/sci/ - Science & Math

>>5120079
well, there ya go

Why can't we just all be nice to each other and discuss science and math in a civilized manner?

I see so many trolls and shitposter on here. So many people throwing around insults, spamming reports and arguing with ad hominem attacks.

Let us all try to be more friendly to each other and to discuss things neutrally.
Let's have arguments that consist of objective facts instead of fallacies.
And let's don't be ashamed to admit when we were wrong.
Last and most important: Let us agree to not feed trolls anymore.

Can /sci/ become a better place?

YEAH,
AND IF YOUR AN ASTRONAUT WHEN YOU GET BACK TO EARTH YOU HAVE TO PUT ALL YOUR FOOD IN A BLENDER BEFORE YOU CAN EAT IT FOREVER BECAUSE YOUR BODY MESTABLISMS CANT DIGEST SOLID FOOD ANYMORE UNLESS ITS SUPER FREEZE DRIED.

i know this becasue my dad was an astronaut then he went to space and it ruined my parents marraige because.

:/ Perhaps you are correct. Being soft on yourself is something the stereotypical gender studies graduate would suggest.
You ARE right. I'll stop whining and google up some ballsy self control remedies. Thank you for your help!

I should also mention that I'm agnostic. You should also take note at how hated on that word is too and pretty much all by atheists. Theists are generally very polite when trying to persuade an agnostic. I'm not trying to wage an argument and I don't carry screenshots, I'm just putting this stuff out there and truly rational people -- people not only able to use reason but also able to derive and understand other's reasoning -- will take all of what I said into proper consideration.

Impalement as a method of torture and execution involves a person being pierced with a long stake. The penetration could be through the sides, through the rectum, through the vagina, or through the mouth. This method leads to a painful death, sometimes taking days. The stake would often be planted in the ground, leaving the impaled person suspended to die.
In some forms of impalement, the stake would be inserted so as to avoid immediate death, and would function as a plug to prevent blood loss. After preparation of the victim, perhaps including public torture and rape, the victim was stripped and an incision was made in the perineum between the genitals and rectum. A stout pole with a blunt end was inserted. A blunt end would push vital organs to the side, greatly slowing death.
The pole would often come out of the body at the top of the sternum and be placed against the lower jaw so that the victim would not slide farther down the pole. Often, the victim was hoisted into the air after partial impalement. Gravity and the victim's own struggles would cause him to slide down the pole

Whats the best way to ferment the Jenk? I kept mine in the basement for a week, inhaled the fumes in the balloon and didn't feel shit!

Get over it faggots, /sci/ was never good, /sci/ was never pure science & mathematics, /sci/ was never troll-free. But I like it like this, at least we got SOME science SOMETIMES, what the fuck can you hope, you're on 4chan after all.

DEAL WITH IT

OK. I am interested in learning about some math stuff. Compound interest and stuff...

Say I gave up smoking cigarettes today that cost $4.00/pack and invested it in a mutual fund instead? I don't even know the average rate of return, but I'd guess 15% if it doesn't suck cock.

So... $4.00 * 365 = $1460.00 of money to invest
I'm 20 now (today is my birthday!) and figure I'll retire around 70 (60, I wish)... so 50 (or 40!) years that I'll be able to invest $1460 a years. Compound interest, how does it work? (Yeah, I'm visiting from /b/ but I am not trying to piss you smart guys off or anything. I'm really just curious and I'm not very smart with math)

Could I seriously be rich by the time I'm ready to retire IF I just give this shit up?

so he was an idiot and said /b/ instead of /sci/. I get confused by the content here too.

Interesting topic still, so I'm game.
