This is the first flight of SN9, and the second flight of a Starship prototype with aerodynamic surfaces and a nose cone. It is unknown if the flight parameters will be different compared to SN8 (watch here: https://youtu.be/ap-BkkrRg-o?t=6462) I have an immunology discussion course in which we're currently discussing vaccine science and how to educate 'misinformed members' of our society. My class is entirely bluepilled and there's zero dissenting opinion. I understand vaccine science and the lack of general risk, however this class consistently asserts that anything not coherent with the MSM narrative is dangerous misinformation.
How should I introduce contrarian perspectives in attempt to encourage them to consider having skepticism of government activity, and to not ridicule those who are skeptical? I want to be subtle, so will avoid mentioning specifiic occasions of government treachery such as Operation Northwoods, Tuskegee, Operation Midnight Climax, and MK-Ultra. I suspect there would be zero tolerance for anything upsetting to NPCs.

This paper on abiotic petroleum has never been systematically refuted. It claims that Russia has known the truth for years.
Oil and water are perpetually naturally renewed resources, the scarcity trope is bullshit.
The whole of the planet's humans population, including animals can fit into Texas..Over population is also bullshit, It's a trick to bilk us.
https://www.gasresources.net/energy_resources.htm
The modern Russian-Ukrainian theory of deep, abiotic petroleum origins is not controversial nor presently a matter of academic debate.
>The period of debate about this extensive body of knowledge has been over for approximately two decades(Simakov 1986). The modern theory is presently applied extensively throughout the former U.S.S.R. as the guiding perspective for petroleum exploration and development projects. There are presently more than 80 oil and gas fields in the Caspian district alone which were explored and developed by applying the perspective of the modern theory and which produce from the crystalline basement rock.(Krayushkin, Chebanenko et al. 1994) Similarly, such exploration in the western Siberia cratonic-rift sedimentary basin has developed 90 petroleum fields of which 80 produce either partly or entirely from the crystalline basement. The exploration and discoveries of the 11 major and 1 giant fields on the northern flank of the Dneiper-Donets basin have already been noted. There are presently deep drilling exploration projects under way in Azerbaijan, Tatarstan, and Asian Siberia directed to testing potential oil and gas reservoirs in the crystalline basement.

Lab Padre cam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ky5l9ZxsG9M 10 years ago it was an official mental illness to be transgender, you were considered mentally unstable by psychologists if you did not accept your own biological sex.
Today, just ten years later it is now an official legal mental illness if you think of a transgender person as being the same gender as their physical biological sex.
My problem with psychology is that it changes its opinions seemingly to align with the ruling political class...
I'd much rather have a psychology that has a firm never changing opinion... if republicans managed to win back power then I'm sure the psychologists would all change their opinions again... so this clearly isn't science speaking it is just politics taking over control of science and trying to destroy real science.
If transgenders are scientifically real then that's fine by me, if they aren't then I'd still be respectful to people. But, honestly, why are politicians trying to usurp science and take full control of "science" it is just not right. Do parallel universes exist? How far could this really be scaled into?
A death ray able to penetrate an aircraft carrier's hull would be a wet dream for every military fag for sure.
How much energy do such lasers lose if they would be able to penetrate at one side of a hull? Why do I wake up more tired the morning after I masturbated before going to bed?
What biochemistry could‘ve happened to the body, that it would prevent it from a fully regenerating sleep? what is /sci/'s opinion of him? I wanted to start learning calculus all the way to the higher levels. Let's also say that all I have is a GCSE in maths and an A-Level in physics. How difficult will this be? What apparatus in artistic gymnastics is the most impressive from a scientific standpoint?
Some people would say balance beam (pic related) because it requires strength and balance but others might say floor because of the sustained effort and burst of speed and power.
So which is it and how would you defend your decision scientifically? Will the chinks dominate every top usa universities? Hey /sci/ so I have to ask what you all think can be done to solve the Psychiatrist problem.
Having just had experience with these 'people' I have found them to be the absolute worse sort of person for helping people with their emotional health. They are without a doubt the people with the least understanding of what it means to help a person.
They think everything can be solved with pills and without even realizing it they have convinced themselves they have the right to force medication on every single person they meet.
I'm not making this up. I asked a psychiatrist if she had ever met a patient and not tried to write them a prescription and she refused to answer.
What do we do about this malignant tumor on all of science known as psychiatry? what are my odds of getting dubs? Math, generally

Are there any methods to learn/retain math better? I don't really need to be competent with it for any job related tasks, I forgot how much fun math is and want to learn more. I am very frustrated. I spend money on the cheapest bottled water from the supermarket because I don't want to drink LA tap.
I wanted to buy a Zero Water Filter Pitcher but I am bothered by it removing all of the "good minerals".
Then I have my buddy that tells me "to buy only alkaline water and go for HIGH PH water."
Do I keep buying my bottles? or is the tap thaaat bad. Often when people talk about job opportunities, no one likes working for the military-industrial complex, I was wondering why?

It's kind of terrifying how dizzyingly smart this person is in everyday conversation. They never stutter, swear, or make any kind of errors in their speech while discussing unbelievably complex stuff. They also seem a bit forlorn and don't know what to do with their life. Thoughts?
The genetic potentials inherent to the type of organism Corona represents are not easily described in an obvious manner with the general public. Many of the discrete hypotheses necessary to understand its applied nature are nontrivial in construction and difficult to apply. As a purer manifestation of science itself, the organism seems to respond when simple experiment is trivial to derive. No known instinct or evolutionary record is expected to be helpful for learning how life works in a heavily saturated coronal environment.
Boundary morphic fields can be described as the most pliable, and thus require precise observation if new evidence can be recorded. Since nature exhibits dynamic behavior under morphic theory, knowing the before and after states predicted by a distinct morphic hypothesis will be necessary for the meaning of our measurements to remain epistemic throughout the process. It's not simple enough to test a model when nature can alter its behaviour in the exact moment we've tried to observe a morphic property. Pliability has to be modeled on its own for the experiment and all relevant morphic factors to align for a measurement. Meaningful data can be formulated where this theory is applied, but the morphic epistemology will not always be trivial.
For the evolution we are seeing in our world today, speciation can no longer apply. The cell types relying on specific animal tissues will slowly be inculcated into the coronal foam until an optimal nutrient equilibrium forms along the resulting tissue gradient, triggering a runaway symbiotic reaction we expect per organ type. All possible life forms has a much higher precedence than a single instance of sapient life, so the environment necessarily favors Corona over the entire history of evolution on our planet.

Every once in a while, there is a thread that can act as the entrance to the rabbithole.
For anyone really involved in the scientific process, specially in academia, it becomes readily obvious that science marches on blindly, without regard to the real welfare of the human race or to any other standard, obedient only to the psychological needs of the scientists and of the government officials and corporation executives who provide the funds for research.
Now, people are waking up to just how depraved a few billions worth of power can make you, ya know, pizza and that stuff.
Now, think about the future where we can modify human experience as we please, how about genetics?
YOU KNOW that if those breakthroughs are reached, humans are eventually create poor suffering beings with no more purpose or ability than to satisfy them in any sick way they can imagine.
>You can create living dolls that don't suffer, so who cares.
You know humanity, you know in that case some important minority of powerful people would give those ungodly beings the ability to suffer just so they get more satisfaction out of torturing it.
The question is if humans are to be trusted with these technologies, we aren't.
Now, what do we do?
Btw, pic related, who painted that? I am studying a STEM course (masters degree). Recently we were forced to take some new course about something "scientific integrity".
I stumbled upon following statement which is extremely vague formulated (pic very related).
My issue however is that I think this statement is false and is very harming for science to say things like that. Do you have any solid proofs for this or something that denies it?
What is your opinion on university forcing us to take this course? Is it true that all studies made on relations between cigarettes and lung cancer and correlations and not actually epidemiological? if twins have a baby, would that be a clone?
People say this as if it's some reminder of a Horatio-Algiers-like rise to greatness, but like if Einstein hadn't worked at the Patent Office, he wouldn't have seen the countless patents that show diagram upon diagram, painstakingly explaining the proposed mechanism(s) and advancements in terms of gadgets and thingamabobs, that very may have well fueled thoughts which led to his declaration that mass and energy were interdependently related, with one being the equivalent of the other as either end of an equation. Originally, it included the velocity and momentum of a particle in question, IIRC, but if you zeroed-out those variables (which is sort of a Laplacian conjecture, if you ask me), you arrive at the simplified E=mc^2.
I've read enough of what Einstein wrote to know that if he were alive today, the last thing he'd want to be called is a genius, and that he never promised to know more than he did.
What people fail to appreciate about his famous quote that "God doesn't play dice with the universe" is that it simultaneously asks you to imagine both God and the Universe, and describe the difference.
He's subtle like that.
Because if you don't imagine that there's any difference between them at all, then there's no way they could play dice in the first place, since that requires two separate opponents rolling a cube of bone across a flat surface.
So there's no problem with quantum uncertainty. It's just a thing we're continuing to discover the limits of, just like Einstein was reconciling with the speed of light. If transgenderism is no longer considered to be a mental illness, why do a majority of trans people experience gender disphoria? Is gender disphoria no longer recognized? And why is the attempted suicide rate so high amongst trans people?
I don't understand why we've given transgenderism a flag and we're teaching impressionable, young children that this is ok behavior from a young age. I think we're putting stuff in their head that they should come to their own conclusion about when they're older.
Can someone change my mind or help me understand? If I were standing in the bed of a truck going 60mph and I fired a gun with a bullet speed of 700mph, would the bullet be travelling at 760mph or 700mph?
Alternatively if I shot the gun backwards off the truck would the bullet be travelling at 640mph?
And also, If I were to fire a bullet at the speed of light the same direction the truck is travelling, couldn't it theoretically be travelling the speed of light+60mph? I've exchanged fapping to porn with writing fully customizable sexual stories with AI using AI Dungeon, can it cause similar or greater harm to my brain and neurotransmitters?

Will I be wasting my time or is there enough basic thought behind thinking about other dimensions here to be worth the read? I came up with a problem for you, /sci/.
Can you solve it? wtf man. I don't know what to think now.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESzs5SdX7_4 I've seen COVID19 infection and death statistics, and also informed myself on how it works on a basic level since I dont know biology, i see that it has a super low death rate which is probably even lower since alot of infections arent reported, and the quasi totality of deaths are old people in the 60 to 90 age range, so why should people stay closed in their houses, close shops and dont do shit for all that time?
One reason given to me is to not overload hospitals, but it seems stupid to block everything just to avoid that.
The other is just stupid emotionality: "people are dying for that dont you care?".
The only reasonable one I have thinked of is that the virus mutates thanks to all the reproduction mass contagion affords it and becomes a nasty one.
But besides that I dont see why not roll the dice and just say fuck it let's open up and restart living, who dies dies. Hi /sci/. So I'm running a decent fever today and was wondering about the function of fevers as a hostile environment to various pathogens, as well as a buff for your immune system's Macrophages among other things. I was wondering if anti-fever medications (called anti-pyretics) are actually counter-productive towards the goal of eliminating a given infection.
If the fever itself is a powerful tool in the immune system's arsenal to fight infection wouldn't you be extending your time spent in sickness at the benefit of reducing painful symptoms? I was imagining that if you wanted to speed up your recovery that it would theoretically be beneficial to grit your teeth through a fever instead of using OTC medications like Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen. Any thoughts on this theory? Exposition?
So I took Calc 1 about a year ago, and barely squeaked by with a 70. The professor obviously passed me out of pity. I did horrible and if it wasn't for participation grades my grade would have easily been closer to a 30.
My fundamentals in algebra and trigonometry are extremely shaky. I went through my first Cal 2 lecture and quickly realized I had to drop the course because I was completely and utterly lost, couldn't do the basic review homework.
I guess I'm wondering where I should start so that I can be ready to take Cal 2 by next Fall? Is there some assessment I can take online to find out where I should begin learning? Basic Mathematics by Serge Lang? I simply want to truly understand the material on a theoretical level, meaning I want to be able to do proofs.
I know this is an utter mess grammatically, and I'm in a bit of a panic realizing how long I've been in school and wondering if I will be able to pass Cal 2 and Cal 3 in the future. Where should I start? Where do I even begin? Should I just start from my schools Calculus book beginning to end? Is 7 months enough to master Cal 1 and trigonometry?
I really want to know this stuff, I know one thing it requires is lots and lots of practice and I'm willing to do this I just need a direction.
Thank you all, I'm in panic mode. There are more things in heaven and in earth than are dreamt of in your philosophies, Horacio. What are, neurologic, hormonal, genetic and physiological factors for high intelligence? Alright /sci/, we have constant threads about NoFap and porn use, but let's discuss hentai use specifically. Is there a different effect profile? Is it better or worse? It would seem to me that the fact that they aren't real people, the ability to depict impossible scenes, doujins which tell actual stories more often than modern porn, and being able to appreciate technical aspects of the art style, scene composition, etc, would all afford very different impacts on the psyche. I've been reading a lot of side effects such as decreased sperm counts etc How do hormones affect cognition?
Could I take testosterone to not be a retard anymore? When will this evil cult get banned?
Hey /sci/. Can you help me? Let us visualize together and try to make a representation of math, from the most basic and fundamental to the most sophisticated and removed from normal.
On the lowest tier I guess would be recognizing the indo-arabic numbering system. The symbols from 1-9 and their names.
Then would come familiarization with zero. And then with zero, come defining 10. And with defining 10, the idea of the New Columns and New Rows and the Decimal System.
Basically, every new concept of math you introduce must be only one tier removed from familiar concepts which have been explored and come before. So, I guess, addition and subtraction would come before multiplication and division, which would come before calculus.
I'm specifically looking for a tiered tree so that some math subjects can sit in parallel. And any math that requires multiple things from the tier below, naturally, obviously, belongs in a tier just above that.
I've found some interesting math subject trees before but they were hopeless schizophrenic messes. Not clean tiered trees. Surely, there's a finite number of subjects and concepts a person comes across in the subject of math from Kindergarten to university high honors trigonometry, right?
I'm not asking you to do the work for me, this is a conversation thread. We can discuss where a math subject might sit and how many concepts removed from "basic god damned child counting to 10" it sits. But, the hope is to get a roadmap of milestones and disciplines leading to these advanced subjects build on more fundamental stuff.
Talk with me, /sci/! hello retards and fags, i don't use /sci/ at all but i was wondering if anyone knows of any biology books that cover microchimerism at all since it seems like a pretty interesting idea and any biology course i've taken dosent really mention it but that was in highschool post sciency links and post sciency facts I want to learn from a broadly cast net
I will rabbit hole interesting things and yet I have it as one of my subjects, I don’t even have the knowledge of a middle schooler on this, pls help me, i have no clue how I made it this far with chemistry but I know I’m absolutely fucked if I don’t do something about it so please tell me what’s a good starting point, thanks Why do physics professors act like chemistry is beneath them? If anything chrmistry is a harder version of physics IMHO.> is there any correlation between being good at league and having a high IQ ?
for those who have never played league, it requires pattern recognition ( enemies on map and deducing an optimal strategy ) , memorization of each champions abilities and spells (150 + champs in the game)
there are so many different combinations of team comps and different stages within a game with unique playstyles and strategies.
this game isnt for brainlets, ask all the asians who regularly beat NA and EU in world finals >masturbation helps you understand your body better
is this statement grounded in science? >Engineers in an absolute and constant state of angst over work prospects and overproduction of elites
>Meanwhile people in entertainment are making hundreds of thousands doing nothing but dogshit tik tok videos and travelling around living off of advertisement
Th human elite? Can someone fill in the blanks for me please?
Question: Name the integumentary system structures indicated by the arrows in the blanks, one-half point each. How does one derive the equations of motion from QFT? In a unified theory, surely this is possible, no? Yet it hasn't been done.
As a follow up, one should be able to derive classical mechanics from QFT using statistical averaging, right? But no one has done this yet.
Hmm seems like physics isn't as unified as they would like you to believe No one else can

Fuck haters What is the point of baldness from the standpoint of evolution?
>tfw norwood 7 at 18 Such as that there would be infinitely many universes where your dog is president?
And that you are immortal? (In fact, it's worse than that-there would be infinitely many universes where you live infinitely.) What will replace the idea of time-space? What are the best textbooks on classical field theory? Post academics that you think are as smart as you are. Not in terms of achievements, but in terms of pure brainpower.
I'll start. Tell me /sci/, would it possible for an animal or creature to evolve to not only withstand radiation but sustain itself on it? Is there profit to be made in space? How can we convince private companies to explore and make money from beyond the earth? /Odd Radio Circles/
What exactly are they? Could these be the first technosignatures? They do not emit any other forms of light other than radiowaves. Would it be possible to make a laser weapon using giant space mirrors? By that I mean having a giant laser on the ground and a giant mirror in geosynchronous orbit, and using the giant mirror to bounce the laser back at wherever you want it to go.
Thoughts? Is the scientific method used because it "just works", or is there some metaphysical and/or a priori argument for using the scientific method? If the answer is the former, what makes the scientific method better than any other method that "just works"? Wouldn't it then be susceptible to black swan scenarios? anyone use the pomodoro studying technique or is it just a placebo? share studying techniques... Where do you chemists buy all your chemicals? the dark web?
I need some cyanide to mix with various plant extracts to see how they react. Wtf i actually agree with taleb on something >New Dose.
Discuss the vaccine, science of mRNA and general current data.
Can I also ask you all to by all means engage and debate but be aware of deliberate sliding.
mRNA discussions based and worth reading for many different questions and points.

>>12565237 What does /sci/ thinks about after man? I'm 18. My twin brother mogs me in height by three inches and it pisses me off. People compare my small height to him and I can tell people respect him more because of it. I'm only 5'10" but is it possible to increase my height to 6'0" by the time I'm 21 through HGH? How else could I increase my height, at my age? All systems have bugs, how do I break the universe? What causes someone to browse /sci/ How do we fix this, /sci/ ? Ok, /sci/, need a honest opinion here, does pornography is truly harmful for us? There are any evidence out there that supports this view? I go to a mid ranking uni in the UK, I didn't work very hard during HS and had a bad living siutation - older bro was addicted to heroin and overdosed that year.
My actual IQ is 115, I feel a bit like a brainlet. I tried not being arrogant and I'm still the only intelligent person in a sea of dumb cunts. neither of them are eugenic both are dysgenic
they use finns with a n haplo group the n haplo group is not east asian and finns have very little asian admixture(1-2 percent). central asians are worse at sports and have a haplo group found in east asia. and even if they have higher testosterone from the white womb that would be linked with lower iq, they present no evidnece the AMWF childern are actually better at sport and manuvers around the fact that central asians are worse at sports and many have east asian paternal DNA, but she uses non east asian groups in any way to make her sports point.
