Junior in EE in the fall. I wanted to do Physics desu but too late now to graduate in 4 years in that. Doing applied physics stuff in EE anyways. Planning on grad school, MS for sure, maybe PhD if I really want to later down the line. Peers seem alright, I dont really have any friends or talk to anyone in my EE major, all my friends are in other majora.

After reading this cover to cover I plan to dig into abstract algebra.

Let a, b, and c be integers.
[math]a^3+b^3+c^3 = 33[/math]
Only brainlets can't find a solution to this problem.

Though not a popular subject over here.
I'm trying to make a nutritional meal with the OPTIMAL amount of macronutrients and vitamins.
Can someone assist me in finding peer reviewed articles that demonstrate the most effective nutritional profile for health and fullness as a meal.

no, I don't think anyone anywhere can
fake science disciplines tend to publish contradictory studies all the time
I would go for variety, high protein, tons of different colors of veggies
>>
>>9025841
You are wasting your time. It's not a knowable thing. Too individual. Not to mention everyone is clueless to the point they couldn't design a good study if they tried.
Start with food allergy tests to make sure you aren't reacting to proteins in this or that.
Then just stick to the most nutrient dense foods like greens, butter, sea salt, grass fed meats and offal (organ meat).
Then just see how you look and feel. You'll figure out you feel amazing with more fat I predict.
>>
>>9025849
I am actually kind of shocked to here fake science publications exist. I always thought that was the purpose of peer reviews. Being in the field myself it is disheartening to hear.
For what purpose? Funded by companies in order to create confusion and demonstrate certain ingredients are not detrimental?
I like the variety and veggie advice , thank you.

The shortest side is the hypotenuse, the side relative to the main angle is called the adjacent and the side on the other side of the non-adjacent angle is called the opposite.

if you're under 30 then probably in your lifetime. But it will not be available for sale and only the extremely rich and politically connected will get access to it.

Thought experiment regarding Heisenberg Cut and the role of a conscious observer, based on the fact that the double slit detectors are not what's actually collapsing the waveform:
>Train a dog to bark when a monitor goes white, do nothing while it's dark
>Connect monitor to particle detectors of a double slit experiment
The dog is a "lower" consciousness than humans, I think it can be agreed upon. Is the dog in a superposition until a human hears him bark?
If not, what if we trained a rat to press a button instead. Is the rat in a superposition until we register the button press?
If not, what if we hooked up the detectors to some UV lamps over some agar plates and grew some bacteria. When they filled the dish, an alarm sounds. Are the bacteria in a superposition until we hear the alarm?
If not, where do we draw the line? Consciousness discussion, basically.

Why such a hostile response? Does the question not have an answer, or do you just not understand the question?
>>
>>9025577
>or do you just not understand the question?
I think it's OP who doesn't understand his own question. Double slit has nothing to do with consciousness, but with an observer. In terms of physics, a rock can be an observer, if the rock is interacting with it somehow.

Because H1B and Asia are taking their jobs or lowering the wages. Either chinks or the govt shilling STEM causing old dogs get laid while new grads are flooding the market and replacing them for a fraction of the cost.
After all this they find themselves in the software side because EE has negative job growth. I wouldnt want to be a EE

Consider all the things that occur within a single square meter of the universe.
What would be the computational power needed to comprehensively simulate everything that occurs within it?
Your computer operates at gigahertz, billions of clock cycles per second. What would be the actual time-step between each "frame" of the universe?
Consider that such a process is occurring throughout all of the known universe.
Why would such power be wasted in such a way?

You would have to have some pretty beefy stuff. You would have to start with quantum foam and work your way up, simulating every law that's in existence, and I guarantee if we successfully did it with modern tech it'd be more like a 500cm instead of 1m. You have to model electron clouds, atoms, density of the gas or absense of. You'd probably have to run a supercomputer, because successfully doing it means you can run a simulation of theoretically /anything/ in that square meter. You could model a full human face in 100% detail down to individual workings of synapses. Think that's modern tech?

I found this little bugger...about 2-3 feet long, with digging claws, a WIDE salamander like face, but...nails, with mammal like hind legs, a completely hairless and slippery skin, and...NO bone structure in its front, a salamander like face, I am assuming it's dogfish, or woodchuck...but NONE have been confirmed and my neighborhood is buzzing about this thing. It was found and seen by dozens and was found on the back bay near a creek...no woodchuck could or I THINK could get to, however NO fish has digging claws with the nails. I thought of decomposition, however that occurs in a spotty and incongruent way...not a complete lack of any hair or sign of it, no sign of any facial mammalian like face, I'm and we are ALL baffled as it's not put in an area of ALOT of traffick where people would find it, but in a VERY mucky salt/brackish creek opening to a shallow and small bay that leads to the Ocean. It's near where TWA Flight 800 exploded, and actually is where the plane was brought in and everything East Moriches NY. We had Plum island Animal laboratory which the tides would pull any strange...thing toward the south shore, we have so, so, so many strange and abnormal events (Brookhaven National Lab, a Airbase, and submarine base off the coast), the wetlands are very unique and part of a former OLLLDDD chemically filled duck farm that flows to the end...it's certainly an area where if a species was to be found it would be here. It's likely some prank, (very elaborate), or animal that had an astronomically small chance of uniform decomposition but...idk and it creeped me out all day and it did with everyone. ANY answers appreciated. Thanks
