How does one go about finding Modafinil in the US? Your generic sketchy drug dealer doesn't even know what it is.

>He's a good engineer and scientist

Where did you even get that impression?
He avoids any technical discussion on the any hard science subjects, and he has no scientific credentials except for a lab technician job at Los Alamos.

What's wrong with the following?

[eqn]
\left (-1 \right )^2 = 1^2

\sqrt{\Left (-1 \Right )^2} = \sqrt{1^2}

-1 = 1

I have a gigantic washing machine. Every year I wash 7.53 billion garments. On average 5 million of those garments suffer from color degradation so severe that they are ruined. But the laundry machine is so big that not all of the ingredients of the detergent touch all of the garments. Recently I've started finding one of the ingredients in cases of color degredation. So how do I determine if it's actually causing color degredation?
Or if it's just an already widespread ingredient that I'm coincidentally finding it in color degraded garments?
Because various strains of coronavirus are very common. COVID-19 is a newly isolated strain. That doesn't mean it wasn't everywhere before we learned how to isolate it. And from what we can tell it spreads like microbiological wildfire. So it's possible this thing was spread literally everywhere well in advance of us being able to isolate it and test for it. And since millions of people die world-wide of acute respiratory illnesses each year (mostly during this time of year) it's hard to say where a few hundred thousand extra cases lie. More work needs to be done. The precautions that have been taken to this point are warranted. But we should also establish a proper clinical study of COVID-19 to make sure it's not just a statistical anomaly. Because crashing the economy for a year and a half until a vaccine can be made requires us to be absolutely fucking sure about it. And since the virus seems to have a course of about 14 days it should be a fairly quick study to get done.

I work at a laundromat. And I wash 7.53 billion garments every year. 5 million of those garments are ruined by serious color degredation every year. I just randomly throw in a bunch of chemicals in every wash. Recently I've started throwing a new chemical into the mix that might cause color degredation. Would it be scientifically sound to test the ruined garments out of the regular laundry flow for the chemical after they've been ruined? That's what I've been doing and so far it seems to be present in 2-4% of ruined garments. Would it be a sound scientific conclusion based on the methodology to say that there is a 2-4% chance that this chemical will cause color degredation or is there a serious flaw on the reasoning and methodology behind that conclusion?

Do you guys log your thoughts?
If so, what benefits have you seen?
If not, why?

I've began to log my thoughts and reflect on things that I find interesting to myself. Am I a fag?

What does this chart look like for females?

if universal expansion deccelerated, then does that mean one day the night sky could suddenly light up?

Is it best to learn subjects concurrently or individually? Should I spend a single day on one subject or should I split it up?

Instead of mars, why don't we colonize the moon first? Is the atmosphere that big of a problem?

why do you love math? what is the beauty of mathematics?

will IUT have other applications in the future?

w-what?

how is that possible

Why do people say aliens can't travel to us because of the "huge" distances? It's just huge for us. They are probably immortal machines by now. A 500 year journey on some antimatter rocketship is nothing to them. I'm not saying flying saucers come here every day, I'm saying that an alien fleet will show up one day maybe in a million years and anyone who says we're isolated forever is an idiot.

how big is the universe?

This probably gets asked a lot but whatever. What course has the most inorganic chemistry? Organic just isn't as interesting desu
