks for your time.

There are different skull shapes but due to heavy mixing between races both past and present, trying to make a blanket statement about a race really isn't possible. Two families of different races with similar height can be more related genetically than two families of differing heights in the same race.

You can look into it, but its a honestly dead end filled with stormweenies who swear they're onto something. You're not going to find anything new or applicable to the global population at large.
>>
>>8517999
when they find a dead guy on csi how do they know its a black guy then
and look without trying to sound racist or anything black people do have different shaped skulls have you ever looked at a black person sideways on? i'm not trying to be derogatory i'm just saying thats my experience they look totally different shape

Try to find physical anthropology books. Or forensics books.

>>
>>8517911
Well first, for any x you have sin(x) = sin(x + 2kpi), so sin(x-90) = sin(x - 90 + 2kpi)

So basically you can already simplify it a bit.

Then you have cos(x)*sin(x), which is sin(2x) - cos(x)*sin(x)
>>
>>8517911
does that have cos(x-90) or cos(x * 90) in the denominator

Overqualification is real problem
It's strange that this guy, if he had a doctorate, didn't build the contacts to get a job in the field.

He could also very well have taken a job of teacher, instead of a call centre.
>>
>>8517899
>Overqualification is real problem

That's not the problem at all. He decided to do a Ph.D at a not very good university, then compounded that by not being able to get it (or any part of it, or even any other research) published, now that's his problem.

Groups are the basics of much of algebra.

Linear algebra if you have not studied it before. It will be helpful for practical calculations.
