/sci/ - Science & Math

Yeah you could try and do all this cool, expensive but ultimately worthless stuff for science, or you could make a lot of money and then come back to science later on when a few thousand dollars is pocket money.

Pic related, dense but pretty good

Get some borosilicate glassware!!! you can do anything with that stuff! You could make your own antihistamines or be really fancy and try to synthesise antibiotics or something... Then when you're older, you can make your own psychedelics and extract your own entheogens!

a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d, so

ok wtf

anger gets us nowhere...

None of my friends were beaten to the best of my knowledge. They're all fine individuals who'll make something positive of their life.

If a child "needs" corporal punishment to control his actions then he either has a mental disability or there is something seriously wrong with his home life and how he was raised. A child should not need to be disciplined in any physically violent way.

You can't get mad, emirates

I don't understand how people can fall for religion, but we're all entitled to our opinions as long as we don't negatively effect other peaceful individuals.

You know /sci,

As much as I complain about the human condition and other similar problems, I have to say that the human race is brilliant. We've been through thick and thin, massacres and triumphs; building constructs and working at a scientific level previously inconceivable by our ancestors not even 100 years prior. Our computers, our smartphones, the internet; all cutting edge technology. Everything is available at the touch of our fingertips.

That's why I'm raising a glass to science and humanity this Christmas. Keep being awesome.

Focus on the money and the rest will sort itself out. Financial trading or entreprenuerial pursuits. It's hard but I think I'll get the hang of it eventually.

I don't think steel is compatible with chlorate. Brass, bronze or any copper alloy certainly isnt. You will need something like titanium I think... Chlorate is a very strong oxidizer, and will form explosive copper chlorate with Cu and it might very well just eat through your steel tubing.

I'd advise looking into a perchlorate based propellant.

I hope you have a lot of money man, because this isn't going to go ahead if you dont :P

An acid base extraction? google it man..

EK is the code for Emirates airline flights btw. Emirates is cool. Are you an emirate?

How are you guys fleshing this out so much? If I get friendzoned when I've made it clear that I don't want another friend, then I cut it off. No bush bashing, just plain and simple.

There's something very special about a close relationship between a guy and a girl when it can go all the way to sex. Not that it has to though!! Nothing wrong with it just being kissing and cuddling though right?

>>4175867

Sounds like a good train of thought man. I haven't been friend zoned before and won't put up with it if I do.

And this is most fucking definitely science

The most beautiful women should never have to worry about all that, imo...

Dude just go to a hydroponics store or fertilizer supplier, this stuff isnt hard to find.

Well I was going to get into MDMA production but I slapped myself and came to my senses in a metaphorical way after I realized that there was no way I could distribute it safely.

But the chemical business is more or less a repackaging business... I source and buy bulk and cut it down to size thats suitable for small users. Acids, solvents, bases, that kinda stuff. Stuff that is actually pretty hard to source these days.

how long did it take you to get the hang of TA and what do you mean by C++ functions?

>>4173751

Well I'm not going to spoon feed you... valuable skills are developed when you find stuff out yourself. That video has a lot of information on it, and a few google searches will reveal how to make your PSU suitable for the task.

Check sciencemadness and do google searches for chlorate cells. If you are in america, I suggest you just buy it. Im in hinky dinky NZ so its impossible to get it here and one must synth it.

The source of the anodes is described in the vid too.

Homeopathists who know they sell placebo? wow.

Your KCl... try an industrial hydroponics store or try the water treatment chem companies. Especially america... water softeners, that kind of shit. A good hydrponics supplier will hook your up, lol. Nitrate, S, acids, and when you get known there you can start buying vermiculite for shrooms and grow lights for your weed...

I like what you're planning... I only ever got as far as explosives and bottle rockets, lol. But I think your rocket will need to be very big to get up into space. This is going to cost some serious $$. Solid propellants will work but you're going to need something more high performance than a chlorate or perchlorate/fuel mix.

A real boss would make it detonate an explosives payload at it's apex, hahaha.

oh my good god are you boiling bleach for chlorate? Man, either buy it or make it electrolytically.

Just a bit of confirmation that I'm on the right track here guys...

Fellas,

How many people here took up financial markets and entrepreneurial pursuits when they were in highschool?

I'm trying to run a small chemical business and learn technical analysis for trading forex/stocks and then hopefully options, but boy oh boy is this some hard shit. I think I need a bit of support lol...

I'm trying to finish "Technical analysis of the financial markets" by John J murray, and even though I'm slowly getting through it, I'm not remembering much and it's fucking hard to stay on task. I've been doing this for nigh on two years now and I still feel like I'm getting "taught" by the markets and my business doesn't regularly pull in over $150/week.

Anyone with experience in either of these fields? Any words of advice or maybe a brief rundown of how you started and progressed? I'm still in highschool so I've got a long way to go, but I think if you sort out the monies the rest will follow. Doing maths or chem or physics, it's about reading a textbook atm... but this is a whole new challenge.

Some of these businessmen... make money out of anything... it's crazy..

Pic related? I don't know..

Don't we all love sterilized pseudo science?
Ignore objective reality, parrot your math!

F(n+2)=f(n)

I've been working withe these numbers, and I was wondering if an obvious pattern immediately jumped out at anyone:

n : F(n+2) : values for each possible amount of 1's
3 : 5 : 1+n+(n-2){1}
4 : 8 : 1+n+(n-2)(n-1)/2{1}
5 : 13 : 1+n+(n-2)(n-1)/2+(n-4){1}
6 : 21 : 1+n+(n-2)(n-1)/2+(n-4)(n-3)/2+{n-5}{1}
7 : 34 : 1+n+(n-2)(n-1)/2+(n-4)(n-3)(n-2)/6+(n-6)(n-5)(n-4)/6{1}
8 : 55 : 1+n+(n-2)(n-1)/2+(n-3)(n-2)(n-1)/6+(n-5)(n-4)(n-3)/6+(n-7)(n-6)(n-5)/6{1}

If anyone here is unfamiliar with Fibonacci Cubes, you take a string of n digits of 1's and 0's and create all possible strings where no two 1's are touching. I've arranged my terms so that each term represents each amount of 1's used. The {1} at the end of each line is to show that each final term equals 1.

That was supposed to say USA #1.
