What is the statistical chance of getting any kind of major or even minor disease from touching anything in public. I literally cant go outside on public transit, restaurants etc. because I refuse to touch handles knobs, doors, seats etc. due to the high influx of crackheads in my city. Its a serious problem in my life.
>>16894873It's exceedingly rare to get something from contact alone. You need to touch a contaminated surface and then touch something like your mouth or your eyes while the pathogen is still viable on your hands.So like, just wash your hands.>>16894883I love how you just jump straight to the butcher dicking his product down. Like that's the most obvious explanation.>>16894968It's not bullshit. There are some diseases that will really fuck you up, some that will fuck you up if you're older or have a weakened immune system- these need to be avoided. Sickness also has economic impacts that would be beneficial to mitigate as well. Fortunately we have technology that will give you immunity to some of these horrible diseases.That said, you're constantly being exposed to pathogens and your body will often build immunity without you getting ill. In this regard, it helps to not live a sheltered life.
>>16895144>So like, just wash your hands.what if i touch my jacket before washing my hands, then go home, is the virus dead or whatever by then, thanks for answering
>>16895150this desu
>>16895150>is the virus deadviruses are never alive to begin with
>>16894949The NPC interpretation of "germs" (and yours) is automatically=bacteria. Bacteria cause a microscopic number of diseases in the developed world compared to viruses. You can't "slowly expose yourself to viruses" and improve your outcome against those viruses in any measurable way.
>Newton>Maxwell>Einsteinare there any other scientists who were great as these 3? and who was the greatest of them all? I can really see the argument for all 3. Newton because he essentially invents physics and didnt have a previous framework. formulating the classical laws of motions so elegantly with the very limited research he could do is insanely impressive. Maxwell for being the second great unifier and paving the way for Einstein, QM and the modern world in general. Einstein is probably the most creative of the three coming up with truly non-intuitive solutions to modern problems. Obviously theres many other greats but I dont think anyone else is in this tier.
Dirac goat
>>16895535They stand upon the shoulders of Euclid
Maxwell isn't top 3, all he has his name too is a single theory. Albeit a very important one. Also Faraday did most of the work for him.Gauss, Bohr, Dirac easily rate higher than him.
Einstein and Newton are easily the top 2, no debate, though you can put either one of them in the top spot and Id say its justified. For me its pretty much dead even. Maxwell is definitely a tier below, he revolutionized only one area of physics after most of the leg work was already done, where as Newton and Einstein were entire paradigm shifts on how we view reality. for me its:>1a: Newton>1b: Einstein>3: Galileo>4: Dirac>5: Maxwell>6: Shrodinger>7: Faraday>8: Bohr>9: Tesla>10: Heisenberg>HMs: Feynman, Planck, Keplerbut really after the top 2 youre splitting hairs trying to rank them

>>16895845glyphosate, aflatoxins, phytates, others I don't know
>>16895845gluten
>>16895440Simple straightforward answer is that carbs spike cortisol and blood sugarProtein and fat does notWhy? Who knows but it's probably just because we evolved eating meat (because we needed to for good brains) not a bunch of plants (no give good brains) So you keep spiking your cortisol and blood sugar all the time and it screws you up over a long periodAnd of course most people couldn't even name the macro-nutrients let alone know how they break down in the food they're eating.
>If we assume that the world has no beginning in time, then up to every given moment an eternity has elapsed, and there has passed away in that world an infinite series of successive states of things. Now the infinity of a series consists in the fact that it can never be completed through successive synthesis. It thus follows that it is impossible for an infinite world-series to have passed away, and that a beginning of the world is therefore a necessary condition of the world's existence.
>>16892998Who is this guy and why is he quoting Zeno but retardedly?
>>16893821it has nothing to with zeno you brown vermin
>>16892998Kant's quote is one of the paradoxes he presented as evidence for his transcendental aesthetic. He also presented the opposite argument whereas if time (or space) has boundaries, what is beyond those boundaries? His solution was transcendental idealism. Just as the mind overlays categories of perception to shape our experience of the world, time and space are what he called "forms of the intuition", what our mind uses to make sense of and categorize reality so that the chaos of pure sensation has meaning. His presenting reality as we know it to be dependent entirely on the observer was his greatest contribution to philosophy and a death blow to the empiricism that reigned at the time.

>>16892998Doesn't this mean that time is a loop? Every possible event has already happened, therefore said events must happen again some time in the future if the universe continues existing forever.

What is the purpose of the Neutrino? It travels at the sped of light, but there are claims it has mass which cannot be true if it travels at c. Or, is the rest mass so small it can actually travel at c? Is it just excess energy and not actually a particle?
>>16895250Our best understanding is that neutrinos have a very very tiny but nonzero mass, and that they "travel at c" simply because we have no detector sensitive enough to pick up on the difference.
>>16895250The neutrino masses as so small that they 'effectively' travel at the speed of light (but NOT at c). The difference is so tiny that a neutrino coming from another galaxy millions of light-years away would only be delayed compared to a photon by a few seconds, if that.
>>16895263>"travel at c">>16895323>'effectively' travel at the speed of lightIf time slows as velocity approaches c, from the nuetrino's perspective how does it have time to interact with anything since it essentially is emitted and travels across the universe instantly?

Where does color originate from /sci/?If the elements, and atoms themselves have distinct color spectrum, where does color originate from?Do atoms manufacture color or does color manufacture atoms?
Black and white do not carry enough information
We need a color force carrier in three information dimensions, not 2 dimensions 3 Dimensional RGB Chad Vs. BW 2D your waifu a shit
Technically, we are not seeing the atoms colors, electrons or the nucleus, but the photons being exchanged from the electron shell cloud thingy. The ratio of the nucleus to an electron is incredibly large, we have no measure or metric of the ratio between a photon and en electron for scale. But the photons are the force carriers of the RGB three dimensional color spectrum, and they must be extremely small.Perhaps fundamental. The question must be proposed as this.Do we transcribe natures black and white into color in the mind, or do we read the existing RGB spectrum that exists? Which development has evolved?
>>16894385Something about this feels very 80s.
>>16894440Black certainly does. White is a bit trickier.

Segragation increasing in US schools.In the past 20 years, despite the US becoming more diverse, schools are becoming increasingly segregated. Students are increasingly going to schools with students of their own race. White students have the least exposure to students of other races. Schools with lots of black students are becoming increasingly more black over time. The authors blame the expansion of school choice policieshttps://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/00420859251329310Can government policy solve this?
>>16895796>>outbreeding depressionWhat detrimental effects are produced by "outbreeding depression in humans" besides the mixed-race offspring having to share the planet with disingenuous racists (like You)?
>>16895814>What detrimental effects are produced by "outbreeding depression in humans"Difficulty finding organ donors is the most easy one to educate a woke performance hypocrite like yourself. But there's actually a long list of recorded detriments and it's not hard to understand why that would be the case.Just look at the gene for sickle cell. In the subsaharan populations where it confers protection against malaria, the population reached the perfect proportion to maximize single allele protection while minimizing double allele disability.Now take those people into a place where there is no malaria and have them spread it where it is purely detrimental... Actually happening in France.That's a single, well understood example of how over the course of countless generations populations have selected out genes that don't function within the gene pool. You know what happens when you try to mix a chihuahua with a great dane, right? Why would humans be magically different?
