Of course, I can provide information and guidance on degree choice and career progression in scientific or technical fields. Here are some key points to consider:

Degree Choices:

Bachelor's Degree: Your undergraduate degree is the foundation of your scientific or technical career. When choosing a degree, consider your interests and long-term career goals. Common options include:
Bachelor of Science (B.S.): Ideal for many scientific and technical careers.
Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng. or B.S. in Engineering): For engineering fields.
Bachelor of Arts (B.A.): Some fields, like computer science, offer B.A. degrees.

Specialization: Be specific about your field of interest. Whether it's biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, engineering, or any other area, focus on what excites you the most.

Internships and Research: Seek internships, co-op programs, or research opportunities during your undergraduate years to gain practical experience.

Career Progression:

Advanced Degrees: Depending on your career goals, you may need a graduate degree:
Master's Degree (M.S., M.Eng.): Can lead to more specialized roles or management positions.
Doctorate (Ph.D.): Typically required for research, academia, and some high-level positions.

Professional Certifications: Some fields require or strongly recommend certifications. For example, in information technology, certifications like CompTIA, Cisco, or CISSP can be valuable.

Networking: Build a professional network by attending conferences, joining relevant organizations, and connecting with peers and mentors in your field.

Continuing Education: Stay updated with the latest developments in your field through workshops, seminars, online courses, and professional development opportunities.

Job Experience: Gain practical experience in your field, which is often more valuable than degrees or certifications.

philosophy is /his/ and the only reason /sci/ has philosophy posters is because philosophy anons come here and need to choose between Nietsche and Heidegger /his/ versus mathematical logic Wittgenstein/Russell/Bool/ZFC type threads that legitimately belong on /sci/. obviously there is a conundrum here depending on your approach to philosophy.

for religion threads, that’s already been banned on /sci/ for ages, but /x/ is the thread for “supernatural” so that is the default board for them.

The sticky should contain vital information about how to identify NPCs on the board. Specifically, those who do not have experiences, qualia, or souls should be immediately labeled as less than human deterministic automata. I am a Human Being; I can make completely irrational decisions like responding to or acknowledging mods on 4chan. I can visualize anything mentally. I have free will. This is because I am a Human Being with a mind separate and distinct from my body.

My mind is not a physical process. My mind is not neurons. My mind is not some "state." My mind is not covered by any physicalist manifest of the world; my mind is a separate nonphysical entity that resides in the mental plane. How this connection between the mental and physical planes (which we refer to as sentience) happens is unknown. We do know that there exist two disjoint realities that together make up our identities as Human Beings.

If this is not self-evident to you or anyone on this board, you are not alive. You are a machine. You are less than human and probably less than many creatures. Here's some food for thought: if you're not sentient, not alive, and not having experiences, then why should we treat you as though you can feel pain? As if you could suffer in any way, mentally, emotionally, physically, or spiritually? My take is that NPCs and other deterministic automata are incapable of feeling pain in the same way that a tree does not hurt when chopped down or an internal combustion engine is not writhing in pain with every firing in a cylinder.

This needs to be known across all of >>>/sci/.

i think you constitute the epitome of an NPC at this point since your post—due to its utter vacuity—could easily have been written by ChatGPT or Seychelles anon.

you are literally trying to argue in favor of a separate “plane” of existence outside the physical universe. full stop

this is not only completely nonscientific but it also goes against almost every single strain of western philosophical thought since the beginning of modern era and even since the Christian era. this is New Age bullshit that was invented by 1970s aging hippies and it is literally embarrassing that anyone would believe in weed+LSD-addled bullshit like this

You have not addressed my argument or my counter-rebuttal. You instead resort to ad hominem attacks, red herrings, non sequiturs, appeals to tradition, appeals to authority, and Texas sharpshooter arguments. Your deterministic programming yields these results; you are unable to think for yourself because there is no "you." It would be insane to personify an NPC the same way it would be insane to personify a brick wall.

Because you are unable to comprehend my statement (the existence of the mind which resides in the mental plane), I conclude that you are nothing more than a pile of skin. You are not alive, you are not Human, and you are less than Human.

from hitomic reasoning real numbers cannot exist in a hitomi field because they're impossible to construct inside of a hitomic field
The easiest way to demonstrate it is the the hitomic law of reduction: h + 1 = h (the inductionless property)
Also this doesn't contradict real fields or Archimedean fields either since Hitomi's number is not a real number. Which further alludes to the fact that you can't construct real numbers in a hitomi field.
>inb4 hitomi analysis isn't real because I just can't accept this made up number that I can't comprehend because I'm a hylic

Think about it like this, there is something really cool in a box but you can't ever open it. Actually that's a pretty common fact mathematicians can even prove to be the case. I can tell you're not really into rigorous studies. Physicist I assume? Wait don't tell me you're an engineer. Ah a classic case of lost engineer. Yeah sometimes "smart cookies" walk into the wrong rooms and think they fit in. It's alright pal, the engineering room is back that way.
I'm sorry but it's just a fact of nature of that you'll never get it. You're a mentally impaired animal. Like a puppy born without a leg, you're just gonna struggle around the big dogs.

I am not referring to cases of people simply being dumb. I don't care about people just being dumb, or different perspectives, or misunderstanding a bait post about statistics and probability. There's tons of trolling narcissists, political posts merely reworded to superficially skirt a narrow letter-of-law interpretation of the rules, and just outright /x/ posting.

You've had tons of people request you enforce the actual rules over the years. You've had a lot of people, and good contributors, leave the site over your not doing so. If you don't give a shit to police the place step down and let someone up who actually does want to do so.

I wonder how long they'll let the anti-science people shit all over the science board. Past few years has been atrocious. Right now posting average seems to be trending the lowest on 4stats record. Heck, if you gave a shit you could take a sampling average of random threads and probably show a distribution of anti-science to science posts continue to skew toward anti-science.

Probably whoever refuses to actually run it will sit on his throne like a necromancer corpse king jealously gripping the reins right up until 4chan itself goes under. Or they close the board. You see that a lot and it's one of the factors in how shit gets ruined. Some jackass in charge of "his baby" won't pull his head out of his ass because he's "right" in his opinions including after the place completely closes.

It just fucking sucks the kind of egoism that ruins a place like this. Fucking board has been intolerable for the past few years but heaven forbid whatever jackass has his head up his ass at the top ever admit he's wrong and step down or start doing his fucking job. That goes for whoever counts as "the top" assuming, for sake of good faith, that maybe what few jannies we do have are hand-tied by some further upper level jackass. Whatever the case the point is the jackass responsible needs to fuck off.

Basic math is biased? Either there are "racially exclusive" SNPs strong enough in effect or of such high quantity enough to come close to explaining more than a couple IQ points or there aren't. Far as I've ever seen there aren't. That is the honest look. Plus the most human-derived parts of the brain species wise have been the strongest conserved. I could go on but it'd be beating a dead horse. This is just banal any bachelor's of relevant population genetics or human evo bio would know.

But either way "the bell curve" just isn't relevant at all lol

I may be talking to a wall here but in case I aren't I suggest you look at this more broadly. If a racial trait is real it will persist even when we control for the environment. The cleanest data here come from studies of twins separated at birth and from adoption studies. Unfortunately the data here strongly disagrees with the case you're trying to make. You don't need to look at genes to establish that dogs and wolves differ cognitively (even though they are the same species since they can breed)

>I may be talking to a wall here but in case I aren't I suggest you look at this more broadly.
I have. The cleanest data is the population genetics data. Twin adoption/separation studies suffer from quite a lot of biases, such lack of controlling for dropout rates, highly similar socioeconomic status, etc. To the extent the reactive norm of the phenotype may change by something in an organisms relevant phenotypic "environment", whether prior to conception and such related or post-conception, for complex phenotypes we're pretty in the dark. Most research on this I think is with diseases and most diseases occur spontaneously at population level for example.
>Unfortunately the data here strongly disagrees with the case you're trying to make.
The data I'm referencing, heritability associations with the actual genetics people have and variants exclusive to within populations, absolutely trumps it. If there's a hard genetic determinism and "real" sizeable difference it must show up at population level and with very strong effects, either from large effect sizes of few alleles or a gigantic relevant difference of alleles. That is necessarily required.

But, as stated, the human species derived brain functions are the most conserved. So on two levels your examples are superseded, pop genetics and human evo bio. Even if we pretended twin studies had no issues at all, then you've got a truly massive discrepancy you've somehow got to explain... without ability to explain it with standard additive effects.

Here's the issue: If it's explicable only by alternate means, like interactive effects, or just any "non-additive" thing not passed on by the germline? That also contradicts your inference from twin studies. So it has to be additive effects, and the effect sizes/quantities just aren't there. You aren't listening. It is literally "not possible" and if by other means were possible you'd still be wrong.

Sure there are blatant bait threads and borderline on-topic threads that were clearly made with a political agenda, but 99% of threads at any given time are related to some /sci/ area. The problem is less that there are people re-posting /pol/ threads, but rather that there ends up being literally dozens of poor quality threads on politically adjacent topics.

Mods should implement a rule or at least a bolded statement in the sticky against creating threads on topics which already have a thread. Obviously in practice this would have to be flexibly applied (personally, I would heavily factor in thread quality based on somewhat objective metrics, i.e. sources cited, novelty, importance), but deleting low quality threads on stuff like vaccines when there's already 7 other threads on the subject would immensely improve the board's quality.

science is political, you're lying if you're saying it isn't. science forms the basis of policy, often its very bad science that does so. politicians are who fund science, often its very bad politicians who do so and demand bad science in return for the gibes they are providing.
why do you think spacex launched for a penny what it takes nasa a dollar to launch? its because of politics, nasa is supposedly a scientific organization, but the two topics are intrinsically intertwined because science is government funded and therefore political.
do you really think nasa spends fortunes on stuff like picrel because they think its good for their primary mission?

The reality is that mods are simply behind in the AI arms race and by default on the losing side for many reasons. The are several spambots posting here but there's no AI moderator that automatically bans them. Mods have to be paid and jannies are usually powered by cheetos and hotpockets which also cost money while schizos are permanently highly motivated to shit up the place. Furthermore even the concept of tight moderation sort of goes against the principles of the site, i'd prefer if threads were just moved to pol instead of deleted majority of the time for instance. The fact of the matter is that without an AI moderator or compromising on the principles of the site you can't win you can merely attempt to make using the site tolerable. Partially that's just the result of society changing, there's fewer places on the internet for schizos so they congregate here. Partially it's years of inaction that makes them feel home here.
I'd propose 2 radical solutions. First would be AI based thread moving, mostly to pol, x and b. Mods would train it by moving garbage to where it belongs and then the AI would do it and prevent the OP from making new threads for a while.
The second would be to instead of banning the bot or the schizos that just returns in 2 seconds, ban the "innocent" who reply to those threads. It won't help to get rid of the bots but it might train the people who participate legitimately to stop replying which ought to help. The downside of that is that it might just accelerate the downfall of the board.

>Like the philosophers, radicals, slaves, and horseshoe makers who two hundred years ago challenged the stagnant rule of monarchies, colonisers, and the Catholic church, we need new ideas, new forums for intellectual inquiry, and new political revolutions that challenge and oust old ideas and the old order.

I hope you guys realise that as fora go, 4ch is the only thing remaining that answers this call. That is the depth of the problems we face. Look at the other places like *dit, the various *exchange and the like, it is all full of the people that cause the problems in the first place. Slashdot was peak community once - until bad mods destroyed it, leaving only the idiocrats there. This site too will remain or fall with the moderations.

George Washington was a major plantation owner as well as a slave owner and a colonist, Lafayette was a French aristocrat and Royalist. He helped reestablish the monarchy in France in the era following Napoleon.

It's the usual "muh everyman exceptionalism" from people who are desperate to feel special about their mundane lives. "my imaginary idea of some cultural hero bob means I'm fighting the good fight! I'm the hero too! I'm special!" meanwhile these people overwhelmingly can't do high school math. Nevermind bother putting in the effort to even understand what they read. The notion they've got to do more than assume they understand is heresy.

You see this all of the time if someone bothers to explain something more in-depth than a high school level, such as here >>15830463. Rather than think "Well shit, maybe I don't understand this as well as I thought", you get "lol ur a brick wall" and "ur illogical". I'd say it's trolling, and it very well may be in this particular case, but you have seemingly genuine conversations like that in real life.

The only real advantage is that it has all of the borrowable books from archive.org on there which includes a lot of obscure ones that aren't on libgen. Some people prefer the UI since it includes the book cover in search results.

I don't think it's really a good idea to link either one in the sticky since the URLs of those type of sites change so often that they'll end up as dead links pretty soon - especially considering that the current sticky hasnt been updated in 10 years so it's clear the mods wouldnt care enough to fix it.

I would amend your complaint as "relentless anti-science spam" to be precise about it. The real issue isn't whether people post dumb shit, unless it does get spammy, the real issue is relentless posting of blatantly off topic and anti-science dumb shit.

More likely we'll get something done focusing on "will you please do the bare fucking minimum or let someone in charge who will?" than something more specific.

Logic puzzles might be a better alternative than mere calculation. For two reasons, (1) you can use or look up a calculator for your examples, and (2) challenging people to properly solve logic may force their brains to start using it. I know I am being extremely optimistic about (2).

But I really doubt, given how little effort is put into janitorial work, that they're going to put any effort at all into something like that. It'd be a fucking miracle.
