Scientifically speaking, of course.

Seems like EVERYTHING that humans do causes global warming. Do we need to implement and raise carbon taxes in countries that already have them even further to fight global warming?
>>
The reasonable thing to do is to increase taxes for democrats and leftists to 100%, is all their fault after all so if they die they die. To avoid destroying the economy taxes need to be lowered to 0% for everyone else.

Simple geoengineering would be the way to go.
Since this isn’t done, it’s clear this whole charade has nothing to do with global warming.

lol no. They're incredibly paranoid. Rumor is they moved the entire company to Canada because they feared the US government would steal the tech. So no, they ain't publishing shit. They might even be planning to destroy all their work they did on bootstrapping once everything works. I think Drexler or someone else proposed doing that.

Why would they scared tho? Canada is practically an part of the US economically. Most of these guys seem American,

>> If you're let down by actually trying to do mechanosynthesis you should get out of this thread.

Don't get me wrong I think it's great anyone is working on mechanosynthesis. And glad that if it's true to seems they solved theoretical and practical problems to enable it. And maybe this Burton guy was lying at Foresight meeting, but from what heard it seems that they can't make useable machines from their research.

Female ferrets, once they're mature enough to breed, will become extremely ornery and violent if they aren't bred. If they go on long enough without being inseminated, eventually the estrogen buildup in their bodies becomes so severe that it will kill them, they become lethargic once its really bad and then die of anemia. So inability to breed is a death sentence for a female ferret. I doubt this is unique to ferrets, but I haven't studied the issue.
It seem likely, judging from their behavior, that human females go through something similar, although not severe to the point of death. Inability to breed seems to turn women into massive bitches and I get the impression that birth control pills mitigate that kind of hormonal activity.
So my theory is that if you know a girl who is a massive bitch and she isn't on bitch control of getting fucked regularly then thats probably because she wants to be inseminated, craves it desperately.
Is there any actual scientific research thats covered this topic?
I don't know much about it outside of my familiarity with ferrets and my experiences with women.

This. A lot of the hysteria about muh plastics these days has homophobic and transphobic subtext. It's often a way for people to give the impression of scientific legitimacy to their false and bigoted claims about the proportion of LGBT individuals supposedly increasing - presumably due to "woke" ideology or propaganda or something - when in reality the LGBT community is just becoming more free to publicly express themselves and their true identity.

Conservatives also have an aversion to pretty much anything new or anything that has been developed using modern science and technology, so they're naturally going to oppose things like plastic and opt for shit like paper or aluminum packaging because its sort of a more traditional or classic aesthetic. The current microplastics hysteria is just a reiteration of the atrazine conspiracy theory from 15 years ago. Pic related.

Climate pseudoscientists are no better than mystics, fortune tellers, and other superstitious nonsense. They have produced zero climate models capable of making accurate predictions. If physics had such a low success rate we wouldn't take it seriously as a field of science either.

Taking summer biochemistry and I'm the only male in the class
I got a 73 on the first exam for this biochemistry course and I don't get what I did wrong I'm so sick of getting bad grades like this. It's an accelerated 5 week course and it moves insanely fast. I felt like I knew the concepts. I studied for about 6 hours. Am I just totally fucking stupid?

What do you mean by "work?" Do you mean that it won't literally physically collapse on itself? If that's all you mean, then yeah sure, it could work if the buildings are appropriately designed/built.

>Any advice for a newbie? Stuff to watch out for during the first year?
Admins will be out of touch and full of shit no matter what school you go to, so take everything they say with a kilo of salt. This is especially true for M2 year, UFAPS is still king. Some schools like mine have tried convincing students that in-house lectures are good enough for boards, with catastrophic results. Stick to the tried and true methods.

DO NOT buy an otoscope, some schools try to hawk them on first year students. A cheap Littmann stethoscope is really all you need.

Try to hang out with some M3/M4s and get real advice on how to manage your in-house lectures and shit. Most schools usually have a repository of ebooks and other goodies that gets passed down from class to class, so ask around. The study habits you had from undergrad don't really translate well to the volume of information you'll be expected to learn, there will be an adjustment period where you feel like you're drowning but if you can avoid an heroing you'll be ok.
