Yeah, I see people bring up this "[prestigious job title X] are predominantly [insert political ideology here]" point like it's some kind of flex, but if they think the average surgeon is deeply invested in normie average-people culture war nonsense that's ridiculous. Like some guy that hunts squirrels in his free time thinks he's smarter by association because he votes for the same guy as the surgeons. Like bro, it's just for the money lmao

I go to a top university and am torn between choosing electrical engineering or computer science, so I've opted for computer engineeirng. how do i stay ahead of the competition?

i’m currently about to finish my bachelor of science, with a major in pure mathematics, and i’m beginning to realise that i’m probably not smart enough to do a phd in math
how difficult would it be to switch over to getting a phd in computer science, with the eventual hope of getting into a tenure position?
everyone makes fun of cs grads here but it seems like an easier way to get into academia, or at least an easy way to get a high paying comfy industry job

Is it possible to get a Masters in Chemical engineering after getting a BS in chemistry? My uni did not offer any engineering courses and I dont want to spend a gorillion years on a PhD

>>12804801
CE here. Just get above a 3.0 and do some internships and you'll be fine. If you want to do grad school try to do some research for one of your professors. Oh and don't be a smelly slob or a autistic freak. That's all it takes. Welcome to the middle class.

Adding onto the part about radioactive elements, the nonexistence of a perfect RTG isotope is arbitrary.
A perfect RTG isotope has a half life of 10-100 years, emits negligible penetrating radiation, and can be affordably produced in kilogram quantities.

No element with all three of these properties exists, simply due to bad luck with the physics of our universe.
Pu-238 and Gd-148 are the closest. Pu-238 is imperfect because it has signficant penetrating radiation, and Gd-148 is unusable because it can't be produced in significant quantities.

>>12804561
Either everything is arbitrary or nothing is. There's no inbetween.

Because most fuckers don't wear it I bet, in countries with actual lockdown and people actually complying, it's done them well, obviously. All those retard protests don't do you well, americunts.

>You're right to recognize the principle of "garbage in, garbage out", and right to subsequently take heed of your input.
Sort of, if you physically fucking poison yourself. But otherwise, the massive internal computation is not so malleable to the kilobytes of data it receives from the outside world.

>>12804884
I disagree entirely. You drastically overestimate the extent to which your personhood is intrinsic.

>>12804903
You drastically underestimate it. It is on the order of a trillion gigabytes. It's actually a little embarrassing how big brains are as computers, one brain is like the sum total of all the artificial computers on Earth. The intrinsic computation absolutely dwarfs the inputs coming in from the outside world.

>>12804920
>measuring computation in gigabytes
I don't think a meaningful distinction between "intrinsic computation" and "input" can be made. All of your mind's computation ultimately works on sensory information.
If you perceive precisely the same image (think head and eye restraints) for a few minutes, then the image disappears from view (this is a part of why your eyes constantly shift about, even when "staring" at something). The same principle applies ad reductio: take away all sensory input, and nothing can be experienced.

> The details of the hardware is largely irrelevant, so long as the (stochastic) algorithm is the same (more or less).

Wrong but on the right path. What if I told you there exists a way for a Octopuss to rule the world, merely by having a shape that is highly compatible with reality. Aka lookup wavelet.

>>12804345
The only legitimate excuses are 1. taxonomy's under revision and we don't have a definition of subspecies set in stone yet and 2. real life biology has blurry boundaries.
Working definition of subspecies requires geographical isolation and morphological/biological differences which is true considering only the Dutch and pygmies, but the world also has Italians in it which are not isolated or different enough from either the Dutch or pygmies to be considered a separate subspecies from either. So Italians are either both subspecies at once or there's a line half way through Italy with identical Italians right next to each other but they're the Dutch-italian subspecies on one side and Pygmy-italian on the other.

>>12804345
Biology is not a hard science, the concepts are no meant to be taken literally. Its like when you call a gorilla a monkey and someone goes "its actually an ape" and you go "whatever".

>>12804878
Even if that were true, it wouldn't mean white aren't creators/architects, it would just mean we have a competitor with fewer scruples and a worse track record.

>>12804891
Perhaps. Nonetheless, I've not personally seen evidence of any white who exists and did not display the behavior I described in the OP. This makes me wonder if the whites were ever capable of creation, or if they inherited all that they were and used to be, from something else.

>>12804275
I just want to draw attention to this post here:

Say what you want about whether I'm right. After my thread was deleted, Google immediately started giving me 5 layers of slow fade captchas compared to the usual one or two. These events coincided precisely. Tells me 4chan and Google are connected in some more direct manner.

>>12804898
I doubt whites have done that (unless you're referring to Atlanteans or Neanderthals or something), but the modern day Synagogue of Satan might have. Anyone heard from the Khazars lately?

Structure it in such a way so that even a completely uneducated retard could understand the beginning segments of each chapter. Then slowly increase the level of difficulty while including references to direct applications of the mathematics. Include an appendix that goes over basic concepts that can easily be forgotten (logic definitions, trig shit, common integrals and derivatives, etc.)

Wrong board?

This question doesn't even make sense. You need to get better at formulating your thoughts. Are 9 cards blank, and 1 says win? Or is 1 card blank, 1 says win, 8 says lose? I don't even know what you're trying to say here. Is there replacement? If I pick a card and it's not the win, do I put it back in and draw again?

See what I'm getting at? Your question is ill-posed, which is why nobody is answering it. Here's what I'll assume
>Deck of 10 cards
>9 are blank, 1 says win
>Draw two cards, no replacement
>1. What's probability to draw W?
>2. If first card is blank, what's probability 2nd is W?
1. P(draw W) = 1 - P(draw 2 blanks).
P(draw 2 blanks) = 9C2 / 10C2 = 4/5
Equivalently, you can write P(draw W) = 9C1 * 1C1 / 10C2 =1/5.
2. P(draw W | drew blank) = 1C1 / 9C1 = 1/9

>>12804262
Oh yeah I'm bad sorry.
But yes 9 blanks 1 win.

>>12804262
there is no redraw.
I just wonder if the fact the probabilities change after you know your first draw is a blank.
The monty hall problem has me confused now.

>>12804114
Von Neumann

>>12804443
he had to come up with a frame work of rules that could describe the world while holding the conditions in that experiment consistent. Because his work revolves around space and time, abstract concepts whose true nature is probably the predecessor to formal logic itself, he had to have an intuitive understanding of the least intuitive thing out there.

Von Newman followed basic logic to its natural conclusion. Impressive but not mind blowing. Many did it before him that just did not have access to electricity to be able to build a real computer.

Neumann because had his office near Einstein, and would blast music disrupting Einstein's focus. Neumann was an absolute Chad.
