So guys, serious question. I had an abscessed tooth and an insane pain where it was. The doctor prescribed some amoxicillin, and I took it. After it ended, I was too lazy to go to the doctor, and kept taking it for about a year regularly. Then I got the tooth removed. However, lately I've been feeling a discomfort in my throat, and I'm just worried if there's an infection? If there is an infection that went to my throat, I will feel a pain, right? I'm really fucking worried guys and losing my shit rn

Please help.

So in the past I have taken the 16 personality test multiple times with different results. Sometimes I got entj, intp, or intj. Recently i took another one by a different site and got matched up with ENTP. After reading the description I realized that it was exactly me. Everythint about it. Personally i think 16personalities test is terrible as their descriptions dont go in depth and the test itself doesnt seem to be accurate.

Freshman - 3.87 Unweighted 4.1 weighted
Sophomore - 4.0 unweighted 4.35 weighted
Junior - 4.0 unweighted 4.55 weighted
Senior - 4.0 unweighted, 4.5 weighted.
So I think weighted overall was about 4.4
I finished 5th in my class, main reason I wasn't higher was because I was in mostly CP classes freshman year, but then I switched to honors/AP

What is the anon highlighted in red even trying to say?

I'd like to know if whether or not he's just talking out of his ass. Is there any coherency or validity in his comment, or is it a bullshitting pseudo intellectual rant?

Would appreciate it if one of you physics/math bros shared your opinion. I'm not that educated on the subject.

that thread and the previous responses are fucking retarded, and elementary level
https://warosu.org/g/thread/58478745

I think that anon is trying to say that if we had enough knowledge and power, we could create a seeting in which we can do what the inverse of some reaction does

As in
ch4 + h2o > co2 + 2h2o is the naturally occuring reaction
and if we were powerful enough we could find some way to reverse it as in
co2 + 2h2o > ch4 + h2o

He gives this argument to say that chemical reactions can be indeed reversible, contrary to what first anon said

Now the first definition of chemical reaction saying can't be reversed, is pretty shallow
That definition is usually given so brainlets can differentiate better
But whether or not a reaction can be perfectly inversed is another question, I don't know the answer either
I mean it seems possible that under the right circumstances products can again start a reaction, but is it always possible to get back to the original reactants? I don't know honestly

I'd be more sympathetic with his view if it did not include sperging out and actually doubting the existence of really big natural numbers. I can understand the suspicion over the continuum, but he extends his obtuse finitism to even the natural numbers

>Can you prove him wrong?

You can't really prove him wrong, any proofs that he creates (are there any proofs in his mathfoundations series? I've seen two or three of his videos and they were just rants about the reals) would be valid in his axiomatic system. You can however disagree with him. However I have three issues with his presentations:
>His claims over the rigors of mathematics.
I never really understood this, the validity of a proof is relative to the system in which it is created. Valid proofs have to be logically consistent by definition.

>His use and abuse of Planck units
Wildburger seems to think that Planck units are of some fundamental importance to physics, and so claims that the upper bound on the number of numbers is the same as the number of Planck cubes that can fit into the observable universe. This is completely wrong, Planck units are not fundamental, they are no more or less arbitrary than any other set of units, it just so happens that the Planck scale is useful when in high energy physics.

Hey /sci/, I hope this kinda thread is allowed here. I'm more often lurking the discussions here.

I don't really game much, but when I play I do like puzzle games. Some of them are really hard like snakebird or stephen's sausage roll or spachechem. One mistake can mean that you won't be able to solve the puzzle.

And this got me wondering are there any mathematical methods/rules one could apply to such or to puzzles in general? I tried searching for stuff but I did not find anything, or is it impossible because of the always different rulesets? (even though many aspects are often simmiliar)

Hope the question makes sense, english is not my naitive language.

Brute force or machine learning.


If you want to create formulas that are more condensed, then that would be dependent on the ruleset.

Ah that's what I thought the answers would be, been thinking about this for some time.
Had some ideas about min-maxing, but that doesen't work.

And I thought maybe some graph-theory or topology could be applied, but I do not know enough about that stuff.

Backtracing is the only thing that somewhat works I think, but again depending on the game.
