It's not hard. You just need to treat it as a real job and put in 40 hour weeks by your second year. It's impossible to do badly unless you're really lazy as fuck.

I'm also doing pre-med classes, and ROTC for the USAF. Do you think that's all manageable?

>>7644459
>pre-med classes

Gen Bio, Orgo, and an extra English class freshman year; big whoop.

>ROTC for the USAF

Enjoy waking up at 5:30am every day and being yelled at for not polishing your shoes enough. Also, it's difficult as fuck to go directly into med school afterwards.

Because retards can't make that distinction and associate it with actual people who were in those situations, while disregarding the fact that those robots are contextually the same with your calculator.

The electronic circuits are made to resemble people. Why the fuck wouldn't you feel empathy for a sentient humanoid? HOW CAN YOU BE THIS RETARDED?

Two votes is clearly an insurmountable margin at this point.

As we are all well aware of there are only 49 posters on /sci/ in total and fucking Anon49 is too edgy to cast a vote as usual.

philosophy

>>7644416
Anon... Philosophy is literally religion but with even more spooks.

>>7644416
I know there is a lot of convergence in research at the most abstract levels of philosophy/math/CS/econ, but I assumed the average philosophy graduate student is just doing heavily qualitative research or basically just reviewing old literature.

If you have a defined ideal, with no regard for internal ambivalence, then it is always possible to do something perfectly.

Answer from an actual game programmer. Look at it this way AoE2 runs at 30 frames per second. So it's actually a turn based game with a finite grid. So you could solve it for each turn/frame in the same way you would solve chess. You could give all the variables and relation between all variables a cost. Then recursively you could iterate between all possible outcomes of the turn. Then choose the best outcome. For that frame and calculate this for all upcoming frames. It would be computationally very heavy but not impossible.

are you sure that you don't drink a lot of diet sprite? because those are the side effects of drinking too much diet sprite

Not OP but that's extremely worrying is it the artificial sweeteners?

Second law: F = ma.

The first law is a special case where F = 0, meaning that a = 0. The third law doesn't matter if you are thinking about a single particle.

The second law says that if you know the force on a particle at all times, then you know the acceleration at all times. If you know the acceleration, then you know how much the velocity is changing. If you know the velocity, then you know how much the position is changing.

It's just a cascade of information.

That's it, really. So you need to know the original position and velocity, and the force at all times.

Dude, the world doesn't work In such a deterministic way. That's why quantum mechanics was created.

sounds too good to be true. But if it's real, I truly believe that we were born in the perfect time to witness the golden age of technological revolution of humanity.

never heard of this one but I'm a combo guy.

Concrete Math is reeeeeeeeeally good. Pretty much the classic discrete math book for mathematicians.

Generatingfunctionology is a cool next book to read. If you're into graph theory get anything by Bollobas.

If you want to study some "offbeat" combinatorics, check out Combinatorial Designs by Stinson. Best introduction to that field that I've seen.

>a foundation for computer science

Then why does it have mathematics in the title? Is it not a "Learn Python in 20 days" book?

Most human faculties that allow for higher reasoning afford the presence of racism. It's a very natural thing.

>>7643640
Many animals have a way of identifying family members, to avoid breeding with them; and a way of identifying things which are too different and thus that they shouldn't try to breed with (like other species). Racism is just the latter such mechanism being triggered.

Humans love screwing exotic things.

Qualitative research isn't necessarily bad

Might even be better than sociologists misunderstanding statistics and using it incorrectly

Social sciences aren't sciences though.

Are you really saying things like history, law, and economics are sciences?

>>7643701
Graduate level econ at a good school is nice

Many of them have undergrads in math

Your typical undergrad "economist" is dumb as a rock though ("why must I learn calculus? waaah waaah")

Replace this word with "clone" "identical child" or "knockoff" and your post becomes coherent.

You are you. And it is it. Any other definition of "I" results in disjointed ideas.

The first generation of brain uploads would be designed by meat brains, they would try to replicate meat stuff like emotions and individuality, but the computer brains would quickly realize there's no point to these limitations and would redesign themselves to be a single hivemind processing unit.
So basically humanity would be dead anyway.

>>7643609
Then we are back to the classic Theseus' paradox.
What makes "you" you? The cells in your body are being constantly replaced by newer ones.
Maybe the constant flow of electrical impulses and memories are your identity, but that can be carried over too.

Light years is for measuring time not distance you moron.
It's 500 light yards.
