What is the most /sci/ related game, and why is it Minecraft?
>>8447296
There's a bunch of /sci/ games
I like simple shit like 2048 and Sudoku since i don't want to look like a kid
>>8447296
I chose minecraft due to the fact that you can literally build giant sorting machines and simple computers using logic gates and redstone.
I ought to go back an finish my Minecraft computer one of these days.
There is talk of a reward to the first person to solve it.

Would we survive if the earth was hit by a 2 mile wide comet traveling at 200,000 km/h?
>>8447202
Anything over a kilometer is bad news bears
I don't know shit but wouldn't the location of the impact increase or decrease the risks.
Comet in the Atlantic ocean vs continental United States
>>8447202
it would be extremely destructive
You can watch Leonardo DiCaprio’s documentary on climate change for free on Youtube.

Not into gay porn, but thanks anyway.
>>8447199
It's a documentary, obviously there is a chance it will be "free"
God bless adblocks though

Nice try, but psychology isn't a science

And 50% something somebody made up riding the bus on their way to give their thesis.
hey /sci/,
What are the best Supplements for brain gains?
already knocked fish oil off the list
Ginseng tea or caffeine usually helps me.
adderall and red bull

Adderall just makes me sleepy
Maybe I need a higher dosage
Do you ever find yourself being targeted by your professor for being too smart or doing too well on your assignments?
After getting 100s over and over, I'll encounter an assignment where I get one little thing wrong and they mark me -15 for it or something.
I recently had a professor not answer my email question and then mark me wrong on it when I turned it in.
>>8446914
You are irrelevant for professors.
>>8446914
You have a shitty professor then.

In a recent test I needed to prove something and to do it I applied a theorem that needs 2 conditions to work.
The first condition was implicit in the hypothesis so I just proved that the other condition happened and then applied the theorem.
I got -5 points for not explicitly stating the other condition.
Oh well... still an A.
Look, I'm not saying I'm gonna make explosions. I just wanna know how they're made.

That's how they work.

Hey /sci/,
I took the physics GRE yesterday (for the second time). Anyone else take it? Thoughts?
I took the math gre yesterday for the first time.
Only got to answer about 60% of the questions because I needed to be thoroughly convinced my responses were correct.
Is there hope for me?
>>8446911
If it's like the GRE, and you're 100% sure of your answers, you're definitely in the clear.
For the physics GRE if you get half of answers correct your in the 85th percentile, more than good enough to get into grad school, but then the physics one is infamous... lemme check the scoring guide
>>8446920
If it's like the *Physics GRE
What would be the most useful field of science for a criminal?
Good question.
I assume you want to go large scale crimes. Surely biology wouldn't help too much. Knowing math for economics would help the most, I think.
>>8446815
Aerospace obviously
Criminology, Medical criminology etc.
Computer science/programming that sort of thing
Chemistry
Is it possible to learn and be proficient in a dozen different topics in a span of one week or two weeks?
no, however it is possible to fool people who know nothing about said topics that you do possess proficiency after one or two weeks study, and for most people, that's good enough.
>>8446737
Yeah, college students do it every 2 weeks.
>>8446737
Shut the fuck up and kill yourself.
This place is the fucking center of the universe for socially inept autists asking retarded ass questions.
>Any tips for autodidacts
>Going to learn 4 languages in 2 weeks, tips
>Hurry look what I'm about to (pretend to) do
No you fucks. No one cares about you, and you trying to seem cool to your anonymous online friends only makes you look like the dumbass you are.
Like I said just fucking kill yourself then post it online after.
I'll drop this here:

Will sentient robots go through existential crisis ?
What are we gonna do when they figure out that it's all pointless ?
>>8446656
2EZ, Just make them pre-programmed to already have that information; to keep them from wanting to conquer the universe at everything else's expense.
>it's all meaningless dood lmao
get a load of this nihilist scum
>>8446682
it's meaningless for them. because we created them to serve us and a sentient robot has no purpose other than what its propgrammed to think
Mathematics is the only thing that remains true no matter what physical laws are present, it remains true outside of time and space. So what if, since the entire universe is governed by the laws of mathematics, existence itself is just an emergent property of mathematics?
Since it requires no underlying framework to be true, what if it is the framework in itself? Can this happen without some kind of object to compute it?
The idea of an infinite universe or infinite cascading simulations doesn't make a shred of sense since there is no start or end point, but then again does there need to be in the first place?
What's /sci/'s take on this? The very fact we exist at all messes with my head.
