tl;drMarvel Fusion wants to enable nuclear fusion with lasers, protons and boron atoms. 5p6n + p = 6p6n + shitload of energy. Is this possible? A start-up called Marvel Fusion wants to make nuclear fusion easy. Take some of those recently invented high-energy lasers and create ludicrously strong EM fields, which then thrust a proton into a boron nucleus with its 5 pro-tons and 6 neutrons, creating a short living 6-6 nucleus. It rapidly decayes into 3 He nuclei with 2p and 2n plus a bucket of free energy! All this without radioactivity and Fukushima-explosions and the dangers of Pu-bombs and CO2. Also known as the HB11 process. Up to 2023 they want to build a prototype machine to prove the practicability. Up to 2028 a 100 MW pilot plant is possible. After 2030 a 1.21 jigowatts facility is in the reach. Sounds reasonable to me. /sci/ please give your estimation. https://www.marvelfusion.io/

So sci/ I am reading Road to Reality and having an Engin background I thought I could handle this book. Oh boy was I wrong, wtf are manifolds, Riemann surfaces and so on? Any books you math's nerds recommend to make head and tails with the topics found on that book?
Stfu tranny. Kys.Anyways, a book for Riemmanian manifolds?? So.... Um. First off. You’ll need to learn: linear algebra, calculus 1-3, and real analysis, and some communative algebra. Then, a good book is: “An introduction to manifold theory”- loring tu, for manifolds, and “Algebraic Geometry”- Hartshorne, for Rieman surfaces. You could also just read Spivaks 3 volumes. But, what I’m saying is clusterfucked.If you want to learn what a manifold is, learn point set topology, and use wiki. Then, if you want to know what a rieman surface is, learn Loring tu, then use Wikipedia. The other books just go in depth. But this looks pretty dense, if in fact it’s not a popsci book, from the table of contents. So, it could actually be useful to get all of the courses, the books I mentioned, before going in. It also talks finer bundles.So, for differential geometry, I told you the prerequisites: point set topology, linear algebra, maybe real analysis. It also seems to talk about algebra, so learn abstract algebra, a good book on that is Bourbaki, and I used dummit and foote for the basic algebra, but Lang looks better. So use Lang. Don’t listen to retards on this board about Lang, they’re clearly Sooners. Oh yeah. Dude you need to learn differential geometry. “Lie derivative, torsion”. So then for diff geo: spivak and loring tu are excellent. First three volumes of spivak, and the loring th “manifold theory”. Then the rest idk.
https://www.overleaf.com/read/vvtvtdsgdtfdAlso, here's a semi-comprehensive math list if you would like a math book for each subject.I just made this pdf, just for you <3.So don't judge, I also am too lazy to edit and fix it, don't judge my latex like a nigger tranny. I like all races. Hate transgenders.
>>12406649Fuck you, faggot.On the other note, thanks I will check them em out as suggested. I have been becoming more interested in mathematics lately so I will enjoy a deeper dive.>>12406681Thanks frien, I will have a look through the books.

>>12406788Then stop being a Fag. But fair that you don’t want to transition. Trangenders tend to be handicap, which is the pain of it all, in theory it’s good, but the only people who actually transition are very fucking annoying and I want to curb stomp them, they’re autistic as shit. Also stop posting your deviant art work. Go to tumblr, nvm, go to some stupid discord tranny server or some shit. I also dislike men because they are not female. Idk why you like men. I like men in theory. But their bodies are gross. Women are more soft, and perfect to plunge your penis in. They are literally made for that. Like a guys ass can be big, but it’s not a girls ass. A guys ass looks rough and the skin is more Calisy. But a girl is soft and plump and juicy and perfect. Same for lips. Really hard to get over a guy when it is obvious you’d be fucking a dude. Unless you did transgender stuff. Maybe be queer and soften skin and wear a wig or dresses. Be a twink or something. But never as good as vagina, it is soft, filled with lubricant, and warm.

Is IQ really important? Keith Raniere, "master" of NXIMV together with Allison Mack (former Smallville star, plays Chloe Sullivan). >claims to have an IQ of 240>runs a sex cult>now sentenced to 120 years in prisonkek, wtf is going on with these people
>>12405882i believe that would be the Foundation series, and they're referring to "psychohistory". good stuff. also ties into the robot stuff that I didn't read yet that I, Robot is based on I think
>>12405715I think people with high IQ who know they have high IQs and are told that they're special for their high IQs have a tendency to see themselves above otherstl;dr stop treating high IQ as a signifier of status and you'll probably see less sociopaths

>>12406706>>no preventative vitamin DHas been debunked yesterday or so. They made the connection that more people get sick in the winter, and people get less D in the winter, so it must have been the vitamin D. Complete bullshit.
>>12404835National lockdown should be on the first place, the only places were it didn't work are countries where it was decreed but the population never actually followed it because lack of resources/education.

Why do so many doctors and health experts make grim predictions in the media about how "we can never go back to normal after covid" and "social distancing and mask wearing must continue even after people are vaccinated"? Why do they predict that coronavirus will be the one disease in human history to permanently destroy in-person social relations, despite the fact that deadlier diseases like the Black Death or Spanish Flu did not result in long-term social distancing measures?
Fine with me. I hate people.
>>12405243>social distancing and mask wearing must continue even after people are vaccinatedSometimes i wonder if they're intentionally trying to get people to revolt and stop relying on institutions to tell people how to think and what to do. Or just fucking with people who will tolerate it. Social distancing is not good for health in general. I have half a mind to think kids are dirty as fuck because of instinctual measures
>>12405243why ask a question you know the answer to instead of making an actual fucking thread where you voice your opinion like someone with a spine would?
>>12405970I seriously doubt they'll do that anyway, I think once a large amount people get vaccinated they'll lift them.
>>12405554Like Ebola, and Marburg-virus and over 9000 similar blood explosion viruses? Both lethal and highly infectious.
>all the switchtardsPlease explain, step by step, why you think it's better to switch.>muh expectationExplain why it's relevant (protip: it's not).
>>12404844Kys tranny. Stfu.
>>12404844Switch. -5 vs +10 is a no brainer.Switching works because the possibilities of -10 and +5 (starting with 20 or 5 when one envelope is 10) have already been excluded. Your envelope isn't random.
>>12404844switch gets 12.5 on average
All of the answers in this thread are incorrect thus far. The envelopes have x and 2x in them. The expected value for either one is 1.5x. If you pick one at random, you have exactly the same expected value between sticking with that one and switching to the one you didn't pick.

>Something came from nothing.Or>Something was always there.Both of these answers completely fly in the face of intuition, common sense, and all observation. But one of them has to be right. Whether you try to answer them with multiverses, quantum foam, universal cycles, or God, you can always trace the origins of reality to these two opposing statements.
>>12401739A thing that thinks you retard. Read the meditations cunt.
>>12398733I'll go with the latter, since something coming from nothing implies the existence of something. Namely, a possibility. I think of "something" as an absurd spontaneous thing which floats above "nothing" but never interacts with it. Somehow the thing-in-itself evades the principle of sufficient reason
>>12398839Feels kinda nice knowing random folks can stumble upon the same decent dualities, anonymously>>12405474What's nothing? As a hint, you're allowed to break whatever rules you want when you think about that kind of thing, but you lose if you give up and say "it's none of the things" and don't exactly win if you say "it's not a thing".
is the object that lacks any rules describing it described by this rule?

I used to laugh at him as a crank retard but after learning more mathematics and set theory I realized he was right about everything. Nobody is able to refute him.
>>12401700fuck up retard
>>12402516Yeah so, in a few of his videos, Wildberger reconstructs the complex numbers as a dihedral algebra over an arbitrary field, excepting the case where the field is characteristic 2. The usual case is pretty much equivalent to the complex numbers in common use, but taking the linear algebraic tack which introduces more intuitive notation imo. Maybe the interaction of the complex numbers as the three dihedral algebras will yield some interesting results.
bumpe
>>12388138kek
>>12379480lots of love for wildberger, but what do we do? i got the youtube backup of his channel from a month ago. we need his notes. we need a text book. we need software. i really want a dump of all his whiteboard from all the videos. watching the videos is all good but having it in a textbook/slides, will definitely increase my learning speed. currently i have my personal notes til ~50 lecture in math foundations. there are 250+ lectures in the series and i want all their notes. also i desperately want to read eric dollards "versor algebra" but i don't have a way to pay them, i got only some crypto. it seems like wildbergers complex numbers might dance nicely with eric dollards ideas.also in the same ball park is pic related, want to readcheers to all students and scholars, we are at the brink of a new renaissance
Would you even know it existed?To be honest, I doubt I would.
>>12406727https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7036342/Can you explain why you simply reject this and how it doesn't prove sars-cov-2 exist?
>>12406744Sure, after you explain the isolation and purification procedure.Reading the title is not enough. You have to read rest to understand what I mean.
>>12406756Jesus Christ. You're making claims that it's never been isolated. You have never explained why.
>>12406766I did. It's somewhere in the thread.But you are the one who is taking the title of an article at face value.You should actually read it.
>>12406774Has a virus ever been isolated?
