Nah, I am too young.
30-40 years later - more likely.

Bump.

Don't believe /sci/ has no interest in the fancy stuff you see in MIT press releases/Cell/Nature.

Lately, the stuff is getting more and more interesting.

It's worth pointing out that ice extent measurements dangerously underestimate ice volume losses.

But it's cold outside right now you cucks

>>8765221
that's how it goes

I don't know which one it is.
Do you have to study all day to get good grades or is calc so easy that you don't need to do anything? One minute /sci/ makes fun of you for saying you had to study your ass off, the next minute they say you're supposed to.

>>8765221
marginally. i fucked off all week and still graduated in the top 50%. some people are smarter than others.

busting your ass to do the best you can will never, ever hurt your chances though. i wonder where i could be if i put more effort in my studies...

Because Chemistry is boring. Most people go into it because they're told they'll be the first trillionaire if they find a way to synthesize oil easily

I love Chemistry, I get how some people get scared by brainlet courses but the applications I find from my education is endless, and it makes me wonder from reading a previous thread about premed students going in these programs for money, is there any altruism left in science, is the majority of our generation of new scientists just in it for self gain rather than the benefit of humanity and life as a whole?

>>8764887
Because it's just rote memorization and the only people attracted to it are unoriginal faggots, and women.

4.0

3.9+ plus chad social skills

Depends on your portfolio, and if you have prior experience/internships. If you have an empty workbook and no prior work experience an employer has no choice but to weigh your GPA highly when evaluating you.

Since this is probably your first job, I'd recommend building an expansive and descriptive portfolio of projects which show competency and initiative to go beyond the basics covered in classroom. Preferably nothing too complicated, something you can readily talk about during an interview.

Because testosterone = more hair growth = more smell

Wash your balls hard too

some people like the smell if it's not too rank

it's enough just to shower every day

>it's sexually unattractive like bad breath.
It's not, it's sexually attractive.

Right then, since no one is responding I'll bump the thread with my personal idea:
So I'm thinking a kind of backpack-like oversized lightbulb that intakes atmospheric gas through the top and heats it up to a plasma-like state and then expels the plasma to steer the craft and prevent the device from heating to the point that the filament burns out or the user gets burnt.

I want zeppelins back. It's a sin something so cool has been abandoned.

anyone that thinks information / causality and the speed of light have fucking anything to do with each other is actually, legitimately, unironically mentally retarded.

>>8757017
it'd take a long time--slower than the speed of light--to move the stick

>the sun goes out

>it takes 8 minutes for the last light to reach earth

supposedly smart people:"the sun didn't actually go out until we saw it go out"

fucking morons.

you could literally go on any website that sells lights and they tell you what the yearly operating cost is based on x amount of hours of usage per day.

>>8767521
6*24*365 = total kwh used in 1 year
multiply result by cost per kwh

>>8767521
you tard, a kWh is literally one thousand kilowatts for an hour. So we go 6W * 1kW/1000W * 365 * 24 h = 52.56 kWh

If you learn how to lucid dream you could probably work problems in your sleep if you really wanted.

I don't know if the dream state is too magical even when lucid for this to work or not but it'd be very interesting to try

>>8767165
>How do I learn math in my sleep /sci/? I can't seem to learn anything during waking hours.
You could do that while lucid dreaming. Having LDs long enough could be difficult though.
Then occurrences or LDs are rare for some people (like me) so you better stop being a lazy bum and start studying like everybody else.

I waste the other 2/3 of my time being conscious

whats the downside to loop quantum gravity?

>>8767018
I thought loop quantum gravity was already half dead

I don't know, I'll get back to you when I've spent 12 years studying these theories in depth

New Age is very broad... as in religion? Social engineering? Etc

>>8766589
As in Abraham Hicks (obviously a scam) "Law of Attraction" bullshit, plus vibrational energy bullshit. She's also claiming she's done "reads" on me and is literally pulling Cold Reading bullshit.

Expound into specifics.

yes, the blood contains an even distribution of iron, and blood is distributed fairly evenly throughout the body
all you need is a powerful enough magnetic field

We should at first understand WHAT IS gravity, then and only then, we can use it as we wish

A better question is why don't you have a calculus book to hand him? How did you learn it?
