Analysis with an Introduction to Proof by Steven R. Lay

>>7726917
I like Lay too, but it's not a calculus book, it's an analysis book. It's basically a more formal version of Spivak's Calculus.

Learning new stuff is very difficult at first, but after some time it becomes easy. Sometimes I'll leave something for 24 hours, go do something retarded like shit post on 4chan, and come back later to learn/solve the problem with very little difficulty.

There is a bit of science behind this, but I forget what it's called. It has something similar to neuroplasticity and forming new pathways.
I can study the fuck out of something, hit a brick wall, sleep on it, and then everything clicks the next day.

With that master and PhD choices you are already a well rounded memeing memery memology limemericks meme man. Why ruin your meme career with a non-meme undergrad degree. Go all out with the memes and major in CS like a true respectable memeable memer.

It's as much a science as possible; the problem being that the human mind is complex. So call it what you want. You'll never describe a person's mental behavior with equations and you can't describe the component parts very well, however you can describe a person's mental behavior.

It's a form of applicable science, but your pic (Psychology Today) is the biggest disgrace to the field that has ever existed.

I know medical research is notorious for this, and unfortunately it's par for the course, but how can it be that there are dozens if not hundreds of published studies bluntly claiming that the human foreskin has no role in sexual sensitivity? It's astounding how strong cultural and personal bias can be, that these not only get published but highly cited for what seems like relatively shoddy research.
The majority of the world's male population can reach in their pants and readily disprove these results. What happened to science such that it became not only acceptable, but encouraged to ignore empirical data and subjective experience in favor of "data", without even attempting to explain why the individual might falsely believe they're having whatever experience?
I can't imagine what the rest of the developed world is thinking about the US. Whatever drives this attitude obviously leads to disastrous results and prevents poor practices from being uprooted and criticised for what they are, and it isn't limited to just infant genital cutting. It doesn't matter if some large entity comes forward to admit they were wrong, driven by personal bias, or monetarily motivated. It's about a lack of solid research and critical thought.
What is wrong with us? You would think an aversion to compromising the sexual health of members of one's tribe would be one of the most highly conserved higher behaviors there is, aside from cases of control / domination. We're such a strange thing. It's an unpleasant feeling to know what is being done to children who can't meaningfully consent, and knowing things take a very long time to fizzle out if they ever do at all. There is so many things that are just fucked, but we can't even get them outlawed or regulated, much less scientifically and culturally frowned upon with some sort of consensus. Here, take some cholesterol and blood pressure meds too while you're at it, don't change your garbage diet you overpay for.

It's really fucking rude of you not to bother reading any of the links I posted (10+ on HIV alone) and expect me to read yours. Seriously, fuck off. Here's some of them directly taken from those two links I posted so you need to make even less effort to be a dick.

Can you get a staph infection from popping a pimple and not cleaning/covering it properly? I read a thread on reddit where someone popped a pimple, absentmindedly touched it during the day, and then developed a MRSA infection. Something tells me the pimple he popped was the beginning of a MRSA infection since early on, it often appears as a whitehead. Sometimes my pimples pop on their own so this shit is terrifying.

>>7726169
you clean your popped pimples with hydrogen peroxide? hasn't hydrogen peroxide been found to be pointless? my understanding is that it doesn't kill shit and it may actually damage tissue, hindering wound healing.
>>
>>7726163
Even tiny scratches can kill you man, if it wasn't for modern medicine.
I was scratched on my leg by my cat when I was a kid.
It got infected and made this "hole" in my leg about 1/2 cm in diameter and 1cm deep.
It burned like hell.
Doctor had to cut way the dead flesh and I had to take antibiotics. It wasn't anything as bad as an MRSA infection, but still.
Living in a pre-antibiotics world must have sucked.
