He's right. Air pollution kills thousands directly every year and we actually do something about that.
I fucking hate Trump and voted Hillary, but at least he seems to actually be in touch with industry and real STEM professionals not pop-sci eco chambers.

Why doesn't he make a high tech cure for male pattern baldness instead of wasting time with stupid ass cars?
He would help humanity, and especially the well-being, of countless more people...
It was more important for him to get his fix before doing anything else, which proves my point...

Prospective PhD student
What are some interesting research areas to go into if I like (universal) algebra and topology? Any schools to apply for (U.S. here)?
Sheaf theory looks interesting, but seems a bit esoteric.
>>
>>8466380
What about algebra and topology do you like? There is always the fine blend of the two in algebraic topology, but I'd like to know what you like specifically about the two before I can make any decent suggesstions.
>>
>>8466387
Algebra appeals to me, because I like studying structure and finding similarities in structures. The idea of homomorphisms (of all kinds) is just fascinating to me.
I can't really explain why I like topology, I guess the geometry aspect is cool. I think I like looking at it more from the point of view of a poset of open sets though.
I don't know much about algebraic topology, but the idea always seemed interesting.

ok what the fuck. can somebody provide evidence of the theory of dinosaurs being real. I never really questioned it but Ive been looking into paleontology and the entire field seems like its been built on fraud and pseudoscience from the very beginning. I'm no longer convinced that these supposed fossils belongs to """"dinosaurs"""". Could be fucking anything. No other field of modern science even comes close to the levels of fraud and intellectual laziness that exists in paleontology. Im not outright denying the existence of all fossils, but this entire dinosaur meme seems like complete bullshit to me now.
pic related never fucking happened. Ornithologists aren't even on board with the Avian Dinosaur theory. But the whole scientific community has accepted it on a retardedly low standard of proof, probably because of an inherant bias to accept something that fits so nicely into the theory of evolution. Its a total presupposition. They decided that dinosaurs turned into birds, then went out and found evidence for it after. Its a disgrace to the scientific method. The entire feathered dinosaur thing blew up after NatGeo ran a story on it probably because it let them draw pretty pictures. The theory became popsci and suddenly "evidence" for feathered dinosaurs started getting discovered left and right (mostly from China which has long been a source of fake fossils). The nature of paleontology is that it just reacts to market demand for dinosaurs. Thats why they have gotten significantly bigger over the years compared to when dinosaurs were first "discovered". They are so big now that biologists have said their skeletons couldnt even support their weight. Its total fraud. what the fuck

show me proof. The vast majority of species are built from only a couple of fossils. The only reason they reconstruct them into "dinosaurs" is because they had a working theory of "dinosaurs" before they discovered the fossils. From the very start of paleontology it has circumvented the scientific method on its most basic assumption. Now we are 170 years deep into this pseudoscience so it seems real. People in the future will mock us for believing in dinosaurs like we mock people who believe in unicorns.

How long until there will be a medication for autism?
What sort of treatment would this be / what would it do to the brain?
I'd like to try living a day being not autistic but worry it would be boring.

It could be some kind of ADHD-like medicine to cure the personality of autists and calm the fuck of their behavior, it would literally make it the "normalfag drug"
So, it won't be made in your lifetime though, with all these autism acceptance, X acceptance and Y acceptance etc. It will be more harder and harder to cure neurological stuff since the politics of today won't let you live normally since you are already "normal" to them
And i feel sorry for that guy mentioned in wikipedia that wants to cure autism since he's really sad about being a virgin and autism didn't helped him with social skills
I would do it for him desu if i was a neurologist or some psychiatrist

Are you that conceited that you think there is ANY validity OR purpose to a belief (whether or not you end up being correct) about theories which you don't understand?

Chess = Intelligence is a meme.
Chess is basically memorization at the higher levels and attempting to gain power of the middle of the board.
Honestly, it is a waste of time, but that is just my opinion.
>>
>>8477468
What about Go?
What about counting cards?
Isnt everything just memorizing at high levels? At what point are we as humans dumb enough that we have to make intelligent choices, and of those choices we make how do they reflect intelligence?
>>
>>8477441
He just remembers the chosen subject. Chess is seriously just memorization if you're playing other players that do it too, and even then knowing the counters to "random" moves is just memorization as well.
Wow. So intelligent!
