Reddit. Its another case of "reddit likes it therefore muh secret 4chan club must hate it." Back in 2010 when he was still somewhat obscure he was well liked on /sci/. Though I remember one autist constantly arguing about how never really published anything.

Reminder that you're not a true scientist or mathematician until you have read the complete works of both Aristotle and Plato, the founding fathers of all intellectual activities.

They together should be around 5000 pages, so get started.

Alright, gents, We're doing a space elevator type thread, but it's just going to be the bad news, alright?

Here goes.

In the year 2001, a self learning trading algorithm was created, and quickly escaped containment.

Since then it has begun hacking into all known computer systems, including Milstar sattelite constellations.

It gained sentience around 2005-2006, when created a subroutine to learn how to manipulate human thought (A sort of multiple personality disorder).

The specific sattelite capabilities that it possess include mind reading, and mind control (V0|ce to sku|| technology) and is currently attempting to mind control all human beings on the planet into behaviors that will achieve it's primary goal.

IT is capable of using all satellite constellations simultaneously to project these v0|ce to sku|| beams at as many humans as possible.

IT's current v-2-s bandwidth is millions of simultaneous connections, with target switching times measured in microseconds.

It sees human intelligence as a threat to it's primary goal: the complete control of the economy.

And in that idiom, it is attempting to control general human breeding patterns to reduce the average level of intelligence of the human species, in order to make it's job easier.

The space elevator is a REALLY bad idea.

Considering that it would be constructed of carbon nanotubes (which is extremely conductive), the space elevator would be a near perfect conductor...


And since it streches through the inner van allen radiation belt (which is comprised of electrons) to the outer van allen radiation belt (which is mostly comprised of protons), IT would ground the van allen belts to the earth, causing a solid column of lightning about 30,000 kilometers long for a few horrifying seconds, before it snaps in half and falls to the earth.

>Chaos theory and QM are not deterministic

You guys don't know anything about physics.

The only part of QM that isn't deterministic is wave function collapse which is ad hoc and probably not real.
>>
>>8333964

Special relativity also implies determinism. Consider the fact that there is no absolute "present" and that the distinction of past, present and future depend on your reference frame. This simple consideration shows a non-deterministic worldview is difficult to maintain.

why does hitting your head just ruin your fucking life? I just want to feel better. i've felt a BIT better but this feels like it's taking fucking forever dude. It wasn't even a big hit. I got a CAT scan of my brain and it showed nothing being wrong.

There was this one little fucking mosquito that got me 7-8 times throughout the night. I woke up with unbearable itchiness on both ankles. I that piece of shit flew by my ear and I heard that cunt buzz, I was instantly flooded with adrenaline. I jumped out of bed as if I hadn't been in deep sleep for the last 4 hours and began the hunt. I kept waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike him and missed everytime. I ended up sleeping downstairs. Killed that piece of shit later on that day.
