Makes you remember its atomic number, whats the issue?

Fuck that name. Unununium is so much better.

>At some point, would the concentration of Jack Daniel's become so diluted that it would be completely undetectable in the solution?

Yes, of course.

Think about what it would mean if the opposite were true. Any given sample would have enough molecules of non-water to be detectable as jack. But you've got potentially infinite samples. So that means you must have infinite jack. But you don't. QED

>>7649253
Infinite water has a infinite mass.
At some point the pure mass of the water above the jack daniels will transform the jack daniels into dark matter. This will create a black hole which will suck in all your measuring facilitys

This is now a probability question because you always have a probability of finding the jack daniels particles because there will always be 1 part per N

yes and no

>>7649081
What do you mean?

I think it's possible with modern technology, might take 15-20 years to get there though at our current speed. That would be a long cold ride probably leave that to the Russians they seem to like chilling in space for long periods of time

PopScience will become a STEM major. It will be based on memorizing disparate trivia and quoting Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory. The thesis will be to give a vapid but inspirational speech in the style of Neil DeGrasse Tyson while wearing a stereotypical nerd outfit like Urkel. Starting salary: 300 K

>>7649033
Space Welding will be a popular trade.
Aerospace Engineering will branch off into multiple disciplines like computer science has.

Eugenics will make a comeback once human cloning becomes ethical.
Gene-splicing will bring domestic cat-girls onto the market.

>>7649052
No one will remember BBT in 100 years you nerd.

I guess the vectors are something like the time they ran so the one with the lower number won? Just define to variables to denote the number of times each Gymnast won and the interate over the entries of the vectors and increase the variable of whoever has the lower entry.
Im not gonna write the code for you, because it´s your homework.

Lol MATLAB

>>7649054
It is whoever has the highest score, I understand what you are saying, but how would I write that with the vectors? would i just be like vault1=find(gym1:1,gym2:2) ? I just dont understand how you write this piece.

Yes because 0.9999...=1

well you said that host opens two doors and one of them has the car behind it. So you would switch, and have a 50% shot of getting the car. Plus you can't just do infinity-1. instead use n-1.

>>7648976
nvm I thought he kept 2 doors closed. If there are total 2 doors lefts then yeah .9999999999999999999999999999999999 not 1 tho. That would be false.

Proof by induction might be useful, but then again I'm not a wizard either

>>7648912

Doesn't work, if it did then i would have been a wizard too.

>>7648924
I hate recurring equations, sorry I'm out if ideas, one little thing that might help which you've probably already noticed is that V_n and U_n are always positive

This isn't /adv/ but I'd assume biotechnology.

Read jack Horner's book "how to build a dinosaur" and find out for yourself

Somewhat related query, how long would it take to simply breed octopuses so that they could live more comfortably on land?

>>7648710
nah
if you'd run the statistics on a few million lotto draws they would all be pretty even

>>7648714
sucks.
There must be a reason certain ones have been drawn more than others.

>>7648717
No there doesn't.
Unless "random chance" is a reason.

Please.

Good. He's right.

If light had no mass, it would accelerate infinitely.

>>7648679
>he still doesn't understand that c is essentially an infinite speed
>he thinks it's "finite" because he's seen the number 299792458 m/s
It's just a number and it's just for convenience. The speed of light is infinite. It's worthwhile to consider this from the temporal perspective of the photon.

isnt it like, you ground yourself, you ground the computer, no potential difference, no electrical discharges?

how about the ground hole in a power outlet?

>>7648601
The problem is, when you are taking them apart and putting the components back. Since there are many components, you have to set them down on something and while you do that there is a chance that through your movements a charge will be built up, and when you pick them up again the discharge is so small you won't feel it, but your ram definitely will. And I would rather not fuck around with the sockets, since a little mistake might fuck me over badly.

>>7648601
Leave the power supply off at the computer and the wall but leave it plugged in. That will keep the computer frame grounded, and then just always keep in contact with the frame using a wrist strap or something. Batteries dont have a ground, they gave a quasi ground.
Dont work on carpet, work on wood or tiles, and try to use antistatic bags where applicable (only the inside of the bag is esd safe, dont just put it on the bag)

irresponsible people tend to have more babies, so, thats where we are going

Into Asians.

sorry it's late

>>7648398
It's a machine. How do gears know how to transfer energy and capacity for work within a system? How does the train's wheels know how to stay on the tracks?

It just does. Compounds are complimentary, and the universe on our scale can be pretty completely described mechanically. It's just physics.

>>7648410
But those are simple mechanical mechanisms. A trains wheels don't know to stay on the tracks, the tracks just keep the wheels on them. How does the protein that reads and corrects DNA know what to do? How does it know what segments are wrong?

>>7648337
i mean only the z->0 limit
it is 0 from one side and infinity from the other
what gives?

>>7648344

doesn't a function have to meet certain criteria to be differentiable or have a limit? (continuity or something?) i don't remember
