What does this mean? What would happen if the cost decreased to $0.1?

It means employers can finally mandate cheap genetic tests so that they can filter out retards and drug addicts.

>cost per genome
People will buy more genomes?
Hell, at 0.1$ they would give genomes for free.

maybe if we ran short of genomes, the price would rise again

What is the correct order for learning algebra, analytical geometry and calculus?
Currently I'm doing Basic Mathematics by Lang and after that I plan to finish algebra then move to precalculus then eventually calculus. I don't know where analytical geometry fits in all this.
Also, what books do you people recommend for algebra and analytical geometry?

i read larson-hostelter precalculus but skipped the additional analytical geometry topics (ch10)
then you need to learn limits and hyperbolas, cause some calc textbooks omit them. after that you go into calculus.
i went from knowing 0 math to finishing calc 2 in 2 months flat, it's not that hard. good algebra is basically the most important thing to know
>>
>>9162455
I think it goes
calculus -> real analysis -> complex analysis-> topology -> smooth manifolds -> differential geometry -> complex manifolds and Hodge theory
calculus -> algebra -> commutative algebra -> algebraic geometry (classical) -> algebraic geometry (postmodern)
and then you have the proper prereqs for analytic geometry

Because it is not divisible by anything other than one and itself
And because you touch yourself at night

73 : 0.5 = 146

>>9160196
It's not divisible by any positive integer besides 1 and itself.

Alright Autistic question time.
If you cut an object with something sharp like a knife, is a small amount of the material simply pushed down underneath the knife (literally under the very narrow blade edge) as is cuts, or is every single bit of the material pushed to the sides of the blade edge as it cuts?
1000 hours in paint for poor representation of what I'm trying to describe.

/pol/ poster posted this proof making me quiestion life itself. Find an error in this proof if you can.
1. The fine-tuning of the fundamental physical constants of the universe is due either to physical necessity, chance, or design.
2. Proponents of the anthropic principle assume that because observations of the universe must be compatible with the conscious and sapient life that observes it, it is unremarkable that this universe has fundamental constants that happen to fall within the narrow range thought to be compatible with life -- which is a modal scope fallacy, i.e. it equivocates the necessity of the universe if conscious and sapient life that observes it exists, with modal necessity, i.e. it confuses "necessary if" and "necessary."
3. All physical things have a logical cause.
4. All logically-caused things are contingent, i.e. it is possible for them not to be caused.
5. Therefore, all physical things are contingent.
6. The fundamental physical constants are a physical thing.
7. Therefore, the fundamental physical constants are contingent.
8. Therefore, the fine-tuning of the universe is not due to physical necessity, and the universe, as it is, is not the only possible world.
9. There is an infinite number of possible worlds in which the fine-tuning of the universe and all its antecedents do not exist or are in an infinite number of different states.
10. Therefore, the probability of a possible world in which the fundamental constants exist and fall within the narrow range thought to be compatible with life is ℵ_0/ℵ_0^2 (tends to 0).
11. Therefore, the probability that the fine-tuning of the universe is due to chance is ℵ_0/ℵ_0^2.
12. n/n^2=1/n
13. Therefore, the probability that the fine-tuning of the universe is not due to chance is (ℵ_0 - 1)/ℵ_0 (tends to 1).
14. Therefore, it is due to design.

>1. The fine-tuning of the fundamental physical constants of the universe is due either to physical necessity, chance, or design.
Define fine tuning
After you've done that prove that our constants are the only ones that create a stable universe
>3. All physical things have a logical cause.
All things inside this universe must have a cause.
We don't know if that holds true for the very beginning or even before that

I really do believe in a higher being.

In step 10 he assumed that the infinity of universes that can sustain life is smaller than the one of all universes
It might sound obvious but how do u prove that?

You don't need to study for the GRE.

>>9163989
Some people may not need to, but I believe I do.
>>
>>9163992
Then brush up on your geometry, trig, algebra, and reading comprehension, because the general test is basically SAT 2.0. There's no college level math or reading questions on there, but you might get tripped up if you haven't touched the lower level stuff in a while.

There seems to be a body of evidence out there that suggests that nicotine acts as a boost to memory and function -
Obviously, the downsides of taking nicotine through cigarettes and tobacco well outweighs that potential nootropic ingestion.
My question, then, is whether other systems of nicotine delivery - such as gum, or dermal patches - could be used? And if so, is it a worthwhile cost-benefit (nootropic boost vs lifetime addiction to the demon nicotine) to invest in?

Nicotine withdrawal can still send someone into panic attacks, depression and even fevers. Not worth it.
>>
>>9163628
But that's withdrawal.
Say if you were just chewing gum throughout the day, and withdrawal wasn't an issue.

Gum works really well but don't go overboard and don't stress your jaws too much.

the brain need input from the senses to act/react. in your scenario the brain wouldn't even know that it is in space or travelling with lightspeed.

It might mean that they have taken a good look at people and dogs and come to the self-evident conclusion that people are cunts and dogs are not. Cats don't count. They are cunts too.
