I'm 100% serious.
This guy is getting out of hand; he's going to take over the world.
This tunnel thing was supposed to be a meme.
>>9051954
Does his boring technology have any improvement over any other traditional tunneling machine?
Remember when SpaceX was declaring Elon Musk has nothing to do with Hyperloop?
It's all part of the plan.
Read this and compare it to Cucsk's 'Hyperloop Whitepaper' (protip: it's plagiarism at best):

Thus we don't know. He claims an improvement to the order of 1000 magnitude can be achieved. How? I would bet my money on nuclear TBMs.
Is it possible to have voltage without current? Suppose you somehow manage to remove all free (or free-able) electrons from a system, would that make it a perfect resistor?
i.e. what happens to an electric circuit when all the electrons in the battery/wires/etc. are suddenly gone? (and it exists in a vacuum, of course)
particles
That is a question worth thinking about
>>9055869
>Is it possible to have voltage without current?
We call those power outlets. You probably have some in your house.
>what happens to an electric circuit when all the electrons in the battery/wires/etc. are suddenly gone?
You have the most positvely charged body in the world. And it wouldn't work.
if homosexuality is genetic, why do homosexuals still exist? since they cannot have offspring shouldn't evolution have wiped them out?
>>9055726
i guess the first thread didnt have the answers you want so you have to create a new one?
homosexuality isn't genetic, why do you think so many people turn gay in prison?
>>9055728
being raped =/= turned gay
Daily reminder for /sci/entists who don't understand the /sci/entific method and are mistakenly certain that aliens don't exist.
It doesn't matter if they exist or not since we'll never find nor reach them.
>>9055452
They could reach us.
And the fact that there is no evidence is not evidence that they exist, what is your point?
Do you seriously believe that the past is stuck into a frozen trail as time passes, /sci/? And worse yet, do some of you actually believe the future is pre-determinated?
I really doubt that the theory of relativity really is incompatible with presentism. It just doesn't make sense that time should be a continuous trail constantly building up like a fucking sci-fi movie. Do you seriously believe that every event that has ever occured in history is still existing somewhere in the frozen trail of time?
There's no necessity for time to be recording itself. I bet we would get some interesting results if someone, anyone, tried to interpret relativity this way.
The universe is just an eternal four-dimensional picture, which brains, due to universal limits of computation, interpret as a continuous stream of three-dimensional cross-sections.
>>9054743
More like you guys just let your imagination fly too high.
>>9054736
>Do you seriously believe that every event that has ever occured in history is still existing somewhere in the frozen trail of time?
what are you talking about? what does that have to do with relativity or a sci-fi movie?
So, who /fe/ here and will attend the FE2017?
How is that something settled in ancient greek is being challenged today?
Because with the invention of the internet stupid people became able to share their dumb opinions with other dumbasses.
>>9054598
How do we solve this problem?
I forgot, why do we hate Michio Kaku again?
>>9052893
bcuz I iz smart kaku is dumb
>>9052893
I like this man but futurology = (pleasant) meme
We hate the retarded pop sciculture that creates people who rather watch YouTube videos to learn shit than actually learning the material.
What was this board's consensus on free will again? I forgot.

Algebra shouldn't be a required class because it's the #1 thing keeping non-White people from getting a job, says chancellor of California community college system

>>9051768
As a mathematician I pretty much agree that it shouldn't be required.
But looking at people struggling with such trivial crap just makes me laugh. People that stupid deserve to suffer. Keep it is as a requirement just to spite them. Heck, give me an university and I will give those faggots an algebra class for each semester. And here is the catch: each algebra course will actually be the fucking same. I swear we will see people who pass the first course with a C- and then go on to the second and then fail that one, top kek. Fucking retards.

I genuinely want to feel happy for people succeeding academically and in life but I feel a sort of perverse joy when people fail. Why?
>>9048220
Because you aren't competent. You see competent and successful people as a threat.
>>9048220
who is the QT on the left?
>>9048231
I considered that. They're not successful, they fail in things that I've already accomplished. That's what makes it bizarre.
>Astrobiologists at Arecibo radio telescope issued an interesting statement about a 10-minute observation, in May, of the red dwarf star Ross 128. This is one of the nearest stars to Earth at only 10.89 light-years away. It seems the star apparently emitted “some very peculiar signals.”
They aren’t saying “aliens,” but the natural explanations have weaknesses. They’ll be observing the star again TODAY on Sunday, July 16, 2017.
IS IT CONTACT TIME, /sci/?

We keep finding things like this, but it is down-played all the time by the media and government organisations, if questioned.
Why do we keep letting them hide the truth?
Rebel now, we live in a noisy universe!
Please don't observe us, we don't bother you guys.

I could eat at McDonald's and get fat and it means nothing. Working hard is working stupid. Or is it?
Do I need to cultivate autism and the ability to work on one thing for hours on end? Or is this never going to happen?

>living in anarchy
where? i want to come
im an anarchist and i cant escape authority
i cant even legally occupy land where i live because some walmart executives and ranchers own it all and keep calling the cops for trespassing on my own property

if you dont give yourself your own purpose, someone else will try and define your purpose. Be very careful here, an understanding that "nothing matters" can be beautiful or terrible.
just be yourself
I want a calculator that I will be able to take through physics and math at the university level.
What are your recommendations?
Also general calculator thread.
any scientific
inb4 you're going to a memeschool that allows graphing calculators

Kek why not take gender studies instead?
>>9054388
a casio fx82ms will work for nearly anything, im still using mine at my engineering job when im away from a computer and I got it when I started highschool 15 years ago, havent even changed the batteries.
It doesnt have complex numbers or matrix support though, which depending on your major may be handy (I just did it by hand every time I needed to do it, but it takes a bit longer) I cant remember the model bu the slightly newer casio does have both those things, so I think thats the current best calculator (unless you want meme functions like a color screen and shit)
Am I an idiot for pursuing a mechanical engineering career in nuclear energy? Is a 100% renewable grid really a good idea that can renders badeloaf power redundant?
I'm starting to question my decision to accept that NRC scholarship.
>>9054298
Renewable energy employs more people than all other energy sources together.
You would be an idiot for not going renewable energy.
>>9054427
+ Though it doesn't really matter, with a mechanical engineering degree you can still switch fields easily.
Anyone else suffer from the constant urge to pull out body hair?

Is it curable?
