As a metaphor it can be said that the Riemann Zeta function is that where you have a mechanical bull and it's rider; the rider plays the function of meta-physical resistance to the bulls tetrating speed, the tetration is caused by the allocation of input compared to the riders proficiency, but there's a catch, the resistance that the rider portrays is created as the input of energy is put up is increased exponentially to the point that the bull bulls energy distribution when put into further energy heights becomes so chaotic that the rider has full operation distribution over the bull and just before the mechanical bull snaps off its axis the rider becomes the operator, and the distribution flips so that the maximum occupancy of the bull increases and the sectoring of the operator that is regulating input energy, although the dial already be at max; that the dial seems to just be sitting at minimum input.

Thanks for the in-depth description, it really shed some light on the subject matter.

What are you angry about? Just work harder. If you mom can do every assignment without prerequisite knowledge then your uni is shit.

She studied the feynman lectures when she was younger. I got interested in physics because of her and those books. I'm just frustrated as fu.ck.

nope

enjoy being dumber than your mom in every measurable way

protip: your exact situation is what the term "regression" was created to describe

Hint: apply the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.

Hardmode: Only knowing c, what can be said about f?

n+1th derivative = 0

nah i took a picture of my room just now on timer and it was all there while i was out of the room

>>7746025
the camera and the paper are also constructs, however. so you are still perceiving with your construct generating capacities-- not true reality.

ask your cat, he knows.

>>7746016
Prove the things you just said are true

If we're living in a computer, then I think it would take a very powerful computer. The most powerful computer we know of is the biological brain. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to say that all we are and experience is the dream of an unfathomably intelligent living being?

>>7745983
Which begs the next question...

Are our dreams reality for somebody? Are the people we dream about alive in some way, if only when we're asleep? Maybe the reason people aren't aware and conscious in their dream is because it's all being shared by the people you're dreaming about.

i like what susskind has been saying about black hole surface area and information density, so i can see how it could happen, but visualising it is hard without having everything straight morphing

Algebra is boring and only exists to be used as a tool in other branches of math.

>>7745970
because it's the only math you feel deep inside there is an application to

>>7745970
I'd prefer it if abstract algebra was taught the same way as general topology.

General topology teaches students to reason about topologies in general instead of a narrow handful of pretty cases. For instance a student of general topology has to be capable of creating topologies to satisfy any type of criteria off the top of their head as opposed to regurgitating some named topology they memorized as an example at some point.

On the other hand, in an abstract algebra class students never try to construct any weird groups/rings by hand or build an intuition about the general case. Instead they only look at modulo groups, groups of prime orders, and a small handful of named examples of groups and similarly for rings. Worse still the entire class is eventually just geared at studying polynomials because of muh quintic polynomial meme.

All of the interesting bits of algebra are covered in category theory anyways.

To answer the question we need to understand how the human mind works and brings about consciousness. Sadly no one on earth does except Jesus and He's not talking...

>>7745926
Why is this image still used in 2015? You have to be ignorant of human evolution to think that's how it is.

>>7745926
>does anyone here have good knowledge of science so as to know if humans really have the same ancestor with apes?
>I mean,really once upon a time it was the same being?
Go read a fucking textbook. There is a massive amount of fossil and genetic evidence and this is a settled fact.

>if so,why it happened only that creature to evolve and develop such intellect and speech?why are there no such supperior mammals like humen,coming from the ancestors of sharks,lions e.t.c?
Why would you expect it to happen? Evolution is dependent on mutations which occur randomly. Complex behaviors and organs don't just happen because they are beneficial.

A very small amount of cyanide is in apple seeds, but even then the seed has to be crushed or broken open in some way to release the cyanide. Apple seeds just pass right through humans unless the shell is broken. I think the amount of cyanide is so small you'd need a ridiculous amount of seeds to get anything substantial. Pic related however is what you want if you want to get cyanide from plants.

>>7745917
there is, you just need to make it react with digestive enzymes (by eating it for example).
You need ~100g of apple seeds to kill someone.

>>7745935
Not especially, it's just something i hetd from my friends. I was just thinking that the cyanide wasn't so simple to obtain, even if it's just a little. Thanks

I mean Tihange 1.

Does this mean I have to wear an airborne radiation suit when driving my car which does the same thing?

You mean December?

1975 is a long time away, of course there will be failures. They probably won't make it critical until they are sure.

If you become a well known politician. Otherwise you just look like you made a "I'm going to major in philosophy"-tier decision.

Nope.

Learn this quick OP. The fastest way to a well paying job is to
>1) identify the jobs everyone says has a respectable salary
(these are usually STEM related but can be economics, etc)
>2) identify the one you are truly interested in
(this is much more difficult than people think. Interests change over time. I was lucky enough to choose a field as a naive undergrad that I enjoy. Not sure if it's exactly what I want though)
>3) be the best you possibly can be and work your ass off.
There are no jobs for people who just get a degree. There is no money for people who aren't interested/good at what they do. Work hard and demonstrate genuine interest and you can break into the field you want.

>the field you want
is Organized Crime

Ugh

Evolution doesn't work like that. Felines and Avians are not humanoid, and therefore would not evolve further with these characteristics. Ape ancestors did.
Also, we didn't evolve -from- the monkeys, we share a common ancestor with monkeys.

meh

>>7745333
it seems crazy but maybe it works

maybe it accentuates the signals of the neurotransmitters affect on polarity, increasing the peaks? That might further recruit anti-pain responses like shunting and endorphins

here is my dumbass two cents idea

from what i can tell pulses of current run through nerves to make signals, so maybe magnets interfere with those current pulses somehow to diminish them

imagine if you had it done but you couldn't stop it and teeth started growing everywhere, like on your fingers and out of your eyes and stuff until you were just a big bundle of teeth

Good question...

Wore 3-4 years a brace, still needing a retainer once in a while. Shark-like properties would be nice. Regrowing this shit without problems in no time.

I believe she has terminal handitis. The only way to save her is to give her a hot semen injection directly from her biological son.
