That is precisely what I had in mind, do my specialty training over there then come back and do private practice while making bank and not getting cucked for the rest of my life wageslaving for the government in some other specialty for a fraction of the pay.

The thing must be set in motion lol, it's not a globe proof.

>Foucault’s Pendulums are often quoted as proof of a rotating Earth but upon closer investigation prove the opposite. To begin with, Foucault’s pendulums do not uniformly swing in any one direction.

Sometimes they rotate clockwise and sometimes counter-clockwise, sometimes they fail to rotate and sometimes they rotate far too much.

The behavior of the pendulum actually depends on 1) the initial force beginning its swing and, 2) the ball-and-socket joint used which most-readily facilitates circular motion over any other.

The supposed rotation of the Earth is completely inconsequential and irrelevant to the pendulum’s swing. If the alleged constant rotation of the Earth affected pendulums in any way, then there should be no need to manually start pendulums in motion.

If the Earth’s diurnal rotation caused the 360 degree uniform diurnal rotation of pendulums, then there should not exist a stationary pendulum anywhere on Earth!


I will not waste more time on this.

Thank you.

Math is not reality.

HONK HONK!

>What is the evolutionary purpose??
Instead of asking what the evolutionary purpose of a maladaptive behavior like that is, you should ask whether the benefit of having a neuromuscular system incapable of producing occasionally bad results would outweigh the massive cost that level of ironclad perfection would require.
If you needed a car to get to your new job starting next week and could either get a shitty car for $10,000 or a perfect car for $1,000,000,000,000 you would necessarily pick the shitty car because you don't have the GDP of a large developed nation to spend on transportation to work.
Evolution is only going to work with what can actually emerge every step of the way. Perfection is not a reasonable expectation for a naturally emergent structure or process. Evolution isn't a conscious entity wanting to do a good job. It's the result of whatever works well enough to last long enough to reproduce.

Ah yes that looks fine

I find it cool that your IQ is displayed next to your post now but I don't know why mods did it

Whoa Whoa Whoa- Thank you-
I won't study this all overnight, But I'll save this list, and progress alongside it- I feel like, at this point (dry 24 y.o.) It'll take me my whole life to know everything- But I'll try- Damn, I wish my parents had exposed me sooner to math, though...

Trips of truth- this is a good guideline for research, though


hopefully I don't fall flat on my face
