Does notbsay you cannot connect between nodes, therefore rather easy, all 3 connect to one node, then that node connects to second, which connects to third

you know this isnt a real thing, right? its just glass that is partially mirrored, and when the room on one side of the mirror is brighter than the other, it's really hard to see from the bright side to the dark side

If there are alternate universes which have different fundamental constants such as c, is it possible that pi could be different? what would this look like?

well yes but if c was different then all of the other fundamental constants would probably be different as well.

c changes in water but circles are still circles bcuz pi = 3.1..

Not at all necessarily all it would change is any equation with c factored in

You have to understand that even if it was affordable for an individual to manufacture MEMS you'd still have to deal with scaling effects. So it's unlikely an individual would have much use for them at this point.

Why aren't non STEM degrees not obligated to have one class teaching about the scientific method? Fuck it, even STEM degrees should.

There are people in my country that aren't exposed to science (only math) since they were 15yo (9th grade). The amount of stupid shit people believe is retarded, and I'm pretty sure every stupid belief they have is because they don't understand the scientific method.

Even a girl in my biology degree, believes in stupid shit. Like chemtrails for example, she spams facebook with that shit. How are these people allowed in a STEM field in the first place? I've linked her a video, where a guy has a book ON FUCKING CLOUDS explaining and debunking chemtrails. She said it was a good opinion.

TL;DR - Give me a good reason why people in non STEM fields shouldn't have a class explaining the scientific method in depth.

Because college doesn't make you smarter. It just gives you more information.

read any philosophy of science work and you'll find out that the scientific method is fundamentally flawed
>>
>>7958555
A big part of college is learning to evaluate and learn things yourself. What OP is suggesting would be useful in that context.

So what are all you guys thinking of doing instead of maths and science when DeepMind will be better at all logic based industrial applications within the next 10-15 years?

Obviously the only place where it will be terrible is at social areas of work, so I'm thinking of perhaps studying to get into social work as this will be much harder to automate. I also read recently that a fair amount of business requires soft social skills and that the analytical component is not nearly as determinant in how much you are paid in the long term.

So, now that STEM is a dead end, how are you planning on getting into social studies where the real earners will be?

lol, ML programmers and CS types are going to be the only ones with jobs in 20-30 years

just lel if you think all those 'soft skills' aren't going to be trivial for a machine to mimic. A machine is going to be wittier, more pleasant and more engaging than you with access to the world's knowledge. What makes you think you can compete?

Hello /sci/,

>a fluorapatite-like remineralised veneer is formed over the remaining surface of the enamel; this veneer is much more acid-resistant than the original hydroxyapatite, and is formed more quickly than ordinary remineralised enamel would be.

If after brushing my teeth, i put some toothpaste in my mouther and keep if for a few minutes instead of direct rincing, do you think it'll speed remineralisation up?

There's a better way, there are fluoride products made exactly for that reason. Ask your dentist about them.

Nice thanks.

>>7958208
What does remineralisation even mean?
for what I know you can't regenerate enamel (at least not faster than you'll lose even with best hygiene in thi whole Indian country)

Does it harden the teeth?

>an MBA gets you more pay than a PhD, for roughly 1/99999999999 the work involved in getting a PhD

What is this gay world we live in?

Anyways, math major here. Statistician seems like a comfy job to me but so are all the other math jobs except for banking stuff. I'd rather be a programmer, data scientist or actuary. Also, actuary is the highest paid STEM job that there is. It is a no brainer to go there.
>>
>>7958179
What about Quantitative Analyst positions (banking)?

Generally, I feel like Accountants are more under-supplied at the moment than Actuaries.

Also, what about a Maths Teacher + Entrepreneurship combo? You get a salary for working 75% of the year, plus it's Maths so you don't need to prepare lessons, just wing them.
>>
>>7958196
>What about Quantitative Analyst positions (banking)?

I've heard that makes a lot of money but the hours are deadly. I wouldn't sacrifice my well being when every other job I can get as a math major will pay me more than enough to sustain myself.

>Maths Teacher + Entrepreneurship combo?

The last thing I'd do is become a teacher, even considering the benefits. All of my time studying maths I've been bombarded by people who say 'Oh, so you want to be a teacher?' and I say fuck them.

I don't want them to be right, and I'll do anything to make sure that they are not. As of now, I work part time as a programmer.

And it is not only my ego, I don't want to teach retarded kids, and much less do I want to teach retarded adults.

About starting my own business, that would be pretty neat. I did a couple of retarded phone apps when I was in high school and this month they earned me 20 cents. I will definitely try to build upon that, specially after I graduate and have a lot of free time.

What do you guys think of De Broglie–Bohm theory of quantum mechanics?

I literally couldn't give less of a fuck about the interpretations of quantum mechanics, I don't care of that pisses some people off. The fact is as it stands there's no way to choose between them, they either reproduce all the predictions of QM or they don't. As far as I'm concerned this is a question for philosophers (and so should be on >>>/his/) but even then arguing over the interpretations of quantum mechanics has to be one of the most boring debates in the philosophy of science.
>>
>>7958170
it is a contextual theory, so, since most physicists are not meant reflect on their work and be critical, but just praise whatever model is popular during their studies, it bugs people off more than anything.
