>ITT: request and share pdfs
They don't need to be /sci/ related, but since we're all /sci/ here, you may have a better chance requesting /sci/ related stuff.

>sharing pirated material using MICROSOFT'S uploading site

are you retarded?
>>
>>7693030
That shared folder has actually been around since the beginning of 2015 and some anon is working on it.
Taken from the notepad file:
"This is essentially a libgen mirror of recommended books
in the field of STEM and some social sciences. Nothing
is as in depth to fully warrant a complete undergraduate
education but enough to be competent in the subjects. For
the math section, it's more geared towards what an engineer
would be required to learn. I guess I'm ultimately inclined
towards the practical versus the theoretical. Despite that,
I want to bring together books which would help establish a
strong foundation for any STEM student in
the future. Quality instead of Quantity.

Poorly scanned texts are going to be processed through
ScanTailor and Adobe Acrobat (OCR). The really poor scans,
or those which lack contrast I will have to batch process
through GIMP, although the results have been rather...dis-
appointing. For the I the books which are passable, I
might eventually go through each book to put each bookmarks
(see Math/Courant), some time later. Then, they are final-
ly 'completed'. If I ever get around Adobe inDesign, I might
remake some entire thing (K&R's C)

For the best way to browse through onedrive, I recommend
the list view rather than the thumbnail view. (Press the
button right next to the Sort)

not OP but i'll tell you it's organic chemistry by clayden, greeves, warren, wothers

http://www.amazon.ca/Organic-Chemistry-Jonathan-Clayden/dp/0198503466

don't buy from there, find a used copy for like 20 dollars. I'm only a first year chem major, I've read half of it and now I'm pretty ready to destroy my second year.

has anyone else become as dismayed as I at the growing levels of Climate change denial in the general public?

It's almost become as bad as arguing with a holocaust denier, their method of argument is very similar

>We cant trust all this scientific data because the scientists are corrupt lol and its naive to think they are telling the truth but its not to believe in this global conspiracy and i believe every word that the skeptics say even if they are funded by mining corporations lol new world order alex jones hurrdurr

Am I beeing unscientific if I am sceptic of climate change?
So far, the models of climate scientists have been wrong several times, why should I trust them?

>>7691970
Not being skeptic to some extent or another about everything is unscientific, of course there's a difference between blind critique of something you do not fully understand and real skepticism which is only possible once you fully understand an argument/theory.

Don't let the current tend of scientism cultists convince you otherwise, they are mostly layman anyway. Diax's rake comes to mind; most universities and editorials today are in desperate need of it.

Galileo is the father of scientific fraud and nothing more
>>
Fun little fact not really related though:

It was more or less common knowledg that the earth was round even before galileo. This knowledge was hugely important for navigating the seas.

The only reason galileo got into shit with the church was because he claimed that the earth being round disproves religion. Not that he is entirely wrong on it contradicting the old testament but he clearly overstepped boundries outside of simply claiming that the world isn't flat.

Alright /sci/entists
Has anybody had any success convincing others about climate change? My dad was just watching something on Fox News about it, and I got into a big argument with him. What's the best evidence to show them? I didn't have any statistics to hand.

He's a computer programmer, and he has some engineering background, so he's not stupid. I feel like I just need to show him the right evidence. Any thoughts?

Well firstly inform him that the carbon we release (not from breathing, but from industrial and commercial activities) is different from the carbon released from nature, such as by breathing, eruptions, etc.

>>7691372
also inform him that no species has ever disappeared because of how it lived in its environment. Only species that do not adapt are doomed.

However humans are trying to control their environment rather than adapting to its changes.

What does /sci/ think about a major in microbiology?

I am currently going for 4 years pursuing a bachelors degree.

Any helpful tips from ACTUAL microbiologist?

Uhg I hate wrapping my mind around the concept of very small things. It's kind of boring. But, it is ultimately a study of Biology in a small branch none the less. Just as long as you have a passion for it, Anon.

Can autism be genetic
I heard some where that it can, and I'm slowly being convinced. My brother is retarded with traits of autism. My Dad gets obsessed over the same things over and over again. If I have it, then it will explain why me and the rest of y family are such betas. I know that the causes of autism are unknown, but what do you all think?

what's happening between the engine ignition and the moment it's fully lit (transparent exhaust gas + shock diamonds or whatever they are called) ?
the exhaust is red for a few second for some reasons , why ?

also what's the use of the circles that break on the top right part of the engine ?
>>
>>7688271

Those are very good questions. Unfortunately, I don't have an answer at this moment.
>>
i know it has to do with the different temperatures. it doesn't instantaneous get to the temperature needed for lift off. the shapes in the burning fuel is like the ones in a welder, and they areas of different temperatures. as for the circles i have no clue.
