/sci/ is garbage, you've got that right. the board is filled with either

1) spill-over from /pol/ with the iq autism pop-sci

2) spill-over from /b/ with the rest of the pop-sci threads

3) /x/ tier b8

and the 5% left is bears some semblance of a properly structured thread discussing science. i haven't lurked here for 2 years now, and i remember this board very differently. used to be slow as shit ye, but all threads were math threads with the occasional chemistry/physics and engi meme thread here and there. I believe the downward spiral is due to:

1) influx of laymen with no actual stem degrees

2) growth of /pol/, which makes it more likely to contain this board

3) lack of actual moderation of content

I'd rather have the board be slow as fuck, than the garbage it is today. But I guess whoever moderates (if anyone) feels differently. It's a shame too cause /sci/ used to be very pleasant to lurk

I'm pretty sure he was trolling. You did what I was about to do. There are some monstrous systems of equations that get simplified greatly with this assumption. An easy reasoning for the assumption is the taylor series expansion. Ya did good.

Yes they do and the assumption takes many forms as well. Check out pic related.

/sci/ is another colony of reddit like /co/. Reddit loves Big Bang Theory and the joke on the show is engineers are stupid or subhuman. Everyone here regugitates the same old shit from that show. Don’t dare call them out on it though, they will just call you a gay engineer.

Ah yes, the analytical formula describing chaotic behaviour.

just because you can't write down a solution in terms of simple functions doesn't mean it's an ill posed problem

That's only a constant approximation of cos(x) around x=0, so it sucks.

sin(x) approximated by x is actually the quadratic approximation around x=0 so it's much better.

Come on, man. Don't be a retard. We love you and want you to succeed!

Not him but if you can get real analysis, abstract algebra, and topology and or measure theory onto your transcript, which would be about 3 or 4 upper level math courses, I don't see why not. Especially if you apply to an applied math program. I'm in grad school for pure math right now.
