COVID 19-vaccines are effective at protecting people from getting seriously ill, being hospitalized, and dying. Vaccination remains the safest strategy for avoiding hospitalizations, long-term health outcomes, and death.
cool, still not taking it
>>15177315>effective at protecting people from getting seriously ill, being hospitalized, and dying.It's been almost 3 years and none of those happened to me, therefore taking any shots would just be an unnecessary risk
>>15177315The more people killed off by COVID, the better.

My body my choice.
Let's solve the perimeter of the ellipse.The ellipse, divided by major and semi-major axis is nothing but a constant curve that is repeated four times.The curve is always tangent at the axes and the curve is always constant.Therefore, if you simply solve for the length of the curve between the major and semi-major axis (in terms of pi) and multiply by four, you get the perimeter of the ellipse.
>>15169328Looks nice. We could almost call it a day but whatabout other eccentricities of the ellipse?
>>15174666Nice values of the eccentricity will be when it gives you singular moduli.The example I gave works because [math]k_3=\sin\frac\pi{12}=\frac14(\sqrt6-\sqrt2[/math] is the third singular modulus and I just so happen to remember that expression.Here is another relatively easy one: the perimeter of the ellipse can also be calculated exactly in terms of values of the gamma function when the eccentricity is [math]3-2\sqrt2[/math] and then they'll start to get a bit harder with examples like [math]\sqrt{\frac12-\sqrt{\sqrt5-2}}[\math]
>>15174820>>15174666That is interesting...Now, just stick eccentricity in the formula andthat's it, right? What if the formula can be writtenefficiently, or is it that it is so unique that it's allit could be?
>>15177082I don't know what you are asking.Also, generally >just stick eccentricity in the formula and that's itis easier said than done because when you are asking when the perimeter of the ellipse can be calculated exactly in simpler terms, we are really asking first about a modular equation. Singular moduli are the moduli [math]k_n[/math] for which [math]\frac{K(k_n')}{K(k_n)}=\sqrt{n}[/math] and these equations (modular equations) are generally hard to solve. This is equivalent to a cumbersome problem in algebraic number theory (because finding singular moduli just means that you want the square of the ratio of two theta functions to be an algebraic number).If you want an exact expression for the singular moduli, this would usually first involve you calculating something called class invariants. The simplest expression for the eccentricities/moduli we want then turns out to be that [math]\frac{1}{(2k_nk_n')^2}=G_n^{24}[/math]where [math]G_n[/math] is one of these class invariants I'm talking about. One of the ideas with the definition of the class invariants is that they have many nice transformation properties when you make all sorts of substitutions for [math]n[/math] As another funny example, it turns out that [math]G_5=\sqrt[4]\varphi[/math] where [math]\varphi[/math] denotes the golden ratio.
>>15177338also, here primes denote the complementary modulus (just in case)also, it's worth commenting on this:>when the perimeter of the ellipse can be calculated exactly in simpler termsyou don't necessarily even need the gamma function either. I don't know exactly what [math]E(k_{14})[/math] is off the top of my head, and [math]k_{14}[/math] will certainly be rather nontrivial, but the interesting thing is that I think [math]K(k_{14})[/math] is expressible entirely in terms of radicals. That doesn't mean that [math]E(k_{14})[/math] will be, too, but it does give some hope that you may have extra special values of the eccentricity of an ellipse for which its perimeter is expressible in terms of radicals only.Or maybe someone's proved this never happens. Or maybe nobody's given an example yet.
Assuming MUH is correct,and tge existence of large cardinals is correct too,what would the models of mahlo cardinals *look* like?
Or some superhuge cardinals...
>>15177327>would the models of mahlo cardinals *look* like?What does that even mean?
>>15177335In MUH,mathematical existence=physical existence.im asking what mahlo cardinal would look like in a physical form?
>>15177341But, as far as I understand, MUH just says our physical reality is some mathematical construction. Even if that construction is small enough to be describable entirely within the Grothendieck universe specified by some large cardinal K , that doesn't mean K itself naturally maps to a specific object in our physical universe. Anything with that cardinality is a "model" for K.

Isn't this shit impossible? Or at least going to bring about a lot of issues that would make Mars uninhabitable?>The idea, he said, is to create two tiny pulsing "suns" over the regions. "They're really above the planet, they're not on the planet," Musk said at an event for Solar City in New York City's Times Square this morning. Every few moments, he wants to send a large fusion bomb over the poles, to create small blinking suns. "A lot of people don't appreciate that our Sun is a large fusion explosion," he said.>"A lot of people don't appreciate that our Sun is a large fusion explosion.">The tiny suns would then warm up the planet and turn any frozen carbon dioxide into gas. CO2 is a potent greenhouse gas, meaning it absorbs and traps heat. The more of the gas that's in the atmosphere, the warmer the surface of Mars becomes. When asked how difficult this would be to pull off, Musk replied, "Yeah, absolutely, no problem." The comment was met with nervous laughter by the crowd.>Musk has been very vocal about his goal to colonize Mars. At the SolarCity event, Musk also noted that SpaceX is currently working on plans for their Mars transit vehicle. In January, Musk said he would reveal the company's plans for reaching the Red Planet later this year.

>drink more waterIs this some /med/ inside joke? The other time when I discussed headaches on /sci/ I got adviced to drink less water because headaches are usually caused by too high blood pressure in the brain’s blood vessels and it can be reduced if body has less water

Whats the mathemsthic that cg uses to crrectly draw out precise colors shapes of a scene or object?I m looking for the analog application of it so to "line out" the colors correctly against a hypothethical light source in an image, according to each materials of the subjects.
Are you talking about ray-tracing? Please clarify what you're after.
>>15177119Perhaps but more analog in execution. Something like picrel, the lines that define the shapes of the colors produced by the light source against the objects and the reflected around.

is there any other way to perceive the 4th dimension from our world than a tesseract?
>>15174694...I'm pretty sure it's actually 2 cubes of the same size rotating in place. On the picture here I drew purple lines on one cube and green lines on the other. Then there's yellow lines connecting them like the yellow lines in the picture on the right. So the purple cube closer to the camera is kind of distorted looking and is rotating on the spot and the green cube in the back is rotating in the opposite direction

intelligence testis the cube facing up one down?
>>15172313This.
The tesseract is only the 4D shape in the Euclidean topology. Our 4D universe has Lorentzian topology and the shape is called a hypercone. It is very simple compared to a tesseract. In one time dimension and three space dimensions (Lorentzian), the spatial part of the universe is a scoop of ice cream on an ice cream cone and the scoop gets bigger as the cone gets taller. Starting from the big bang at the cone's apex, the spatial part of the universe gets bigger as time goes by, which is the increasing height of the ice cream cone. The tesseract refers to four spacelike dimensions (Euclidean). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercone

But this result didn’t make sense. Much to our surprise, the distance estimate we made using the dispersion of the FRB was 30 billion light years from Earth, a distance 10 times larger than the actual 3 billion light years to the galaxy.

I usually get top grades, but every now and then my performance is average due to lack of sleep, stress, or other factors, and guess what? Those mediocre grades are going to be attatched to my name for as long as I am alive with nothing I can do about it. How am I supposed to cope with this shit?

>>15174757>nothing I can do about itworrying doesn't change thisjust try to improve your grades ASAP, make good sleep a top priority
>>15174757Unless you’re going for grad school or top tier jobs (<10%). Grades don’t matter. It’s the connections and experience (i.e. clubs, internships, projects). From the people that I met during my uni career, the ones that focused ONLY on grades didn’t really amount to much. The only ones focusing only on grades were those trying to get into med or law school because you can’t really network your way into those without stellar stats…I would not worry about your gpa desu.
>>15174920Higher than yours. Guaranteed.
>>15174784Sure they do, but by an amount much smaller than most people expect. Some of my HS peers got into much better unis then I did despite my better grades simply because of side stuff like extracurriculars. By and large, and especially if you're going to a local school and not planning on ivy (which itself is immensely wanked in how different it is from a normal school), passing is what's most important.
