I've got a question for you guys.

Whenever I orgasm, the vision in my left eye dims for between 20 seconds to a few minutes. It isn't a full-on blindspot but the center of my vision goes very dark. No such thing happens to my right eye after climax.

Can any of you guys shed some light as to what the fuck is going on?

is recreational Marijuana hazardous in adolescent? Or is this grade a Bull Shiite
New Zealanders claim that 8 Iq points are lost in frequent users during adolescence, and other journals claim permanent changes in the hippocampus and other brain structures. I thinking. no one can agree on a universal definition of IQ, so how can they constitute this.Plus the hippocampus is the only region in the brain that undergoes neurogenesis, what is happening. further more, adollecnces is a period of time where neural connections are being made to mature the mind. Cannabis is know to promote neural connectedness and longevity of nerve cells, wouldn't this constitute increase in intelligence, i.e. more connections greater IQ potential?. Human nature is literally achieve states of balance/Homeostasis, admits external and internal change.
What are we missing?

Judging by your post, you are 13 years old, high, and suffering some sort of learning disability. Am I right?

If I'm wrong about the learning disability, then I guess that justifies the study.

Or, here's a hint, try reading the study in question. Want to know how they measured IQ? Read the study. Why do they think there were changed in brain structures other than the hippocampus? Read the study. What about your neurogenesis concerns? Read the fucking study.

HELP !

Stuck with doing Biology 102

I got three questions which I have no idea how to answer... PLZ ANONS HELP ME

1. Name the key enzyme used during PCR, and identify the original organism in which the enzyme was first discovered ?

2. What special feature does the enzyme you described possess, that allows it to work in PCR ?

3. The EvoBead(TM) are specially formulated the company Edvotek. What must be present in the "beads" to allow for DNA Copying during PCR ?

NOTE: THIS IS "DNA FINGERPRINTING USING PCR LAB"

Can anyone explain ways to link physics to molecular biology (Biochemistry, genetics, etc). It's a pretty open-ended topic but I have a degree in Molecular Medicine and am interested in physics. Anyone have any ideas on how to link these two? It might sound stupid but this is only out of interest

The connection to physics is mostly through statistical mechanics (and quantum to a lesser extent) which is used to develop models and methods in chemical solutions thermodynamics that is applied to biochemical systems including surface science and macroscopic systems (molecular thermodynamics models applied to chem. sol. thermo. methods). Textbooks:

>Garland, Dill K A , Bromberg S Molecular Driving Forces; Statistical Thermodynamics In Chemistry And Biology

Written by physicists, CS and a chemical engineer. This is one of my favourite textbooks. A similar text

>Daan Frenkel, Berend Smit Understanding Molecular Simulation, Second Edition_ From Algorithms to Applications (Computational Science Series 1)

written by "biophysicists" I would never recommend this disconjointed clusterfuck, but I understand it has some reputation in the field.

Should be very easy, it's just applied math.

Completely different ways of thinking. Some mathematicians can't do physics even if their life depend on it, some can do it and they are good at it. It's up to you.

>>7660665
People get physics degrees without a math masters? That's like the bare minimum entry requirement.

Brain: complex quantum device
Computer: electrons flying around.

Why do AI researchers even hope that they can emulate the brain or create some intelligence and shit? It's clearly retardedly hard. Why are we being warned against rogue AIs and shit?

Basically AI nowadays is just a massive curve fitting operation be it RNNs or LSTMs or whatever you're using. Is it a dead fucking field?

Pic very unrelated.

Are AI researchers really trying to emulate a brain in software. Maybe they might be trying to understand some heuristics used by humans so they can use them in programming a theorem prover or something but is anyone actually trying to build a copy of a brain using electronics?

Fuck your shit OP.

I want to know if that troll science comic would work at a small amount.

The brain is no more a quantum device than computer circuitry. Both exist in a world subject to quantum laws. And neither exploit those laws in any particular way, but rather seem to do their best to cancel out all quantum jitter from their mechanisms.

The brain is several magnitudes more complicated than the wildest fever dreams of a CPU architecture designer, but the difference is not some hand-wavy thing like "quantum mechanics." Instead it is raw fucking complexity.

Not having a suitable application at the moment doesn't mean there isn't one.

History is full of cases where the true value of a given theorem wasn't realized until much later.
>>
>>7659535
But still, your value of the math hinges on it being applicable in the future.

Suppose you could know that a certain field of mathematics could never be applicable. Would you value it?

most promising thread i've seen in ages

1) It's useless to pick an a_i to be 4 or more - you can split it into 2 + (a_i - 2) if that's the case and get a better one product. So we're left with choosing from 2 and 3. Two 3's are better than 3 2's (9 > 8) so we have to pick as many 3s as possible. That takes us to 999. Then we have to compare 3 vs 2+2, where the 2's win.

Final answer:
n = 334
Sequence = 2 times 2, 332 times 3,
>>
>>7658381
2) Let's assume a solution exists, x needs to be close to the square root of 379. This is about 19. Try 19 (it's easy to multiply these numbers because it includes 20), doesn't work, too big. Try 18. It works, looks like this:

380 * 378 + 1 = 379^2
