Is this mad monk and SENS hacks like Musk, or does he an actual chance of finding a major way to help combat ageing within our century?
>>8379299
He is certainly knowledgeable, but human negligible senescence is, and will be, a crap-shoot of differing theoretical treatments.
>>8379299
he has a good plan, and nobody has been able to disprove it in the last 10+ years
what he lacks is the proper funding to implement it.

Why is no billionaire latching on to him ?
This moggles my mind.
I mean, if i was a billionaire myself i'd focus on cyborgisation because flesh is weak, but it's not like aside from that russian billionaire it's being done either.
What the fuck is wrong with rich fucks, don't they want immortality ?
Is it a case of "i need to keep my money to buy immortality when it's there let some other fag pay for its development" ? This one at least makes some sense.
I fear it's the much more retarded "immortality is impossible gotta blow it on hoes and hookers" or even "need more 000000 never enough", though.

it checks out, I didn't get triggered at all.

Are electrons real? Or just a useful fiction that vaguely fits with quantum equations?
Tesla managed to invent radio and AC and all that stuff without invoking electrons. He didn't even believe they were real. So it seems possible to me that electrons are just some kind of phlogiston, fitting the evidence but not necessarily physical reality.
The same question could really be asked of most of the subatomic particles. But electrons are particularly interesting because they form the basis of electric, chemical and plasma theory.
What are the writings on this subject? Any good reads?
How can this thread be real if our eyes aren't real.
All evidence points to there being discrete packets of electric charge that can behave like particles and waves. We are pretty goddamn sure about the discrete part

>pop sci """news"""
doesn't say anything about what they did or how they did it, or the theory behind what they did, so it's not really anything
Any generic introductory chemistry textbook should have 5-10 pages dedicated to the discovery of the nature of electrons and the atom itself.
Is Complex Analysis a meme? I really enjoy it and I am thinking about specializing in it, but I don't want my degree to become a meme.

is there something specific you need help with? or did you just want to complain since you're too lazy to study and practice?
ayy lol I'm in the same boat midterm cumming up soon definitely acing it haha
i have 11 problems due tomorrow and right now we just started sequences and defining limits.
i am between panicking and saying fuck it and use my one time drop.
i have all 70s in my hw and everyone else is getting 90s
and i dont want to fuck up my gpa with a meem class when i could have taken intro to real and still get a job as soft eng
yes my love for learning mathematics has died because i found my limit
i did 3 math classes last semwster and i thought i could handle real analysis
wtf
>mfw there are people on sci RIGHT NOW who don't know calculus
it's not knowing that's hard. it's doing the excersises so you can recall menial shit like cos'(x^2)= cos(x^2) * (2x)
or what the trig identities are. along with their inverses.
like am i supposed to know that cos(x)=sqrt(sin(x)-1 by heart?
>>8389842
>like am i supposed to know that cos(x)=sqrt(sin(x)-1 by heart?
Why is that so hard to remember? You can remember the quadratic formula, can't you? This is even simpler.
Is this the right place to discuss fossils? I've never seen fossils/paleontology threads here, but I'm not sure /an/ would be the right place either.
Anyways, if so, just a fossil general thread.
>>8390964
usually those threads get buried under a pile of math/physics bullshit
>>8390971
Ah, that explains it. I guess I'll start by showing my collection, it's not too big but I like it.
>>8390973
I'm bored as fuck, /sci/. Give me some math problems.
Give me something that involves some calculus or something. None of this baby combinatorics shit.

Why are so many CS students so cringey?
This kid just mass mailed this out to the entire class. I seriously feel embarrassed for him.
Thank god I only have 2 more CS classes to take for my computer engineering degree, the other engineering and math students are usually more down to earth.
Post your cringiest CS student stories

i can't even wash the cringe and stupid out of my eyes.

That, plus the title, plus his threats to snitch to the prof, plus his """cool-guy""" picture at the end
I'm a cs major and there's not that much cringe in my class but I go to a pretty good school, the closest there is to cringe is talking about memes on facebook group chats (never in real life) and maybe the occasional literal neckbeard (but the neckbeards are generally pretty smart and chill people)

IQ is largely hereditary and I was unfortunately not gifted. People who were can become great men and women and discover things that benefit me and mankind. I can contribute to society in my own way and they can theirs.
Although tbqh, the fact that even at high IQ's and highly educated brackets of people political opinion is still split massively from spectrum to spectrum shows that even they are motivated by base human instincts and not above irrational thinking.
