Move this thread to /his/, mods. Until we get a proper schizo board for religion.

>>12794998
what are you talking about we already have /x/

I never see any threads like this, even with all the /x/ schizos around, I wonder why.

>>12795052
They hate unhinged Christians there too.

>>12794944
>>>/his/

Wrong board, monkuck

>>12794944
Based.
I guess I kind of live the modern day monk life, basically.
I stay inside most of the day, studying math and completing problems. I also take breaks to pray and exercise but usually not much more happens than that.
Not to say that I don't do other things. Sometimes I paint and draw, play piano, cook, garden, and read (mostly the bible and scientific/philosophical books) and unfortunately I use the internet a lot too.
The only problem I have is that I'm a virgin (I guess most monks are volcel but I don't actually want to be a monk, kek.)
I don't mean to say that I'm an incel or anything, and I'm not so ugly (girls seem to be fairly attracted to me, though the ones I know like to call me strange haha), I just can't commit to anyone yet.
I don't want to have premarital sex but I'm afraid that there aren't many traditional Christian women around me who are willing to commit to a lifelong monogamous relationship even if I had the heart to marry right now.
I do want kids but I feel like I have a "mission" to make mathematical contributions. This is my great "test" I guess. I hope I can at least get a good girl by the end of all this, lol.
It's really funny though, my friends are pretty rich but they still manage to say things like "I don't have time for religion". I suppose life's easier that way--I hope their afterlife is as easy too.

Man, the Earth is a spinning ball. Please, just attach your cell phone to some Helium balloons tied with a strong thread let it go up as high as it will go, while filming, then pull the balloons back in. The distance OUT you can see is the square root of the product of the height and the radius of the Earth. You can see the curvature with your own camera.

Didn't we JUST have this conversation?

>>12795027
we did, OP is a faggot

>>12794920
I was in a similar situation last semester. finished with a B, and decided not to mask my grade since it was a core class. I wouldn’t mask anything that’s a B or above.

>>12794936

That's why you compare people who drink coffee to people who don't and compare people who consume different amounts of coffee to establish a link between coffee consumption and risk of cancer.

>>12794959
That's not what I asked for. I asked for a study linking coffee consumption to an increased risk of cancer. All that study says regarding coffee is that canned coffee contains acrylamide:
>In addition to potato- and cereal-based food, coffee beverages acquired from coffee vending machines also contain AA concentration which varies from 7.7 to 40.0µg/L (15).

>>12794666
No, but eating charred foods does.

Everything either causes or cures cancer depending on the current year.

no except if it's cooked or has nitrites (specially the latest)

>Why is no one talking about reinforcement learning?
I'd like to, did some research even, but on this board as soon as you have a good thread, Starbucks scientists raid it with their stupidity.

>>12794616
>AGI is coming far sooner than most think.
AGI is far far away. A human brain has the computational power of roughly every artificial computer on earth combined.

>>12794616
This is where the people working on AGI hang out:
https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi
Do you really think that these schizos will give us AGI anytime soon?

>>12794717
Deepmind or OpenAI will

I took a course about reinforcement learning (and dynamic programming) and as a CSlet I found the math surprisingly accessible. The course was not very up-to-date I think so if you know some more recent work, do post it.

>>12794890

Yes.

Yes.
>do they actually offer more in the end,
Yes.

>>12794555
>>12794555
Well of course you'd say that if you're one of them... But seriously, can you give any insights on, say, how it was different for you than the other regular PhDs in your uni?

>>12794570
Higher expectations, mostly. This is because it's a more selective candidate pool. Ultimately a PhD is about research and so is the MSCA. If you want to distill it down to that, then there's no difference.

>>12794329
Well I can see how all the fish become the same. Seems obvious. All their brains are being corralled the same by the same drug.

Or you could say 'coraled' HAHAHAHA. But seriously.

Isn't that the point of these drugs?

What the fuck is the Space Force doing?

Cixing Liu's three body problem has an interesting approach. The Universe is a dark forest where if anyone peeps up, *someone* will launch a kinetic kill strike against their star, so when advanced aliens try to invade, humans establish a deterrence strategy based on doing precisely that.

>>12794320
Post-posadist intergalactic nuclear posadism.
On a political left-right scale it would be ultra whacky.

Man cannot create an artificial intelligence so complex that it can defeat him.

Please enjoy some grade a autism from a latter century and why you are currently worrying and expending valuable brain power about that which you have no control over aka distant events in the future also too far away aka worrying about an invasion from the andromeda galaxy:

stop being a faggot. the heat death will not end the universe, the big rip will happen way before that. the "heat death" will have the remains of the universe, when all atomic and sub atomic bonds and even spacetime itself have been torn apart by the rip when the ever increasing expansion of the universe will overcome all forces that hold it together. there wont be anything left to experience heat death if spacetime itself ceases to exist.

So radio telescopes can combine their data with software to simulate a planet sized telescope. Could you theoretically do something similar with visible light or does it not matter because the wavelengths are too short?

>>12794255
The easiest way to do it is by blasting the telescope to the outer system and using the sun as a focus.

>>12794330
That is only useful for one target, and you have to know that target precisely before the mission launches. The travel time would be many decades. An interferometer is a more attractive option, and is seriously being considered.

>>12794312
>So radio telescopes can combine their data with software to simulate a planet sized telescope. Could you theoretically do something similar with visible light or does it not matter because the wavelengths are too short?
Not in software no. The reason you can't is because radio telescopes can measure both the intensity and phase of the wave with an antenna, whereas visible detectors like CCDs only record intensity information. You need both to do interferometry.
Visible/infrared interferometers do exist but the light must be physically relayed to a central recombining instrument. What makes it particularly complicated is that the light must be recombined in phase, so the path lengths have to be controlled to fractions of a wavelength. The current state of the art is instruments like the VLTI and CHARA, which have maximum separations of 200 to 300 meters. Going to very long baselines will only be possible in space.

>>12794410
Forgot pic, of the VLT an it's interferometer on Cerro Paranal. One of the coolest places in the world.

>>12794229
I agree it's definitely up there, saying this as someone who's actually published in the field.
However one thing it does have going for it over hep is that it's far easier to solve a problem by thinking physically and cutting out large amounts of mathematical wankery to get to a nice answer.

Exactly my problem, if determining cost is subjective, you would hope that your backing for the subjective reasoning would not only be sound but arguably stronger than other potential options, I swear I've tried to remove bias for so long to get as objective of a perspective as I can but there really is no escaping

The cdc commissioned a lab to modify a bacteria down to different size from
its regular 15micron. It asked it to be modified to 50nano 100nano 200nano 500 nano 1micron and 5microns because it has a hunch about something. Heard somewhere they have done it down to a few atoms. You have it in front of you you can eradicate it. However there is always room for contamination.

The names are irrelevant. You can find it out.

Example a researcher is teaching his postdoctoral students bacterial branching systems at his institute. His stock group in general study is bacillus. The trunk is bacillus anthracis everything onward is a stem. Tolstoy doesn’t legalize solicitation as its legal philosophical focus is common trust and not recrimination reason we went from isolated languages to several major language groups. As long as Islam is political, there is the doubt of Aislamiento.

Otherwise it is a war agreement right?
Now how are they supposed to defend themselves from? If every nation needs a military to even be a nation. And they are teaching everything differently that’s the focus of psychology and sociology. The prime focus is solicitation because that is the conduct of extreme capitalism. Not everything is ‘enmity’.

Looks familiar...

Man, I'm kinda getting worried about Raptor. It's the essential part of Starship and they've already produced, what, fifty of the suckers? And they still haven't found a way to make them work reliably. Absolute worst case scenario, our material science literally isn't up to the task of building a fully reusable engine that powerful yet. G-d, please let based Elon fix these problems within the year, that's the only thing I ask of you.

IQ is fucking meaningless

136 here with a 37 on his MCAT (old version) and I live in my childhood home with an oxycodone addiction at the age of 31. My old college roommate had an SAT score (combined math and verbal) of 1000 and he's an engineer for Boeing.

... I'm good at video games though!

>>12797049
What was your roommate's IQ?

>>12797053
extrapolated from SAT, around 108... but that's being generous. He was really good at jumping through hoops and in the end that's the only skill you need to excel in any career these days.
