/sci/ - Science & Math

There are sports that test the ability to develop strength, to play chess, to run fast, to run or swim for a long time. Do any competitions test other things though, like how accurately you can identify the frequency of a tone played on a speaker, or how accurately you can count to 100, or how accurately you could identify the temperature of randomly heated standardized warmer plates

Is this competition done at all? Is it niche or completely non-existent? Why isn't it widespread? It seems like something that would be a thing to compete about theoretically to expand the accurate of your mind during moments of focus at analyzing your senses, such as the passage of time or the temperature of an object. Does it have any practical uses though? Maybe not, so that's why it isn't trained. But is it a part of being human that we are missing?

Found out I didn't transfer into my #1 school today /sci/. Where are some good places for Computer or Electrical Engineering on the East Coast?

mfw I fail several times at a question.

Can I get some help please? It's kind of an emergency.

A 0.900g balloon is filled with helium gas until it becomes a 20.0cm -diameter sphere.

What maximum mass can be tied to the balloon (with a massless string) without the balloon sinking to the floor? Assume the density of air is = 1.28 kg/m^3 and the density of helium is = 0.18 kg/m^3.

Our society will never be as free and happy as the american during the 1920's

When they say Bachelor of science, they literally me bachelor right?

Has anyone here studied 'News media processes' at University?

Ive got a paper to do on Political Economy and im finding it near impossible to do, i literally have no idea what the fuck is going on.

this is one part of it, could any one give me a helping start please?

>When journalism or media studies researchers invoke the concept of “political economy”, what do they mean, and what kind of things are they likely to analyse? To support your answer, identify at least 2 issues that a political economy researcher might look at if they analysed any of the media outlets cited in your news diary

Outlets i used, were Television and Internet (social networks), news websites

c) Becoming female. Semi-related to a) though.

You will never into economy because it doesn't science.

Any reason to still go to college anymore? Just seems like another way to get ass deep in debt. I mean, it's hard enough just to find a shitty job nowadays.

BECAUSE THE MAJORITY OF HUMANS ONLY CARE ABOUT THEMSELVES AND WHATEVER THEY CAN GRAB ON TO!
Don't you realize?
You're preaching the end of all individual thought and quests for knowledge.
You're argument doesn't sound at all un-human in nature to you?

God damn I'm a retard.

How does it feel knowing that every thought you think and every idea you come up with has probably already been thought up before by either the other 7 billion humans alive today or by the billions more who already died?

My talents lie in humanitarian studies - I would really find it difficult to get my maths skills up to scratch at this point
