Read ^ as to why deflation is bad for an economy.

I swear to god every conspiracy theorist fuck actually has zero knowledge of the subjects they speculate on.

inb4 conditioned by insitutions
inb4 sheep
inb4 you live the rest of the life thinking you are being controlled, when in fact the only thing limiting your pathetic life is yourself.

When did I say anything about scientists using windows you cunt-fuck. Windows (as in the OS) is written in C++. I have no idea what you are on about.

>get proof of manuscript back
>looks good
>the editor included a citation of one of his in press papers without telling me

And the editor is well respected and the journal is too (impact factor ~15 or so).

People think science is so objective, but this is just one of a few examples I have come across of so-called "prominent scientists" doing self-serving unethical bullshit moves.

Ow man, fucking Quadratic function, how does it work?!
Could someone explain this to me in very simple way?

Hey sci, I was thinking one day and found out there is no point in life.

so basically, i think a person's characteristics are based on

>person's experience (where he/she grew up, what he learnt, listened, watched, tasted, saw etc)
>DNA - basic instinct which we inherited from out ancestors

these are not something we can control and these things make up who we are and effects every dicision in our life.

thus we think we have free will but the judgement we make everyday is only because of how we grow up and our ancestors genes

philosophy why science how

Do children really learn faster than adults, or this just a myth? Any proofs?

what the hell?

>In chemistry class
>Cute girl asks me how I figured out how many atoms there is in C3 H7 O3 N

>I tell her to add the numbers
>She smiles and hesitates
>I wait a solid 7 seconds before saying "3 plus 7 plus 3 is? ......
>No answer so I help her and say 13 and explains to her that the N is one atom so the total becomes 14.

Luckily enough I maintained a straight face throughout that incident.

How is it possible for a material to have a permeability less than that of free space?

Also, how does permeability apply to magnets

does this have anything to do with explaining at all about traveling into the past

based on what i know to be kinda proven, i dont think so, there would need to be some fucked dimension or something that we can enter

why cant people think we are here by random chance

answer this one too

for meaningful values of x, ((2x)/(x+3)) - ((x^2 -x -6)/(x^2 - 9))

a) ((x^2 +3x +6) / (x^2-9))
b) ((x^2 + x +6) / (x^2 - 9))
c) ((x-2) / (x+3))
d) -(2/3)

When will we be free from the tyranny of religious delusion?

Free will. can it exist? Yes? no? partially? if we really had true free will things would be chaos? think you not?

Oh and pic related. It's a muslim gravestone covered in bacon. the muslims cant get it off cos no one can get near the bacon.

are you me?

7:30 am Ochem final currently 6:55am bout to head out the door and own this test

what the hell. is this even real? pic related

Let |x| < 1, derive the formulae for the infinite series of:
1) x + 2x^2 + 3x^3 + ...
2) x + 2^2*x^2 + 3^2*x^3 + ...

Common sense and a bit of trial and error shows that:
1) = Sigma[n=0 to infinity] of n*x^n
2) = Sigma[n=0 to infinity] of n^2*x^n

But how do I actually derive that? :/

Hey nerds, are we all gonna die from this or what?
