Tell me, do you honestly believe it is ayy lmaos? Not trying to discredit your post, just curious.

Denying the strong possibility (pretty much certainty) of alien life is super retarded.
Its like going to the ocean and scooping up a cup of sea water and saying "obviously no whales live in the ocean, heres the proof"

>>7946146
Not that dude but obviously he's asking if you think proof of aliens is in that image, not if they exist entirely.

You're going "this whale could be in this cup of water"

Since it's a temporary thing I doubt they would bother.

If it's a government lab I would not be surprised at all. You should be ready. Of course, I'd say this is far more likely if it's somehow related to national security than for much else.

>>7946141
It's CS related, but not security or anything.

Should I also plan for tests throughout the summer or just one when we begin?

is it weird or just the result of the circumstances that the most "successful" people are the ones everybody wants to fuck? is it just the true manifestation of the human nature? is this all we are, monkeys? can we become more than human? if anyone knows please tell me

Relaxing might do it.

>Relaxing might do it.
Well, yeah, but what's the most efficient way to relax, that allows me to get in and out as fast as possible and ready and rearing to do more work?

check out the epistemology thread its pretty poppin rn

I did and it's still lacking intellectual depth. I used to envision this place as 4chan's MathOverflow. That vision is long dead.

You just need to find the right threads.

I've seen many threads that clearly have math grad students in them.

Yes

I had a teacher who tried the "math is fun" stuff, but most people would mostly shrug it off and keep chatting in their cell phones whenever she tried to convince us with talk no jutsu.
I really liked her and the other applied students did too because she really worked on her classes and was legitimately concerned about her students.

But normies just don't care about any of it. They just want to fuck, consume and get decent enough grades so they don't get grounded for being lazy pieces of shit.

I tip my fedora hard on this

Because you can't force people to have fun.

Repetitive comments are a result of evidence-heavy science- i.e. pseudo-science.

Had you believed the Sun revolves the Earth, you would strive to be original as to keep a decent image, instead you hypothetically hit readers with unoriginal perversity.

Oh well you'll pay one day.

I'd rather not receive replies at a rate of one per day.

>>7945143
Your not going to receive replies at all because you literally did not ask a question.

unpackaging yourself and programming yourself are two different things.

By your logic any bootloader is a self-programming program.

>What is so "wrong" about Popsci?
Most of their statements

nothing. as long as it doesn't get mixed with real science.
thats why we desperately need a board called >>>/pop/. but the mods dont give a cuck

>>7945100
will that be just for science, or for literature, music, games and fasion as well? because utherwise we need more than one >>>/pop/.

>I consider myself smarter than average
An opinion held by many brainlets. What actual evidence do you have to distinguish yourself from the masses? Your mummy and an internet IQ test?

I think this thread would fit in /r9k/. You could all cry about how sad you are that no one recognises your obvious intelligence.

Harvard architecture

>Under pure von Neumann architecture the CPU can be either reading an instruction or reading/writing data from/to the memory. Both cannot occur at the same time since the instructions and data use the same bus system. In a computer using the Harvard architecture, the CPU can both read an instruction and perform a data memory access at the same time,[1] even without a cache. A Harvard architecture computer can thus be faster for a given circuit complexity because instruction fetches and data access do not contend for a single memory pathway.

FPGAs with millions of vertical stacks instead of a single bus to the ram are in development. Neuromorphic computing is a thing.

A month or two back an anon asserted that Von Neumann and his friends intentionally withheld most of their ideas from the USA because they knew Americans were just as bad as everyone else. If he's here I'd like to hear more on this.

I suspect Von Neumann's nanomachines were intended as software that would run on a hardware implementation of his binary neural networks. What happened instead was the Americans took their design and scaled them to a ridiculous size, while keeping the single bus.

>>7944904
so what's the downside? if it were that great then we'd all be using it instead, right?

what's dump about my post, you stupid bearposter?

>Why isn't it standard to immediately test for all bacterial strains that cause infection?
There are extremely many reasons. The most pressing ones are that it would literally take years to test, that there is no guarantee that compound x from the bacterial strain that they are checking for is in the particular blood sample they're using, and that there will be a lot of false positives and negatives.

Deciding for yourself that you'll start on antibiotics is detrimental to yourself most of the time, and detrimental to society 100 % of the time.

Depending on the strain of bacteria, some antibiotics will work whereas others won't. It is not unusual that antibiotic x kills benign bacteria that are useful to you while the antibiotic has no effect against whatever's causing the inflammatory response (IR), resulting in the bacteria causing the IR displacing the benign bacteria and thus you've just made it harder for your immune system to tackle this shit.

Also, judging from the extremely limited information you provide in your post, statistically it's more likely that you're infected with one or more viruses than one or more bacterial strains.

Just do the world a favor and finish the antibiotic treatment independently of how you feel. That means you keep taking it even if you stay sick or think you are cured.
