In vacuum?

>>7991458

The Big Bang was literally the opposite of a vacuum.

i dont know a lot about it sorry

Maxwell's equations.

>>7991280
There's a lot of "gravity" surrounding the theory of gravity.

HYUK HYUK HYUK ^_^

tried modafinils alot before. fuck me if i do another one

>>7991286
why? I don't see downsides so far

Didn't do a lot for me but I typically take adderall.

Well she has an Erdos number and I'm guessing you don't.

>>7987179
You misunderstand. I'm not making fun of her. I actually want a calculus book from her. I mean most math books are so damn dry.

>thinking an Erdos number justifies the blatant stupidity her books demonstrate

This is another example of the theory I'm always hammering on about: mathematical ability doesn't mean a single thing when it comes to being a smart person. There's a trap that posts here with a PhD who got into math after an insult to HIS intellect and autistically pursued the goal. Mathematics is a matter of time and dedication, any person can reach a very high level.

Just imagine publishing a book with such shameless titles and messages instead of writing papers and studying more.
Why would you choose the sellout route? Money. She's a run of the mill whore who had some mathematical talent, when she had an easier route, she took it.

>"Her books include Math Doesn't Suck, Kiss My Math, Hot X: Algebra Exposed and Girls Get Curves: Geometry Takes Shape, which encourage middle-school and high-school girls to have confidence and succeed in mathematics."

Girls can do math too XD XD

It scans you, and by scan I mean it completely destroys you. You die, case closed.

Then it transmits the 0s and 1s equivalent of you to a remote location where magic happens in a magical machine that assembles a copy of you in a magical amount of time. People will say that is the real you. But, it isn't you at all.

Here's the fun part, the being created by this copying process will think it is the real you, unless it knows how the process works. Then it will know it is merely a copy. There begins an existential crises for a being that thinks exactly like you think.

So, tell us, what would you be thinking after walking out of a teleporter, knowing that you were just born, but burn with the same shit someone else had including all their faults, skills, and history? I'd probably be a good bit mournful.

I know one thing, I'd sure as hell stay away from fucking teleportation.

Now, consider this. How about a type of teleportation that only scans your brain's neuron connections without killing you or wiping your memory and taking a sample of your DNA and sequencing it? Then it transmits this info to a remote location and clones a brand new body complete with your memories. You'd still be alive at least.

Nothing can deconstruct and recreate every subatomic particle and their properties that encompasses your entire body in the correct order and without temporal shifting.

I'm sure that teleportation is one of the things that humanity will never achieve 100% guaranteed.

"Humans have more than the commonly cited five senses. The number of senses in various categorizations ranges from 5 to more than 20. In addition to sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing, which were the senses identified by Aristotle, humans can sense balance and acceleration (equilibrioception), pain (nociception), body and limb position (proprioception or kinesthetic sense), and relative temperature (thermoception). Other senses sometimes identified are the sense of time, itching, pressure, hunger, thirst, fullness of the stomach, need to urinate, need to defecate, and blood carbon dioxide levels." -wikipedia: List of common misconceptions

>>7991910
Thermoceptors are part of touch.

>>7991935
>the sense of time

how does that work then

Are you somehow under the impression that only the most attractive people have children?

worsen as in uglier ? than maybe.

because this type of selective breeding only rewards actually pretty ones and ugly ones with money. the hideous ones whom even makeup can't fix don't get to procreate.

its kinda the same in everywhere

>they'll pass the bad traits
There is no trait that is "objectively" bad evolutionarily. There are traits that increase/have no change on or decrease fitness.

Medicine and cosmetic procedures can and have allowed traits to persist in populations that would not have survived or have existed at current proportions. It doesn't matter though since these traits don't decrease fitness and select against an individual any longer.

>but what if modern medicine disappears because of a disaster and some of these traits will decrease fitness then
Use your brain, friend. :)

Alien life can't exist.

I just said it OP. You can deposit my 5 shekels in my paypal.

>>7991199
The fact we exist simply means extraterrestrial life is "likely"

>Prove me wrong.
Eat a dick you fedora tipping piece of shit

>nobody can say alien life can't exist.
That's a pretty low bar, Opie.

Some divide by zero nonsense

False equivalency

>>7991136
(a-b)=0
You can't divide by zero which is where the problem arises.

>implying you can perform arithmetic operations on infinity
underage pls go

>>7989597
No.

>>7989597
What do those first two equal then, if not infinity?

>>7987611
No not necessarily, many of our genes are still the same more or less as we've had since being single-cell organisms. And there is no point.

>>7987616
Actually speaking of being single-celled, mitochondria used to be free single celled organisms but we've co-opted them to produce energy for us.

>/g/ didn't seem impressed.

Quadcopters aren't particularly good helicopters.

>>7987265
technically it's not "quad" since there's 18 of them.

but the thing practically flies itself. how is that not a good thing?

>>7987271
what advatages does it offer?
because I ai't seeing it.

I feel that it is a real scientific field with merit as schizophrenia and depression, for instance are real conditions which requires sometimes long term care and medication. However, I also feel that there are a lot of biased diagnoses, influence from pharmaceutical companies and a lot of stupid people who want attention, get involved in the field, get subjectively diagnosed, and then complain about having a bunch of disorders (but they love the attention and pretending their life is so tough).

Honestly it's a disgrace to medicine and everyone knows psychiatrists are just failed MDs

>>7984603

No it isn't and you're just parroting things you've seen autists say.
