we could end up doing tons of ridiculous shit to augment ourselves, with medical science we already taking baby steps with gmo humans, implanted artificial organs, and we will have nanobots fucking around with our biology at some point. also some people wanna copy themselves into tamagotchi creatures. dont know if that really counts as an upgrade for the glaring issue that it is a copy but whatever, rich people might make it happen. never really cared for the idea of building skynet and have it give birth to robo cthulu over rapidly shortening generations. im also unsure how well that would work out, we could do it by making something out of a desire to be lazy, but surly there would be some control over how it functions as we are inherently threatened by anything which could overcome our dominance. if we could become robo cthulu, well thats alot more appealing

Is life the ultimate meme? Does anyone in this thread realize their complete insignificance in relation to the entire universe? Once we die, every single thing we ever accomplished, vanishes. Maybe you will be that one great Mathematician, or Scientist that EVERYONE remembers. But guess what? In a billion years, they won't. Everything will literally be gone. And don't start with this after-life bull shit.

I come here to tell a story from the day I realized I was not a genius
>Be studying mathematics at uni
>I am outstanding in every class, getting perfect grades left and right in contrast to my peers who are mostly barely getting Cs
>I study, but as I also waste time with hobbies like 4chan and anime so I conclude that my high performance must be because I am a genius. Not like "smart", I mean pure genius like Neumann was in the sense that I don't even need to try to be outstanding.
>A round of finals comes along. We take the tests at around 11 AM but because of some problems with transporation I end up having to go to uni as early as 7 AM and I just wait it out in the library.
>See my peers
>They are just talking about random shit. Not only not studying, but also not even doing recreational mathematics. Just talking about random "xD weekend" shit. Meanwhile I had been here in the library studying for hours already.
>Eventually one of them comes to me and asks me a question.
>I answer but the question is so basic and fundamental to the test we were about to take so the only possibility was that these people did not even try to study these past few days.
>mfw I started studying 3 days ago and the night before this day I stayed up to almost midnight doing practice problems
>mfw the reason they don't do well in tests is because they don't study
>mfw the reason I do so comparatively well is simply because I study and they don't
>mfw I am not a genius
>mfw I am probably just a regular guy
And it was too late to change to engineering when I realized that. Is there any room for non-geniuses in mathematics?

They don't study because they're brainlets who can't comprehend the material.

all mathematicians spend their time like this. dedication solves problems. what makes you a brainlet is that it took you this long to figure it out. also please post more numberphile memes pls.

>what makes you a brainlet is that it took you this long to figure it out.
But Von Neumann was once told a theorem and then he proved it on the spot. He didn't need to "study". That is the mark of true, outstanding genius.
>also please post more numberphile memes pls.
I actually don't have anymore. Back in Aprill 22 of this year there was a numberphile memes thread and I liked them so much I decided to take a screen cap of a numberphile video and do my own meme. Yes, I was the one who made the pic in the OP but I actually never posted it because after reading and re-reading my jokes I thought they were not funny enough to compete in such a magnificent thread. Do you like my jokes anon? Am I a good numberphile meme producer?
Why don't we find our family members sexually attractive? Is it that our pheromones are the same/similar so it doesn't affect each other? Or is it the kind of bonding we have when we are little kids that prevents our feelings to develop into sexual natured ones with age and grosses us if the idea even comes to our minds? Or is it just morals we are taught growing up, could we feel sexual attraction to a close family member if we never meet them until adulthood and don't know we are related? Would we know something was off, like in Back to the Future, when the mom kisses his son he realises that it feels different?

this might be complete bollocks but
i read somewhere i think (cant remember so not sure if this is really true or reliable) that its like a biological preprogrammed thing in early life from growing up with a sibling. and that siblings that dont grow up together because of their genetics and not having this block have a greater risk of finding eachother attractive so you often do get stories of siblings growing apart, meeting and falling in love (often not even knowing they are siblings)
>>
>>9029759
>Why don't we find our family members sexually attractive?
That is not true at all, remember that incest is a thing. I would say that the majority of us don't feel something sexual when it is about our family because of the "is immoral", it is something social. The places where incest is considered bad is where you are less prone to feel sexual attraction to a family member. There are countries where incest is completely legal.
>>
>>9029802
Interesting.
>>9029814
I see, but peeping on people is also immoral, but if you accidentaly see someone naked without them knowing you can still get aroused whether it's immoral or not. Body reactions don't listen to morals. But let's say if you see your parent or sibling naked, you feel disgusted.
Also, your relationship is scarred forever if you see a sibling/parent in sexual activities. There should be something beyond morals. Even in those countries, I bet it's more incest between cousins etc, instead of parent/sibling. Rare cases where that also happens is expected, though. But those are anomalies.

More and more women are craving the phenotype that gentiles lack and Jews have (large cranium). Filthy goys simply cannot compete with Ashkenazi mathematical and linquistic intelligence. Ashkenazi men have, on average, a full standard deviation ofver whites in the IQ department. Einstein, Fischer, Neumman, Bohr, Feynman, Oppenheimer, Salk, etc. Face it goy bois. Jews are born to lead, goys are born to follow and serve.

>have to pay $100 more dollary doos because jew assign considers it a different book
I can't take this shit anymore. It's like the professors purposely do this shit to fuck over students. Why the fuck would you purposely use the old edition of the book when the school bookstore sells the new edition that was used just one semester ago. Higher education costs are absurd as fuck and approaching healthcare cost levels of jewery.

Not, much. Even when it comes to quality, a lot of our most popular and admired artists weren't exactly top tier intellectuals.
Most mammals and avians have some limited capacity to be creativite, particularly if they are trained for it, so... There's no "what if", it already is.
Granted, I'm making some assumptions for your definitions of "intelligence" and "creative".
>>
>>9028754
that maybe true for artists etc though i wdnt be sure, but i mean on a species to species level. i feel like creativity requires a certain ability to make inferences that requires intelligence; to be able to view things from an abstract high dimensional space atleast implicitly otherwise you simply wouldnt be able to produce the ideas and affordances that mark being creative

/sci/, is inbreeding really more likely to produce birth defects? Or is that propaganda?

Yes.
Inbreeding makes it more likely that recessive genetic disorders occur, because it is much more likely that two parents who are related carry the same recessive disease alleles compared to two parents who aren't related.

I fell for the engineering meme. I was promised high pay, lots of jobs, lots of math, instead I got an over saturated market and managing people instead. So after I payed of all my student loans I quit, went back to study pure math, and now im a farmer. and a lot happier than I was as an engineer.

Damn, exactly what I expect. Now I am even more motivated to become an engineer. (Not a sarcasm, btw.)
