How do people tell one star constellation from the other? They all look the same to me.
>>13473241Make your own paper astrolabe and go outside at night to learn the constellations. Children can do it.If you are on the northern hemisphere, start with Stella Polaris, next take all the circumpolar stars before taking the rest. The circumpolar stars are useful as directors for the rest.I have had to navigate by the stars a few times, handy when other means fail.
>>13473241headcanon
>>13473633LOL THE GUD OLE DILDOZER
>this is supposed to be a lionWere the ancients all schizos?
>>13473241I learned the main constellations from some children's book but I would not have figured them out on my own. the stars making up a constellation do not seem to be placed more closely or meaningfully to each other than to other stars.
Detritus? Algae? Should people be swimming in it?
>>13471875That is yeast blooming as a result of natural fermentation processes, pic is what it looks like when the same process is created in a controlled environment. lmao that none of the dozens of posters in the mycology thread were able to identify that
>>13471892Strangely nothing has been heard from these swimmers ever since.
>>13471892My uncle once swam in sewage water and nothing happened, kek.
>>13472012>lmao that none of the dozens of posters in the mycology thread were able to identify that sois got told XD

What is being done to increase bee populations in north America?
>>13475592Commercial beehives are typically transient and it's not uncommon for them to rapidly spread pathogens. Only fix outside of vaxxing the bees is to make more beehives.
>>13475592genetically breeding bees
>>13476289Sure, that sounds really economical
>>13476328thousands, in the scale of a country. from the perspective of a farmer, all you have to do is to install app on your phone, and it tells you when you should spray. that's all to it. the infrastructure is paid and run by public, and it's already being built. the problems are with logistics, there is no fixed schedule, you can't lend machinery in advance, and people may be weary of putting their whole crop on risk, because some ai, but then again, conservatively, the cost of pesticides drops to 1/8th.
The commercial honey bee can go fuck itself, most should die off because without humans, they wouldn't be so dominant. It's not an efficient pollinator and drives out native pollinators. Best thing you can do is not buy honey or produce that requires heavy exploitation of bees. You don't want to increase the bee population, you want to lower it and let the native pollinators do their job by not farming monocrop style like a fucking retard from 200 years ago (monocrop is great for self-pollinators or wind-pollinators).
If a man is alive today then doesn't that mean his genetics have survived millions of years of evolutionary selective pressure and therefore have a high chance of reproducing again? Wouldn't this mean that there is no excuse that he cannot get a girlfriend?
>>13475900>>13475923So it's not an argument to say that if your ancestors were able get a girlfriend that you can too?
>>13475900>Behaviour, while 100% geneticLmao no.
>>13475950It is a rhetorical device that can help you go through the mating ritual process, assuming you have the genetic framework for it.
>>13475885whatever you gotta tell yourself kid, belive in the me that believes in you, also don't withdraw.
>>13475885no, if your family has lived in the same nation for a long time you're surrounded with similar people. People also had far more kids back in the day, one couple had 20 kids, lets say 10 could have died, 5 could have had kids, half of those kids survive, and on it goes. And that's not even taking culture, environment, time and society into account.
How does one properly isolate a virus?And by extension how does one prove it is causative of a disease?
>>13475055But this happens every day, all the time, there for you cant prof a shit with this method.
>>13475055I'm just looking for an answer since I want to better understand the topic and the debate around it, I'm not attempting to deny anything.
>>13475054There is also the exposure of cultures, washed with healthy blood method, and then count the destroyed cells.
>>13475038A big. BIG microscope, and some clever organic, chemical or mechanical, dissolving methods.
So what would it mean if a virus could not be isolated?
Hi.I need an opinion on my song. It is about finding a starting point to go forward with oneself, and about making a life philosophy out of science. Just to clarify: Heisenberg's uncertainty principle - precludes: predicting the future and the existence of a so-called Laplece's demonTriangulation - an approach in science to use different research methods to see a certain problem from different angles to maximize objectivityWill post the rest in a next post.
>>13470456Do it. I'm not that musically talented anyway, I just want to spread the word. >>13470479Lol, I knew someone is gonna say that. Maybe I used wrong words - I am emphasizing using science as an adjusting tool for philosophy. >>13470494dancing and salivating dog is in another song. UK royal family in another too. It's called "House of cool mates".
One last bump.
>>13472567Some people might say that the song is gay, but I at least really like how you are trying to make a song out of scientific topics. The gay songs about love that everyone is doing all the time are so goddamn tiresome. I'd love to make my own music and artistic crap about science and technology someday in the future so props for trying to do that OP.
>>13468632 "Science" art is always such cringe

Is there any sci way how to fix ADHD sperg outs without meds?I browse the web like 8+ hours daily and only work for like 20 minutes - however the deadline keeps coming closer and closer
>>13475629ADHD isn't just about trouble focusing. It's also hyperfocusing, trouble thinking with loud sounds, unable to stay still, struggle with social queues, and a bunch of other stuff.
I don’t really think so at this point. I’m 28 and have been on meds for years at a time and off of them for years at a time, and every time regardless of any other health/habits the times not on meds have been a total loss.
>>13474729>Also, consider the possibility that you have chosen a field of study that you're not interested in.Unless there is a way to make a living playing video games, and only certain video games you find enjoyable, that isn't it. It is going to be problem with whatever you try to pursue. Most people are able to do what they have to do without issue while I'm procrastinating my whole life away.>>13475155>Is it even worth pursuing?If you truly have ADHD then yes. Adderall was a game changer and it made me become like a normie in the sense that I was able to do what I had to do instead of procrastinating.
>>13475629>a symptom of an undisciplined mind?I've had this since I was a baby. I was falling out of my crib because I couldn't stay trapped in there and my parents would find me wedged between the wall and the crib. In my toddler photos I was flailing around because I couldn't even sit still for a few seconds to have a photo. As a kid I was bouncing off the walls with restless energy. It was a problem in school as I never did homework and would be disruptive in class laughing and joking with my peers. I remember one time I got in trouble for talking during nap time and had to sit in a chair which I then urinated myself because I was scared to ask the teacher to go to the bathroom. So why can other kids sit still and remain quiet while I was rambunctious.Then I took Adderall for the first time in adulthood. It was a night and day difference. My restless mind immediately became calm and I was able to sit in a chair calmly without my mind jumping all over the place and wanting to get up and move around. I remember thinking "Holy shit, this is what it feels like to be normal."

How can i prove that it is a pseudoscience

Why do organs end up a certain size? For example, two individuals of the same height and weight can have livers that vary widely in size.It probably has to do with different types of growth hormone secretion during developing years and eventually tissues stop responding to these signals, but through what mechanism does the body know when to stop growing certain organs? Why doesn't the liver, for example, not just grow forever? What mechanism tells the body "yep, this organ is fully developed, make it stop growing"?I've not found an answer to this question, is the answer actually known?
>>13468016Nope. That's something they keep trying to tell guys who want a bigger dick to discourage them. A 30 year old man wants a bigger dick and it's impossible, but if a 30 year old woman bodybuilder takes steroids, her clit will blow-up to the size of a gumball. But the idea that testosterone could make a grown man's dick bigger the same way gets ridiculed because making men feel more masculine is verboten. All you get for free on the internet is an endless stream of lies
>>13468016>Isn't penis growth tied to pubertyYes, but the gain and subsequent loss of the penis' "growth function" is due the epigenome changing.When the penis is growing during puberty the genes necessary for growth to take place or turned on. They are then turned off by epigenetic alterations such as methylations at genes' start sequence (such a methylation makes a gene effectively inactive).Make the epigenome of the cells of the penis look like it did during puberty and you'll regain the ability to grow. Modifying the cells epigenome in this manner has already been done in mice and when you make induced pluripotent stem cells from adult cells.
>>13462412I dont fully understand why too but I know one signalling pathway that is responsible:Hippo Pathway.
>>13462412>I've not found an answer to this question, is the answer actually known?it's through ion channels that differentiation is regulated. development is temporal too, certain hormones will be released at certain points post fertilization
>>13476101> only ion channelnigga read a book
A Saudi gives you a dump truck of money and asks you to design a city for his country, and make it comfortable to walk around in the street no matter the sun. What do you do?This isn't a thread about muh global warming, it's a thread about the urban heat island effect.I would build rows of towers running east-west, and have shiny aluminumized fabric running between the towers to shade the streets and lowrise buildings below.I would have narrow, car-free streets so the towers can be only a few feet taller than the tops of the low rises, and use light rail to move people. Parking garages would be located outside the city instead of inside them, and people would rent stalls for their cars and use them when traveling outside the city.All buildings would be statutorily limited to being low-rises, and have aluminumized awnings covering their rooves. For the air conditioners on the rooves, they will vent their heat collected from inside the low rise into a looping channel that is itself cooled by a large industrial ammonia air conditioner, and then vent that heat up a dedicated draft tower which doubles as a vent for any ammonia leaks.The advantages of this are that you don't have to paint asphalt roads with high albedo treatments that cost $20k per lane-mile, you don't have to have "green rooves" you don't have to mandate cladding for buildings, you don't have to spend billions on freeway networks, and much more.
>>13469119Our ancestors literally worked it out thousands of years ago: light colors, narrow streets, overhead coverings and vegetation. The problem with modern cities like Dubai is wide black streets between skyscrapers.

Is interstellar space travel even possible? The closest exo planet that is potentially habitable is 4 light years away which would take us hundreds of years to reach and considering how many calculations and preparations has to be done in order to travel between just earth and moon because space is mostly unpredictable especially between celestial bodies would humanity even be able to get outside of the solar system?
>>13474175>with a craft accelerating at 1GNow you just need to invent a rocket that can carry enough fuel to accelerate at 1G for 20 years straight without refuelling
>>1347486040% is probably a good target as thats when ye olde time dilation gets goingAt 99% of C flying through the false vaccum of space would start to act like moving through an atmosphere or fluid, meaning you need consrant acceleration to keep the same speed much less the near infinite quantities of energy needed to accelerate up to 99% in the first place
>>13474887Oh yeah, because we totally will make these interstellar trips with rockets burning fuel. It's almost like suggesting that there is not enough wheat in the world for a horse to travel to proxima centauri.
>>13463468shut up you dickhead
>>13462403Within Earth's population there are many rational, empathetic, unbiased and highly talented people. They are however a vanishingly small minority compared to the rest of the population, who are fundamentally arrogant, stupid, narrow minded and selfish. It is imperative then to prevent these locusts exploring space since any living planets they encounter they will take for own, destroying the indigenous life in the process and squandering its resources before moving on to repeat their pillage across the entire galaxy.Anyone who has observed human behavior knows this true.

“As you get older and approach retirement age, some body else picks up where you left off,” von Braun continued. “There were great men long before the first big rockets were built. And we are just building on their legacy. We want to make sure that this legacy can now be passed on to the next generation, the people who will really pick the fruits of the trees we have planted. I think the silliest part of the decay of the public interest in space is that…we planted this orchard, and we nourished it and fertilized it and watered it and gave it all our tender loving care. And now, the time comes when the fruits can be picked – and they don’t want to play the fruit pickers! That is where I think the young generation can make the greatest contribution – pick the fruits.”I miss him bros

>>13470833lex is much dumber than people thinkHe is great at navigating academia because his genius father helped him.You see this constellation of genius father < dumb son (who live in his shadow) quite often. I think its because the father is so genius that he just gives up on finding a woman that can keep up. So he ends up marrying a dumb, hot housewife who is a good mother. But is left with stupid kids that he resents.Its comical, I know at least 3 families in which thats true. I feel bad for the sons because they always keep trying to transcend their fathers but theyre just a little cockroach compared to him

Has anyone read any other studies with results on any testing to determine if the spike proteins from the mRNA vaccines can misfold and develop into prions?https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7988450/>SARS-CoV-2 Spike S1 protein receptor binding domain (SARS-CoV-2 S1 RBD) binds to heparin and heparin binding proteins. Moreover, heparin binding accelerates the aggregation of the pathological amyloid proteins present in the brainIt would seem from my own intuition that given the nature of the mRNA vaccine mechanism misfolding spike proteins are not out of the question. Though study above seems to indicate that properly folded spikes behave in much the same way regardless.
>>13467840would infection with SARS-COV2 (not vaccination) propose same threat?
quercetin, bromelain, serropeptase surely therapeutic phlebotomy would fix this shit as well
>>13470253based. Never taking the goy juice.
>>13474830the question all the people who post like OP conveniently ignoreor they post some cope about "muh I am not going to get infected because it does not exist xD"the prion theory falls apart if you barely even look at it
>>13467840your first error is:>sees pajeet-paper>doesnt close tab and actually takes it seriouslysecondly, its totally IN SILICO. just computer simulations. A computer simulation done in india. thrid, just because something can bind amyloid proteins theoretically, doesnt mean it will induce prion diseasefourth, you write that spike proteins itself folds weirdly and becomes the prions which those pajeets didnt even write. They said spike might by some crap simulation bind amyloids (amyloid being the misfolded protein in alzeihmers)So this paper is very bad. This is why you dont read indian/chinese papers. nobody does
