A good portion of the "greatest scientists" lived long before humans knew what bacteria was. No one is infallible.

That being said, back in the day excercise meant going for a walk after lunch or some shit. Now days it's mostly about maximizing muscle mass for use in attracting the other gender, and there's honestly not a much of a point in that. Finding a good middle ground is difficult, and most "intelligent minds" or most people at least simply don't give a fuck and just do what they want.

dunno, why don't you try it?

That's not helpful

Your mom's weight divided by two, so that is 2↑↑↑↑↑3

that would've made it like 60 pounds

It better be logical or it would be wrong.

The point is, doing it this way isn't more efficient than doing it the traditional way. It also hasnt been proven to improve critical reasoning. So what's the point in wasting all this money to reinvent the wheel?

Fuck off

And here I thought all memes were detrimental.

The existence of qualia still hasn't been explained. People's consciousness can change after a concussion, but that still doesn't conclusively prove the materialist worldview. For example, the brain may just be an interface between itself and a higher-dimensional entity (the source of consciousness)

Some may scream Occam's razor, but those people can't explain how wavelengths between 400 and 700 nm somehow magically become the qualia of color. Even if you explain every physical process that occurs between the eyes, optic nerve, and visual cortex, you still haven't explained where 'color' comes from.

Jesus fucking CHrist, what the hell is this shit? Tell me this is fake, please!

He's right.

Mathematics and science only explain the knowable. But there is an entire realm of knowledge that is unknowable.

>>8825243

Retard. Maybe it's unknowable for a brainlet like you. Fag.

Here you go, faggot. All dots can be accessed via these four, straight lines

>>8824828
Those are five straight lines and you couldn't have dont that without retracing a line.

hmmmmmm

What's wrong with it?

INFINITY DOESN'T EVEN EXIST. SHOW ME A SET OF INFINITE APPLES

Bet you any money the announcement will be a seminar on the possibility of water on other celestial bodies. The only thing about Europa they could possibly say that would excite me is that it has active hydrothemal events.

They seem to have one of these every other week. MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT: We found what looks like pubic hair near the exhaust port of the rover. Proof positive of alien life unless Carl is a pervert and didn't clean up before we sent it.

Refrigerators get hot bro. It's about redirecting heat elsewhere in order to make one localized portion of the refrigerator cold.

>>8830172
Yeah, I get that they have to redirect the heat out of it, but how do they get the cold inside?

>>8830168

Molecules have to overcome each other's attractive force in the expansion value causing them to slow down/cool down and suck in heat from the surroundings. Then they are compressed (work done here since gases want to equalize their pressure in the whole volume), and they regain the energy from separating them causing them to speed/heat up. This heat is vented out in the back.

Haven't you done thermodynamic yet?

Study philosophy then? But you're asking stupid advice questions on /sci/ so really don't study anything as you'll never make any contribution.

If you want to understand people, take cources on marketing and advertisement.

>>8829886
>my only interest is philosophy

well golly gee idk go for fucking philosophy then? you pretty much answered your question. maybe take CS or engineering if you're afraid you wont get a decent job in the future

Isaac Newton wasn't known to the scientific world until about the 1990s with the rise of the internet

>>8829691
They probably didn't know that Newton was a plagiarist.
