I don't think engineers care. Engineers are too busy getting laid and paid.

math has a 1/2 board thats all it needs because nobody cares about math

if people really wanted to discuss math there would be more math discussion here

>>7741434
I think math undergrads are a very important demographic in /sci/, at least from what I've seen.

Without the math /sci/ would be nothing but /x/ and /adv/

>>7741416
That is an interesting idea. It is mainly hydrogen and helium so if we drop a nuke and super increase the temperature, we could have fusion occurring which would hopefully start a chain reaction? There is the question of pressure tho

it's too small to sustain deuterium fusion, so it can't even become a brown dwarf iirc.

or would you rather hire an EE as ME or ME as EE?

Hint: electronics is easier.

>>7740968
I'd think that it's easier to learn electronics than mechanics, at least for me it's more difficult to think and model in 3 dimensions than 0.

Actually the heavier elements weren't created by our sun. Heavy elements are created in the stages before a star goes supernova, and dies. Then during the nova all that material is flung out into space, and eventually some of it ended up here, and we built guns to kill each other with it.

To answer the second question, probably not. Odds are that if that could happen, it would during such a supernova, and then it already would have, since such massive stars have such short lifespans.

does OP say that there already was a star in our system before our sun was even born

>>7740720
This is the definition of star generations. 1st generation stars can only contain hydrogen, helium, and a tiny bit of lithium. Only later generation stars can contain heavier elements.

is sci-hub still on?
you could ask here or on reddit/r/scholar

>>7740492

i have uni access, how do I access scientific journals?
Are undergrads allowed in

soak a base into them

Calcium gluconate-gel works if HF comes in contact with skin, dunno if it works with leather as well

>>7739641
hydroFLUORIC? Stuff's no joke. Acid effects on cotton and leather well take some time to appear. I'd toss them for safety. Boots are cheaper than skin graphs.

Describe your experience with psychosis

>>7739601
>psychosis
>Feeling like something is controlling body and im stuck here watching
>Have a feeling that i can beat this other thing using my body but fail
>I think my eyes are changing colors
>I just saw a white see through cat walk past me and vanish
>I see flying dots and smoke like wavy effects on the walls
I also randomly started dancing
eyes were dilated but i ate roman noodles and that made it go down
that's about it
ya

Maybe when your doctor who prescribed the meds asks you if you've experienced any negative side effects you should tell him you are experiencing psychosis instead of lying to him in order to enable your amphetamine addiction.

Maybe you can switch to ritalin? If amphetamine isn't the drug for you then maybe you should ask to try something different. Either that or get some sleep. I can kinda relate, I'm on 120 mg of vyvanse a day plus 20 mg of straight dexedrine throughout the day to keep me fresh. If I dont get enough sleep I get a bit paranoid for sure.

Fuck, that is a good question. I feel like I'm being by saying the glass of ice chips is the answer, but after giving it some thought I'm going to say the glass of water.

>>7739151
According our current observations in thermodynamics you can't. universe is a closed system as far as we know.

>>7739158
Yes. Think about the motion of the molecules and their possible states compared to the ice chips. Entropyin some sense is a measurement of how many of these states we can have

>the OP pic

Fucking dumb.

Bump...

They were historically called phosphenes I believe, because people thought it was phosphorous that is trapped in everyone's eyes, but it could only be seen in some occasions. I have zero clue what they really are though. Maybe difficulty differentiating the contrast of some dark things? I don't know.

>>7734546
My sister does experiments where she uses a high intensity magnetic field next to people's heads to induce phosphenes/blind spots. I don't know what the end goal of it is, but she always has enjoyed fucking with people's brains.

>>7741106

I figure the demographic are undergraduates who ego-boost themselves online because that's what humans do.

The search for knowledge allows one to look down on others and once you get a board full of twats who think their 4.0 makes them great human beings and anyone below that is not worth the time, coupled with anonimity the result is /sci/

Not to mention the popsci only faggots who for some reason try to spout lies and deceive on topics they have no understanding of.

If you want to grow plants indoors, you should get into hydroponics. You can buy heaps of stuff online, but the marketplaces can all get pretty crowded at this time of year, so make sure you don't use a proxy filter or anything which can slow you down <:-)

>>7741072
That's not really what I'm asking about. I want to keep my tree alive even though it's indoors away from sunlight. Can I supply it with sugar as an alternative to natural photosynthesis?

>>7741090

That's the staff of hermes by the way, not the staff of asclepius as proper.

>>7740963
yeah, I just googled "med" and took the first pic I saw.

>>7740938
>are there any books that I can use
for what? the best book would be a book to prepare for the MCAT exam so you can actually get in.

why do you want to go to med school?
