What do you mean by this?

>>8499416
You can't mistake them by being dead.

these polls are taken earlier than the only poll that matters (the one on election day)

also bad methodology (statistics is mathematical but it relies on a model with subjectively chosen factors to take into account)

they were simply fake

Sampling bias

Nope, Higgs boson was pretty important.

>And, in the end, was it worth the cost?
It is on the nature of basic research that we do not know the end.

>first research run in 2010
>Has it outlived its usefulness?
short attention-span much?

Theorem: I swear it works lol

Proof:
Suppose it doesn't work.
lol that would be dumb.
Therefore it works.

Q.E.D.

t. PhD in meta mathematics and foundational mathematics

Put it under pressure, have it burn.

Dont tempt me, anon. Lately I've seriously been thinking about smashing my computer.

ritalin

your pic is right. get off 4chan and stop fucking around. i spent 6 hours studying math today. no reason you can't do the same

>>8495824

yes.

free will is physically impossible, but consciousness clearly does exist.

You are the first person to have had this spitball, and definitely the first to have posted it on /sci/.

im an RNA-world kinda guy myself

The Legend of John Von Neumann,
P. R. Halmos.

Smart but lazy folks can be either smart of dumb, but they're not lazy.

They just don't want to apply themselves for fear that they might not actually be as smart as they think.

Stay in Europe. America doesnt have any research. If they do, then its just a big competition on how shit you can go without getting your paper rejected

It's like vegan choosing from hot dogs... In swiss they have vegetables and fruits.

If you tell me how to solve them theoretically, I will tell you what's the best software.

>>8501112
bruh u gots the conditions, i gots the weed this gone be fun

Portuguese engineering universities don't bet heavily on higher level maths. So, I guess I'll wait for a kinder anon

Although I am interested in learning the theory behind the method - so if anyone is patient enough, please do explain. I've read about finite volume method? Where you discretize your space and calculate values for each individual cell, but couldn't get much farther than that

>Are my clothes deteriorating?
we're all slowly deteriorating man

>>8501041
Only if you're 30+

Everything is deteriorating all the time. When something looks like it's not deteriorating, it's because something else is just deteriorating for it.

(a+b)(a+b) = (aa + 2ab + bb)

use the stupid questions thread next time, this is algebra 1 shit

>>8501013
[eqn] \left ( \sqrt { 3x + 1 } + 2 \right ) ^2 \\ = \left ( \sqrt { 3x + 1 } + 2 \right ) \times \left ( \sqrt { 3x + 1 } + 2 \right ) [/eqn] Take the right most term [math] \sqrt { 3x + 1 } [/math] and distribute it over the both terms in the second bracket, [eqn] \left ( \sqrt { 3x + 1 } + 2 \right ) \times \left ( \sqrt { 3x + 1 } + 2 \right ) \\ = 2 \times \left ( \sqrt { 3x + 1 } \times \sqrt { 3x + 1 } + 2 \times \sqrt { 3x + 1 } \right ) [/eqn]

Simplify that then just do the same with the remaining [math] 2 [/math]

Also in future look for the "stupid questions thread (SQT)" so right now it's over >>8495521

how the hell are we supposed to know what it is if the last number looks like a fucked up 2/z?

Placebos. They're allowed to be sold with vague medical claims because it's a huge industry with lobbyists. Fake medicine is always dangerous because it confuses and demotivates people who need medicine that actually works.

They can also cause things like Hypervitaminosis because people don't realize it's possible to overdose on Vitamin A, B6, etc.

If something isn't regulated, has no oversight, it's probably bogus for the most part. Without strict regulations, most of these supplements are just a waste of money, as there's no reason to have true quality control. Not to mention many supplements do not have a strong basis in peer-reviewed studies.

My mom takes so many bullshit supplements, she dumps thousands of dollars into buying bullshit "super food" pills every single year. No matter what I do, no matter what I tell her she refuses to listen to it. Fuck this new age bullshit.

how likely is it to die from excessive consumption of minerals?

It will suck if someone on my family dies from consuming these things, but I would hope that people around them will realize how these things are dangerous and should not be approached.

Are you stupid or are you just pretending to be retarded?

>>8500901
serious question.

I do think gender traditional roles are biological.

I don't see how gender can be totally divorced from sex the way those weirdos claim. Which they say as turn around and say long hair and wearing a dress means they're a woman and you have to respect their pronouns. They're more gender adherent than CIS are ironically.

>I just had a long conversation with an old lady who graduated at MIT with a double-major in Math and she recommended these particular books. I can at least confirm she was an old white lady because she was on chegg. First, Chegg tutors being white is pretty rare. Second, she did not want to do my PDF review for me for my final while I had Indian guys messaging me who said it would take a minimum of 12 hours time to do the review step by step. Third, she said to cover up the solutions and work on the problems till your brain hurts. Lastly, she did want to setup a time for any questions I may be struggling with if any. Did I just come across an honest lady on chegg who did not want to milk me for money? Is she making $300,000k/yr. lol. She also agreed with me that professors really do not teach anymore. Literally, I probably suck at trig because I relied on MyMathLab DL

/sci/ is not your fucking blog.

>>8500846

No, no it isn't but does it hurt to give some simple advice for someone clearly struggling in life and math?

Very familiar situation like OP. I have a few wide gaps in Algebra, Geometry and Trigonometry and I was recommended Art of Problem Solving series books. Are they any good? They're pretty expensive.
