Problem in the first line.

The language suggests that time and money is just a necessary condition for finding a woman. You can't just infer equality from that.

The book was used for a course in Stanford, the students were very smart and yet the passing rates for that course were abysmal. It's basically common knowledge that it's impossible to use it for independent study as an undergrad.

>>8660103
So are all these people pretending it's accessible? I see comments on stack overflow of guys going like "Yeah I used it in highschool and it was great!".

While reading it just feels like the purpose of the book is to make one feel like an idiot. Is there a book you'd recommend on discrete math instead of this?

>>8660111
As a matter of fact, yes. MIT OCW has a very good course with videotaped lectures, assignments and everything on discrete math, I'm assuming you're reading it for CS.

https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-042j-mathematics-for-computer-science-fall-2010/

As far as people recommending it, beats me. Maybe they are geniuses, maybe they are pretending to be, or maybe they read it, skipped over the proofs, did at best one or two of the warmups and act like they actually worked through the book.

Not enough info - where is it? What is the white substance? Are you indoors or outdoors? If indoors, what kind of building, etc.

Take a wide picture of the surroundings.

It's really rather trivial, but I'm not going to do your homework for you.

Wee!

Just use your arm, don't they teach this in school?

Its like basic art/math education.
Don't use your wrist when drawing/graphing.

Lots of rodents will reproduce exponentially if there's food about, only to crash and burn when they have too many mouths to feed. That said, the only time this really happens is in human grain stores and stuff, so can't really say it's the same as humans knowingly fucking our ecosystem over.

>As far as I know, no other species wages warfare and genocide against members of its own race.

There's a continuing war over two ant colonies in America. One controls much of California and one controls land the other side of the US border. They're always fighting for territory. Different species but not dissimilar to wars humans fight.

>Are humans not the ones who murdered all their cousin species that emerged from Africa with us?

If I remember correctly we out competed rather than murdered other hominids. I think there's even some thought that we might have lived alongside and reproduced with Neanderthals.

>objectively the most intelligent species
>"Why're humans so fucking stupid?"
>consciously modifies the environment to suit the species, ensure population growth and comfort
>"Is there any other species on earth that's so self-destructive"
>the only species able to contain primitive, natural impulses like rape through sets of rules, morality and law enforcement
>"Are humans the most violent species on earth?"

Misanthropes are retards.

>All other mammals live in equilibrium with the number of their kind that the local environment can take
lmao how can you be that deluded?
bring foreign species into a new habitat without predators and you'll see how nicely they take care of their environment

top kek science is blind faith

I'm far ahead of the lectures senpai, how else would I have perfect GPA?

>>8659848
Ditto kek

>>8659834
Yeah something's wrong. You should be able to cover the relevant sections faster than lecture. Skip small things when possible since they'll be covered in lecture.

Children are raised with a phone in their hand these days. No need for parenting or physical social interactions at all.

Go ahead, try to take the phone away from them and see what happens.

Microbes are the only reason oil spills ever get cleaned up. People literally can't do shit about oil spills besides spray them with dispersion chemicals to allow microbes to break it down faster.

>>8659559
yeah but i'm specifically talking about a piece of technology for a vehicle.

>>8659562
Doesn't seem that practical to maintain a microbial ecosystem inside your car.

Imagine having to fix that shit if you're a mechanic.

You are lost in a jungle, walking along a narrow path. You come to a T-junction, and you are aware that one way leads out of the jungle to safety, the other to a snake infested area and almost certain death. There are two tribesmen at the T junction, and you have been informed that one of these men will always answer a question truthfully, the other will always lie. What question will you ask?
