At what age will you be moving there?
Will you be bringing your wife and/or family along as well?
sure i'd like me and my family to pay 500 billion for the trip and then die a horrible death
I would move if I could afford it and there was already a functional colony. But for that the ticket price would have to be less than $100,000.
Colonizing Mars is a meme. The only future I see for the planet is exploiting its natural resources. Mars is otherwise filled with too much radiation, has too little atmosphere and too little gravity to sustain human life.

If the earth is rotating eastward at approx. 1,000 mph how does a commercial plane traveling eastward at 500-600 mph ever reach its destination?
>>9052638
how is it possible to get up from your seat at the back of a train and ever walk to the front of the train if the train is moving at 30 mph?
>>9052638
More importantly, how retarded do you have to be for not noticing the 1000mph wind outside?
>>9052638
The atmosphere is rotating with the planet. A helicopter standing still hovering in one position doesnt move west at 1,000 mph now does it?

Is it normal that my resting heartbeat is 102? I feel light headed and my heart feels like it is beating quite hard. I am not overweight.
Same here. Went to ER one day after fainting from rapid heart beats and low BP. Turns out there's nothing wrong with me physiologically and it was panic attacks.
Panic/anxiety whatever you want to call it has a tendency to raise your heart rate through the roof even if you're just sitting down twirling your thumbs.
However, if you don't feel anxious and would not consider yourself stressed, you should see your Doctor ASAP. Hope this helps somewhat
>>9052403
Thanks, I do feel a bit anxious and stress but I don't understand why. I want to take my meds to get to work (modafinil) but I am worried it'll make my BPM even worse...
>>9052409
Well my BPM is over 100 right now as well and I am on Diazepam.
If there's one thing I learned from all this, it is that the heart is quite resilient and as long as your adrenal gland isn't activated (eg begin to panic over your health or some such) you should be able to make it through the day.
Have you ever had a panic attack before actually? It sounds like anxiety might be causing this. Especially considering palpitations.

My depressed friend posted this and he is acting very weird recently, can anyone see if its coded or if it can be decoded in some way? thanks

I don't care enough to do this for more than while I'm pooping right now but here are some clues.
Number spread is from 20-39, assuming they left out 7 letters from the alphabet (q,j,z,x,w, etc) it would be easy to find the code. Try A for 20 going forward.
If not then look for double letters, for example '30' appears 3 times in a row at one point, indicating either that two numbers together make one letter or there is no symbol for a space. Double letters are helpful because you can quickly find matches for e's and L's
>>9051133

You go to /pol/ and they tell you Einstein is a thieving Jew. Lorentz discovered Special Relativity. Hibert discovered General Relativity and they deserve the credit fuck Einstein. What is your response?
>>9049463
yes, you're correct
For pretty much any noteworthy scientific or mathematic discovery you're going to find several people that find the same answer at nearly the same exact time. Figuring out which one was "first" is impossible and mostly comes down to judgement calls like what exactly constitutes the full discovery and what are just steps towards it.
In the case of Einstein, he was the first one to bring the ideas together, publish, and popularize the theories, so he gets the credit from the public.
If you're going to complain about him taking scientific ideas from others, then you might as well call every mathematician a thief for stealing the idea of using numbers and for stealing the idea of using addition and subtraction etc. Science is pretty much just bringing together other peoples ideas and combining them in new ways, all of it.

Only people that are born can suffer and die. Without life there would be no death, no pain and no suffering.
No matter how successful you are during your life, it does not matter because :
a) you will be dead in less than a hundred years anyway,
b) the memory of you will eventually fade,
c) humanity will sooner or later go extinct, as the universe itself will sooner or later decay
Given the futility of life how could you intentionally reproduce and prolong this madness ? Every birth is a death penalty.

> Only people that are born can suffer and die. Without life there would be no death, no pain and no suffering.
true. giving birth is very immoral
>a) you will be dead in less than a hundred years anyway,
b) the memory of you will eventually fade,
c) humanity will sooner or later go extinct, as the universe itself will sooner or later decay
this doesn't matter though
>>9048819
>this doesn't matter though
I included it because some argue that we need to reproduce for humanity to go on do stuff, so I wanted to point out that whatever humans achieve either as individuals or as a species is pointless, therefore noone should worry about not contributing to this exercise in futility.

Ok, so the title sounds a bit dumb when you read it, but let me explain...
I used to believe that IQ was a definitive way to see how intelligent a person really is, but from experience I've been shown that it doesn't seem to always be the case...which confuses me to no end, because I can't quite pinpoint which quality it is that makes a person actually smart.
For instance I happen to know the IQs of several acquaintances and friends (I saw the results they got from testing so I know for sure). What baffles me is that some of the people who I deemed to be very intelligent and smart thinkers ended up having merely average IQs while the literally /x-tier superstitious guy that believes in easily debunkable conspiracy theories had a very high IQ.
His argumentation was full of logical fallacies and very stupid in general that noone sane would give him an IQ that high. I know another guy with a high IQ that is a complete moron in life.
I also got another friend with a high IQ that actually IS smart.
So what I'm asking is. How is it that some people with high IQ's end up being borderline retarded in their way of thinking while some average people just seem brilliant in comparison.
>>9048689
cont.
So, from what I've gathered from these people is this.
To me it seems, that critical thinking skills aren't necessarily related to our IQ. And someone who didn't bother to develop them in life will be...well...stupid regardless of his "actual" intelligence. I concluded this based on the fact that those guys used a lot of logical fallacies in their argumentation and probably in their thinking in general.
From what I've seen personally, /sci seems to put too much emphasis on the significance of IQ. There seems to be other important factors at play here along with it which determine how "smart" a person is. Otherwise these brilliant "average" people wouldn't exist. For example there have been very successful P.H.D's with barely above average IQ's. If all normal people were stupid, these individuals wouldn't exist.
Honestly, I see this here on /sci too:
>Someone writes a blatantly retarded post while claiming to have a high IQ.
>Gets called out on being retarded.
>Calls everyone a brainlet in retaliation.
Of course this is the internet and the person could just be lying, but still....I'm sure you've noticed the same thing here on this board.
I also want to mention that I haven't met a "brilliant" person below the IQ of 100. So there definitely is limit after which the person's innate puzzle solving skills and learning capability (basically what IQ is) just isn't enough to become smart.
I think that what I'm saying would be much more clear if you could accurately know the IQ of every person you meet in life. You'd be probably surprised at the results.
In my opinion we're missing something here. And the viewpoint that IQ is the only thing what determines someone's intelligence seems to be simplistic at best.
I'd like to hear your thought on this.
>inb4 brainlet insults
While not a genius I do happen to have an above average IQ. And even if I didn't it wouldn't really change my arguments. Such "insults" only hurt the discussion.
>>9048689
it's almost like IQ is not an accurate indicator of intelligence. It's almost like it measures a metric which is not the end-all metric of intelligence.
>>9048689
Having a logical mind, isn't the same thing as having common sense.
This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer online. I am trying to remove a solvent from my product in an oven at reduced pressure. There is a thermometer in the oven. Does the thermometer reflect the reduced pressure?
>>9052898
Whilst there are some thermometers that use air pressure, it's quite likely that yours is not going to be affected.
I doubt you'll even be able to create a vacuum strong enough to cause a problematic change in an oven anyway.
>>9052898
use a rotovap?
I dont think it should reflect the reduced pressure if it is completely housed in glass/plastic, airtight.
