I do

I mainly only like evolution. Evolution's pretty cool

Most people on here claim Biology to be a low tier science.

coffee helps things get moving.

though I heard that good coffee won't do that. but most coffee is cut with various other materials, that's what makes you shit.

>>7807795
Coffee makes me shit on command. I hear some people it does this, most people it doesn't have any effect. Nicotine does this for black people for some reason.

I don't plan out my shits, but I know to be near a bathroom if I drink coffee.

I'm just wondering if there are any potential adverse effects with this regimen.

Shitty argument. Speed is easy to measure. The smartest people in the world can't even agree on how intelligence should be defined. You're comparing counting cards with rocket science.

excellent question! after thinking about it for a while, i'd say it's because you can define some bounded subsets of Q (:= the rationals) via properties that are too "strong" in some sense for Q, i.e. using operations that Q isn't closed under.

what i mean by that is: if you characterized sets only via properties like "x being small than q" with fixed q in Q, then you wouldn't feel the need for those irrationals inbetween. but the moment you permit properties like "x*x being smaller than 2" [which is essentially the same as saying x<sqrt(2)] characterizing sets, you use language that Q wasn't constructed for. Q, as a field, is closed under addition, multiplication, and respective inverses (save 0, obviously) - but it is not closed under sqrt or limits. yet math allows to define subsets via such properties.

well, that's the best insight/perspective i can come up with, anyway.

>>7807243
This would be my train of thought, but [math]\mathbb{Z}[/math] is also not closed under operations of that sort (e.g. sqrt) yet satisfies least upper bound property.

I feel the same way some times to be honest.

Can't we at least genetically engineer some self propogating space whale or something? I don't want an undetectable chunk of metal to be our only legacy.

Kill yourself.

The Voyager probes were not created to leave the Solar System, you autismal dimwit.

i'm interested in becoming an engineering technician. it's a 2 year degree and apparently you can paid like 75k/year. thing is, can i go back and become a legit engineer? do i have to take a full program or can i get equivalency? am i forever a trade slave? i'm torn up about making money but i'm worried about my education. doing CAD stuff is nothing new to me. i want to be able to study fluid mechanics later on.

thoughts?

Don't kill yourself, world needs dumb people too. Not everyone has to work in NASA, we need burger flippers as well.

How the fuck do you even score less than 100 in that test?
80% of it was fucking obvious shits.
Well, even if the result is true, you shouldn't kill yourself. Not everyone is meant to be a scientist. You can find other job and be successful at it.
Don't listen to the /sci/ elitist.

>How the fuck do you even score less than 100 in that test?

By being in the bottom 50% of test takers.

hurrr

This

You can have an isolated zone fed with water and sunlight, and if the temperature or air pressure doesn't prevent anything, you can grow vegetables. Also you need the right fertilizers, which I'm not sure if hjuman shit alone would be enough.

Human feces often carry nasty pathogens. So if you're going to fertilize with man-manure you better use only your own.

most of it was worked out on the author's blog long before the Martian became published. One exception: the original storm could not have been strong enough to knock over the return capsule. The martian atmosphere simply isn't thick enough, even it it picked up dust and sand. They only did that in the movie and book to make an initial crisis to set up the rest of the story.

Btw im a girl :)

I don't think you understand the casimir effect. Also, they're called waveguides and are quite common.

>>7809217
IDK, what's in the methodology tab?

Yeah dude. Oxford and MIT have totally gone downhill. They're pretty much trash schools now, their degrees will be completely worthless in a few years.

>>7809217
Oxford is kind of shit for natsci and MIT isn't know for physics either only engineering.

>>7809210
Thanks for the link. Not to be ungrateful about the second part of your post, but that book isn't on there. The solution manual is, but I found that when I applied myself.

what

No.

Thread over.

>>7809081
No. The thing that keeps the speed of light exceeding c is the fundamental structure of space and time. It would be substantially more impossible to make light exceed c than it would be to draw a circle with pi exceeding 3.114159....

>>7808970
c=(b*d)/(ad+b)

>>7808970
[math]c=(a+b/d)/b[/math]

>>7808970
