/sci/ - Science & Math

Women are responsible for keeping the human race alive. Their biological role is to serve as the gatekeepers of sex so only the men with the best genes may reproduce. In our modern sexually liberated society, only a small fraction of men will be able to produce offspring.

What is your statement based on? Neither would that make any sense. You're implying Jesus was some extraterrestrial who came to earth to fuck with humanity, for what purpose? Our milky way galaxy which withholds billions of planets, and millions of the extraterrestrials whom reside in those different planets, are all aware of Jesus? And apparently all of the different extraterrestrials species share the same genetic code as us humans? Moreover perceive god the same as us humans?

is there a theoretical limit to IQ?

those are excellent points, friends. I will have to contemplate them for a few days before I get back to you

So, /sci/,

I want to learn about mathematics, physics (with an aim to learn astrophysics) and nueroscience. I've spent most of my life being a somewhat typical dropkick - didn't pay attention in school, started smoking weed at 16, smoked regularly til 21, played in a band, quite proficient musically but lack basic education shy of what I've learned on my own. I developed an interest in woowoo spiritual matters around 17 which eventually evolved into an interest in philosophy, and now this urge to understand muh self and muh universe has brought me here. I've read through some of the sticky, have Khan lined up and ready to go (going to suck it up and start from the bottom rung of the ladder with maths, work until I am competent enough to understand physics and figure direction out as I plod along).

I have two questions that would also serve for good discussion points:

1) What advice would you have for someone who's decided to take science/maths up later in life (relative to those who took to it early on in school)?

And

2) Are there any of you here who took science/maths up later in life?

As an extension to number 2 - are there any of you who took it up later in life that ended up being successful enough in it to pursue a career in your given field of interest?

>tl;dr brainlet with above-average-but-nothing-special-iq wants to take up science and maths in early twenties and wants to hear from anyone else who took up these topics later in life

>tfw gained so much knowledge this year it's time to construct yet another memory palace

The ones that increase brain plasticity, BDNF and NGF (piracetam, bacopa, lion's mane or others) can be useful for balancing out the negative cognitive effects of depression and anxiety, but they should not be used for extended periods of time and you have to remember that you are making a scientific experiment out of your own brain

Is black people to smart to conjugate verbs?

>tfw just spent the last 10 hours straight studying for my Calculus (integrals) exam tomorrow
>primed brain for maximum stimulation
>tfw reading brainlet posts on /sci/ doesn't stimulate me in the same way they used to

Any other /smart/bros here getting bored of /sci/ and 4chan in general? It doesn't provide the mental stimulation I need.

>tfw literally too smart to post on 4chan

>to intelligent too have a realisation

>tfw to intelligent too fall for the "dark matter" meme

it's a prime example of "our core theory is flawed so we make shit up to uphold it"
