AI can be something as simple as a video game NPC. I assume you mean a general or learning AI, in which case, someone is going to make one, and there probably won't be more than one. That, or sooner or later one of them will destroy us all.

I've been looking into CFTs and link invariants a lot recently, since I've been working with another prof who's trying to use non-perturbative methods such as the AdS/CFT correspondence to study strongly-correlated systems of fermions in condensed matter.
The link invariants could be used to construct representations of quantum braid groups, which can be understood as correlation functions in some CFT. This may also shed some light regarding the unification of the braid group and principal bundle approaches to quantum particle statistics.

I'm in my third year of a physics w/theoretical physics degree at a pretty decent UK university. Our first lecture this year in a module on 'Advanced classical physics' was an hour on vectors and the dot product and cross product.

There were still people in the class who didn't understand this shit. Made me seriously question the quality of my degree and the uni.

Feel free to call me a tard but I'm stumped on this definite integration problem. I thought I could use u-substitution but it doesn't seem to go anywhere after defining u. Would someone mind explaining how to go about solving this?

Okay, step one is to take the constant out
so move the 64pi/25 out of the integral
64pi/25(integ)cos^2(x)dx
>>
Step two: Use the double angle formula to get
cos^2(x)=(1+cos2x)/2
then take that constant out.
Now you have
32pi/25(integ)1+cos2xdx

Step 3 integrate and plug in definite values
(sum of the integrals is integrals of the sum)

(32pi/25)(x+1/2sin(2x)) + C
plug in the bounds^^

the diagram is misnomered, the field horizons should be labeled 10 11 12, and instead are 11 12 13, a freudian slip i'm sure, as for te proposal itself, i couldn't even tell you how to measure any of that practically, how does one even generate such a singualrity?

Titor described his time machine on several occasions. In an early post, he described it as a "stationary mass, temporal displacement unit powered by two top-spin, dual positive singularities", producing a "standard off-set Tipler sinusoid".

hey /sci/, /ck/ here

i tried asking over there but they don't really know anything so i'll try here

i was given a couple iron pots and pans that need seasoning
i have a bottle of old rancid flax oil in the fridge from last time i seasoned a pan
can i use the rancid oil? or will it leave a bad aroma?
i feel like if it polymerizes properly it won't matter but i don't actually know anything

thanks!

>>8714520
My thought is that any unsaturated fat you subject to high temperatures in the presence of oxygen will undergo oxidation and cause rancid off flavors and aromas. However, I googled seasoning and they recommend using unsaturated fats/oils, which during the seasoning process, will undergo severe oxidation anyway. I dont know wtf they mean by polymerize- theyre probably referring to the fats forming a sooty, carbon film on the skillet that somehow protects it.

Anyway, I guess if you use rancid oil with off flavors and off odours, there is a possibility it might get stuck in the pores of the skillet and you will probably detect them later on because,these are,often detected by a human nose at even the tiniest concentrations. Just use canola oil or something man.

Also, how do you know,you flaxseed oil is rancid. Off flavor and odors? Commercially, they add Vitamin E and other antioxidants to oils to retard the oxidation process. I think bottles are designed to now to also inhibit light

/ck/ here

use Crisco my dude. Flax seed is not nearly as good imo, it always turned blotchy and I had to reseason. Used Crisco once and cooking on it is a dream

I've done some reading and it seems that while we have a solution to the 2D wave equation bounded by a rectangle, I can't find any information regarding closed solutions on different domains.

Do we have closed solutions for different geometries? Circles? Triangles? Something more exotic? I ask so that I can do propagation simulation without having to incur the numerical error that a time-domain finite difference method would yield.

Thanks you for any help.

IIRC we have them for circles, using Bessel functions. I'm not too sure about triangles. I doubt it, but you're better off looking for solutions through Google.

I'm considering doing a fully funded Ph.D at a non-name college in a non-name country.

Is this a bad idea? Ph.D will probably be something involving mathematical modelling as that's the field I'm most proficient in. It's fairly applied stuff so hopefully it won't ruin my employment prospects afterwards.

With regards to smarts. I don't know, I'm top 15% of my Masters class at a university that isn't a complete disaster.

DESU, I envision a Ph.D at a lesser ranked institution to be easier and more secure and I might even get employed there afterwards.

Because they forgot about it. Most people are like goldfish, in that they're retarded.

Because it's expensive and the Soviet Union collapsed. Once we have really delved into developing reusable booster technology and have reduced the cost of space flight we will probably see increased interest in space travel as well as space development.
