Not if lab-based.

Is there a doctor in the house?

The last two times I have masturbated, I have seen blood in my ejaculate. The first time it was barely noticeable but the second time it was much more noticeably pink in hue. This has been accompanied by more frequent urination, thought there is no pain during urination. I had not had any other noticeable symptoms until just now when I started feeling lightheaded. I have not masturbated since the second time which was late last week, I think Wednesday.

Any ideas on what's going on with me? Googling around says it could be Prostatitis, but apparently that is accompanied by fever, chills and pains, none of which I have.

If this is Prostatitis, what am I in for?

Is it possible to print an eeg bio-sensor onto a flexible material on a budget of under $1000?

I want to make a small eeg or possibly a subvocal sensor on a transparent and flexible material. I know its kind of crazy, but I might as well ask you guys.

What business do multiple choice questions have in university? Is this a uniquely American thing, or do European universities use this format in their exams as well? It seems pretty insane to me that all my kinematics exams and more than half of each of my calc exams use this.

I've never took a calc exam that had multiple choice and I took calc at community college
>>
>>7704724
At what school did you take calc? I'm going to Penn State.
>>
I taught college for three years after graduating, and I gave a multiple choice section on my exams in one class (intro to groups and rings). It made sense for some questions, and made a fair exam possible. Our class time was only 50 minutes, and it's hard to test 4 weeks of learning in that time. I went for 10 questions of multiple choice, with an expectation that each would take only 1 minute... plus 2 questions that should take 5 minutes, plus 3 questions that should take 10 minutes.

I gave partial credit if a m.c. answer was wrong, but the work was shown and was worth partial credit. If it was right, you got the full 3 points. If it was outright wrong and you selected an answer, you lost a point (to discourage guessing).

I got a few positive comments on the course evaluations about those exams. I admit they might have been influenced by my explanation of the philosophy behind them.

being a sociopath must be pretty good and by sociopath basically i mean "shameless alpha"

*feel good when going to job interviews
*not afraid to aproach women and fail
well you get the point, everything in ones life would be and feel better

now i ask, are there steps to become a sociopath or atleast get near it?

what comes to my mind:

meditation
motivation (in the form of documentaries and movie, with sociopaths/very confident people in them)

Do it for the LuLz.

Let that be your mindset and your description making law. Simple. Your current mindset probably sounds a lot like:

I want this goal, and want to do it this way, but if it goes this way, then I won't know what to do because I didn't think of it and if it does go that way I might end up with something I didn't want.

I'm stupid and fucked. I need 10x10 matrices with determinants of 0 but there can be no zeroes and no more than 4 consecutive 1's. Help.

Guys I have a bro who's a physics phd and he's unhappy with his life. I want this christmas to offer him a new perspective by way of introducing him to the fucking genius who was Alan Watts. Masters degree in theology, doctorate in divinity, friends with Carl Jung, and all-around master of untold proportions.

Is anyone here familiar with Watts and if so, could you please recommend a book of his which would offer a gentle but profound introduction to his genius-tier, other-worldly perspective? I really think it could help my mate but I just don't know which of his many books would be best suited.

pls halp. Thanks /sci/

also out of appreciation for my man watts, postan this.

Never heard of the guy before but your post has so many red flags I bet he was probably an /x/-tier kook.
>>
>>7704315
he really wasn't. he was extremely intelligent, there are hundreds of hours of his lectures on youtube.
he influenced jung and freud. he is extraordinarily articulate. he has no gripe with science, he merely attempts to merge eastern and western philosophies in an attempt to provide a more holistic perspective, and perhaps avoid global extinction by way of recognizing the interconnected nature of mankind in the same way as did jung. he took something of a hermetic perspective, just like isaac newton. incidentally. dude is not to be underestimated.

There is no top. Develop foundational skills
in analysis, algebra, and topology.. As you get better, start looking into more specific areas that pique your interest. Type "Introductory" + "topic" into amazon.. You'll find things..

You know there's a problem in society when I know someone who has an IQ of 176, maths degree from Cambridge, and still struggles to find jobs paying the amount he feels he should be paid.

It's either you make your own business or you get lucky landing a crazy good job being CEO or something close to it.

Thoughts?

You know there's a problem in society when I know someone who has an IQ of 85, no maths degree from Cambridge, and still struggles to find jobs paying the amount he feels he should be paid 1,000,000,000$.

It's either you make your own business or you get lucky landing a crazy good job being CEO or something close to it.

>>7704167
When you're smarter than 99% of the population, you would probably feel that you should be paid accordingly.
>>
>>7704191

You get paid for producing something that people need and selling it, or for producing something and convincing people that they need it, or producing something... or producing something..

Just because you have a high I.Q. doesn't mean a god-damn mother-fucking thing.

Has math degree from Cambridge and can't get a job? Sounds like this person did a shit-tier job. Sounds like this person can't network. Sounds like this person can't communicate well with others. If shit doesn't get handed to you in this world, then you learn how to take it. This faggot obviously isn't as smart as you make he or she out to be.
