From a biochemist's point of view, they're an excellent source of protein for eating in bulk.

From a Genetecs Engineers perspective I agree with both the fact that they are delicious and they are cute. This means unfortunately a dillema of ethics and natural gut feeling which led my research efforts into cloning and growing muscle tissue individually from brain matter in a laboratory....
Thus solving the problem of killing another creature with a brain for food

You're using your notebook sideways, and you're also using graph paper.

What the fuck man? The better question is what you've done right, if anything at all

>>7717906
Why would the integration constant need to be an element of the reals?

>>7717917
>graph paper
Literally nothing wrong with that, what does a /sci/entist use?

>>7717874
It would break.

What if it's done in a vacuum?

the velocity of the small gear at point of contact is exactly equal to that of the large gear at the same point

Because the water has to be pumped up there in the first place

>>7717837
Liquid water flow has terrible efficiency and there are countless better ways to store energy.

Look up Dinorwig power station. It pumps water up at night during cheap rates and releases the water during the day to meet peak power demands.

Hint: If you rolled seven six-sided dice, what is the likelihood they will all show different numbers?

>>7717636
You're not using a binomial distribution to solve this.. You're using a geometric distribution..

Let's suppose you roll:
[math] X=i [/math] for some i = 1,2,3,4,5,6

Then the question you want to know is how many times should I roll on average to get another i?

Well, assuming the die is fair:
[math] P(X=i) = \frac{1}{6} [/math] so
[math] P(X \neq i) = 1 - \frac{1}{6} = \frac{5}{6} [/math].

The geometric distribution models the number of times an experiment must be performed until a condition called success occurs.. Naturally, our success condition will be [math] X=i [/math]. That this occurs in k attempts is modeled by:

[math] p(k) = (\frac{5}{6})^{k-1}(\frac{1}{6}) \text{ for } k=1,2,3,...[/math]

Compute the expected value of this distribution, or look it up.

>>7717678
I need to correct this I think..

I believe [math] k = 0,1,2,3,... [/math]..

Sorry.. I'm just waking up.

Shit teachers I guess.

Oh wait

>Montgomery County’s failure rate for the June final exam in Algebra 1 was so steep — 82 percent for high school students — that district officials say they decided to add 15 percentage points to all test grades, recalculate scores and reprint thousands of report cards.

I stand corrected - only 18% passed

>What environmental pressures are on us now?
Alien invasions destroying civilization.

I'm talking, of course, about shitskins.

We are already devolving.

>>7717456
>Is humanity still evolving?
Yes.

>What environmental pressures are on us now?
In most regions, barely any beyond the most base forms of intelligence. The only thing keeping this grand machine halfway functional is sexual selection. Women and men who are either intelligent enough, or hardwired with a bias towards choosing partners who are highly functioning.

>what does actually physically happen on the harddrive

The hard drive stores the data for the program. Processing occurs in the CPU. A program may or may not write data back to the hard drive (i.e., saving a file), but the program data itself generally remains intact.

>dumbest question
>mentions C#

Your human readable code is compiled into a binary code composed of machine commands that the CPU can interpret.

This code is a stored as a data file on your HD, which means either as magnetic charges or whatever SSDs use nowadays.

Will we ever get a fusion reactor which actually produces energy?

>>7717684

we allready have.

are there openly accessible plans/Cad files? i'd like to build a model of that some time in my life.

Thank you anon.

Did anybody go through the last versions of Anton's textbook on calculus here? How would you rate the difficulty of its problem set from 0 to 10 (and comparing with Apostol and Courant's textbooks)?

Absolutely not.

Jet fuel does not melt steel beams, however it can easily turn 200,000 tons of structural steel and concrete into a fine powder from the top down as well as laterally ejecting steel debris hundreds of meters.
