>The most immediate of Titor's predictions was of an upcoming civil war in the United States having to do with "order and rights".[9] He described it as beginning with civil unrest surrounding the presidential election of that year. This civil conflict that he characterized as "having a Waco type event every month that steadily gets worse"[10] would be "pretty much at everyone's doorstep"

I got a 35 and I wanna kill myself. That was the easiest test ever. I can't believe I didn't get a perfect. I know people who are basically retarded who got over 30.

And yet the average is only 21 and I know people who've gotten like 12.

Is this not proof that people should just kill themselves? I'm pretty much the class clown. The poor kid who everyone thinks is dumb because I just have that sort of inbred look poor people get.

Our whole society is built on a supposition that things make sense. It is not even conscious, but it's generally assumed that while we don't live in a meritocracy, the cream eventually floats to the top.

But the fact that an idiot such as myself can score so high on a test that is basically for retards and yet retards still fail.. I guess my one area of limited aptitude is understanding how the fuck this could even happen.

And since I was told years ago that I was too poor for a good school, which I just found out was fuckin wrong, I didn't try any harder than I needed to. I have a pretty decent scholarship to a decent state school but fuck I can hardly look at people sometimes. The arrogance of people who aren't fit to wipe my ass yet think they're the shit despite not knowing shit because idk they had decent parents and they're in love with their reflection.

Fuck this gay earth

Why is it true? Why does it make sense? Why is it so orderly? Studying Math, I can't help but concern myself with these questions. When you think about it, Physics is ultimately an "extension" of Math. I mean, the Universe is written in a language, Math. The Universe is written in that code, those symbols of chalk on blackboards, those symbols are everything, everything is numbers. Subatomic particles that occupy no space are like the points of a Cartesian plane that also occupy no space, and everything in Physics boils down to beautiful mathematical formulas. And I think as we make more discoveries in Physics, we'll be able to connect the dots between Math and Physics, just as the fundamental particles are like points of Geometry. So Physics can exist because Math exists. Personally, I think that's beautiful and it even makes me feel love, but at the same time it begs the question, why does Math exist at all? The way I see it, Math is very complex, and there are many subjects to study in Math, like Calculus, Topology, Algebra and all else, so my guess is that these are all the twigs and branches of a big tree, and if so, what exactly is the main trunk? In other words, think of it like unfolding origami. What was the simple, initial thing that unfolded into these more complex structures of Math? Something more simple must have given birth to these complex branches, no? And why does this main trunk, whatever it is, exists? Just why does Math exist, why does it make sense, and why is it true? How come there is order in Math instead of chaos? Is it just something inevitable, naturally occurring, that just spawns into existence straight from non existence? Maybe that's the case. Tell me your wisdom.

Reality is unintuitive the closer you look at it. Look up quantum entanglement. Shit makes no fucking sense. We're probably just too retarded to grasp everything.

>>9102809
Math exists because 'it' exists.

In compute ('time') we only care if it is 1, even, or not-1-or-even

But to even do that we have to define our boundaries, which is the same as saying 'how do we define 1, in this instance?'

So our boundaries are '1', which has a unique definition of 'start of a divisor set'. So to use maths on something divisible, it has to exist. Maths cannot address 'indivisibility' because the FIRST mathematical operator you actually do is FORM THE QUESTION, which is 'defining 1' before trying to balance your equation to 0.

So the reason why maths makes sense is because it 'is' how you interact with infinity/time. If it doesn't exist then it doesn't matter, because then it is part of something outside of 'your' time.

And in truth this is the only 'true' state that can exist. Time is simply the division of 0, but to start forming equations or observations you have to somehow define '1'. So, Time = 0 / 1

Everything makes sense because you already have the number '1' to derive sense from.

Welcome to maths. It's better than religion really.

The absolute madman blackpenredpen (known in the streets as BLACKEDpenredpen) just released his first diss track, this one to wolfram alpha:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pa1AryylpM

His closing verse:
HEEEEEEEEEEEEY

LOOK AT THAT!
WOLFRAM ALPHA GIVE US 2 POINT 6 2 SOMETHING SOMETHING SOMETHING SOMETHING
PLUS ZERO POINT THREE FIVE EIGTH SEVEN SOMETHING SOMETHING SOMETHING SOMETHING I
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH
WHERE'S THE TWO, MAN?
HAHAAHAAHAHHAHA
THIS GOES OUT TO ALL MY NIGGAS IN COMPTON

So now that Wolfram has been officially destroyed what will wolfram do? Will he release a diss track against blackedpenredpen? He was basically shown that his piece of shit website can't even do proper arithmetic. Wolfram must feel like a faggot.

No, but it's not the whole story either. You could be the hardest most wetback slave worker and still fail because you don't know what's going on. In other words, you have to work to understand and develop ideas in your own way.

>>9111429
It depends. If you write a bad program and have it loop one million times, it won't get better results than a bad program that only looped ten times, meaning the amount of work performed isn't the only factor in your return on investment.

So with low skill labor being pushed out of the way on the horizon. What's going to happen to all of the people who don't have the capabilities to move on to a more technical job? When the elite no longer have need for lower class people, what's the point of keeping them around? This shit spooks me /sci/.

Photons vibrate ata frequency, and hence they carry energy.

They don't have energy in form of mass though.

Most people here can probably speed code a transpiler in under 10 minutes. I hate compsci because it's filled to the brim with brainlets like you, who get into it because they want to feel cool or make gaymes. All the important programming is done by the rest of STEM.

You faggots don't even know how your tools work. Watching a compsci fag, who doesn't even know what a pointer is, spam create a bunch of fucking Java files for every single 'object' he creates, is like watching a man who claims to be a mathematician stumble his way through drawing a bunch of shitty circles with a compass, then calling it "science".

why are burgers so calculus centric? calculus is literally nothing here. algebra and geometry are 99% of math.
I find it pretty comical whenever brugers treat calculus as the end all be all of higher math just because it looks fancier and gets taught later in their retarded school system.

slope.gif
2KB, 382x200px
I'm really confused /sci, this is a really basic question:

Why people use the trigonometric function of tangent to get the slope? Let me explain the question, the slope formula is m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), which makes sense, the tangent of the angle in this pic makes the exact same equation for the slope formula: It’s tangent is CA/BC.

But the point is, the trigonometric function of the tangent is the lenght of the tangent line touching the unit circle, which doesn't even makes sense if you try to expand this to the example in this picture! There isn't a unit circle and the tangent touching it doesn't make sense here. So why the hell people use the trigonometric function instead of the slope formula?

>>9110759
Not yet, but i know we use that to get the derivative, makes sense using the slope formula but using the trigonometric function of tangent instead of the slope formula doesn't make sense, i know it works because i'm doing the exact same thing of the slope formula.

I'll start by offering this caveat, I'm not geneticist, let alone a biologist, my degrees are in physics and mathematics.
So, I've heard conflicting statements on this issue and therefore Google hasn't been of much help.
I've heard things ranging from hybrid vigour, to the antithesis of this.
Can someone more informed on the topic please elucidate this matter for me?
Thank you.

A new study of Chinese-Caucasian, Filipino-Caucasian, Japanese-Caucasian and Vietnamese-Caucasian individuals concludes that biracial Asian Americans are twice as likely as monoracial Asian Americans to be diagnosed with a psychological disorder.

Basically the same as always, way higher risk of mental disabilities (not severe ones like autism as far as I am aware).
Also, the male suffers a lot since it is not accepted by east Asian females that want to preserve their genes. But that has more to do with society than with him.
>>
>>9110684
I gave it a quick skim-read, it is certainly interesting.
However, couldn't this be due to socialization rather than genetics?
That is, due to feelings of dissonance from either culture (East Asian or European) they feel alienated and are thus more prone to mental health disorders?

>>9110685
Intellectual disabilities or what the anon above linked?
