Is this to scale?

>>7647034
Yes

Depends. What's the resolution + size of your monitor?

Why do retarded CS majors think this is funny? Why don't they fuck off to >>>/g/ where they belong?

>>7646986
300k forints maybe

Seriously, the same thing happened with IT industry (in the UK) we were told there was a shortage of 30,000 jobs and needed to import labour. It wasn't true, the market was saturated as fuck and still hasn't recovered

>>7646981
That's pretty cool.

why is this a big deal? never used spaceengine

>>7647535

The universe in SpaceEngine is approximately the same size as the observable universe.

There's a book by Susskind that I've been ogling a bit.
> http://www.amazon.ca/Quantum-Mechanics-Theoretical-Leonard-Susskind/dp/0465036678/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1447017481&sr=1-1&keywords=quantum+mechanics

Anyway, any of the hundreds of books with the title "Quantum Mechanics"--possibly preceded by "Introduction to"--will probably do. Bohm's book is worth taking a look at.

It'd be interesting an interesting discovery.

It's a form of feminism, but not backed up with as much evidence as typical feminist arguments.

Anyway, it's patently false. If we were ever aquatic, we'd have a lot more hair than our evolutionary cousins, not less. We'd be bulky and round instead of all gangly. We're built to dissipate heat, not keep it in.

The AAH has received little serious attention or acceptance from mainstream paleoanthropologists,[20][68][69][70] has been met with significant skepticism[70][71] and is not considered a strong scientific hypothesis.[20][5] The AAH does not appear to have passed the peer review process, and despite Morgan being praised by various scholars, none of her work has appeared in any academic journals of anthropology or related disciplines.[62] The AAH is thought by some anthropologists to be accepted readily by popular audiences, students and non-specialist scholars because of its simplicity.[4] In 1987 a symposium was held in Valkenburg, the Netherlands, titled "Aquatic Ape: Fact or fiction?", which published its proceedings in 1991.[14][72] A review of Morgan's book The Scars of Evolution stated that it did not address the central questions of anthropology – how the human and chimpanzee gene lines diverged – which was why it was ignored by the scholarly community. The review also stated that Morgan ignored the fossil record and skirted the absence of evidence that australopithecine underwent any adaptations to water, making the hypothesis impossible to validate from fossils.[60]

No, we would be even more technologically advanced and prosperous without the world wars. Prove me wrong.

>>7646666
I would if you didn’t have those decadent quads. :^_))

>>7646666
Tech advances during the wars... gg izy.

The same as the odds that they lose 6 of their coin tosses out of 25. I'm rusty on my babby probability, but here's a shot: There are 25C6 ways of losing 6 out of 25 coin tosses. There are 2^25 possible outcomes in 25 coin tosses. Hence, the following probability:

[math]\frac{\frac{25!}{6!19!}}{2^{25}}=\frac{177,110}{33554432}=0.00527[/math]

If you want to know the odds that the Patriots got at LEAST 19 out of 25, you need to add in the probability of getting 25/25, 24/25, 23/25, 22/25, 21/25, and 20/25. That gives you:

[math]245505/33554432=0.0073166[/math]

I'm not sure wtf is up with /sci/'s LaTeX, so here's an image of what I intended on showing you.

Here's a better question: what are the odds that *some* team wins 19/25 tosses? I bet it's better than even. And if you pick an arbitrary rolling window of 25 tosses, it's pretty much certain to happen eventually.

Your odds of winning the lottery are basically zero. But someone will win the lottery, and if not this week, then the next week or the one after. Same deal here, but on a smaller scale.

some kind of primal instinct that rewards you for being under shelter when the weather is bad. I don't think its too much more complicated than that

Generally older because they didn't fuck around with the explanations (plus they were shorter because of that) but if you need the fancy shit, you need the fancy shit.

old textbooks. They were good at explaining concepts and how to solve it. They didn't go off in a tangent of some stupid story you don't need to know. New textbooks put pretty pictures and useless explanations without explaining what the author is doing and why its solved this way.

>>7646582
Old text books. Not only old text books but old scientific movies explain shit in a very crystal clear manner.

Try not being a faggot.

>what is conservation of energy

>>7646330

At this point I just need to get perfect algebra, trigonometry and coordinate geometry at high school level and maybe a bit more advanced

Any ideas where I can start?

If your basics are lacking study your basics.

>>7646339

What I'm saying is, it'd be nice if you could recommend a textbook that covers these basics in a grounds up way, or something along those lines.

I don't know much about Math, but what I do know is that the textbooks we're provided with are not optimal for learning Mathematics.
