Ganymede confirmed for most qt moon

I am no medical doctor but have been involved in sports for a while. Vitamin supplements are rarely needed by the average person with a balanced diet. They're most effective when a person cannot get all that he needs and thus starts experiencing negative symptoms (hair fall, oily skin, anxiety and all kinds of stuff depending on the vitamin missing). On the other hand, supplementing with them when not needed may lead to a condition called hypervitaminosis which is really bad. What happens is that some vitamins are fat-soluble (they dissolve only in fat) and thus remain in the body for long. So if you have a lot of them that are not needed, they will remain in your body and eventually the buildup will become toxic. The vitamins that are water-soluble are just discarded when pissing.

They are helpful if your diet is poor. Otherwise it's probably better to get your vitamins from whole minimally processed foods unless you have a specific condition where megadosing is indicated like abetalipoproteinemia.

>Can they even be harmful?
Yes, supplementary vitamin C for example can have a pro-oxidant effect and impair some of the adaptations to exercise.

>How effective are vitamin supplements really?
Your body will not absorb all of the vitamins/nnutrients/whateveryou'retaking that are in the supplement.
Your body will absorb almost all of whatever from your food.

Supplements with a shit diet are better than a supplement-less shit diet though.


>Can they even be harmful?
Yes, if you over does.
Which is usually pretty hard to do.
Be careful though, depending on what you're overdosing on things can get nasty.

Evolution is a meme, stop pushing it - it's fucking 2016... you're not even hilarious when you talk about it - it's mainly cringy.

>What is it about evolution in particular that makes idiots lose their minds? I don't understand. Can /sci/ maybe help me see it? Why do so many worship it?

It's due to conflicting worldviews. What's weird is that people didn't have a problem with it when it pertained to animals only, but once humans entered the mix, then people got a little "concerned."

you remember how to take the integral of basic functions right? that and some trig integration/substitution is probably all you'll need to get started in a diffEQ course.

Do some review nerd.

It's impossible to have all of your parents DNA.

That is what I assumed was the norm.

>And I don't want to talk to a /sci/entist, 'cause y'all motherfuckers lying, and getting me pissed.

think of it like this. If you deny it, your peers will look at you like you're a fucking retard. you don't want to look like a fucking retard. so, intuitively, you should accept it.

have you tried arnol'd topological proof? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhpVSV6iCko

You just have to look at N-th roots differently. N-th roots are solutions to polynomials of the form:

x^n + a

Quintic equations (and beyond) just happen to have roots that can't be expressed via these numbers. But iyou can solve them if you use numbers that are the solutions of these polynomials:

x^5 + x + a
(See: Bring radicals)

There's no insolvability here. It's just that not every algebraic number can be expressed as the root of some "x^n + a" polynomial. Big fucking deal...

you lack the most basic understanding of DNA inheritance, which makes me think you are either a) a high-schooler or b) /pol/

>Centrifugal force meme

It's not a real force bro. Projectile velocity would be tangential to the magazine, so at least you must put the barrel to the side, not the front.
Also imagine this thing rotating with 10000 rpm; what happens when you release a projectile and the whole thing goes to imbalance? Big fucking crash.

>>8115891
>Would this work?
Someone did a short calculation and realized it needs something like ten megawatt to provide those figures.

Depends. If you're really flowing well and learning quickly while doing one course, you should carry on with that until you get stuck. Then, when you get stuck, think about it for a small time and if you still don't get it, make a note of your thoughts and change course. Continue in the same loop.

Popsci must die.

>>8115762
It's not meant to be a lecture. It's meant to engage viewers to get them into science. Not all pop sci is bad.

Except Niel smokeDeGrasse Tyson who should die in a fire.

That book is pretty difficult, OP. If you're simply trying to learn calculus, look elsewhere. If you're interested in real analysis, then that's a good choice.

>>8115773
Any suggestions?

>>8115644
Yes, but I don't think its possible to study math for 6 hours a day every day for a year. Not for the average person anyways.

You don't really need to know too much. You can skip any trig, calc, and geometry you run into, probably.

>>8115644

Just buy a basic book and start there before you worry about doing 6 hours a day for a year.

I'm an engineering student. For me math is just like anything else, if you're smart enough to read intellectual books you should be smart enough to learn math.

Studying mathematics(and everything basically) is all about splitting up bigger problems into smaller, easier ones.

The first time you read a subject it will be difficult to understand, let it rest a little bit and come back and it should be easier, then continue untill you master it.

You really don't need to be that smart to understand mathematics. Solving actual problems is another issue ofcourse which often does require more intelligence.

I encourage every type of learning, it doesn't even matter which subject. But math should be the best thing to learn since its the basic of every serious science and it helps analytical thinking. Good luck and start studying I'd say.

wehn you add 0.999... to 0 it becomes 1

Adding 0 to 0.999... Still makes it 0.999...

in (R, +) the following is true:
for all x in R, 0+x=x
Let x=0999...
Therefore 0+0.999...=0.999..
But 0.999..=1
therefore 0+0.999...=1 QED
