If evolution is real, then why are there still monkey? Seriously, how can you believe in evolution if it's just a theory (a geuss)? Fucking atheists.

The idea of an infinite universe is incompatible with conservation of energy. Discuss.

Your mom is an energy.

You're fucking retarded.

Fine. These two will blow your fucking mind.

Hey /sci/, got an applied mathematical theoretical question for you. How insignificant is insignificant?

Lets say that an observed quantity of oxygen, 5.501*10^22 mols, is the net result of a repeatable experimental reaction.

The existing quantum chemistry theories predict that the net quantity for the reaction should be 5.4826*10^22 mols.

A new/revised quantum chemistry theory predicts that the net quantity for the reaction should be 5.4372*10^17 mols.

The new theory is within five orders of magnitude of the old theory; but still, the ratio of the new to old prediction is about 0.00001 when it ought to be closer to 0.999

Is the new theory total garbage because of this discrepancy? Or is this kind of theoretical difference usually considered to be within acceptably limits of error, and worthy of continued testing and development?

tldr how wrong is wrong? 5 orders of magnitude? 10? 20?

Relativity. A magnetic field is the 3-dimensional phenomenon of the electric current behaving as a single charged object with energy density existing in the timelike dimension.

That is to say, the energy density of the magnetic field is directly proportional to the time derivative of the current. As such, we see there is a relativistic relationship between the strength of the magnetic field and the amount of Coulombs in the wire at any given infinitesimal of time.

The theory that explains this relationship is what we humans refer to as Special Relativity, and it has implications for the nature of all energy densities, not just for electro-dynamical ones.

THE MORE YOU KNOW -===(<^>)

Gravity is a thermodynamic phenomenon of the differences in kinetic entropy density between the various dimensions of space-time. Further more, space-time isn't a real thing, the entire universe is a dimensionless holographic phase space that tracks the information states of it's own energy.

FALSIFY IT, NIGGERS

Is it possible to accidentally decide to do something?

Oxygen is reactive, nitrogen is not.

Oh. Well lets put that behind us. He check out this cool shit I found, it's called chloroform. Smell it :)

Here come the summerfags,
Here come the summerfags,
Right down 4chan lane,
They're gonna come and spam your boards,
And you're going to complain,
There is so much fucking shit
And you are really pissed,
The mods can't even control it
Cause the summmerfags come today.

For a while the homework thread was considered inexcusable on /sci/. But lately I've been seeing a better reaction to them.
I think that there are a lot of very smart people on /sci/ representing a variety of branches of science and mathematics, and homework threads are an opportunity for /sci/ to show off its stuff. Worse still is when a legitimate brain teaser is presented but flamed down by people claiming it is homework.
I never start homework threads, but if I can offer help I always post.

What is your opinion /sci/?
