This was actually one of the most complex, yet elegant experiments I've ever learned about.

Schizo contrarian morons peddling the lastest conspiracy of the month dribble while posing as "anti establishment experts" are the biggest threat (and embarrassment) to scientific progress (think FAEKSPAEC, antivacx etc). Too bad your snowflake identity politics means you'll fall for these idiots while working against actual science just to stroke your ego.

A major problem in the past was constructing a classical, continuum description of the world. The approach was widely successful, resulting in theories like elasticity, electromagnetism, fluid mechanics, etc. that are still used today. However, ultimately it was shown that classical approaches cannot be the most fundamental description of the world, due to the discovery of quantum mechanics.

From a modern perspective, the focus is no longer on whether there is a unifying description of everything (string theory is acknowledged to be a possible consistent framework, but it does not determine a particular model that describes the interactions in our world). Rather, the emphasis today is on whether and how we can use theoretical tools to describe the emergence of particular systems (see More is Different by Phil Anderson).

how? i have crippling depression that is thus far lifelong due to my low iq being completely incompatible with anything i'm interested in doing

What is a species and how do they come to exist

>>10602182
if you don't already know the scientific answer to this, it's very likely you already have a faith-based belief concerning it. either way it's not an unanswered question in any respect.

If AI is a jet plane we're at the wooden bow and arrows stage.

By your statement that only someone with a "faith-based beflief" wouldn't know the answer I assume you think the answer is as simple as the word evolution. Yes, it's evolution but more specifically it's speciation, which is still actively studied by scientists all over the world. There are commonly used species concepts but they have obvious flaws and none are universal. Thus our understanding of what makes a species is also not 100% certain.

there are hr departments and job titles dedicated to hiring minorities. Many people will attempt to sue you if you deny a brown person a job in an all white company even if it's by accident that you all happen to be all white.

You should go into the working world more.

Semantics. There are no species in nature, only populations with different degrees of similarity.

>>10604209
>populations
>not individuals

>>10604209
"There are no species in nature" is itself a debatable claim and yes it can be semantic debates sometimes. But some definitions like the BSC have led to actually research programs and insinuate some legitimacy to species being a natural category.

>prediction of protein folding and DNA folding

To that end, this might be interesting: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/265231v2

Basically predicts protein structure from sequence in ms time after weeks-months of training the machine
