When biologists say something is instinctive, they mean something very specific that is not what average joes mean when they use the same term.

>>8596584
They do say, chimps for instance, have their own 'cultures'.

USUALLY, before it's said that it's instinctual, there's empirical and peer reviewed evidence that it is in fact, instinctual.

Usually.

how do you fuck up that badly?

A guy in my year had a super shit habit of smelling beakers to work out if it was water or something else. One time it was c. sulphuric and he took a big whiff of it. He nearly passed out then and there, ran out to the toilet and threw up. He's done something similar with ammonia. He graduated top 5 in my year and is now doing a phd though because he's a tryhard "liveathome" type who has no social life.

literally was helping my parents with their pool, wasn't even thinking while mixing pool chemicals till it started bubbling and I caught a wiff of chlorine. Thank fuck I ran out of there quick till the reaction was done.

Working in a chem lab one summer and I cracked the seal on an ammonia bottle, it took my breathe away and I nearly dropped the entire thing on the floor.

Took a bunch of volts through my hand when testing ESR on some capacitors.

wtf is that

Molecular machines are a biological inspiration. We've been studying them for a century with the complex mechanisms that occur between proteins and etc inside the body, but only recently have we been able to effectively synthesize our own. So we've been testing our new abilities.
I only briefly glanced at it during udergrad, but multiple disciplines are required, mainly biology, chemistry, physics

Gravity.

orbitals

>>8595981
it does, its always falling thats why it orbits in circles

>>8595949
I used to do that too.
I'd suggest melatonin.
Basically, take 3-5mg of melatonin at 8pm every day, put flux in darkroom mode at that instant, close your curtains, eat dinner before 8pm every day, go to sleep before 10pm every day.
Always have a bottle of water near your bed, the only sideaffect melatonin ever seems to have is occasional cottonmouth at high doses.

>>8595954
But I don't want to sleep. Sleep is a waste of time

>>8595954
oh, you also get sickass vivid dreams after a week or two of using it.
They're dank as hell, you'll love 'em.

What's your bench?

rèéêëēėę...

why do you think you can succeed in mathematics if you can't even survive generic engineering education? honest question

>>8595055

For Heaven's sake, why do you ask for advice from /sci/?
Talk to your friends and parents.

>>8595061

People like to underestimate applied math.

>>8594953

You can ask him in hell.

If you think of Truth as something that exists "out there" outside our purview, then I'd say the second one.

If you had never studied anything in your life, it wouldn't make any of the information you have today any less "existing" outside of your awareness.

>>8594953
After realizing pretty much all of special relativity is a result of Minkowski geometry, there is the obvious question of what if we generalize this to curved spaces.

How you get gravity from that, given only the knowledge of physics they had then, idk.

>>8594813

Literally just submit to another journal.
Work on your next paper.

What field is this?

>half a year lost

Is it experimental work?

I don't exactly know what regulations are being removed...so to throw a post in to clarify...what are the regulations that are being lifted? Link?

Well, I voted for him because I saw posted here that he promised to make anime real. I hope he delivers on that. On the rest I don't care.

Mainly financial regulation and environmental regulation.

of course. the angles and side lengths of a polygon completely define it. Here's an exercise as a sort of proof: Can you change the area of a polygon without changing the sidelengths or the angles?

>>8593664
Did you just assume the gender of that polygon?

Just wait for people to call you on it, then your career will be over.

Well given that most of science research is funded by vested interests and carried out by underpaid people who have more interest in making a living, I wouldn't sweat it.

>>8592434
They don't even have any citations yet. I was careful to not boast about any of my research to anyone when asked.

>>8590840
they said the first landing would be unmanned, I think

>>8590852
I thought they were going to send supply caches first, and then the manned mission after?

Also, why would SpaceX be sending NASA astronauts? Wouldn't they train their own people rather than relying on NASA?

space doesn't build rockets that crash baka
