What a good way for me to learn Algebra and Calculus?
I've basically forgotten everything from school except basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and some division.

I'm in Calculus I and I still don't know anything about bases. Shouldn't I have learned them by now? Is there any hope for me in future math classes?

Not even me. I may be stupid but I know more than addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

How does it feel being at the receiving end of your 'space colonization' fantasies? They do not want us, they want our planet. Can you imagine which 'technological infrastructure' it is that can be easily shut down to completely wipe out civilization as we know it and send the few that survive back to square one?

Is it true there is a HIV cure hidden somewhere?

Of course, it is that the top 1% just keep its hidden from us.
Those damn billionaires, how did they ever get the wisdom to put on condoms before having sex?
>>
>>
>>7960439
I mean, when I go to the pharmacy and ask for condoms they always tell me that condoms are for the top 1% only, and also only if you are white and male.
I am so persecuted!
Why are they hiding the cure like that?
HUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRR

Why do I feel dumber having taken anti-depressants for about a year (Zoloft)? I used to solve things so quickly, and my brain used to run so quickly, but now I just feel dead and it takes me a while to think. What's going on?

Alright fags, I'm learning math on my own -- for fun. I'm almost done with Calculus I. Which courses should I do next or even concurrently? What's the most intuitive order of maths to learn? Thanks.

Let me explain better. If you were designing a bachelors to grad level program of pure math from the ground up, which classes would you require and in what order?

Do CNS stimulants exist in nature?
or are there only mild ones? How about for someone used to amphetamines, is there just nothing in the natural world that will seem effective at this point?

what is caffeine?
>>
>>7959998
Very weak central stimulant, mostly peripheral nervous system effects. It makes your heart rate go up and slightly more talkative and that's about it, i think even nicotine is better in regards to affecting the brain.

Um.. cocaine?
It's no argument that in order to understand higher level mathematics, one must first build a strong foundation.
And any foundation is built through the process of learning.
So /sci/, what are some good foundation mathematics books?
And no, contrary to popular belief, calling a book 'too easy' that someone else posted on a Botswanian trading card collection forum doesn't make you any smarter.
However, well constructed logic retorts might help.

>pear-shaped flasks
I'm not quite sure, but it seems to be used for small samples in distillation and/or rotary evaporation.

pear-shaped flasks are more stable in ring-mounts, i'm pretty sure

What are the odds of a persona successfully swimming across the ocean to another country without drowning, or being eaten by sharks with only the assistance of a life vest and maybe some insulation to prevent hypothermia?

the odds are 1:infinity

I think people have swam the English Channel, so it's possible if the distance is short enough.
>>
The human body just doesn't have enough energy to actually make that journey. You'd die of thirst, starvation, hypothermia, or just drown before you even make it close to halfway.
