/sci/ - Science & Math

What is the simplest way to break human bones without using any extra equipment suck as sticks? At what angles and how do you press the limbs against the joints for the easiest result? What about fingers? Torso bones such as ribs?

What is the best way of catching rodents you know/can come up with?

Clearly, it can't be lethal since the best way to ultimately get rid of them is to create a mouse (rat) cannibal and let it go (Mouster or Hannirat if you will).

Protip: simplicity and elegance, not complexity and contrivence, are signs of intelligence

How can we possibly know that c, for example, is exactly what it is? It's technologically impossible to measure the exact value of anything, since there's always some error, and in case it was derived from formula we can be only as sure about it's value as we are about the theory from which the formula are taken.

I guess this is official thread now

Gentlemen. I'm just gonna say what everyone is thinking. We are facing a crisis. The biggest in the history of the board.
And it's hard to keep optimistic despite what's happing around us - I think I'm talking for everybody, when I say that it feels like the digital floor underneath out virtual feet is cracking.

But sometimes in a moment like this one can really look around and see the truth of the matter. The real truth. The unpleasant truth.

And the truth is, a lot of blue boards extremely lack in quality. Not only they have limitations on free speech, supposedly designed to keep up a bar of quality, they unquestionably allow low level trolling, meme forcing and outright shitposting. I'm gonna talk about /sci/, because it's a board that's most dear to me, but also because it's the clearest example of everything that's wrong with thematics.

If you have been on sci for at least a couple months, you probably noticed, that overwhelming majority of threads can be summed up by the following categories:

Gorilla threads - primitive baits about fundamentally unscientific questions, that is, questions that cannot be logically defined. Full of moronic sophism and absolutely proud to be retarded.

Religion/philosophy threads - questions/theses that clearly don't belong on sci.

Figures of science/popsci threads - threads like how many IQ points did Einstein have, was Neumann really able to levitate using the power of his intellect, "what do you think about Michio Kaku?", Black Science Man (hell, one time there was FIVE NDT threads on the first page, and it wasn't something rare either), etc

Popsci threads - quantum bullshit, consciousness in robots, "does photon flying in the opposite direction of another one fly with 2c?", cyberskeletons, etc

TONS of homework and literature recommendation threads when there are threads specifically created for these purposes and in fact are always on the first page

The list goes on.

Why when I shit or, especially, experience diarrhea waiting inside to be released or fuck myself in the ass, I experience coldness all over the body - shivers in fact? Is there a known explanation for this?
It's the most unpleasant thing about diarrhea.

It does sound nice...

As someone who used to be a pathetic GAD 10-12 hour sleeper and has begun to overcome it, I find 5 hours to be more than enough and 4 - just enough, with possible episodes of sleepiness (up to 3, but usually just 1 closer to the evening).

Today I woke up after 3 hours of sleep cause I was hungry and you can bet your ass I'm gonna make it all the way throughout the day, while remaining productive.

It's all about breaking/substituting/creating a habbit. Heard about Penn Jillette losing like 300 kilos in two weeks by not being a fucking pig for those 2 weeks? Create a habbit of going to bed and waking up at certain times, have the responsive alarms for that. If you feel sleepy to the point of being useless and depressed, just play vidya or watch movies all day.
After 2 weeks of that, I guaruntee, you'll be laughing at 5+ hours of sleep cucks for the rest of your life.

I know this will probably shock ameritards and eurofaggots, but 8-10+ hours of sleep is a meme, one of the biggest, right there with dehydration and 6 meals per day.

What programming language should I start with? My ultimate goal is to be a mathematical physicist and make some money during uni by writing adware for facebook and shit.

Writing here because the contingent is smarter and sci-related.
