Why is the graph on a chalkboard white on a black background when on a computer screen or piece of paper, it's black with a white background? Obviously they're opposites...

Math doesn't care about our coordinate systems or methods of drawing it.
The venn diagram has no meaning except what you assign to it. Is shaded 'marked' or is the unshaded 'marked'?
It ultimately depends on how you draw it, and in one, you seem to have done one and the opposite in the other.

Just because two statements are true doesn't mean that they are equal.

>>7910713
I'm using contraption in logic to get from the first statement to the second, they should be logically equivalent.

All non-A are B
(flip subject and predicate)
All B are non-A
(replace with term complements)
All non-B are A

Yes. I mean, they don't have to be Ph.Ds or anything but some understanding of what is going on should be required.

>>7909878
No. Personally if I was a high school math teacher and had studied analysis, it would cause me to have an autism attack to teach shitty high school calculus.

>abstract algebra
Romanian here - half of 12th year in hs is dedicated to abstract algebra, so I'd asume yes

No, he is almost certainly has an 1 or else he wouldn't offer to trade.

Even if there were 100 cards, labelled 1 to 100 and you got a 2 it would still be a stupid idea to accept the trade.

>>7909560

In that case it wouldn't tho

>When they get buried, they become hydrocarbons. But coal and oil don't have O atoms. Where does the Oxygen from the water go?
kill yourself you stupid troll.

I assume it would evaporate or leave the body during decomposition.

I'm not sure what you think coal is, but I've included a partial structure here for you with source

You forgot me, smart but lazy.

CS is popular, has perspective and is viewed by many as the road to the money, therefore it will be plagued by retards.

On the bright side, once you get to the grad school, you will meet more likeminded people, who are actually knowledgeable in the field and not cancerous.

>>7909306
valid points all

but why do you care?

>>7909166
It should be a human right, for those that can afford it of course.

>>7909166
I'm upset that future generations will be so smart that they'll effectively make us obsolete. But I recognise that it's inevitable and that a smarter human population overall is actually a good thing.

>>7909166
It would be so much better than now. People are afraid because they subconsciously think that you wouldn't let your child have the "choice" to be born like nature would have wanted to (?). This is quite clearly absolutely retarded, and I don't think that people that come into this world stupid, ugly and prone to diseases are happy because of le nature meme.

It would lower sufference and therefore hate between humans (but everyone should be able to do it; if it's only for the rich than it will only widen the gap between ubermensch and shitty poor people. This would be very very, very fucking bad).

Brainlet. Get out of my higher education REEEEEEEEEEE

If your struggling with the mechanics of it, watch Patrickjmt videos on YouTube on the stuff you need help with

Also do all of your homework. Change the numbers around. Change your trig functions from sin to cos or something. Test yourself. Get the pattern of finding a derivative.

Understanding the mechanics of it will get you far enough to pass the class. That's all. If you want to ace it, you're going to have to read your textbook and the books that the other guy above recommended.

You can certainly argue that if literature gets a department, music should get something.

it should be seperated in music theory and 'applied music' at least like art and art history are seperated.

come to think graphicdesign could be considered art theory but I guess noone bothered to make this connection

>>7908221
If fucking women studies and all of that useless crap gets their own respective departments, music should, too. Music theory is definitely not something you can entirely learn overnight.

>>7907235
Holy shit that is an interesting question.

Is a black hole even made out of matter? What are made of?
What if the matter collapses into itself to the point you can't distinguish the elementary particles? I mean, sure we can't do it anyway, but what if matter and antimatter stop differing in a fundamental way?

If not, the it's going to be a clusterfuck of insane size, considering how much energy releases the particle-antiparticle annihilation, and the masses of black holes

Picture is cal poly slo, if anyone's wondering.

>>7906752
I'm in CA as well and I'm going to assume by "state schools" you mean Cal States and not the UC system which has many top engineering programs.

I think a lot of this depends on how well the programs are regarded. Most Cal States aren't particularly impressive but SLO for instance has a good reputation in some engineering fields.

I definitely fall into the camp that thinks the quality of your peers can be hugely important and the UC's can have a big advantage here, this isn't to say there aren't some very good students at even mediocre schools though.

Research opportunities can be a mixed bag. You'll definitely have more prestigious research/advisors at UC's, but I wouldn't be surprised if you might have an easier time doing research as an undergrad early on at a Cal State vs a UC.

You also have the issue of what your plans are after undergrad. If you want to graduate with minimal dept as quickly as possible and join the workforce Cal States might be the better option. UC's will look better on grad school apps though.

If cost is a big concern you could always do what I did and go the CC route before transferring. Nothing beats that from a cost perspective but you have to be willing to deal with the hell that is CC for a few years.

Is this a dilemma you're currently facing?

>le hey 4chan I'm like totally a psychopath xD meme
you tried

Most psychopaths are aware of their condition, they just don't care and see it as an advantage. The smart ones learn how to hide it and act normal.

If they long for emotional connection then they were never psychopathic in the first place.

saging

if you want to imply such basic shit is impossible, idk what to say

go to the ER moron

Isn't mercury just very heavy, it's not poisonous, nothing bad would happen if it just touched my skin, right?

the vapor is super toxic, touching it without gloves isn't recommended, but it absorbs really slowly into the skin, you'll be k

Also touching your pencil should be aight

AI is a red herring and a double-trap, with some benefits.

Use with caution.

>>7904025
Please elaborate. Why red herring? What do you mean by double-trap?

>I-I'm not a robot

>>7904000
Nice trips, and honestly improvements in Big Data, as well as the mass adoption of it's usage, will probably be nearly as helpful for society without any of the (already infinitesimal) risk.

Also, what do you think of tensor flow?
