/lit/ because it has a broader intelligence, why /sci/ seems to be mainly focused only on mathematical intelligence.

I legit have a PhD in cell biology and 95% of /sci/ is full of nothing but college-101-class shitty pop-sci, I just learned how to do derivatives and lets discuss this useless baby physics problem that was solved 300 years ago

/lit/ at least reads the books they talk about (well, half of them do), sci just pretends that discussing a college math problem is somehow important or doing science

>> No.11497979

>>11497953
This. There was a guy doing some chemistry at home a few months ago, but all the other “science” threads are either popsci or /lgbt/ fags incessantly screaming about /pol/. In all honesty this board should be renamed /math/.

/lit/ and /sci/ have both gone downhill in the past decade. The question is which deteriorated the most.

Clearly it's /lit/, easy to see just by looking at how the average poster there writes. /sci/ has a few very intelligent people and then a fuck ton of morons.

I remember back when /sci/ consisted of ascended gentleman-scholar NEETs pursuing learning independently and for its own sake. Now it's just a bunch of college and high school retards asking about which uni/field to go into and which careers pay the most. It's a complete change in mentality and type of person. /lit/ has at least maintained its basic spirit and type of poster.

I think /lit/, for a couple of reasons.
All of 4chan has poor quality posts, but /lit/ is one of the few places here that encourages and engenders longer discourse and argumentation. They have a longer post limit. /sci/ posts tend to be more vague, shorter, and inarticulate on average, even if they have some good resources.
/lit/ has a large portion of users who aren't broadly in tune with all of philosophy/literature necessarily, but know a lot about a given topic or author to the level of an expert. There's people who are really familiar with Plato, Kant, or Hemingway, and you can actually learn something from them.
/lit/, at least right now, has far more self educating users with no formal education in whatever subject. /sci/ has far more niggers who only care about uni degrees or just read popsci these days. And many /lit/ users are actually majored in mathematics.

But out of all boards directed towards some intellectual endeavor, /his/ is by far the most retarded. Far more than /lit/, /sci/, or /g/.
