take your meds

Someone asks for taking your meds and all the schizo faux-intellectual wannabes start going full autist.

"Meds? Fuck you im not crazy lololol"
"Ad hominem! Fallacy! Bulverism lololol!"

Seriously?
None of you are for real.
You cannot reject memes and be you.
You ARE a meme.

they have all become politicized and egotistical
you can not tell egotists that self serving assumptions and character assassination is illegitimate
asking generation y to show their proof is like challenging them personally

New /sci/ rules:

1.) Take your meds.

>>7700623
If you disagree with these rules, then you're psychotic by definition.
Keep up with the immature personal attacks.
It's all truly stupid people have.
I however have Epistemology and Empiricism.

sounds a bit harsh but kinda alright

No, not as long as it isn't obviously homework, e.g. "Hey /sci/ what's the answer to this question? Thanks". Post it.

>>7700569
If it's highschool tier then obviously yes.

I don't undrstand why people here suddenly came up with that hate for homework. It's perfectly alrught to help others with homework. Just make it clear that it is homework in the OP, and people can give hints or show the general direction or explain how it's done. Giving just the solutions without challenges for the student should be banned, not asking for it.

For clarification, [math]x[/math],[math]y[/math],[math]x_1[/math], and [math]y_1[/math] all depend on [math]t[/math], but [math]v_0[/math], [math]\vec{V}_0[/math], [math]\theta[/math], [math]\vec{n}[/math], and [math]a[/math] are all constants.

Two thirds of her interviews are on tails, and one third are on heads. So she should say "there is a one in three chance that you flipped head".

>>7700483
1/3 of the time she is woken it will be heads. 2/3 of the time she is woken it will be tails. Really not that hard to get and I don't know why people who understand Bayesian probability have problems with this.

This is the position I started out on, too.

Actually, I am now having a hard time considering the halfer position, but a few weeks ago I was. Fuck. I don't even remember the argument that got me.

>>7700289
eat a bit of everything, mostly vegetables

I try to stick to the Mediterranean diet myself.

Intermittent fasting has many benefits.

>>7700249
Stop complaining and start working.

>>7700250
I do work hard, and I do get good grades, but I don't know if I have the potential to do great things

>>7700249
I'd you're above average you aren't stupid.

Seriously, the only way to get good at math is to practice over and over and over. Do problems until you can't forget the rules.

I've been "math-y" at times and "not math-y" at times. It depends how much you do it. When you do it a lot, and the concepts fit in your mind and you see the relationships between them, you'll be able to manipulate them well. It has less to do with ability than you think.

>>7700199
General rule of thumb, think geometrically, but work algebraically (this isn't to say algebraic intuition isn't important or helpful). Also, as the other anon pointed out, practice! Mathematics is not a spectator sport. Go back to the very basics and make sure you can do those and understand why they are true

I'm taking it.

Why would you freak about about a non-mandatory exam that's taken just for fun and has no bearing on your potential skill as a professional mathematician?

Just relax, dude. If you do poorly, then great - you're like everyone else.

>>7700118
im a freshman who is shit at math

do i have any reason to consider taking this

>>7700124
Honestly? You have no business being there... if placing is your concern.
But it's just for fun, so just show up and see what it's like. It's just an experience. Don't worry about it.

>>7700084
I'm guessing it's the excess insects or rodents that are attracted to your garbage.

>>7700078
shit batch of mortar,

We live on a planet, that lives in a solar system, which live in a galaxy, which lives in a universe, which lives in a higher dimensional universe, which lives in your mum.

Fuck you, why did we need to switch from Rad to Gray? What was the problem with Rad? Is science just amusing itself at this point?

>>7700000

no one gives a fuck

It would be extremely painful...

You'll get a boner

>>7699917
Probably nothing. Capsaicin only affects birds. You should do it anon

Pic obviously unrelateted? Amount doesn't mean quality.

>>7699781
I can confirm so.e countries make it painfully easy for you to graduate.

>>7699781
Yeah right, quality of education obviously sucks in the top 5 countries...

It's measured per capita btw

If the shield is outside of our atmosphere, yes.

One thing you have to keep in mind is that the sun is so far away that the beams of light are virtually parallel. In order to block 3% of the suns's rays you would need an object 3% the surface are of a circle with the Earth's radius. That's a big-ass fucking floating satellite.

Just an idea, how terrible will inducing a small scale nuclear winter be?

Wouldn't there be enough residue to block enough light, or is it not that simple?
