There's a reason it's called the meme drive on /sci/

>>7738109
I don't often go on /sci/ Is it just called meme drive because it's a popular discussion topic and/or cause lot of shitpositng?

>>7738095
It's real, just depends on when the world will take it seriously enough to put it to good use.

This process couldn't recurse forever. Each succeeding simulation would have a much, much smaller universe than the one simulating it. We would not be able to accurately simulate a universe as big as our own

>>7735575
>If just one planet in one solar system in the universe created a simulation which could be confused with the real universe, then there are trillions of trillions of trillions of trillions of such simulations
Uh no? There is exactly just one simulation on one planet in one solar system in the universe?

>>7735584
Why not?

> le simulation meme
go back to bed Mr Anderson

*The pic actually is related. I forgot to edit that out lol

>>7742381
Holy shit these are disgustingly easy lol...

If you plan on transferring to a decent uni to do anything strongly math related, prepare to get fucked in the ass.

They are not that easy, but there are no applied questions.

H fucking F. Fuck that meme acid.

Also fluorides in water.
I fucking hate fluorine.

Define 'meme'

What? When you said "a history class for math and science" I thought you meant a history OF math and science, which most universities will have classes in. But then from the second sentence I don't know what you're talking about.

>>7742079

There are classes on the history of mathematics.

>>7742087
I think OP meant courses like a history of mathematics course covering stuff in modern mathematics aimed at math majors. eg.
>Such and such theorem originally came about because so-and-so was trying to figure out X.
>Later on these other guys realized they could generalize it and the breakthroughs led to the theory of Y.

I don't know, OP. I imagine it's because there are typically many professors on staff versed well enough in the history of mathematics to be able to confidently cover the material.

IQ doesn't mean much

>he taught himself trigonometry, advanced algebra, infinite series, analytic geometry, and both differential and integral calculus.
I did this too, it's not very impressive and doesn't mean you're particularly clever.

>Before entering college, he was experimenting with and deriving mathematical topics such as the half-derivative using his own notation. In high school he was developing the mathematical intuition behind his Taylor series of mathematical operators.
I didn't do this because I was too busy hustling.

>>7741735
Why haven't you gotten a Nobel yet?

>>7741636
>5 years ago: "Alloy"
>Today: "NANOTECH SUPERMETAL"

>>7741636
Is there any reason this technique couldn't be applied to other metals for similar results?

>>7741636
>14 per cent by volume
Juden pls

>>7741651
Yeah, there's been a ton of research in nanoparticle inclusions in different matrices, metallic and otherwise. I'm guessing this one got in Nature because
>delivering a higher specific yield strength and higher specific modulus than almost all structural metals.

Also, has anyone ever eaten a cacao fruit itself?

Do you go to a university? If so, see if you can access your library's online databases. Most colleges have bought access to EBSCOhost.

>>7741492
I don't.

I'm also curious about the presence of caffeine. Many studies report it is present, but some do not, and suggest it stops short of synthesizing more complex methylxanthines. Which is why most of its content is theobromine and a bit of theophylline.

About the only thing in high enough quantity in the atmosphere for oxygen to burn with is nitrogen and other oxygen. One creates ozone, the other would be laughing gas. Neither system is favored by thermodynamics.

There is an infinitesimally small possibility. Very very fine dust particles are explosive.

We laugh when something is funny.

>>7741796
Thx man it all makes sense now

we laugh to fend off attacks from predators when we're caught off-guard.

Seriously imagine you're an animal and hear humans laugh like fucking hyenas

>>7740471
i am not gonna ask you anything simply because i'm jelly of the enormous bribes you get

>>7740480
bribes? tell me more

What's it like knowing your two fields of decent specialization are on entirely different levels of development?

Nanotech and Materials

Any engineering field or mathematics.

But mainly, do what you want that is economically viable to pay off your debts and help you remain self sufficient.

>>7739874
None. Studying IS a meme.

>>7739240
Get a degree in memeology.

>>7739242
Me:I have that. Ph.Deez nuts

Barber:come over

Me:why you always lying?

It's called logic which is part of philosophy.

>>7738840
This board is 99% undergrads and high schoolers. The difference between engineers and scientists at those levels are negligible.

>>7738840
Why would someone do that? (your pic)

>>7738840
oh look yet another shit thread made by some kunt whining about engineers

I bet you're the same guy as well

Write out every equation I need to know. Write them out about 50 times each at least. Go through practice problems and repeat

>>7738064
How well did it work so far?

>>7738064
Jesus. Sounds ugly but decent-ish for see/do classes like elementary calculus. Something like this will do you no good for higher math.

For me, I like to write down only definitions, propositions, theorems. No proofs. Very few examples / exercises. Then I go through my notebook a couple of times each semester and try to prove everything and think of examples. If I can't, I failed, and I study that topic from a book and try again.
