The explanation of time is something that bothers me the most. Time is something that might or might not be created by humans. time is change. lets say an organic matter changes due to the rotation of the planet and its gravity field. the ISS in space is in space where time does not occur but the station still orbits the earth and its gravitational field therefore changes with time along with us. Is there a theory as to wither time goes in reverse or gets altered if a object or organic matter would go against the motion/rotation of the planet? Lets see i send a space capsule with organic matter into space but make it move in the opposite direction on earths orbital ring. Our planet would be a complete year orbit and change would occur within that time span. Would the organic matter change just as it would on earth by going into forward into growth, not change at all or the process would reverse. the reverse process will sound impossible since the organic matter would have to go thru a growth change twice. Time itself can change because of the change we give it but would there be any change to the organic matter? Only if it sounds confusing, this is as simple as i can put it.

Sounds like a collection of obscure misconceptions that I don't feel like clearing up as I don't even know where to start. If you want to learn about what time is, you should learn about thermodynamics and entropy, special and general relativity. I have no idea what you are trying to say.

What kind of change would occur to a organic matter that goes against our time line?

>>8614717
We don't know what time really is so why asking?
We can't even define time without mentioning the concept of time..........

I spent a little extra time at CC. There was a semester I kinda dropped everything but Calc 2, and I also didn't plan out all my classes (and never saw the advisor) so I wasn't on-time.
Whatever mang. Things picked up for me, and unless you have a terminal illness or some shit you can probably find your way along too. Don't let the end of your life just be filled with regret over all those things you didn't do.

Is this accurate? What's the best way to learn proofs in Step 1?
Already halfway through Velleman's book but wondering if there's something better.

Pretty terrible advice senpai. The best way to learn proofs is to write them. Get a discrete math textbook and work out of that to learn basic proof techniques.
>>
>>8614381
Absolute shit, delete this
>>
1. Proofs are important but you shouldn't stop learning the important things until you're done with a book on proofs. How to Solve It is the best book and can be done while working on other proper courses.
2. Linear algebra is pretty bad as a first course because you don't really need it as a prerequisite for must stuff. On the other hand, calculus is the basis for an intro to real analysis, multivariable calculus and for ODEs. And those themselves are co/pre-requisites for pretty much everything in math. You get much more bang for your buck by learning calculus first.
All in all that list of books sounds pretty bad to be honest with you senpai.

The correct answer is graph theory

No, Machine Learning is a meme field driven by brute force computing power. There is no intelligence or creativity needed, just random mindless search. Statistics is too artificial and structured to be good for AI. Study pure math anon.

Aren't moon or extraplanetary colonies impossible? Even ignoring all of the logistical problems of building them, the lower gravity of every terrestrial planet/moon would make it impossible for humans to develop if born there.

I'm currently finishing my undergrad in Ecology. At my university, we have an Environmental Geomatics certificate that requires some GIS and GPS courses. I'm terrible at math and have no experience with computers or programming besides R.
I was planning on spending my senior year taking all the electives that I wanted. I specifically decided on taking this major based on a zoology course I took in high school and I planned on finally taking the invert/vert zoology courses they offer here and some other hands-on type of outdoor classes that teach how to ID, basic animal anatomy, taxonomy, ect. as electives but if I pursue the geomatics certificate I won't have any extra time or space for those other electives. Taking the certificate would literally just fill my schedule up to graduation.
All of the professors tout the need for the certificate and how we'll never get jobs without it. I honestly don't know what path to take, and I have no idea if I would be any good at it. I'm already in a lab at school and have been doing summer work in a county lab without any experience with GIS. If /sci/ has advice on the job prospects in ecology, if GIS is difficult to learn, or if I should just focus on honing more outdoorsy type skills pls help me.

I took some GIS at uni.
Was actually fairly enjoyable. I can see how it's an extremely useful skill to have these days. What I was doing wasn't very programming or math heavy
>>
>>8612627
GIS is a legit good skill to have. marketable almost anywhere.
>>
>>8612627
I'm a GIS pro. Yes, it's very good to have those skills. Yes, it's very good to know trigonometry. Depending on the animals you study or monitor, it can be extremely useful to be able to map your data. The best marriage of biology and GIS is when you can design electronic data gathering methods for use in the field with hand-held devices integrated with GPS. Fr example iForms. R is an especially useful tool.
For pure GIS though, the future for those seeking success is in enabling lay folks to display their data. To devise methods and routines, set up web maps that accept data easily from them and display it.

What would happen if you had your hand soaking in a bowl of water continuously for several years? I illustrated just in case you were confused.
Has anyone ever done this? Should I do this?
