According to the jews if you stop wasting seed (wanking) and you give 20% of your gross income to organizations lile this rabbi's, you are promised to get rich in this life

https://youtu.be/nV8-Wc0b6PM?t=277
https://youtu.be/2S5mkE7lXOY?t=8512

If a study was done that tracked 1000 people over 40 years and 100% of those people who did give 20% of their gross income to the same institution all became rich, wouldn't that prove Orthodox Judaism is right?

What are riches in this world useful for? Everyone dies. Even the richest man turns to dust.
>For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16
The riches in heaven are the only riches worth striving for. Read the New Testament ^~^

as a brainlet I enjoy watching videos that tackle scientific subjects in an easy to understand way. sadly, I don't know of any channels that do this. I used to watch vsauce but he only makes edgy tiktaks now. any of the big channels are just there to waste everyone's time. numberphile is a retard podcast and hitting my head against a wall would result in less loss of brain function. I tried watching this navierstokes thing from black science man but he just kept talking over his guest (which seemed enthusiastic to talk about this equation).
recommend me some channels that dive into scientific subjects and talk about them while being CONCISE please. jokes and stuff are fine but don't go overboard
I also enjoy fireship to keep up with tech things, I don't watch every video but that's in line with what I want

My problem with so many youtube and PBS type "explainers" is that they never go deep enough. It's like they think someone will take their job if they show too much behind the curtain. Guys, pretend you're doing an interdisciplinary seminar or something, Assume your audience has seen a shitload of other science before. Luckily there are indeed plenty of youtubers who go deeper and even show the math.

Physics explained and Curt Jaimungal then just search through the names of physicists for more interviewed on other channels.

Its more of a slow blurn. It takes time, the galaxy has been known about for a long time. But only recently has it been found to have very little heavy elements.
It's not really the first stars, as redshift 6 is quite late, when the universe was about a billion years old. The very first stars are too early and too faint for telescopes like JWST to find individually. So astronomers instead are looking for galaxies which started forming stars later, these tiny dwarf galaxies. And they can only be detected with the gravitational lensing of a galaxy cluster.

What about pseudo-immortality? That is, not eternal but much longer than few decades, and not a perfect copy but almost (as I'm still "the same" even I forgot several things I knew and knew how to do with my body), and not perfectly embodied or conscious but well enough?

Technically you just need the brain, the other parts just send it signals, and you can replicate the signals yourself.

The brain needs to constantly maintain electrical balance or else it self destructs. To maintain this balance it needs a constant supply of ATP which is self genetates using Oxygen that it gets from the blood. The number one cause of death is issues with the body's blood system (cardiovascular system) because if anything cuts off the blood supply the electrical imbalance will fry the brain in a few minutes.

Why do theoretical physicists take this crap seriously? "space has 11 dimension" "no space has 1 dimension that solves our problems"

you can easily start from a false premise and prove a true a false conclusion, mathematically. So why are people so quick to ignore the VERY OBVIOUS FACT that space has 3 dimensions???

I need to write a comprehensive paper as part of the admissions process for a full scholarship. I'm currently on stage 3 of 4 of said process, having successfully progressed through the previous two.

The problem I have is that quite a lot of the papers I need to access are behind paywalls. I've already checked SciHub/SciDB/SciNet and Machine Library, together they have maybe 40% coverage.

Where else can I look?

>>17080720
Not true. The magnetic field is only part of it. You need an atmosphere to actually stop the particles, a magnetic field just deflect them. Venus for example has a very weak magnetic field but no radiation problem on its surface.
And it's not magic, a planetary magnetosphere can make life harder. The radiation environment around Jupiter is far worse that near the Earth, because it captures energetic particles and traps them. The surfaces of its inner moons like Io and Europa are probably completely sterile because of the very high radiation dose. Life there is only likely under the ice.

This works, it's coming at the industrial level, and there's STILL a big gaping hole in the theory that justifies LENRs and adjacent observed phenomena. Does anyone want to at least try to plug it with something that is coherent with the standard model, before its application as a technology breaks the model open and tarnishes forever the reputation of physics?

How did glasses go from being invented in the 14th century just as a reading aid and staying that way for centuries until it became basically expected for a fourth of the 40+ population to wear them all day in the 20th century? And now like 90% of east Asian zoomers use them? Is myopia a social contagion like transgenderism or glass delusion, that spread after figures like Benjamin Franklin and Harold Lloyd made it fashionable and high status? Does this also explain the revulsion glassoids feel towards laser surgery and lenses, that the myopia is more like a subconscious urge to wear glasses than an actual problem with the eye?

I suppose it's because an atom has an equal chance of degrading every second, it can happen 1 second after its creation like in 1 billion years but by counting plenty we can make an average life expectancy, nothing in an atom degrades in the sense that the atom becomes fragile to the point of exploding, it just happens.
