Would it be possible to explore any of the gas giants by some sort of manned outpost that floats above the clouds, or would the gravity be too strong and crush humans to paste?
73 posts and 13 images submitted.

24.79 m/s^2 is the gravity on Jupiter, compared to 9.8m/s^2 on Earth.

The distance to Jupiter is 588 million km and the furthest manned mission was 400,171 km.


so yeah, won't be possible anytime soon. I'm sure technology will keep cracking at it though 'till it happens one day.

Are there any medical students/residents/doctors that can talk about what sucks and what's great about becoming a physician?
85 posts and 11 images submitted.

>>8322771

>Sucks

Surrounded by vapid cunts who went into medicine for the wrong reasons. Most do it for money I don't care what anyone says. A lot of doctors are shitty people who boast about their status and don't give a shit about others. I am going to pick a low paying, miserable depressing specialty to differentiate myself from these people.

Heavy work load/a lot of memorization

If you go overseas it is difficult to come back as an IMG.

Expensive

Depending on specialty chosen residency can be very sleep depriving.

Patients can be fucking assholes sometimes.

>Great

Sense of purpose/gives your life meaning

Job stability

You can fail, not get residency if you go overseas, etc. Cost is always something you need to consider.

The problem is that Ramanujan contributed to nothing, except the pi-formula.

He was a genius, but it was useless : he didn't prove any valuable theorem or lemma.

A 20/100 mathematician is more useful to the maths than the 100/100 Ramanujan.
>>
He was just too intelligent for humanity.

In the last ~500 years, there have probably been 5 people who could be considered his intellectual peer.

Newton, Gauss, Neumann, Oiler...

His genius wasnt nurtured, and instead when he was discovered, it was by a brainlet who was obsessed with brainlet-crutches like proofs and rigor.

He stunted Ramanujan's short mathematical career and stifled his creative mind with such mundane trivialities.

Ramanujan would have been better off just staying in india where no brainlets who at best possessed IQs in the 160 range could taint his mind.

I'm so fucking sick and tired of this shit man
I'm in my 2nd year of electrical engineering and I hate it, the material is stale and boring

My dream is to work in the pharmaceutical drug chemistry lines of work

I could right now drop all my classes and refund them and apply for pharma chem at the university I'd love to go to but it would turn my life upside down.

Is my best option finishing up two (perhaps 3) more semesters of EE to get my associates degree and then go to study pharma chem or just drop and apply now?

I'd be losing money at first but I really don't give a fuck. I pay for it all myself so I don't feel guilty. I just don't wanna go through years or circuitry and programming. I'll somehow figure out how to pay for all of this.

I so fucking wanna do it so bad but I'm incredibly conflicted, pls help dudes, pls help me apply and transfer to a new school wit:

You basically isolate each variable and then solve for each variable algebraically

get it in reduced row echelon form

from there the solution should be trivial

8. N,N-Dimethyltryptamine?

Hmmm? We also have other chemicals activating brain receptors. What if the brain produce Cannabinoid in the brain by itself in the future? I'm just wondering

The brain does produce cannibinoids, why do you think we have receptors for them?

Non Agfags may not care but the seed destroyer could be a game changer in controlling pesticide resistance. They claim it can destroy up to 99.5% of seeds in field which would greatly reduce the need for herbicide application

This would be good for organic farming, making it even cheaper to produce.

We need to start going to an all organic farming model.

Eh my dad is an organic farmer, and while our current agricultural system is not sustainable, using pesticides, fertilizers and gmos are a much wiser use of petroleum than organic farming, at least for field crops. You have to till up soil 2 to 3 times before you seed to control weeds, using up more fuel for a lower yield. Theres organic practices like crop rotation that could be incorporated to conventional farming, sure, but organic farming is getting a free pass.

But hey, the uptick in organic demand has been good for my family. If you ever ate pic related, you probably had some of my dads organic wheat and help pay for my college tuition
