whats the nastiest thing you had to remove?

is it satisfying? seeing those creatures squeezed out of the skin?

How common are macroscopic parasite infections?
Are they prevalent where you are? (and which country you're at?)

Do anti-parasitic medicine work?

How do people end up diagnosing their infection?
I can't imagine a case where my doctor actually believes someone's concerns for parasitic infection. Are people overlooking potential parasitic infections? Can they go unnoticed?

No. (next time just use a search engine)

>""""""""""""function""""""""""""
It's just two functions that diverge to positive and minus infinity at a growth rate of x^3.

I'm a fucking first year CS major in complex analysis and abstract algebra. Just thought I'd inform you that you're going to lose a job to me someday.

The limit of a function f as x approaches infinity is L if for every number M > 0 there exists a number N such that for all x>N we have that |f(x)-L| < M.
For example, the limit of cosine(x) as x approaches infinity does not exist. The limit as x approaches infinity of 1/x is zero. The limit as x approaches infinity of (1+x^-1)^x is e.

it's like religion, they are entitled to have their idea of reality.
But this asshole it pissing me off. He is too narrow minded.

memes

- All objects attracts eachothers no matter how small.
- If the earth is flat, how come we don't fall of the edge?
- A spaceship not going straight up,doesn't prove the earth is flat.
- Ofcourse there are more videos of the IS.
- In the IS there is a ventilation system that collects moisture so that it won't damage the circuits. 8:08
- It's not possible to do a backflip and staying in the same position on earth without a harness.
- People have been to Antarctica.
- This guy is high as fuck, but i'll have whatever he's having.

You should know by now that it's a filthy world we live in...

Sometimes, or for the very intelligent, almost all of the time, it's best to keep to themselves what they know, what they discover and what they prove.

>>7975562
yeah, it sucks that there is no great story teller to pass time before you die


Jesus christ the level of the STEM kids...

>>7975562
Goddammit that's an awesome qoute.

That optimistic sense of progress and team work is really missing in the modern age. We've lost focus, it's all about trivial social issues today.

Yeah dude just excite the EM field and electricity appears wherever you want it to

I saw someone sucking his dick about this on facebook and got triggered.

>>7973966
he was Tesla, so i don't doubt he was telling a lie.

He probably knew it was possible one way or another, too bad he's dead and we dont have his creativty to bring this to light

>deserve

I don't quite think you understand how economics works, senpai. You don't "deserve" anything, you get what the market is willing to pay for your skills.

>>7971916
/thread

>>7971906
No.

>>7971916
Does the market understand the implications of the actions and choices made? I am not sure.

Most people will not care about R&D but expect new gizmos to materialize on the shelves. Except from when they get old, frail and ill, needing new medicine. by that time, however, it is way too late as medicine takes 15+ years to develop by which time they will be dead by their own decisions.

Not sure "deserve" is the right word. You might say the market deserves the consequences of its actions. And that is not always nice.

>geometric representations
what is this ?

>>7975012
My excuse if that is not a precise term. But what I mean is, for example, you can visualize the real number line by a graphical numberline. I specifically did not use the word visualize because even with things like 4D geometry, you can't truly visualize it, but it certainly has a geometric interpretation.

>>7975030
This is so vague it's unfalsifiable and therefor not really worth talking about.

i work at starbucks

>>7976687
I was an actual physicist (in the sense I worked in "the industry"). I can't actually tell you what I did, it's classified, but I can tell you it was with nuclear weapons and radiation detection.

Yes, I go on kooky adventures.
Zimbabwe

uh you dont really get why its called quantum at all do you

>>7973174
It's called quantum mechanics because of tradition, nothing else. It's a shit name that serves to only confuse people about the real physics going on.

>>7973157
so this one time I came to /sci/
... I saw this thread. Part of me wanted to help,

>>7974811
The solution is it's own reward.

>>7974814
Not if you don't give two shits in the first place

>>7974811
> rewards are so shitty
> rewards are orgasms

Pick one.

Here is my temporary trip btw

How do you explain the biological compulsion to meme ?

is pain a neural process in the brain? if so what process is it?

>Is the pleasure of bareback sex really worth the risk of blood clots and hormonal damage?
Yes, for women sex is the only thing that matters in their life. Women are naturally purely sexual creatures. It's their only purpose and the only reason for their existence.

T-thanks anon, this really cleared up stuff.

I'm an engineer and I have a job

Engineers should be the only ones who are allowed to call themselves mathematicians. By definition you are not a professional if you are not paid to do something in the field. Engineers who sell their software using their algorithms, services, product patents etc. are actual professionals applying math to earn a living.

By constrast you are not paid directly to publish an academic paper. At most you are paid directly to be a faculty member. You are allowed to call yourself a TEACHER, nothing more.

I used Excel a few weeks ago to plot some data from a simulation that we had to do in the Programming course and when the proffesor saw that I plotted it in Excel he said "If I were the Dean, I would have expelled you right now" (he's the Pro Dean)

It's a tool to spot crying brainlets that can't deal with reality.

not that important


t. 145 IQ, tested 3 times

>>7974515
OP here, I was tested few times, apparently I'm supposed to have 156+ IQ.

I doubt it though and consider it bullshit.

Economics is not a science. To be a science you need to be able to perform controlled experiments, which economics cannot do (artificial studies with undergrad psychology/econ students don't count).

It's the same reason why none of the social sciences are actually science.

>>7970072
Wait, /sci/ has tripfags?

Not strict science, but still incredibly useful. Same as most other humanities/social sciences, save for things like critical theory.
