/sci/ - Science & Math

junior, "applied science", part of a dual degree program that will eventually get me another bs in ee (two degrees in 5 years). i've got the nice advantage of having an additional year of physics/math education that a bunch of other ees won't have (>>1917092)

and apparently there's going to be a big scholarship going around that pays for two years of this program, so there's that as well

That's because I am American.

>>1917004
no

even when they "speak" english, there is definitely still a language barrier. i got used to not asking questions because i usually had to repeat them a few times over before they understood what i was talking about. talking with american teachers was never a chore.

maybe if they were REALLY good at english a foreign teacher will be alright, maybe if they had been speaking it since they were children.

no

hey /sci/.....if i fire a gun in space, will it continually forever?

Only extremely hardy individuals would survive the eccentric orbit. Don't know about the tilted orbit.

Just take my word that my understanding is so enlightened that I can't help being right, no matter what I believe.

Sayonara!

I suddenly got violently bored of this.

Ja ne, anon-kun! Enjoy your new moral nihilism, I'll be busy basking in the light of my own true understanding of ethics which I haven't revealed, and tried not to imply.

>>967069
That is, the truth of whether God exists or not.

>>967052
It was actually referring to my emotional stability in light of the truth of the existence of God, but that went over everyone's heads.

>>967051
Hi-mi-tsu!

>>966994
Actually, you're the only one who didn't read a "that's what she said" joke into it.

>>966955
Uh, I disregarded the fact that he already specified that one x value gives "false" and another gives "true", so my bad, don't let that give you any ideas.

>>966943
Saten goes a little overboard sometimes with her ideas. I'm just not as emotionally durable as her.

>>966934
Yeah, truth1="god does exist" and truth2="god does not exist" for god=the judeo christian god.

I think you can all agree with me that Christianty, if not necessarily true, is at least somewhat more credible than, say, Bhuddism.

>>966923
You might be able to take it, but that says nothing for my own endurance.

>>966916
A simple ratio of probability of truth to probability of falsehood. Not a distribution so much as a function of probability with two potential truth values.

>>966877
>>966871
And I make no comment on how strong or weak that historical evidence is. Judge for yourself.

>>966871
To clarify: a probability as in "a probability distribution", not a probability as in "a likelihood".

>>966844
This is only one branch of my position on the subject. I won't clarify, unfortunately, because I don't want any of my anon friends to be sad ;_;

However, I'll give you a hint: I view the existence of the Judeo-Christian god as a probability given by the strength of the historical evidence we've yet found for him.

>>966787
Thou art God, anon-kun.

>>966765
>therefore the universe is god

Is that one of those Xbox 720 words? I saw Misaka-san playing that at the arcade, and some kid was calling her that.

>>966749
Dammit, I did it again.
