idk just don't be a piece of shit waste of space?

I take a look around at the world, and I think "Hard work? Seems good" with a thumbs up to match. But no I guess everyone must have the same unmotivated perspective as you do.

Did the company leaked the information on purpose or do they have shit security? What to the research group gain from those questions? Is this a standard practice for a listed engineering company?

Hey all,

I'm reading Iain Banks 'Culture' series, and currently on 'Consider Phlebas' (didn't read them in order I know). So something got me thinking...

I recently watched this video that depicts the side of a ringworld/orbital:

If the orbitals are really this big, give or take, how is the gravity on them not many many times that greater than Earth? Thus reducing the need for it to spin anyways?

How are there so many scientists when science is so boring?

This guy reckons that because GR and QM have strange predictions that go against intuition, every physicist is brainwashed and just reciting what they have been told is true.

In this blog you will see:
--the word "stupid" used in every second sentence
--frequently referring to science as an oppressive, all-powerful religion
--Indian guy telling everyone their minds are soiled and indoctrinated, so they cannot understand his straightforward reasoning
--hopeless appeals to ether theories to explain Young's double slit experiment
--a shameful misunderstanding of basic, basic physics

This one in particular got me:

>"From the above descriptions, we can imagine work as displacement of a body in the direction of force which implies that work is a vector quantity and points in the same direction as that of the force. And that makes sense too."
