/sci/ - Science & Math

It's because ordinary humans can't handle the true power of science.

Nah, I still want to become a wizard.

If magic existed and wizards are able to understand how it works to use them, then what's the difference between magic and science?

How can you believe in Evocation if it's only a Thaumaturgy (a geas) ?

i had this problem thrown at me during a test in calc II, took me by surprise too.

>mfw i needed to calculate the ratio between the arclength and area of a couple of polar functions, and this came in the middle of it, thus the final answer would be entirely fucked if i couldn't do it.

I still made it though.

Let's say we live in a world where magic exists. We can control it. We complete understand how it works. It is abundant and available to everyone.

Is it still considered magic?

Lets talk about Quants.

They all seem to be math, comp sci, or physics majors...how can an Econ major make the transition?

I have no idea how to program.

How long would it take to become "very proficient" at C++ ?

A year? 2? 3?
How hard is it? I'm decent at math and logic, but I don't know programming at all.

What's stopping the universe from recreating a physical structure that gives rise to your consciousness once again, in the future?

Nothing. The time between death and your next rebirth is 0 from your point of view.

How can you believe in Evocation if it's just a Thaumaturgy (a geas?)

Anybody here major in Computer Science or know anything about it? I'll be starting college next year and will probably be taking it and just wanted some advice/knowledge.

I'm supposed to read for my exams, so naturally I do whatever I can to procrastinate. This season I debate Gravity and spheres.

I asked them what kept us to the ground if there was no gravity. Well, it turns out, the wizard does it!

I made the universe, fags... Deal with it.

You can keep calling me God if you want to

Sup /sci/

Seems like you guys argue more about the existence of God instead of talking about science.

Also, motive power is for all intents and purposes the same as the scientific definition of 'work,' right? I'm reading some of Sadi Carnot's stuff, and he describes motive power as weight lifted through a height.
