i dont know about zizek, but chomsky is the most cited living scientist.

>>8642277
Oh, he got a lot of retweets? Im so impressed now

>>8642290
you literally have no clue what you are talking about.

>>8668053
My guess is 5.

You're trolling right? It's 5.

Don't listen to these brainlets. The answer is 7.

>Sitting all day solving puzzles is stressful.

>>8666157
lmao it's not stressful.
There's not profit motive and nobody cares about the bottom line. The academia stress meme isn't real

>>8666196
pretty much this.

the only stress is grant writing.

I need help, guys. I'm an idiot taking Chemistry, and I need to figure out the order of this reaction. I already have the rate and concentration with multiple trials. My professor included ln(rate1/rate2) = ln(2)^x on the paper, but this seems blatantly wrong, and the numbers I'm getting from it confirm my belief that it's wrong.
How the fuck do I solve for the order of the reaction?

>>8660197
Well, evidently I overestimated the speed of /sci/. Guess I'll just have to head to class without completing this, because everything online and the shit in my textbook basically just says "LOL WHY WOULD YOU DO MATH JUST GRAPH IT BRO"
I really felt like Chemistry would be more of a hard science. Everything that I'm being taught is indicating that Chemistry is 90% just guessing and hoping for a somewhat consistent answer.

Why would you want to though? Your body deteriorates which isn't that bad if prosthetics get good enough, but your brain turning to mush is scary. Fuck being a vegetable for 50 years.

>>your generation and people under 40 will likely be a generation of centenarians
i don't see why this would be the case, not without a actual anti-aging therapy

Even if longevity technology becomes "a thing," what makes anyone think they will be affordable and available for everyone? This sis a capitalist society - the technology to allow someone to live 150, 200, even an indefinite amount of years would be available only to the richest, most powerful people around.

no, only good will

>>8666699
I have no choice but to believe it does.

I sometime imagine how I would prepare for a situation where I was unable to form new memories

pre-commit a system of short/long-term notebooks and bookmarks where I write down what I was supposed to remember?

the system would have to be created beforehand or I would forget about the system after making it

>A large body of research in humans has demonstrated that consistent aerobic exercise (e.g., 30 minutes every day) induces persistent improvements in certain cognitive functions, healthy alterations in gene expression in the brain, and beneficial forms of neuroplasticity and behavioral plasticity; some of these long-term effects include: increased neuron growth, increased neurological activity (e.g., c-Fos and BDNF signaling), improved stress coping, enhanced cognitive control of behavior, improved declarative, spatial, and working memory, and structural and functional improvements in brain structures and pathways associated with cognitive control and memory.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] The effects of exercise on cognition have important implications for improving academic performance in children and college students, improving adult productivity, preserving cognitive function in old age, preventing or treating certain neurological disorders, and improving overall quality of life.[1][11][12]

>People who regularly perform aerobic exercise (e.g., running, jogging, brisk walking, swimming, and cycling) have greater scores on neuropsychological function and performance tests that measure certain cognitive functions, such as attentional control, inhibitory control, cognitive flexibility, working memory updating and capacity, declarative memory, spatial memory, and information processing speed.[1][5][7][9][10] Aerobic exercise is also a potent antidepressant and euphoriant;[13][14][15][16] as a result, consistent exercise produces general improvements in mood and self-esteem.[17][18]

>Regular aerobic exercise improves symptoms associated with a variety of central nervous system disorders and may be used as an adjunct therapy for these disorders. There is clear evidence of exercise treatment efficacy for major depressive disorder[11][15][19][20] and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.[21][22] A large body of preclinical evidence and emerging clinical evidence supports the use of exercise therapy for treating and preventing the development of drug addictions.[23][24][25][26][27] Reviews of clinical evidence also support the use of exercise as an adjunct therapy for certain neurodegenerative disorders, particularly Alzheimer’s disease[28][29] and Parkinson's disease.[30][31][32][33] Regular exercise is also associated with a lower risk of developing neurodegenerative disorders.[31][34] Regular exercise has also been proposed as an adjunct therapy for brain cancers.[35]

Assuming mind control chemicals exist, something we cannot deny, spreading them via airplane is a viable method to gain a hold on even the people who resist the kind controlling substances in the drinking water.

Doesn't really matter. All that jet fuel is still bad for the environment and public health.

When did you realize that if you're a physics major, you're basically unemployed?

Simply not true

smart but lazy

in my own case (and yes, I know I'm an arrogant faggot), it's because my thought moves much faster than what's needed to comfortably learn the information and do the assignments, so essentially while the teacher/professor takes 20 minutes explaining something to the normies that I could've learned in 5, I've long since been thinking about something else, and am now 20 minutes worth of information behind everyone else. Now even if I focus harder I have to work with new information that's being introduced with the assumption that old information is already known. you could compare it to driving on the highway in 2nd gear

8 hours a day in classes? Are you taking like 30 credits? My longest days are 5 hours in class.

>>8664747
there's some time inbetween classes, but yes, I spend 8 hours a day total.

I only study a month away from final exams, and a week from midterms, not really doing homework.

I get that technically that counts as nanotech but you know what I'm saying.

A general purpose desktop nanoassembler is what I'm talking about.

Would you like to help out?

For liposomes?

but skepticism and criticism of vaccine science is also not welcome

also evolution science

Inadequate people need to be right. They need reassurance as a child needs it.
If you actually listen--instead of staring at your portable tv with built-in remote all day long--you'll hear adn notice that some people say "right?" or "eh?" about every fifth word. They have severe inadequacy and insecurity issues. It's so easy to hear how ignorant people are when they babble for all to hear, without shame (as a dog).
