I think I see where you're heading with this.

Why do patients who suffer from a palsy of the biting muscles (like car crash victims) experience a shortening in interpupillary distance?

Can interpupillary distance be widened by strengthening the biting muscles?

Pure math here. Don't have autism. I would say about 1/5th of my undergrad math cohort had some form of autism. In grad school that dropped to just a few.

I think physics has the most autists because it's theoretical wankery but to them it "has a point". Sperglords can't understand the beauty in math for math's sake.

>high-functioning autistic spectrum disorder?

If this were to be true then that is a misnomer and should be renamed to 'average-functioning and smart but lazy-function autism'

In a classroom of 50 people you would be lucky to find a single one who is even remotely intellectually ahead of the curve, if by the curve you consider the average potato farmer.

I find mathematics interesting on a number of levels, certainly when it comes to the possibles of cryptography.

>>8162175
Do you have any theory as to why people with HFASD are lazy? Perhaps, complacency in ones abilities?

take your homework to >>>/wsr/

this isnt homework. i figured it out already but i want to see what /sci/ thinks about the question. i just think its interesting.

Well, after you finish dynamics 101, you can calculate it by yourself.

First, OP, get an idea of what "hunger" really is.
It's not your cells telling you they need energy
it's just a feeling, your body telling you to eat something, nothing more
with a bit of training you can entirely overcome that feeling but that's another story
it has nothing to do with digestion or chewing food

Nun mein Freund (als Deutscher antworte ich dir...)

I don't think most parents are capable of home-schooling. A lot negative sideeffects will be the consequences. Like, you don't really socialize with your peers, you don't have a counterpart and the most important part - nobody is checking on the quality.

It's okay in University when you know that you won't gain much out of lecture and the learning itself will be on your own part. You attend the lecture to ask questions and maybe filling gaps in your knowledge but the real learning is outside the class.
The professor gives you a outline and the exercise, repetition and so on will be in your hands.
On the other hand, the school-system is built on to teach people already in class without much self-learning. They are two differents concepts and thus you can't really compare it.


Nun, wie gesagt. In der Schule lernt man in der Klasse, während man im Studium sich so oder so sich sicher mit dem Stoff alleine beschäftigen muss. Ich glaube nicht dass die meisten Eltern oder ähnliches eine qualitative Ausbildung garantieren.
Sicherlich kann man bei uns auch einiges optimieren; allerdings ist man hier sicher, sich an ein Modell und Lerninhalte zu halten. In der Uni hat es mir auch nicht gereicht nur durch Anwesenheit irgendeine Klausur zu bestehen.

>>8161960
Oh, und wieviele Stunden lernst Du so durchschnittlich am Tag zuhause? Wie siehst Du das so im Vergleich als wenn Du die VOrlesung besuchen würdest?

>>8161960
Most of those who home school are idiots who are learning along with their children. Most of them do it for religious reasons (even Catholic schools teach evolution), and the children come out of it weird because of their lack of socialization.

jesus christ go see a doctor ffs

1. Mathematical signal processing.
2. Maybe 3-5 papers for a 4 year PhD and then you need both MSc and BSc to even start it. Not very uncommon those 4 years become 5, 6 or even more.

A calculator?

What are you even trying to say?

nitrogen oxides get produced, which are toxic.

That's it? The only reason?
I mean CO sure is toxic + a shitload of other nasty stuff gets produced when burning coal, but they come up with a way for filtering it

Any fucking number you want. Literally any number.
Kill yourself.

It amazes me how many intelligent people talk about going to mars, and hoping to live out their life and die on mars.

Why not terraform the Sahara Desert? Or the North Pole? Or the Marianas Trench (or whatever it's called). All of those would be easier and would accomplish something.

Elon Musk should just shut the fuck up and load a winnebago with whatever he likes, and drive out into the Sahara until he runs out of gas. At that point, the only assistance would be some other suicidal freak in another winnebago under the same rules. No rescue operations permitted, same as it would be if Elon got his dream come true and went to mars.

>Why do people want to do things I don't want to do?

>People should just do what I think they should do

>People shouldn't spread out among the stars because there's plenty of places here on Earth to live

>terriforming and colonizing an alien planet is pointless, but building an underwater city in the darkest, most pressurized place on Earth is a worthy endeaver.

Honestly anon, I agree that trying to terriform our deserts is something worth doing as practice, but only for prepping for the real journey of Mars.

It's quite frankly ridiculous that you think it's ridiculous that people want to travel through space to live on another planet so they may produce the first martians.

This is the manifest destiny of our time, you either want to be apart of it or you don't and that's fine, but don't sit there and judge and act like what you decide to do with your life is anymore superior that what I decide to do with mine

Thought it would mess with the ecosystem if animals already live in those areas, I agree it would be better to just colonize and teraform every unfavorable biome in preparation for terraforming planets

Density is finite.

Light is the fastest thing possible because it has no mass.

How is density finite?

What about Black Holes?

A set is like a box. An empty set is just an empty box.

It's the collection of no distinct object(s).
Just imagine two baskets. One is empty, the other one has the element {Calculator}.
In one basket is nothing, while the other one has a Calcalator. The empty set is a collection of no objects.

More {} = A \ A.

What's left if you take everything out what you have in it.

>>8161213
>>8161215
But the box is an object whose essence can't be identical to set's. The box won't stop being a box if it's empty because it doesn't mean for a box to be box only if it contains something. The definition of set is supposedly for it to be a collection of objects. Shouldn't it be meaningful to call something a set only when there's something it's a collection of?
