/sci/ - Science & Math

Scientists talking about low hanging fruit need to realize they just aren't that tall.

i'm bad at math too. please halp.

if i accelerate from 0 to 0.1c for thirty seconds, and then immediately decelerate back to 0, what distance have I covered.

the answer i got was roughly 900 000 km. I have a feeling that's wrong.

>inb4 homework

not homework. I'm dumb help

I redid all my research and rewrote my perfect notes. What will you retards do this time?

In your opinion, what is the best profession related to science?

(1/2)
conscientiousness + high intelligence = successful
conscientiousness + average/low intelligence = successful
laziness + high intelligence = loser
laziness + low intelligence = loser

If you are hard working you will be successful in some respect as long as your intelligence isn't a handicap.

Do not forget that intelligence is extremely relative. You are a genius to a retard and vice versa.

A retard can think of something profound that an extremely intelligent person can struggle with. Such is the way of randomness.

You claiming that you are in a specific range means that you haven't taken a proper test probably. If that's the case you are most likely under or over estimating yourself. More likely under than over.

IQ is just an attempt at measuring someone's ability to take in new information and understand it. I will agree that intelligence is a factor that others depend on to a respectable degree, but IQ isn't everything in life. It's only one of many other things such as attractiveness, height, physical strength, etc. Even if it isn't completely accurate it's the best procedural way of determining someone's level of intelligence and I think most people would agree with that. If you want to be a metacontrarion go for it.

They were treated like mad people, because they are fucking mad.
You need to look up the stories on Australian cannibalism, murder and violence. They're all fucking mad.

Lads, what the fuck do I do?

I wish I was dead

How do I be a great mathematician if I'm bad at math? I want to be the Faraday of math. How do I do it

Why is it so hard to program? I had to drop out of CS into Math because I struggle so hard with programming. Even years into my math degree and potentially a math phd I can't program.

help.
I'm starting 1st Year Engineering in 3 days and I can't remember any maths from year 12 (I had a gap year).

What the fuck is wrong with me?

>get a big maths textbook
>going through the exercises
>feel like a massive brainlet whenever I don't immediately see how to do the question
>feel really frustrated and as if this shows that I will never do anything worthwhile
>the answer always comes down to some part of the notes that I didn't pay enough attention to
>no motivation

This is sickening. It's even worse when I already finished unviersity and know that 18 year olds go through the same material.

How is Planck length significant? I may be wrong but it seems like dogmatism for the sake of dogmatism.

Will going into computational mathematics make me a code monkey? I don't want to be whipped into being a beta CS fag, but I do want to go into some programming while maintaining mathematical integrity. Is this set of courses good? Would ya'll recommend it?
