I mean about Jeff Bezo's New Shephard reusable spacecraft? It made a great launch into space and then made quite the pretty landing back on earth making it the first reusable spacecraft. Sorry if I'm late to the party (or if this is more of a /g/ thing) but I say all hail the suspiciously dildo shaped missile and all the engineers and scientists that worked on ir. HOORAY!!!!

looks like a dong
Yeah, there's been a thread, just not a good one.
I'm pretty excited about this. Soon they'll be flying regularly, then they'll have scientific payloads, then there will be manned tests, then maybe daily space tourism flights.
They're using the same basic design, for their orbital launch vehicle. I estimate that the booster for orbital launch will only be about 25% bigger, linearly, with twice the volume and four times the mass, so the aerodynamics will be almost the same. The LOX/CH4 engine is supposed to be about five times as powerful, and I expect there will be a larger proportion of upper stage and payload, compared to this thing's capsule.
They will likely use this booster engine on the upper stage of their orbital vehicle. It's LOX/H2, so it has good specific impulse. It's clearly also suitable for landing, if they do a reusable upper stage.
Congrats, team dickship.

How does the arrangement of a structural isomer change the molecular composition of a compound?
>>7679757
Oh man is that boy sexy.
So, structural isomers are different molecules just like boys are different than girls but they still might look sexy even if they're boys.
Can I have more sexy boys now? Don't get banned.

>gender was a stupid concept to me until basket cases at university started yelling at me
Silly females and their personality cults.
>>7679752
>Understanding the concept, before actually solving equations
quite difficult to teach
>>7679782
Can't tell if sarcasm because teaching concepts is pretty hard to a newcomer.
Instead we teach how to solve equations because it's easier to teach
what if we just started killing off people with an iq below 100? would it benefit the human race in the long run?
> pic unrelated
I got 140 on an online iq test
Started? When would you stop? It better be quick or else you're going to end up killing the entire population.
>>7679512
Ok, I know the pic is unrelated, but now I'm curious. What is wrong with this scenario from a theoretical standpoint?
What do you guys think of psychiatry?
Both my parents are psychiatrists and im thinking of going for it
I think you are crazy
This is a science board. The humanities board is that way:
>>>/his/
>>7679501
>psychiatry
It's a legal term. Psychiatrists are psychologists with the training and legal responsibility to prescribe drugs. I correctly believe that Desoxyn should not be over the counter. I also correctly believe that all MD's are terrible scientists. Therefore I also correctly believe that you would be a neurochemical garbage man.
You'll get paid a shit ton...

Hi /sci
Philosophy has been for a very long time associated to "hard sciences".
Even now, in our time, scientists (from any fields) are debating on the nature of the world, which is clearly a metaphysical problem. I will not list the books or journals containing debates, but anyone who have an interest in sciences will know what I mean.
Which leads to my question : Are philosophy or metaphysics still relevant in sciences?
If yes, why did we almost banished philosophy from sciences education?
If no, why very good scientists would loose time in philosophical discussion that lead nowhere?
>>7679424
Science and philosophy had a falling out like science and magic.
>>7679433
They used to be such great buddies... What a shame.
>>7679424
It's not relevant past the epistemological premises' and a physicist has no use for it.
Alchemy might be a discredited field, but you can still practice alchemy as a discipline does not rely on being inherently true.
In the same way practicing physics only relies on fundamental postulates within the discipline itself.
>Even now, in our time, scientists (from any fields) are debating on the nature of the world, which is clearly a metaphysical problem. I will not list the books or journals containing debates, but anyone who have an interest in sciences will know what I mean.
The only thing I hate more than academics from the physics departments who publish in philosophy journals are philosophers who think they understand physics and try to bring retarded misinterpretations of QM and GR etc. into their arguments. All those publications and polemics making up the "debate" is the most pointlessly retarded and cyclical shit ever. I'm pretty sure most people doing it know they're wasting storage space, but hey publications help their career regardless so onwards.
Math is red
Engineering is green
Other Sciences are blue
Debate me
Not sure what is your point anon.
Math and engineering are two set and the intersection is empty?
Everything but math is not a science?
The surface of math is the same as the surface of engineering?
Please clarify

Lack of any od the 3 and you have abscence of though (99% of liberal arts)
Combining all of them gives you a cold, heartless black (physics)
If I want to make money (not be super rich, just wealthy enough to be able to afford cutting edge technology over the next 20-30) should I go into computer science or math majoring in computer science?
I want to make AI and I also want to merge my mind with computers, but I also want to be able to go to a grocery store in 20 years and buy a hundred dollar loaf of bread.
Should I just start raising a goat farm instead and hope the occult elite program goat worshipping into AI?
Just become a NEET
Once nanotechnology becomes a thing all 9 billion of us can enjoy cutting edge singularity technology.
Assuming those at the top don't view wageslaves as parasites that need to be destroyed.
Goat farm sounds more rewarding.
You just have to be able to spot the difference between an edgy satanic teen trying to fuck your goats, and a real occultists trying to steal your goats. After that though its smooth sailings.

Explain what a Turing machine is to a retard please. Tried reading everywhere and still don't get it.
>>7679253
Consider changing majors. CS has become shit because of the likes of you.
A Turing machine is a thing that can do anything (that can be expressed as logical algebra).
>>7679253
It's a beep boop robotable.
What do you guys think of Carl Sagan?
A brilliant example of what humanity can be.
Pic semi-related: the only pic I have of the man.
All I know is my astronomer uncle sent me The Demon-Haunted World for Christmas when I was 18, I read one and a half chapters and it made me physically ill. If the man's anything like his writing then he's trash.

nothing wrong with that
why do you think they have career fairs, seminars, etc at unis? its important

and when i come to sci to seek assistance on a real problem that i have found on my free time i get no answers, ever
you guys all suck dragon dicks
>>7679164
Posting facts and logic here, DOES fix what's wrong. The problem is IGNORANCE. (The added problem is STUPIDITY, but you can't fix that.) The fix is POSTING.
what can you tell me about this little guy here?
im studying mechanical engineering, is this thing of any use for me? for like technical mechanics? technical thermo dynamics?
>>7679100
>is this thing of any use for me
No, just get a $12 scientific calculator
>>7679299
The best scientific calculator out there.

I have the cx cas.
A sexy devil indeed.
But then again I got it for free so there's that.
Would you date a girl who didn't take/doesn't want to take calculus
>>7679023
I would ONLY date this girl
>>7679023
I've tried.
I used to date a lot of hot bimbos from my uni gym. Mostly majoring in worthless humanities or commercial shit.
I can't stand their retarded conversations after a while especially when their friends join. The sex isn't worth all the time wasted rotting your brain by trying to level with them.
I'm only dating girls who have taken at least DEs now, but mostly I'm dating seniors from my own department.
>>7679041
my gf is a sociology major, she's intelligent, but it gets annoying sometimes when she talks to me about gender and race crap. Also she hates math and refuses to take calculus
It's easy for her to talk to me about that stuff, since it's obvious, but it's hard for me to talk about stuff I am doing because she lacks the background.
