ill give just the first three that come to my mind
>nuclear waste (expensive to store and treat, lots of effort required)
>nuclear plants require a lot of space, and cant be build anywhere, need a fresh water supply, also cant be build in zones with seismic activity, the plants also are expensive to maintain as they need to match high safety standards and constant check-ups
>practically limited resources are required as fuel, preparation of radioactive material is extensive

Does psychology work?

How is that a problem? It's a logical implication I fully agree with,

>Free will is most likely an illusion, because:
>A technologically mature “posthuman” civilization would have enormous computing power
>Based on this empirical fact, the simulation argument shows that at least one of the following propositions is true:
>(1) The fraction of human‐level civilizations that reach a posthuman stage is very close to zero;
>(2) The fraction of posthuman civilizations that are interested in running ancestor‐simulations is very close to zero;
>(3) The fraction of all people with our kind of experiences that are living in a simulation is very close to one.

How the fuck do I make learning math more interesting?
Or is there a point where it actually starts getting interesting, because right now I'm trying to reattain my forgotten knowledge from these past 3 years of not continuing my education. So it's feels like a drag doing this low level stuff compared to what I see here during the day.

We'll get there.

Cool story.
>I have seen things.
Any scientific base or should this be considered anecdotal evidence, in which case, shouldn't you go back to /x/?

>Inertia following the right hand rule

can you define inertia ?

no this comes from continental philosophy. specifically postmodernism. continental philosophy is basically theocrats, nazis, communists, and feminists trying to destroy western civilization by undermining the enlightenment

I (think) I've calculated how many possible tic-tac-toe games (played to completion) there are.

I figured on the first move, there are 9 possible moves. On the second move, there are 8 possible moves, then 7, 6, 5, and so on.

So the total number of potential games should be 9!.

But some games don't take up the full 9 moves because they are won before the board is filled up. So how many winning games are there?

The absolute earliest one can win is on the 5th move. E.g: X, O, X, O, X (win). There are 8 ways to do that.

Likewise, there are 8 ways for O to win on the 6th move, 8 ways for X to win on the 7th move, 8 ways for O to win on the 8th move, and 8 ways to for X to win on the 9th move.

Is there anything I'm missing? Because it looks like it's easier to win if you're the first player. That doesn't sound right.
