If he were a live today do you think he'd be doing more than Elon Musk?

>>8846790
The bar was set pretty low at that point desu. Polymath-ism is dead.


If Da Vinci was born today he'd be shoehorned into some specific branch of science doing research on the bonds between two specific charges on rubidium atoms in a lab somewhere.

In 20 years time he'll produce a hand full of papers and no one would have heard of him.

I'll see if I have time in between the (((MarchAgainstTrump))) and the ((((Women's March)))) and all those conversations about ((((((Pepsi))))))

>Tomorrow morning.
Will be another meaningless far left protest against the Trump government under the guise of some relevant issue?

Unless you are far left this protest is not for you.

Realistically, what has Trump done to actual scientists to butt fluster them?

>>8846368
Just re-sleeve already

"Curvature" in this context means intrinsic curvature -- angles of triangles not adding up to 180 degrees etc.

>>8846368
It is not an analogy. Spacetime is actually curving. But Spacetime is not 2D, so that picture is not accurate.

Says a 1 page article.

I'll actually have to read that paper. It's not beyond the pale for the theory to be either wrong or woefully understood.

On an intuitive level, plate tectonics seems to gel in with the existence of mountains, volcanism, and the jigsaw shape of continents.

But intuitive doesn't mean true.

I'm graduating with a degree in geology in 2 weeks. So I've learned a lot that the public may be unaware of over the years.

Here's an image made from seismic imaging data of an actual plate subducting. Any theory you propose that denies plate tectonics must address this evidence.

Best of luck to you. lol

cool

If I had a nigger teaching me I would drop that class.

>>8847350
this lol

is there any reason to go to college other than the easy ego trip?

if you were actually intelligent you would just start a successful entrepreneurial venture. might as well pay for a piece of paper that says "I'm smart!" if you can't do that.

>Why do they do this?

Have you considered asking them instead? But really, who gives a shit, mind your own studies.

Depends on what you're doing and how much chemistry they're drilling into you in chem eng. That's usually a solid foundation for you to do learning in your own time. Pinch the notes from the later year undergrad chemistry courses from someone/somewhere.

Industrial Chemistry fag here - stuck between the world of chem and chem eng so they rape me with the worst of both and I walk out with an engineering degree.

>>8844095
Sophomore ChemE here

Two semesters of organic chemistry and a semester of physical chemistry are the prereqs at my school. Analytical chemistry is probably the only thing you're missing out on as a ChemE.

Any company hiring chemical engineers most likely has an R&D division. Go work for one of those and they'll pay for you to go to grad school for chemistry.

Going to grad school for chemistry right after getting your Bsc is gonna make it harder to get employed and you'll be in way more debt.

>>8844095
>If I finished my BS in ChemEng, would I run into any problems if I tried to go grad school for Chem since Chemeng requires more math/eng and less hardcore chem.

nah, just talk to your advisor and have him recommend the proper electives that would set you up for grad school success.

getting the engineering degree for your undergrad is smart. consider it career insurance in case you go bust in academia, you can still pay the bills and have a comfy middle class life.

in 2017, people will tell you a story about pressure

also, all militaries are cuckolds

>>8843841
Don't post just to demonstrate your sensibilities concerning any military.

Observation of a quantum mechanical phenomenon by a sentient being projects a disturbance in the temporal field which can change its outcome.

>>8841377
You don't understand QM.

Tip:
[math]e^\alpha = \frac{1}{e^{-\alpha}}[/math]

You should have learned this in highschool but I guess you actually dont know what to do.

Search for "rule of l'hospital" and you should be able to figure out the rest.

Exponentials beat polynomials

How many lumens does it take?

>>8846437
Doesn't work. Doesn't explain the observed dark matter signals in the CMB. Also, for other reasons, we have good estimates on the amount of normal matter in the universe, which means it cannot be black holes made from normal matter.

>>8846272
Negative mass is kinda like magnetic monopoles. It doesn't exist, but that doesn't mean it can't exist.

>>8846272
From what I understand, current physics doesn't explicitly forbid negative mass.

>>8846285
and pray tell how would you make a negative mass or magnetic monopole?

not until we begin teaching logic in elementary school in place of mathematics(math is a branch of logic) will this renaissance occur.

and the amount of "geniuses" will forever remain static as a percentage of the population, because it is a relative term.

It's easy to watch a well-made video and come away with a misplaced feeling of understanding.

>>8845806
That won't be allowed in the USA. Subservience is taught before anything else and anything that can usurp that is put down.

>>8845626
Literally look on pubmed, behavioral psychologists will often attach videos for their publications that have results nobody would believe without replicating them (and people will still replicate them before they believe it).

Of course, if you weren't too much of a brainlet to do a quick pubmed search or look up the journal of visualized experiments, you would know this.

You're not really going to find videos of human experiments for ethics reasons.
