/sci/ - Science & Math

>implying /sci/ is any better

>>4296532
>They're

/fit/ average IQ is close to 85, /sci/ it's about 120

SQUATZ N OATZ

This strikes me as weird, I always figured /sci/ would hate on /x/ instead of /fit/. We should be bullying the illogical and people who believe in ghosts, not reliving old feuds with the kinds of dummies who go on 4chan to talk about abs.

/fit/'s advice is actually pretty good sometimes. I mean, yeah, there may be a lot of broscience but stuff like SS and high-protein diets are fairly solid and proven.

th....thanks

>They're understanding of actual scientific knowledge

>>4296557
>/fit/'s advice
>implying it's actually their advice

To answer OP's question, muscle actually turns percursor sex hormones into testosterone. Testosterone is known to retard mental function.

>>4296558
What are you thanking me for?

>>4296571
Yeah, I dun goof'd. Their*. Are you happy?

>They're

Seriously though, OP. You should not be an asshole and look down on people.

Retarded? Well, maybe. But you do have to admire /fit/ perseverance and self-discipline in keeping themselves healthy.

As for pseudo-scientific-ness (as opposed to retardedness which is too broad and can mean anything), I had to admit I find /adv/ quite repulsive, I find the relationship 'advice' can be summed up in two words, citation needed. Add /pol/ too, but I do love it when goyim fight. /x/ is quite tame compare to them.

>Hypotheses why they believe in pseudo-science?

Simple answer, people live different lives. Different experience give different views of the world.
"People are not stupid, they believe something for a reason." Car Sagan

/sci/ has a laughable grasp of scientific knowledge.

/fit/ being worse is not a big victory.

>>4296532
>yfw you compare yourself with /sci/entists who are also /fit/izens

>>4296598
>Car Sagan

Seriously? I don't actually care. I'm just making a point. It's easy to make a mistake on an imageboard where nothing sticks around.

Also, I'm not even really that concerned with their lack of understanding of science. Just go look at their board. They are clearly some kind of retarded.

The way they speak and act is just, well laughably retarded.

Not everyone on /sci/ may be college graduates who can recite Wordsworth from memory, or explain the mechanism of an agonistic glutamate receptor, but it's obvious we're at a general level of intelligence much higher than the mongoloids on /fit/. I'd like to understand this discrepancy.

>>4296625

you work out a lot if studying/using your brain is too hard for you, that's the reason.

people who are dumb have only their bodies. that's not to say working out isn't a good thing etc.

>>4296632

That shit is near incomprehensible. Don't even try to tell me I'm retarded when you're writing shitty sentences like this.

Yeah, we should all care about your opinion.

Sorry, I misinterpreted something I read previously. More accurately I should've said that lower testosterone is linked with higher intelligence (and admittedly really low intelligence).

http://majorityrights.com/images/uploads/prepubertal_iq.pdf

I actually quite like /fit/. A couple years ago I decided to lost weight, and being unfamiliar with the gym and lifting techniques, I went to /fit/. They were always very encouraging, and gave some real tips. And they always pointed out broscience as bullshit.

Plus, /fit/'s trolls are all just wankers, unlike the snide passive-aggressive bullshit that /sci/'s trolls have.

>>4296681

If we took 4&5 to be legitimate disqualifiers, then Einstein, Hawking, & Feynmann wouldn't be allowed here.

Therefore, that shit is retarded.

>>4296699
I understood it, faggot. It just took multiple reads. I'm sorry my brain isn't used to reading incredibly shitty sentences with poor grammar and sentence structure.

Stop acting superior when you can't even form a decent fucking sentence.

>>4296706
Also, feynman was a notorious playboy.

>Reading this thread

Seriously guys? I feel like leaving and never coming back.

>Testosterone is bad and makes you dumlol thats why i dont exercise
I didn't think anyone was stupid enough to believe exercising and becoming less of an effeminate, androgynous wimp was a bad thing.

>/adv/ has no citations
Because giving relationship advice based on life experience requires a fucking citation, right you retard?

>people work out if using their brain is too hard for them
Not to live more healthy, fulfilling lives, amirit?

>spelling and grammar errors everywhere when trying to prove you're the smartest people on 4chan

You guys and your completely invalid superiority complex is fucking infuriating. Sure, /fit/ thinks they're better than everyone else too, but at least they brag about what they actually have, fit bodies, which puts them miles above you guys in my eyes.

This thread is the cancer killing /sci/, and the only things even somewhat keeping this board alive are people like MadScientist, making science threads, or the anons who actually attempt the Putnam questions.

/fit/ is a cool board. Nothing wrong with exercise and lifting weights. Most of /sci/ however is butthurt aspie nerd virgins, so shit that reminds them of their real life inadequacies is unacceptable.

Firstly, I love how /sci/ hates psychology until it they think it proves their point. Secondly, I'm well-aware of this phenomena and it's not some cosmic law. As with most things in psychology it is simply a likely probability.

Just being aware of its existence can alter its truthfulness.

Not that it matters, but I'm pretty firmly aware of where I stand as far as cognitive ability. I know who I'm better than, I know who's better than me, and I know what I am better at. I don't presume to be some uber genius who can solve any problem in a few seconds, but I also know I'm not a meat head retard.

Yeah, at this point it's so pathetic that even I have to laugh at myself.

I never had any interaction with girls outside of classrooms in high school. (Girls would only speak to me if they needed help with math or science problems.) So, I was not able to develop those skills. My freshman and sophomore years, when most of my academically-inclined peers were talking to girls and getting laid for the first time, I buried my head in my textbooks, to get my intro-level science and gen-ed classes out of the way. Still, I told myself that I would "finally meet a girl as an upperclassman." Yeah, right.

As a junior, I joined a lab, so all my free time -- nights and weekends and weekend nights -- was spent working on my project. So, that is how you graduate college as a virgin.

Really? So how many girls have you engaged in sexual activity with in the past week?

No, that's too much? I thought you just said it was easy.

Alright then, how many girls have you bounced to a new location in the last week.

None? Well you must have AT LEAST moved a set, right?

No? So you're telling me that you "know" that this works, even though you haven't actually seen it work for yourself, and someone who gets flown around the world to talk about this is telling you what you're doing has a low percentage chance of working, and if you engage in sexual intercourse because of it, it's because you "got lucky".

Look man, the point of my post was to encourage him, to point out you don't have to be super suave to go out and meet girls in college. Simply being confident and striking up a conversation with a girl is usually enough, he's smart, I'm sure he can come up with witty things to say while making small talk. Side note, the whole point of feigning interest is not to get caught, b/c the kind of girls you meet at a college bar are not likely to want to engage in stimulating conversation from his perspective. Or mine for that matter, shit.

You're taking a math exam and this guy comes up to you and slaps your ass

The interview:
>What's your name?
>Where are you from?
>What do you do?
>How many brothers or sisters do you have?
And any other bullshit like that that you can think of.

Assuming that a girl goes out 3 nights a week and gets hit on 10 times in a night (a low estimate) in a country where the drinking age is 21, by the age of 23 she will have been hit on 3120 times (and that's just the number of times she gets hit on in a club over those two years. That's not including everything else). Most of those times she will have heard the interview. It gets REALLY. FUCKING. BORING. after the first few times.

Be yourself, tell interesting stories (DON'T brag though), be clear with yourself about whether you're being direct or indirect, etc.

I'm a long time lurker of /fit/. I remember a quote that should apply to us all.
"Make civil the mind and savage the body"
Maybe not verbatim, but the meanings remains unchanged. I plan on expanding myself in more than one dimension. I'm always eager to learn about science, music, life and physical fitness. I see no reason to go around being proud of the fact that you're only good at one thing, and anyone else who does anything else is a moron. Fuck you, 4chan.

Yeah, I'm flustered.

I asked in the past week, because that's a reasonable time span. I was originally going to ask tonight, but he obviously didn't go out tonight.

But I'll go easy on him. Let's extend this to the past month.

Which is great, but I'm trying to avoid him getting crushed when he does go out. It might not affect you, but rejection can really be a bitch (especially to those who have never felt it.

>the whole point of feigning interest is not to get caughtt, b/c the kind of girls you meet at a college bar are not likely to want to engage in stimulating conversation from his perspective.
You'd think so, but I've had legit conversations about the economic state of the world, stock predictions for companies, mechanical engineering, and all sorts of other things. If you're passionate about something, talk about it. She'll feel your passion, and it'll get her attention. Hell, I've talked with a girl about google maps and ended up bouncing her back to my place. How? Because I was passionate when talking about it.

Are you saying it is better to not try at all rather than try and then fail? The only real learning comes from the latter

>>4297365
I'm that poster. Seriously, I just want to expand my mind. Fuck your hipster shit "only this science is good science". I've read several Michio Kaku books on string theory. I'm currently reading books by Stephen Hawking. I'm just curious. Damn it, now I just wish people knew each other and not the facade we (for what ever reason) create on 4chan.
Why am I getting so butthurt right now?

But anyway, continue being jealous of me, my 10 years of musical training, my 10/10 aesthetics and my eagerness to make neckbears jelly.

Captcha: asumme thought

>>4297375

I'm not being pessimistic, I'm trying to arm him with knowledge before he goes out. Why bother going down the wrong path and being discouraged when you can start out on the right path and get there quicker?

Also, the quote you're thinking of is by Michael Jordan (I believe it was for a Nike commercial): I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.

Why not be both smart and fit? The routine I follow takes me 90 minutes in the gym 3 times a week, tops, and often less than that. Almost anyone can spare that amount of time, and you'll look and feel a lot better, too.

You completely missed what I was saying.

Right now he's falling out of an airplane. He can either land on some cushions at the base of Mount Everest, or he can land in the Mariana Trench and then try to climb up Mount Everest.

Also, the best advice that I can give you is that sex is nothing special. It is HIGHLY overrated (same can be said about threesomes)

You're not losing anything.
You're not giving her anything.
You're gaining sexual experience.
