How do I deal with graphing outliers? Most of my data points are 0<x<1, but this one point is fucking up the graph.

There seems to be words separated by spaces and even sentences separated by periods on the vertical lines.
First look at short words. Then try to substitute some of the letters of increasingly longer words using the guesses or tries from the shorter words.

>being on STEM major
>going to classes
Why do people do this? Do you need things explained to you? Most of the time going to classes is a waste of time. You could sleep 8+ hours, and studying by yourself is more efficient than passively listening to someone for 2 hours.
I'm on my 4th semester, I've been doing pretty great with my grades and I pretty much stop going to classes like on the second week of the semester.
What do YOU do? And why?

Because I am a brainlet and need someone to hold my hand.

I don't to classes and self teach myself.
But realize that not everyone learns material the same as you and I. So quit being a asshole and worry about yourself.
>>
EE here.
For some courses I had good professors and going to the lectures was the better option.
For others the professors were not that good and I had plenty of material online, so I studied by myself.
Finally for a few of them the professors were bad and the online material wasn't good, so I had to force myself to go to classes and study by myself, and that was a pain.

So many books out there I won't read, not even my selected .PDF collection, because I'm a lazy bum.
Do you ever reach a level where you can go breeze through graduate textbooks of whatever difficulty?
I always tell myself I will eventually catch up by becoming smarter.

Ok, so you looked at the fucking sun. If you seared your eyes, you wont know for 12 hours, but they're will be some initial symptoms. Maybe your eyes hurt a little. Maybe you have a headache.Its proably over, but at least you can research before the darkness surrounds you.
IF YOU HAVE ANY SYMPTOMS, POST ITT AND KEEP US UPDATED WITH ANY DEVELOPMENTS

Level 0: No symptoms. You used proper shielding or stayed inside like a good NEET. Good Job!
Long term effects: None.
Level 1: Eye sunburn. You have a sunburn inbside your eyes. Your eye will hurt for a while.. Your vision might be temporarily blurry. It will subside.
Lorm term effects: Freckels on the inside of the eye. Increased chance of eye cancer.
Level 2: Small damage. Everything above, in addition, you will have significant trouble seeing, especially near the center of your vision. Will take longer to subside.
Long term effects: Everything above, but also small vision acuiy will be lost.
Level 3: Permanent damage. When you wake up tommorow, you will have a scrambeled part of your vision that will be completely blurry.

TREATMENT OPTIONS:
>Go to the doctor
Seemingly a good option, but the lines will be cloged with other retard with you. Further, there is nothing the doctors can do. You will be told to "wait and see," come back in a few days to get a checkout. This wont help, but it may help you feel better.
Outlook: bleak
>Stare into the Sun
Fuck it. Its over, so you may as well look at something beautiful with the last of your vision. You stare longingly at the sun. Alternatively, stare angrily. It wont help, but it will feel good.
Outlook: You blind nigga.
>Wait it out
Maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones. Who knows? Sit inside, close all of the blinds and make your room as dark a possible. Cover any affected eyes(s) with an eyepatch or similar. Wait it out.
Outlook: good.

Gene-based analyses found 536 genes significantly associated with general cognitive function; many were highly expressed in the brain, and associated with neurogenesis and dendrite gene sets. Genetic association results predicted up to 4% of general cognitive function variance in independent samples. There was significant genetic overlap between general cognitive function and information processing speed, as well as many health variables including longevity.
