Dark matter is solved when you realize galaxies are just spacetime swirling around a cosmic drain. Of course you see extra rotation and lensing when that whole region of spacetime is swirling.

do you have a single fact to back that up?

>>16386552
that actually sounds intuitive and feels right and I see it similarly.
the problem is that GRT doesnt offer that and works extremely well both on way bigger and way smaller scales.

I wonder if we are lumping several phenomena together without realizing it when it comes to dark matter.
and I wonder if there could be a counterpart to heisenberg for large dimensions and masses, a mass blur through motion.

Why doesn’t the universe exist as a place where fewer than 99% of people and animals are getting fucked over?

Lack of understanding of nuance, completely teenager/aspiepilled response. Most evils are a consequence of being given free will, without the juxtaposition between each other there would be no "good" nor "evil".
Also good and evil is a manmade concept. Retards who spin this nigger platitude of yours are dumber than the christcucks they are belittling.

This is America's way of coping with how quickly Chinese scientific research is growing, already surpassing America. We have a problem with people believing in science in general, so being concerned with academic inflation in China seems very poltical.

Basic healthy literacy (i.e. correct diet, exercise, avoiding smoking and drugs as well as having a technique for mental resilience) is easily achievable by anyone who has completed school.
The problem is implementing those principles. The hours in residency fucking suck so it becomes a battle to not compromise form or pick up a crutch. Of course, such battles are faced by almost everyone.

Yeah tons of stuff, although in most cases the formalism and models have not been taken very far, so to speak, unless you're talking about more computational/ML/data science approaches to biology.

You have differential equations and dynamical system theory - mainly in ecology and evolutionary biology. E.g. Logistic map/Logistic DE, the Lotka-Volterra Equations, Kolmogorov Population models.

Graph theory - in the analysis of phylogenetics, and in the study of ecological communities and biological networks.

Boolean algebra - comes up a lot in bioinformatics (although I have no idea why or in what capacity).

Combinatorics - also comes up in bioinformatics.

Game theory - again, often in ecology and evolutionary biology. Game theory is really interesting in the it really help you understand the tension between cooperation and competition, which are deeply important to evolutionary theory in biology, and even general philosophical question about individuality, altruism, and the evolutionary roots of human morality and ethics. It's really interesting too from a historical perspective, because biologists have historically discounted cooperation altogether, instead viewing evolution as being entirely driven by competition, and all cooperation being a result of self-interest. The first person to take cooperation really seriously was probably Peter Kropotkin, the famous Russian anarcho-communist writer from the early 1900s. He had an interest in biology, but his main interest was socialist politics, which then motivated his desire to defend the notion of cooperation. Over the decades, biologist have gradually come to take cooperation more seriously, although there is still a lot of debate and skepticism about how important it really is. Conventional biologists still seem biased against the significance of cooperation and related ideas like multilevel selection, but fields like mathematical biology, game theory, & network science take it more seriously.

Brain.fm says they can increase your mental focusing power with their super sciency music.

I have terrible concentration. Should I throw my money at these people or pirate from them or just ignore them?

>Your most productive

>Brain.fm’s focus music is made to help you work better, by blending into the background so you can focus distraction-free... all while stimulating the brain with gentle rhythmic pulses in the music that support sustained attention.
>Other music is made to grab your attention, making it hard to think and work, even if you don’t realize it. Brain.fm’s functional music is designed from the bottom up to affect your brain and optimize your performance.
>Try it yourself

>Real science with

For studying? IDK. For working it used to work for me as the music drowned the intruding thoughts and could put me in any mood i wanted (depending on the music chosen).
Music kind of brainwashes you, you hear a few nasheeds and you start sympathizing with jihadists, then you listen to rap and think nIgga nigga is the coolest shit then classical music and you wipe your tears to Maestro

I got a one year subscription on Black Fridays because it was something like $5, which wasn't much to waste if it turned out to be nothing. If you want some ambient background music, it's good for that. The warbling noise in the background that they say improves focus was more of a distraction. I didn't renew.

Human digestive system is about 4L of internal volume. That'd equate to about 3 grams of methane gas.

Not enough to account for all of it, but enough to show that it's probably within the error bars of how other biological processes following death could change the apparent mass of the body.

Thoughts on Einstein-Cartan relativity? In my opinion Riemannian relativity is outdated, scientists are chuds for refusing to use this model because "the maths are too difficult". Being difficult to calculate doesn't make the model wrong

the difference with regular relativity is in extremely dense environments like the center of a star or a black hole or the big bang. whenever there's a huge concentration of spin, torsion appears. also, apparently, there aren't singularities in this model
>>
as long as only significant deviations can occur at singularities or extremely high mass concentration and no explanations of other phenomena are involved, it is difficult to argue what one wants to achieve with it.
science doenst forget older approaches, maybe some day this will lead the way.

Based off the hypothesis of dark matter, we made testable predictions such as gravitational lensing on distant galaxies which all turned out to be correct.

Hello /sci/ im curious. Can this actually happen in the real world? An asteroid that just orbits our planet for 2 months? This seems like something out of a video game but i dont know you tell me if its possible.
>>
>>16384116
>Can this actually happen in the real world?
As the article mentions, it has happened in the past. And this new one is clearly not gravitationally bound as it will escape.
>>
>Yet despite this 57-day close flyby of our planet, the asteroid will be hard to spot as it's just 33 feet (10 meters) wide.
Most media reports leave this part out and claim you're going to see a second smaller Moon in the sky.
