How is dyslexia supposed to work if supposedly dyslexic people are capable of reading and writing proper sentences?

Seems like a meme affliction like depression to me.

>get tested for dyslexia as a kid
>Turns out I'm just shit at it and need to stop being lazy.

>people who don't read regularly
>surprised they can't read as well as people who do

I think I've become a brainlet.

I transferred over credits earned from AP courses in high school (AP Calculus BC from junior year and AP Statistics from senior year) and I haven't taken a math class since high school. Currently a junior. I feel like I've lost all of my math abilities since going on to college. Should I torrent a textbook and try to redeem myself or is it too late?

>>8806760

why do people ask if it's too late?

fucking do it you faggot, stop waiting for other people's validation to improve yourself in every aspect of your life

>>8806760
Do you even need math?
What is your career plan?

To slay a dragon and destroy the ring.

Under what conditions though?
Isn't the majority of the brain mass just the brain becoming more efficient by pruning unused neural connections? What about the glial cells and the other material besides neurons that makes up brain matter?

God damn it /sci/ I thought we were over this.

At what point does the electromagnetic wavelength associated with red actually become the subjective perception of the color red? How can you explain the emergence of "red" qualia?

Queuing theory.

This screenshot is a good example of benign-violation, yet why is it funny there's a new picture of him?

Is it just a callback to a joke that follows one of these theories?

the less intelligent you are, the less aware of the fact you are unintelligent you become

just look at the african country

That's not true. Even brainlets realize they're brainlets, but it takes a long while of hardcore depressive realism and self reflection.

t. 110 iq

>>8807257
Well, yes. But it's slightly indirect. It's not that there is some genetic/polygenic encoding for "poverty" like there is for height or something.

But the modern economy rewards certain traits and punishes others, and those traits/tendencies often have underlying genetic components. g-factor/IQ, obviously. But also things like time orientation.

>>8807257
education > genetics

You can ionize parts of the air with a laser and then shoot a current through it. Artificial lightning.

This is /sci/ you ignorant cunt. Our mission in life is to reply with some smart-assed non-answer when someone asks a stupid question to make ourselves appear intellectually superior.

Now GTFO

What do you mean? Give an exemple.

Also if I write a letter in one of your questions your program will crash.

[code] int input;
float grams_per_mile;
int odometer;
const char* pollutants[] = {
"Carbon monoxide", "Hydrocarbons",
"Nitrogen oxides", "Nomethane hydrocarbons"
};

for(int i = 0; i < 4; ++i){
printf("(%d) %s\n", (i+1), pollutants[i]);
}
printf("Enter pollutant number: ");
scanf("%d", &input);
printf("Enter number of grams emitted per mile: ");
scanf("%f", &grams_per_mile);
printf("Enter odometer reading: ");
scanf("%d", &odometer);

printf("The pollutant is: %s\n", pollutants[input+1]);
[/code]

no idea if code tags work outside of /g/ but whatever. havent used c in awhile and im tired, but i think thatll work.

as a general rule, if you have to repeatedly do something, like print a set, you want probably want to store the objects as an array and iterate over them, and then if you want to select one, you simply index the array.

no idea what you mean by mix if statements with switches. switches are just generally just implemented as jump tables if the indexes are contiguous, or implemented the same as if statements, if they are fragmented

like healthy foods your body rejects them in favor of bad foods like sugar because your body loves to self-indulge so it does the same thing with water and rejects it in favor of other beverages like tea and especially alcohol because deep down we all just want to kill ourselves but we don't want to acknowledge that we want to kill ourselves

But it isn't.
At all.

>>8803643
because alcohol makes you feel good

god damn it i am so close to picking it up again
