I propose a study on the relationship between the fWHR of porn stars and whether they do anal. The data set is large and freely available.
Grant money please

Cool. How do you 'take care of exports'? Do you do this discreetly? Does this involve private planes? What precautions, if any, do you have to take to ensure safe transport?

Wow, these advantages are SO IMPORTANT

There's no reason that fahrenheit is particularly useful. But neither is there for Celsius. Both are pretty arbitrary and determined by the freezing points of water in various circumstances. Outside of the context of water there is no advantage at all for either one, and even within the context of water it still doesn't offer any advantage. Setting 0 as the freezing point is only advantageous to retarded euros who can't remember any number other than 0. Setting 0 to a mixture of equal weights of ammonium chloride, ice, and water seems far more convoluted than the previous one, but in effect it's the same because there IS no effect.

Fahrenheit is the only American unit that I sort of enjoy more than the global standards.

I just like that the range is spread out a little more so it feels more descriptive.

I am American though, so I am biased.

Cool tricks OP. Thanks for sharing.

A side is two-dimensional. A face is three-dimensional. So your analogy is flawed.

but this is the true GOAT

There isn't a monolithic answer to this question. It's as varied as there are mathematicians. You'll have people whose parents forced them to do maths 10+ hours a day and who end up being very prolific and have people who do math <4 hours a day and have a very rich life outside of math who also end up very prolific.

You could dissect bee brains, train cannibalistic slugs, simulate neural circuits on super computers, etc.

Neuroscience is a amazingly interesting field.

4 years of bench research in pain and itch sensation was fun. Doing clinical research on kids with right hemiparetic cerebral palsy with normal language. The kicker is that if you fuck up someone's left hemisphere in adulthood, they lose significant language ability. But these kids with fucked left brains have been able to reorganize their cortex to accomidate eloquent structures from literally masses of neurons with ambiguous function. The brains remold themselves dramatically.

Tldr, no matter what the study, neuro is fucking fascinating.

>>8646084
The science is interesting, but messy. As someone who looks at MRI scans, the same parts of the brain seems to be implicated somewhat in every cognitive process (and there are usually not enough people in a cohort to be sure about your findings, so different cohorts can give different results). It's very hard to point to activation areas and say "based on this, such and such is happening", and to get to that point we're going to need more sophisticated analysis methods like deep learning, and bigger cohorts.

Is that the one where you must get the ring off in the back back there?

>>8646038
Honestly I have no idea what the goal is. I guess to remove the ring completely...

Forgot to mention: post your answers in radical form. No decimals.

>>8645560
You're out of luck. There's a branch of mathematics called Galois theory that proves that solutions to this kind of problem can't be expressed in terms of radicals.

None of the ones in the picture are my favorite. The Pareto distribution is my favorite.

I'm glad you have an open mind and are looking to inform yourself before making conclusions, but the way the msm refers to as climate change is completely unrelated to natural processes. I say this as our planet is currently in a milankovitch cycle that's further away from the sun than normal, with decreased solar activity (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_activity_and_climate#/media/File:Sunspot-temperature-10000yr.svg), leading us to expect lower temperatures than the average Holocene trend. On the other hand, the opposite is happening, with an absurd rise in temperatures occurring on a short timescale literally unseen since an asteroid hit the earth 65 million years ago. There is no need for consensus about the laws of physics in this day and age, it's been mathematically proven for quiet a while, and these laws explain the processes behind this rise in global temperature is due to the expression of the greenhouse effect in response to increased carbon production as a byproduct of a petroleum powered economy for the past two centuries. You can read up about it here, it's pretty basic stuff: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_effect

Remember weather =/= climate

I never understood the monetary gain for any researchers or advocates for climate change awareness, as I spent a lot of lab hours as a volunteer at times, and couldn't care less about how much I made. There's money incentives in any field, if you go into the sciences, and especially the now underfunded (EPA cuts) climate sciences for money you're beyond delusional.

The only debate lies in the time frame we will face the consequences of climate change, which is dependent on the flux in carbon emissions due to a changing political climate, so estimates are varied, as energy has become more political than economic now if you ask me. The science is done, but our response to it far from over.

I know this because I'm involved in oceanic research, so I'm pretty familiar with climate science.

go fuck yourself I'm not even a climate researcher I study fucking intertidal processes for a private uni, but I'm part of the conspiracy right? Why don't you try and interpret the points I provided, reading helps speed things up. Try not to get your news from infowars, but what the fuck did you expect leaving /pol/ to make this cancer /sci/ thread, no shit I'm a researcher.
Why don't you take perspective of where the money is and who's in control before you make shitty genetic fallacies like that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change_denial

Elon Musk. Space-X was all just smoke and mirrors for him to build his own space ship. He's played us like the suckers we are. He's hopping on the first ship to mars and never looking back.

>>8643401
You joke but there is some value in what you said. A few people know, Elon being one of them, that there are alien-made structures on Mars, and that reaching them will grant some sort of ascension. He literally will be on the first ship there.
