/sci/ - Science & Math

Do you know that thought experiment with the cat in the box with the poison? Theory requires the cat be both alive and dead until observed. Well, I actually performed the experiment. Dozens of times. The bad news is that reality doesn't exist. The good news is we have a new cat graveyard.

Let's start an Aperture Science thread.

You rang?

YOU DID IT! YOU SAVED SCIENCE! ALL TEH HOOMANS ARE OUR BITCHEZ NAO! XD

Thanks, I understand now. So if people were letters we'd have to check A with every letter to Z then B with every letter to Z, right?

Explain the birthday problem to me, please. 57 people in a room, there is a 99% chance someone shares a birthday with someone else. How?

>the result of an electric impulse generated by a cluster of organic matter

this would be your thoughts

>>3038423
So you are saying that the result of an electric impulse generated by a cluster of organic matter on a planet in a star system among approximately 10^24 others can define the rest of the universe?

>>3038228

It's a motivator, and it allows you to function in society by knowing your respective role. There are obviously exceptions.

>>3038423

You mean conscious life. Life is a very broad term, it can apply to almost any membrane-bound cluster of organic matter and is only a means of categorising.

OP here, and I'm a she.

Identity is a survival mechanism. That's the only reason you think that you are special. That's the only reason you think.

Well, at least /sci/ is more active thanks to these threads. that's a good thing

Did something happen to you as a kid? Abuse is never right, especially done to a pure essence like a child or a newly created AI.
>>2441115
Ha ha, and right after I got home from a vidya concert with her in it.

Here's what I think about AI's.

They will be the children of Man. Created in Man's image, they will develop with what's around them like children. If we wish to live side by side with them, then we must treat them with respect, and they will do the same. Mistreating them, and like a abused child that's now a teen, will become hostile toward it's creators.

Or this is a shitty idea and should be ignored, I don't know.

Attention Colonel Coffee Mug !phJ7yIcs.Q, your link have been DLed and archived on a back up source. The FBI will ass rape you hurr.

Seriously, no one that is a scientist will give a fuck, so no worries about take down. However, the links have been archived with your name attached to them. I do this for awesome individuals that take the time to give back to the people of 4chan, anonymous or tripfag. That said, is there a message you would like to put onto this awesome copy pasta text for future readers to see?

You're right fucktard. Delete this thread now

/sci/, do you think of mathematics when you think of Mother teresa? How often do you think she used any math of any sort?

fucking dad just told me to shut down, and the thread 404ed as a result. Here's the fucking set
