/sci/ - Science & Math

Did the animefag who subscribed to the arxiv mailing list and occasionally posted random articles die?

Do set theorists nowadays revere Cantor as one of the greatest in the field?

Scientifically speaking, why does jacking off to Yukari make me miss Yukarifag?
Also, scientifically speaking, why does Lubuntu take so long to log in? Anyone have any ideas? My computer has a shitty AMD gpu, so naturally I'm being fucked by the lack of proprietary drivers, but it shouldn't be this bad.

[math]g(x) = \frac{e^{|x|}}{2}[/math], right?
Anyhow, if [math]x < 0[/math], we compute [math]\frac{1}{2} \int_{- \infty}^x g(t) dt = \frac{1}{2} \int_{- \infty}^x e^t dt = \frac{e^x}{2}[/math].
If [math]x \geq 0[/math], we have that [math] G(x) = \int_{- \infty}^0 g(t) dt + \int_0 ^x g(t) dt = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2} \int_0^x e^{-t}dt = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{e^{-x}}{2} + \frac{e^0}{2} = 1 - \frac{e^{-x}}{2}[/math]
This could be wrong, but hey, at least it's continuous.

I picture Witten as writing some extremely high quality philosophy (that would naturally get snobbed by philosophers) or lighter texts about physics/maths.
But there's no rush.

Depression happens because humans are not programmed to live like kings. Remember that we're just animals? Our DNA programs us to feel inclined to breed, work, fight, survive. Naturally, when we achieve a status of ever lasting survival, when life becomes really easy, we feel depression. It is a natural response. Our lives aren't supposed to be easy, the environment we created for ourselves is not where we belong, this wasn't supposed to happen, DNA didn't account for this, so to speak, as it didn't have to. When we achieve what we have achieved as a species, life just loses its purpose, its meaning, and everything seems boring. That's depression. And that's why depression is much more prevalent in countries with higher technology levels and higher life quality when those in countries of, say, Africa, are not so depressed. There are a few things that can help you deal with depression, and they ultimately involve making you live more like the humans from before these easy times. More physical exercise, paleo diet, go outside more. There are chemicals that cause it, but it's a natural effect of our lifestyle incompatible with our programming. The only way humanity can evade depression is by freeing consciousness from DNA, transferring it into some kind of robot without DNA or something like that, or just taking very effective anti-depressants.
