You have it backwards. God is responsible for the universe, and materialist atheists rely on constructs and kludge to try to avoid having to address that.

>>15467193
We literally just die bro. That's all there is to it. And is dying so bad if it means escaping hell? No.

>>15467194
Should have been more clear, I'm saying that with our study of quantum mechanics we are butting against the mechanism of action of the holy spirit

Oh yeah in that case it certainly seems that way sometimes.

you said you were slow at mental math

It's fine. Use a calculator, anon. If you always feel anxious or in despair about it to the point where its affecting your qol, it's time to stop. Nothing is worth that feeling.

>>15467012
you sure do seem to like talking about yourself on social media

>>15467146

Considering this is one of the few websites I use ( even though its not safe) its place I can sort of rely on.

>>15467144
Got be honest, its already doing so. Its pretty much shut me down on all hobbies at this point.

do you want to actually make money?
>MIT
are you a sperg who really doesnt care about anything other than science?
>caltech

>>15466997
Caltech only accepts 500 undergraduates a year. Getting in is basically impossible

Both are fucking diversity woke infested garbage.
China is the future

>>15467204
Imagine not being in the top 500 Amerifats, at what point do you just end it all and hope to re-roll with a higher IQ?

>>15467212
neither of these two universities practice AA. if u somehow didnt get in, u have only yourself to blame

good.
fuck polar bears.

>>15466979
You’re a piece of shit.

>>15466978
I turn it on in May and turn it off in October so I guess I'm only killing one polar bear per year.

yea, fuck polar bears

>>15467125
tried "long sleeves" and didn't change anything, so meh.

Jesus fuck, get your AI to draw in teeth. Also kys shuttlecuck

What is Starship-chan's expression conveying here? She looked smug and self-assured in the original but in this she's.. :(

wouldn't say schizo necessarily. the drugs are so powerful that they make basic life responsibilities totally pointless. the synthetic opioids are also partial paralytics, which is why everyone is going floppy out there. people who manage to get out of that hell are damaged, but generally aren't schizo. they just had sad lives.

Crisis actors working overtime, eh?

>>15467135
Crust-punks probably. They're from upper-middle or upper-class backgrounds but do a lot of drugs and sleep rough on the street because of their antisocial ideologies.

The Sahara is there for a reason, anon. We don't want to make it easy to cross.

When you decide to focus on nuclear power instead of natural resource bullshit.

>>15466908
already do this

>>15466893
short answer: no
long answer: no

Why?

>>15466893
Wikipedia is am arm of the propaganda machine. Use something else.

>>15466950
for example

>>15466893
wikipedia can only be used for general knowledge
possibly to help you decide if you want to study the topic further

>>15466856
remember for how long?

>>15466916
months, or forever, like trivia or remembering japanese characters

Okay done. I call it "the computer"

Make it a rhyming song and obsessively sing it. That's how Indians preserved bronze age texts for millennia after millennia

It's never just genes, it's always genes + environment.

>>15466841
It would appear so.

>>15466845

isn't the scientific consensus moving toward the idea that genes actually do play a larger role than the mere influence of a given environment? (vs the conservative idea that nature vs nurture is 50/50)

see this study for reference (PMID: 25985137) :

>> We have conducted a meta-analysis of virtually all twin studies pub-lished in the past 50 years, on a wide range of traits and reporting on more than 14 million twin pairs across 39 different countries. Our results provide compelling evidence that all human traits are heritable: not one trait had a weighted heritability estimate of zero. The relative influences of genes and environment are not randomly distributed across all traits but cluster in functional domains. In general, we showed that reported estimates of variance components from model-fitting can underestimate the true trait heritability, when compared with heritability based on twin correlations. Roughly two-thirds of traits show a pattern of monozygotic and dizygotic twin correlations that is consistent with a simple model whereby trait resemblance is solely due to additive genetic variation. This implies that, for the majority of complex traits, causal genetic variants can be detected using a simple additive genetic model.

>he's got the same MBTI / enneagram as I do (and i'm speaking cognitive functions wise, not your average 16personalities normie test. yes i've read jung)

>>15466876
lmfao i knew i'd get shit on for mentioning this here but the pic made me laugh anyway

>>15466835
congrats

The proper way to handle people who mangle the scientific process to normalize pedophilia is probably jail

did anyone check that rind guy's hard drives?

>>15466843
Is it mangling the scientific process if your paper passes two separate rounds of peer review? If anything, it seems like this is indicating a flaw in the scientific process itself.
>In September 1999, the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), upon a request by the APA to independently review the article, stated that it saw no reason to second-guess the peer review process that approved it initially and that it saw no evidence of improper methodology or questionable practices by the authors.

not all unis/colleges are the same.

even a freshman math major at rice or unc chapel hill could run circles around a senior math major at oxford

You need to learn complex analysis, point-set topology, and modern algebra in European highschool?

>>15466805
That's why the USA has many of the best universities in the world?

I'm a materials engineer and polymer chemist.
Petroleum based plastic and their consequences have been a disaster for the human race. I'm speaking from a biological and environmental perspective.
We could give them up tomorrow, switch to appropriate metals, glass, ceramics, and cellulose polymers and lose almost nothing.

>>15466776
1. Plastics themselves are so inert that it's a problem. Is glass the same?
2. Most problems of "endocrine disruptor" are from additives not the plastic themselves. Those additive have far more uses besides plastics and can be removed if people accept again non-transparent/flexible and cheap plastics. Let's not even talk about direct contamination from sewage that contains a cocktail of drugs (including hormones), persistent organic contaminants, etc.

The microplastic hype is stupid and a filter for some groups, there's things far worse and harder to solve.

>>15466903
bits of plastic , glass, and rubber last forever. These are the three things I occasionally find in my yard. Majority of the time it is tiny plastic pieces, probably chopped up by a mower or blown in from somewhere else because it's light and floats. It settles in the grass and eventually joins the dirt on the surface layer. Rarely I will find one of each type when digging up to a foot in my yard. They sink but stay the same.

>>15466777
Nice trips; worthy book. More people need to talk about this.

I know a bit about electric motors. I can run stepper motors, induction motors (and change their direction of rotation), DC motors and universal motors (i can control their speed, direction and torque).
Induction motors with extra poles confuse me. I dont understand how they spin at half or a quarter speed of the AC frequency, luckily i dont need to understand that to use them.
