I've heard that the risks associated with reproducing with a first cousin for the sole purpose of procreation are the same as a 40 year old woman having children.
Are the genetic defects overstated and being debunked?
I also heard that recessive genes can be purged by inbreeding. How does this work?

My cousin is smart and pure and I want to marry her desu. We're both of above average IQ so our children would be too.

Don't procreate with your family.

Just do it and have fun with your downie retard spawn. You can try a couple times for a normal one, most of the downie should die by like 20.

we'll have tests done before they're born and abort them if they show signs of genetic diseases.

I've spent many years thinking about this issue, and I've come to a conclusion: time does not exist. Time is a completely artificial human construct that we use to measure the change in atoms around us.

Imagine there was an endless white void. Inside this white void, there were only two things: a cup of water, and you, a human onlooker.

Now let's say that one day, this cup of water spilled. As a human, because we have the ability to perceive the change in atoms around us, we apply the rules of time to this situation, and thus we recognize the difference: the cup of water was once full, now it is spilled. We have a memory of it being full, now we have a memory of it spilling. Time. The measured difference between the form of atoms.

Now, let's imagine that the cup magically re-assembled itself. Every last drop of water went right back into the cup, and was in the exact position that it was before it spilled. Nothing changed. The difference in "time" between 5 minutes before the cup spilled, and 5 minutes after the cup was re-filled, is completely identical. The only difference? The little memory that we, humans, have stored in our subconscious that tells us this event happened. If you, the human onlooker were to die, that event never would have happened, because the only thing telling us it happened was a memory inside your noggin.

Time doesn't exist. It's all in your head.

if the past existed it means time exists

Except the past didn't exist. The only thing telling you the past existed is the memory inside your head telling you that it did.

So I did recently look into some stuff about the Nazis building flying saucers and stuff (if someone is interested here a thread about the stuff https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/126352757 )
However one thing mentioned frequently is the Schumann levitator which is apparently used to propulse the saucer. Now my question is if a structure like pic related (which allegedly is the schumannlevitator) would be able to let things hover and overcome gravity

Above study concludes that Antarctica is gaining more ice on the Western side ( Under Aus ) then what is melting on the Eastern side ( Indian ocean ) and Arctic combined.
Sea levels rising anyway?
Ocean temperature increase enough to rise sea levels to the point we're at now? WTF is going on. Somethings not right.

It's elegant, concise, takes up only one line of the paper, and it's easy to catch any mistakes you made. Not to mention it makes you consciously think about order of operations, which is the biggest problem most people have with equations like this.

That's actually kind of a clever analogy for teaching that shit.

Of course, the user will run into trouble with stuff that isn't really invertible like even exponents and roots but that's okay if they're warned about it.

Recent high school grad here. I'm planning on majoring in math, but have 0 background in proofs. Could anyone recommend a good book as an introduction to proofs? I'd like to study it over the summer.

Try a book on some easy topic like basic number theory or basic algebra, the only way to learn proofs is by doing them

if retrovirus like HIV can only be transmitted through humans. why we don't simply put all AIDS patients in AIDS city?
in 30-50 years AIDS won't exist anymore and we can stop shelling billions into HIV research
we have a chance to eliminate the problem for good, but we rather endanger people and keeping patients alive on medicine

This is a great idea, mainly because I have had it too. It would work. If all people were rational and went voluntarily it would be great. All people are not rational.
Best we can do is only sleep with people we trust. Unfortunately for most people this excludes all possible mates.
