How do I navigate the sticky? What order do I attack it in?

Personally, I think current nuclear plants aren't awesome enough.

We should make it portable!

Jealousy no doubt. Pic related.

Also, puddi.

A biologist, a mathematician, and a engineer are sitting by an empty building. Two people enter, then shortly after, 3 walk out. The engineer remarks, 'We must have miscounted', The biologist remarks 'They must have multiplied. The mathmetician thinks, and remarks 'If one more person goes in, the building will be empty again.'
Mathematician, Physicist, Engineer walking through a field come upon a farmer.

The farmer asks what is the best way to construct a fence that will contain his livestock (ie., most area for least perimeter). The physicist does some calculus and concludes that the best way to do this is a square fence. The engineer looks at him and laughs. "No, the best way is a circle". The physicist concedes and they start building the fence.

The mathematician just sits there for a while and eventually stands up, puts a small piece around himself and says "I declare myself to be outside"

Deal with it engineer haters.

a scifap thread. ok.
to say einstein's theory of special relativity places a cosmic speed limit would be innacurate only because of our concept of speed limites; you go over it, you're fined. you can still go over it though. not so with light.
imagine being on a planet in a particular location of the universe. you are orbiting a star, which in turn orbits about the center of its galaxy, which is also co-orbiting its local galactic cluster who are all being influenced by every other galaxy in the universe. you know you're traveling at a speed, but without a reference point such a value is meaningless.
einstein's theory guarantees that if you were to choose any point in the entire universe as a reference point to measure your velocity, its magnitude will never be greater than or equal to light speed, and this applies to the velocity of any object relative to any other object in the entire universe.
when objects approach light speed away or toward each other, the light reflected off of one and perceived by the other will be red-shifted or blue-shifted, respectively. this will also indicate that intense time dilation is occurring between these two objects.

The butthurt in this thread is overwhelming.
