Sad. Sometimes I wonder how they felt about making the longest travel mankind has ever made while going back quickly to a normal life.

Too bad the moon is a useless rock and the entire point of that whole ordeal was a pissing contest with USSR

in the time you have been going back and forth you could have just calculated it by hand, you lazy faggot.

>>8607251
That looks very very wrong.

That's what machines are for, faggot. Until we get a machine that can write this thesis for me and create original thoughts, it can do my math for me.

>>8607273
In what way? There's no correlation between the independent and the dependent variable, therefore the R2 should be very low, right?

list some goddamn Chads who likes learning stoichiometry instead of chase girls

Taught by incompetent professors who understand the material, but do not understand how to convey it effectively

High school teacher was like this. Knew chemistry well, couldn't explain worth a damn. Wonder at all I kept up with it

Because it doesn't get interesting until late in the degree when things start to make sense.

> If anyone can link good lecture notes or recommend me a book with practice problems that would be great.

There is no such thing. I'll literally curse anyone who posted Stanford's Convex Optimization course.

Optimization is a shit subject. All books are shit.

I assume you're German, because their curriculum has such a hard-on for optimization.

As everything, last minute prep is bound to fail. Prepare yourself mentally.
Best course of action, to make sure you can do all of the HWs and practice problems and past exams.
Ask your classmates, and tutor for help.

I can sympathise with how a lecturer and shit powerpoint lecture slides can make simple things seem horrifically complicated.

Try to find out what textbook your course is based on and look in there.

>>8606813
>My lecturer is so fucking garbage it's unbelievable. His lectures are the most boring thing imaginable, he's just standing there awkwardly fidgeting a bit with his hands and talking in himself. Worst of all, the course material is useless. ...

Excuses. Everyone in your class has the same problem.
The only difference is they didn't whine and actually did the work.
That's why you'll fail and they won't.

Men sexually select women with larger breasts because it makes them look fertile and able to provide lots of nourishment to offspring. Obviously there is some genetic variance. Whether you call this selection artificial or natural is a bit iffy philosophically, but that distinction doesn't matter that much in this case.

tl;dr: yes

High levels of estrogen generate very attractive female forms flat stomach, big butt, huge breasts, wasp waist.

>>8606229
So the fact that I hate big breasts and ass just makes me an outlier?

understand maxwell's equations
this implies understanding analysis (or at least calculus)

>>8603252
I have the math under my belt but some things not clicking

>>8603251
>>8603260
then understand the relativistic approach, because it is a relativistic theory. you need to understand the lorentz transformation and the forces and the way to maxwell equations.

This is David Blackwell

probably by most accounts, the greatest black mathematician ever

this is what he said when he met Von Neumann for the first time


"He did a year of post-doctoral studies as a fellow at Institute for Advanced Study in 1941–42.[6] At the Institute, he met John von Neumann and von Neumann asked Blackwell to discuss his Ph.D. thesis with him.[7] Blackwell, who believed that von Neumann was just being polite and not genuinely interested in his work, did not approach him until von Neumann himself asked him again a few months later. According to Blackwell on this meeting, "He (von Neumann) listened to me talk about this rather obscure subject and in ten minutes he knew more about it than I did."[8] He departed when he was prevented from attending lectures or undertaking research at nearby Princeton University, which the IAS has historically collaborated with in research and scholarship activities."

other exploits

on Neumann's ability to instantaneously perform complex operations in his head stunned other mathematicians.[157] As a 6 year old, he could divide two 8-digit numbers in his head.[158] When he was sent at the age of 15 to study advanced calculus under the renowned analyst Gábor Szegő, Szegő was so astounded with the boy's talent in mathematics that he was brought to tears on their first meeting.[24]

So who's this vsauce he's talking to? Why does he introduce himself to vsauce every time?

I never go on /sci/, I just accidently clicked on this board but I have a question. I used to think vsauce was pretty interesting, is it just basic pleb shit?
