what to fuck do u see there is simple a spaceblimp
the total information why it is better than a spacecraft is on my side-for sure not u side
http://nwgg.de/index.html
yes that why nwgg is there and yes it is german-come on u know only stupids fly with rockets-that is suicide-the only way is with a blimp pulled by a satellite into space

and also the first female on the moon dont use a rocket or space x scum as u can see in the other video

Multiplying by a matrix then multiplying by it's inverse yields the original result. You're basically doing a transformation to a different coordinate system then transforming back.
>>
>>8515061
but that would mean that all similar matrices are just the same matrix, right? That's obviously not true.

A is similar to B if there exists an S for which the following holds true

A = S^-1 B S

No, that would mean that all similar matrices have the same set of eigenvalues, which is true (the original image is the proof of that).

Duke and Young jumped in their moon rover and drove 5km to House Rock. They find a pyramid rock. It has a Maltese Cross on the side. Below this is an ornate "shrine". On the top shelf of the shrine is a box. I had noticed Young touch something as he walked by. Duke actually grabs the box, rips it out with all those wires attached, then struggles to get it in a sample bag. Young ask, "did you get it"?"., Duke says," I can't believe this ". Young wants to leave immediately, which they do. Since I first posted this find NASA has removed that section from their video. I happen to have an old copy.

My question is" what is it "?

Please post if you can see the" shrine" below the Maltese Cross and the metal box sitting on the shelf? This is the best I could clean it. You may need to scroll down and enlarge a bit. Too much looses the image integrity.

Do you see what I noticed Duke and Young acting weird over?

The question is whether even with poor quality image and my poor resources for sharing, I asked posters if they have an idea what this wired box may be on the moon in 1972. How in the hell could a wired box on the moon, recovered by NASA, not be science?

Is it a lunch box? or could it be electronics, considering the wiring, that may have something to do with science.

Is it true that cathode rays can cause decomposing of the atmosphere through which they pass? The theory is that under the action of these rays, the elements of the atmosphere revert to their etheric state. Thus creating a pressure difference and making the aircraft 'lift' off the ground.

Is this realistic?

I think with a 'Lenard Window' (small window made of thin aluminium) the cathode ray can escape the tube. Don't know it does anything to the air surrounding the aluminium though...

don't know if troll or not.

"cathode rays" are just electrons. They don't really travel very far in air, and they can't really do anything but ionize it.

not a very intelligent post on your part, as you do not state your current math skill level or your completed math courses
you call yourself a cs grad but then you ask how much of cs depends on math
you should be able to answer your own question

at most schools you would take calc 1-2, linear algebra, discrete math - this is the minimum
normally you would also take any calc based prob/stats course
if you have taken all this then any relevant math is covered in the cs courses

you can start with patrickjmt for discrete and this

Are lucid dreams /sci/ ? What do you think of pic related and the dream research?

>dream research
Please go on. Bumping for interest.
>>
After I had written the theme I continued to be curious, and I kept practicing this watching myself as I went to sleep. One night, while I was having a dream, I realized I was observing myself in the dream. I had gotten all the way down into the sleep itself!

In the first part of the dream I'm on top of a train and we're approaching a tunnel. I get scared, pull myself down, and we go into the tunnel-- whoosh! I say to myself, "So you can get the feeling of fear, and you can hear the sound change when you go into the tunnel." I also noticed that I could see colors. Some people had said that you dream in black and white, but no, I was dreaming in color.

By this time I was inside one of the train cars, and I can feel the train lurching about. I say to myself, "So you can get kinesthetic feelings in a dream." I walk with some difficulty down to the end of the car, and I see a big window, like a store window. Behind it there are-not mannequins, but three live girls in bathing suits, and they look pretty good!

I continue walking into the next car, hanging onto the straps overhead as I go, when I say to myself, "Hey! It would be interesting to get excited-- sexually--so I think I'll go back into the other car." I discovered that I could turn around, and walk back through the t rain--I could control the direction of my dream. I get back to the car with the special window, and I see three old guys playing violins--but they turned back into girls! So I could modify the direction of my dream, but not perfectly.

Well, I began to get excited, intellectually as well as sexually, saying things like, "Wow! It's working!" and I woke up.

I made some other observations while dreaming. Apart from always asking myself, "Am I really dreaming in color?" I wondered, "How accurately do you see something?"

are dual degrees a meme /sci/?

Hol up.

What if x = 0? This equation also is unspecific to whether x is positive or negative. The result has an interval of (-90, 90) and instead should have an interval of [0, 360) like it's a unit circle.

How many distinct 3-colorings of the edges of square?

I'm trying to use Burnside's Lemma but I'm not getting a natural number.

I'm getting [math]\frac{1}{8}\left ( 3^4+3+3+3+3^3+3^3+3^2+3^2 \right )=20.25[/math]

where the numbers in the parentheses (in order) are the number of configurations fixed under
1: 0 degree rotation
2. 90 degree rotation
3. 180 degree rotation
4. 270 degree rotation
5. reflection across vertical axis
6. reflection across horizontal axis
7. reflection through one diagonal
8. reflection through the other diagonal

Not sure what to do. I feel like I haven't really "earned" even the shitty grade I have right now.

Just do extra problems in the book. Math skills are like a muscle. You gotta practice.
>>
I'm sorry you're in this pickle. I'm not a math expert and I'm only here to learn and see what I can find as well. My only reccomendation is going to the biggest book store in your area (or at least preffered) and find some science and math books. I know on vacation I found a "Books a Million" store with all sorts of cheap science and math books all under 20 bucks a piece. I know this price kicks the shit outta college mandated, although I can't confirm any of that would have what you're looking for. I'd say the best way to understand the math is practice problems. Tweak equations, test the math's limits, take into account contradictory evidence, repeat until satisfied. Best I can offer since tutors who give a fuck aren't around.
>>
>>8514057
1) Practice more.
2) Focus on understanding stuff instead of memorizing how to do particular textbook problems.
3) Practice more.

Jacob Lurie is the opposite: I had never met him, or even seen him, and had absolutely no chance of understanding anything he would say, so I was going for the sole purpose of gawping.

Is this true?
If so then is there a point in getting into math anymore?
