Some of the most important ageing research articles have come out in these last few years... "life-extension" is a meme anyway, the scientific equivalent is ageing research.

No such thing.

How should one go about learning to integrate well? Is there a good resource to teach yourself various methods, preferably not just how to do them but to understand how they work as well?

Are there better texts for Topology I should be reading?
>>9166062
He should stick with point set topology until hr develops nice intuition
>>9166103
In retrospect, I don't analysis is going to give one an intuitive feel for the material. But I think algebraic/differential topology/geometry is a good way to train one's intuition. And it's generally more enjoyable than pure topology in my experience.

My gf is convinced that the earth is flat.
Thoughts on that?
>>9165708
There will be people who think the world is flat even if we ever become a type-2 interstellar civilization and space travel is regular. Do not under estimate the human ability to believe their own bullshit.

Guys
I figured out why everything exists. Its actually pretty simple to demonstrate. The reason for existence is that 1+1 always equals 2, no matter what. Because math is consistent, and incomplete, it is infinite, and real. It being infinite means that while it all exists at once...it actually can't, because nothing can be infinite, so instead time emerges and you get universes with interdependent undetermined phenomena. In most universes this may not go far, but if self perceiving life exists then a perception of time would too.
prove me wrong fags
>nothing can be infinite
pretty big assumption
math isnt "real"
