If you superglue all four wheels of a car to tarmac, what will happen?a) the car cant drive away b) the tyres break c) the car drives away as if nothing
>>13780488A very very thin layer of rubber from the tyres will be left behind.
Is the world really accelerating? Do you think singularity is real? Will we reach it during our lifetime?
>>13779829It's hardly a matter of whether it's possible or not. It's a matter of humanity's inherent inability to care for anything not within their lifetimes. We will eventually kill ourselves. Whether or not we get fusion energy and artificial intelligence first is almost non-trivial, because it seems like we will never have peace, not in our time and maybe not any time. People murder, rape, and steal. People who are retarded brainlets, people who are prodigious, they all fall prey to greed, hatred, and sin. It's It's, and I really hate to be so pessimistic, because the technological advances we've made in just the last decade or two have really changed everything for good. I truly hope its for the best, but the realist in me looks around and all I see is selfishness, hunger for power, bringing fire to nature,, and people rolling dice on other's lives.
this chart is fucking unreadable>hmm yes let's label all the lines with near indistinguishable shades of green and yellow and then list them in no particular order
>>13780474This desu>>13776222Yes, new technologies make it easier to do research which enable new technologies. The plummeting price of DNA sequencing has allowed more biology research to be done in the past decade than every prior decade combined.
>>13779886What we need1. Prosperity forever2. Unlimited resources and space3. All diseases curable4. Erasure of race and culture5. Purpose and a sense of achievement
>>13776222What would the technology for OP's pic up to date or at least 2021 instead of 2016 be?
Why do you care about IQ? All that matters are your achievements. Who cares if you have the "fastest car" if you lose every race; even worse, if you dont even race at all.
>>13777758higher iq is why Modern Europeans exist. Thank God for the Plague. Just imagine if India had the plague and in 200 years they're all Brahmins. That was Europe.

>>13777763Like having a fast car is correlated with winning car races but you won't win if you dont race. At the end you celebrate winning, not how good the car is.
>>13780431Bubonic plague was a recurrent pandemic for millenia across all Eurasia. There have been dozens of recorded plague epidemics in India.That particular breakout in Europe was common, disease was everywhere in a world without bleach nor refrigeration nor sewers. Everybody eat shit every day, flies and rats covered in shit from the through ran over all the food in the markets. All water was yellow and had parasites.
>>13777758I would suck the shit right out of Margot's ass
Can you confirm a belief without challenging it?
>>13777711>>13777776That is every evolutionary biologist's way of thinking. Ants and bees can communicate in fucking dance, have laws and personalities, etc? That's just how they evolved, something in nature just causes them to be that way. Evolution is at least as equally untestable as theism. Every experimental outcome and every observation can be coped out no matter which way it goes.
>hits you without hitting youRead Nick Land
>>13780279i think carbon dating relies on an differential equation. the question then becomes where the bones came from? Aliens ? who done it? it's like asking 2 + 2

If the outcome is disgusting shouldn't you simply react based on that?
>>13777693When did you take this picture of me?

Any good source where i can learn everything BY MYSELF, and i mean EVERY SINGLE thing about transformers? My current prof makes me want to rope myself
>>13779897I'm in my 3rd year of engineering and i never had a textbook
>>13779864>Any good source where i can learn everything BY MYSELF, and i mean EVERY SINGLE thing about transformers?I think faradays law is pretty comprehensive. it doesn't cover parasitic capacitance or heat dissipation or frequency limits tho
>>13779864https://www.transformer-assn.org/So in the real world, this is all governed by the NEC, DOE and IEEE. All serious applications are already made. Everything is standard stock waiting in inventory. There's only one way to build a relay station.

I'm starting a general, and if you want to contact me my email is : TheWormed@protonmail.comI am currently working on creating a worm human hybrid supersoldier, by replacing blood with worm Erythrocruorin the oxygen carrying capacity per cc of blood triples because only 30% of a RBC's volume is hemaglobin, whereas a cell free oxygen carrier like Erythrocruorin is 100% functional material, meaning by increasing my hemacrit levels to 70% and replacing my RBC's with Erythrocruorin, my oxygen carrying capacity will have increased ~500%.the erythrocruorin will also be reconstituted and the Fe (ii) ion in the heme group replaced with a more Electronegative transition metal Cr (ii) to enhance oxygen saturation speeds so that i extract 100% of inhaled oxygen rather than 25%.here are some sources>https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/67/2/637.full.pdfa transition metal ion substitution and reconstitution protocol for heme>https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22982347/extraction method of ultra pure erythrocruorin from earth worms>https://www.mdpi.com/2079-4983/3/1/49/htmgeneral biophysical properties related to erythrocruorinthe eventual goal of this project is to enhance my athletic abilities to never before seen levels. these abilities may include but are not limited to;>Endurance enhancement>Blood loss resistance>Enhanced metabolic efficiency>carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide poisoning immunity>low oxygen atmosphere resistance

/sci/ is the only board where I feel some people are more intelligent than me.Am I a midwit?
git gud
>>13779643if you think the average /sci/ user is intelligent you are not a midwit, you are simply retarded
>>13779643if you use the term "midwit", you are one.
>>13779643/sci/ and to a lesser extent /lit/ are the only 4chan boards where if you're intelligent but not knowledgeable you can actually end up feeling out of depth. Every other board has little reason for technical language, or is non-academic and limited to a specific interest, so most people talk in layman's terms. Also, most people here are retards, there's just a half dozen or so really autistic math nerds who circle jerk over linear algebra.
>>13779643If you have to ask then yes
Why on earth do people still recommend Baby Rudin?>No motivation for anything>Casually uses random inequalities never proven in the book>Doesn't define most things rigorously (see chapter 2)It is the single worst book ever made in analysis for self learning and is barely useful as a reference.Tao 1 and 2 does literally 100% things better. Fuck this piece of shit book.
>>13780135Tao is complete fucking shit. but baby rudin is way worse. Read Abbott.
>>13780172>read this book>learning is optional
>>13780135*raises paw*>Can I get an application to the lemma please
>>13780172Fuck you, some of us have extremely high geometric ability and graphical representations make things ridiculously easy in comparison.
>>13780135>>No motivation for anythingits a math book not a novel>>Casually uses random inequalities never proven in the bookall the proofs are complete. i know you are bitching about the proof in chapter 1. its not random, it clearly satisfies the properties needed, and its actually not that hard to figure out how to get to that equation.>>Doesn't define most things rigorously (see chapter 2)example? I recently finished all problems of chapter 2 and I found everything to be well enough defined.
Why do humans live so long compared to animals?Why 20 year old cat is basically near it's deathbed, while 20 year old human is still only reaching its peak?
>>13780383Ecological niches. Cats survive better with shorter generations. Just think about it, they have brutal lives and often die before reaching 5 years of age (in the wild). What difference does it make to have long lifespans if you still die young from the harshness of life?
>>13780398So you saying its purr genetics?
>>13780409Could of googled this nigga.The average telomere length in cats is 5- to 10-fold longer than in humans, but the rate of telomere shortening is much higher both in vivo and in vitro. These observations are compatible with similar stem cell kinetics in both species.

Is studying artificial (computer) intelligence a better way to understand and explore intelligence in an abstract sense, opposed to studying neuroscience/neurology?
Artificial intelligence is the study of how human cognition can be replicated by a machine. Cognitive science is probably what you are looking for, which is the study of cognition itself (both natural and artificial)
>>13777867This doesn’t really answer the question. Yes, both areas are branches of cognitive science, but which one is worth focusing on more/first to best understand “intelligence”?
>>13777834ai is a bottom up approach while neuro is top down. i think bottom up is better as it builds from "first principles" rather than trying to figure out the mess that is biologicals brains.
>>13777834What you cannot create, you do bot understand.
>>13777834you will definitely use computer to experiment, but studying current """"""AI"""""" would harm more then help.there are a some things that we're sure intelligence requires e.g. a memory, abstraction ability etc. but not much.I believe it's probably a simple idea and some crackpot like fabrice bellard would write less than ~1000 lines of code to build a tiny AGI once we figure it out. out intelligence is too intertwined with the evolution and the earth, it's hard to figure out what's the essence of intelligence.
Why does running in a dream look like this?
>>13780359It's your mind trying to run without any 'muscle memory'. That, or some Freudian crap about lack of agency and running back towards the mother's womb.
>>13780359>>13780373Somehow when I run like this in my dreams there is always some kind of tragedy I could prevent or some huge benefits I could gain if I was running normally. When I wake up I'm super frustrated.
>>13780373It's the blanket on your legs dude.
>>13780373>That, or some Freudian crap about etc.That's why nobody sane takes Freud seriously.>>13780394Finding it hard to run in a dream is just an expression of frustration with things you consider too difficult to achieve.So you're not feeling frustrated because of the dream, that frustrations was what was causing it in the first place.

Major international media outlets are now reporting that lobsters caused covid-19. How much scientific evidence is there of this claim? Can anyone here prove that lobsters didn't cause covid-19?

Realistically, what are the odds that humans have already inadvertently spread life beyond Earth?
>>13776294There is 100% chance there is earth based life on the moon and probably some on mars as well, whether that's significant or not is up for debate and it's unlikely the life is spreading fast in mars and at all on the moon.
