I want to learn "Geometric" view of algebraic topology. I have fair amount of idea in group theory

I appreciate the suggestion but I am not into that. Could you at least tell me which pages have liberal propaganda so that I can skip them?

Can we have a purely scientific discussion on treating homosexuality and transsexualism?
What hypotheses have shown the most promise? Which areas are worth further study?
There was a study a few years ago where bisexuality was induced in mice by altering them to not have serotonin receptors, but not full homosexuality. As far as I know though, SSRI's don't reverse homosexuality in humans and generally decrease sex drive. Even drugs that flood the brain with serotonin like MDMA don't change the sexuality of humans. What is your interpretation of the serotonin system on the sexual orientation of humans?

>Can we have a purely scientific discussion on treating homosexuality and transsexualism?
Probably not but I'll try.
>What hypotheses have shown the most promise?
Not 'social constructs'. It's better to view transsexualism as a behavior, where a member of one gender behaves and identifies as a member of another. There may be a cognitive root to this, but that should be viewed as beyond our current grasp. Social constructs, on the other, render gender impossible to study scientifically. If gender is whatever you want it to be, there's no point in defining it. It looses all semantic value.

Why are shorter people usually smarter?
>>9063926
Less work for the heart to pump blood to the brain.
Same reason shorties live longer.
Cite some sources.
Is this like when people say that those with high IQ are unattractive? Because the opposite turned out to be true when the data came in.

Is there any evidence to suggest that dotted line exists?

The very existence of the laws of physics means that it certainly does.

Indeed but did you know 0=infinity?
Reminder that 0=infinity and everything else is just autism.

Reminder that schizophrenia does not mean profundity.
Infinites were a mistake.
>Cantor's diagonal argument

>Zeno's paradox

>Ross–Littlewood problem
The list goes on and on. The so called "solutions" to these problems (the ones that have solutions) are hideous abortions tacked onto real math and logic. Most of modern math is only usable in a tiny subset of the problems it can be applied to. Finite length statements/equations that need to be decidable in a finite amount of time, e.g. all formal systems, cannot be expected to properly deal with infinites.
Thanks for reading, I know most of you are too indoctrinated to agree.
If everything is all scientific and logical where does consciousness come from?
And what started the universe (before the big band)?
Why do laws of physics exis, how are they set?

I am trying to figure this out myself op. I wonder why the scientists ignore this.

Making a presentation slides based off of this.
Excuse the writings and markings, but how do I make a diagram like the one in pic related? And how do I type in math notation and insert it into my slides?
Thinking of using slides.com or Google slides, which is better for something like this?
>>9063749
latex beamer slides
>>9063749
https://www.overleaf.com/
>>9063778
>>9063784
Checked both of those out, and while I thank you guys for your suggestions, I find that latex is very difficult to deal with.
Not difficult in the sense that it is hard to learn, but that it is hard to work with. I couldn't find how the padding works. It is much easier for me to write something in HTML/css and position elements how I want.
So, how do I just make the diagram and put it into slides.com or Google slides?
What about your calligraphy?
>>9063667
Are you female? (not trying to be mean)
Seems superficial IMO. As long as it is decipherable.
it's function > it's form
(form is a part of the function to an extent in the case of writing)
>>9063667
is calligraphy really /sci/ related? (I'm a newfag, maybe there's occasional handwriting/notetaking threads).
Actually, I could totally see a: "post your iq / education level / major and handwriting" thread.
>>9063667
waste of time.
which is better?
Gauss or Tao?
Riemann or Serre?
Galois or Wiles?
Dedekind or Jacobson
Cauchy or Ahlfors?
Abel or Floer?
Weierstrass or Nirenberg?
>>9063540

Sometimes I wonder if it is just once you are out of a stifling environment (Nonintellectual parents/peers and the pressure to appease them), childish addictions (TV (it used to be OK when Discovery, Natgeo, History channel weren't all Hippies, Conspiracies, and reality-History), vidya games, WEED, social media)

Time IS NOT the 4th dimension
(am i correct? please fix me if i'm wrong)
>>9063358
The 4th dimension is speed. Proof me wrong.
>>9063422
No, the 4th dimension is meat dumbass
It is only in relativity, except only rural and suburban retards use that. City people use quantum mechanics.
Why do so many people religiously believe in science and think it can do everything given enough time?
And if you tell them that there are limitations and what they are talking about is impossible or extremely unlikely, they go crazy and say "They laughed at the Wright brothers also" , "They said the moon landing was impossible also" etc.
Is it just bad education?
popsci and scifi
>>9063255
Obviously because that's what all us scientists here have conditioned them to believe OP, so we can get everlasting funding.
What are that limitations?
Hey /sci/ could evolution create an organic ball bearing? Something an animal could use to very quickly move downhill or so? Like a Turtle having some on their stomachs?
How could an organic bearing even function? I imagine it would never form naturally though.
>>9063254
how would the bearings repair themselves?
>>9063254
I suppose it isn't impossible. It'd likely work as a internally lubricated socket of cartilage with a dense boney sphere inside of that acting as the ball. I don't really think that this would ever arise out of nature however, most terrain is not designed for wheeled transit. Thus the creature would have to live somewhere like the American south west with it's flat terrain and smooth rocky surfaces for this to arise as a valuable mechanism.
>>9063254
Ball bearings? Try complex nano machinery.
What does /sci/ think about this? First 60 seconds.
