>>16974190>Is Mathematica worth buyingNo.>Or is more of an "if your employer or university doesn't use it too don't bother" type of tool?This one.To be up front, I absolutely loved using Mathematica to do data analysis and make figures for research papers when I've been a student and faculty member at institutions that have it. It's a solid system with a lot of great tools and I found its syntax to be very straightforward compared to coding in Fortran, C, and if I'm being honest even Python at times... BUT, a legitimate license or subscription is obscenely expensive (last I checked, even with academic discounts it was still ~$200/yr for students, ~$2K for an individual perpetual license, and ~$20K/yr for a site license at a small college). You can get away with using a cracked copy for personal use, but WR and companies like it can and do frequently put pressure on journals to retract articles if they suspect someone of using unlicensed versions of their software to produce figures or generate results... so, yeah, Python it is.Frankly, it's baffling to me that Wolfram doesn't price their software more reasonably or is at least less anal about enforcement. Back in the day when Flash was a thing, everyone openly acknowledged that 99% of the content on sites like Newgrounds was being made with cracked versions, but Macromedia/Adobe didn't really do much about it because they recognized it was good advertising for their product and they still made a solid profit getting schools with art or game design programs to shell out for site licenses.

This paper investigates the claims of a child who remembers a past life as a WW2 soldier, the child makes multiple statements about that soldier that were later verified to be true. This constitutes scientific evidence of reincarnation, since the way in which this case was investigated follows the scientific method. https://med.virginia.edu/perceptual-studies/wp-content/uploads/sites/360/2017/04/REI42-Tucker-James-LeiningerPIIS1550830716000331.pdf

>>16979722>("airplane crash on fire!"This was said when they were 1 year and 10 months old.>then the structure of his sentences suddenly changes despite being of the same age,This was said when they were 2 and a half years old, 8 months later:"That's where my plane was shot down"and"My airplane got shot down there, daddy"Are those sentences really too advanced for a 2 and a half year old child to say? It's advanced for sure, but I don't think too advanced. The former and latter sentences were said 8 months apart, that's long enough time for the child to have started forming more advanced sentences.
>>16979403>treating the extremely vague and poorly defined concept of "consciousness"Exactly, the same brainlets saying muh consciousness cannot be material also cannot define what they mean by consciousness
>>16979762The same NPCs who mumble about definitions cannot explain why they need one. And when you rub their nose in this, instead of trying to prove you wrong they start chimping out.
>>16979756>Are those sentences really too advanced for a 2 and a half year old child to say?Yes they are, there's no way a 2 years old can say those things on his own, either he was coached or the parents are straight out lying.Remember that all of this comes out of the anecdotal account of the parents, who always had a financial interest in continuing this tale through the sale of books and interviews.Parents who have changed the narrative several times, made several mistakes in the account of the facts and directly suggested their kid that the nightmares he had came from a past life.Kids have a lot of imagination, James' imagination was kicked off by his frequent visits to the WW2 airplanes' museum, the parents did the rest by digging into war memorials and books.It's all in here, if you wish to read it.>https://journalofscientificexploration.org/index.php/jse/article/view/2361
How do these UFOs fly around? Don't UFO's suggest that a Superfluid Vacuum or BEC vacuum is real? Possible theories or a comboUse a superconducting Josephson Junction Stack of by bismuth, magnesium, zinc and maybe silicon at 4 nm to emit high field strength electromagnetic waves to separate the craft from the BEC, dropping the craft into a lower vacuum energy state, freeing the craft from relative gravity, inertia and mass. Use a metamaterial that contains the wave within the skin of the craft but essentially does the same thing. Use a coherent plasma lattice to separate the craft from the BEC like ball lighting or EVOs. All three could possibly do the same thing, and interestingly matches descriptions of different UFO crafts.

>>16979493It's inertial dampening, and therefore a reduction in effective mass. "Anti-gravity" is not real.
>>16979562This infographic is retarded. The only "knower" on this entire list is Neil McCasland. And Phillips Lab's work with LANL is for laser weapons systems, primarily phase conjugate non-linear optics. The work started at LANL before Phillips Lab was a thing. All the Project Looking Glass Retards heard "time reversal" and though "OMG FUCKING TIME TRAVEL", when in reality "Through the Looking Glass with Optical Phase Conjugation" is the name of a LANL paper from the 80's written by Dr. David M. Pepper. The AFRL at Dayton is the least glowy of the glownigger USAF facilities. Even Area-51 has probably lost out to Hill AFB/UTTR. McCasland's most interesting postings aren't at Dayton of even Kirtland I would say, but Hill AFB(because of the timing and what they were doing at KAFB) and Bolling AFB.

I've been thinking about this lately. If we look at certain sexually dimorphic traits in female humans, especially ones that are considered sexy in girls, they're also what makes meat taste good. For example, the female body has thinner skin, lower collagen density, and even a less rigid collagen bond structure. That's responsible for the soft body quality in attractive girls, and it also makes meat more tender and delicious. Women also have less muscle (therefore less tough meat) than men and a higher normal body fat percent range. Less of that fat is visceral fat which would just be gross excess fat that doesn't help the quality of the meat and more subcutaneous fat and intramuscular fat. In particular, intramuscular fat is the source of marbling, which results in juicier, more tender meat. Girls also have more fat concentrated in the breasts, thighs, and butt, which are both sexual points of interest in the female body and the main body parts that would be eaten for meat. Looking at diets, (stereotypes and reality) girls eat more plants (fruits and veggies), carbs, and sweets and less meat compared to guys, which is the exact diet that makes animals taste better. It just seems that biologically and culturally, feminine means tasty.I wonder if anyone else explored this question. This is the only thing I found.https://kirstenkoza.com/scoop-scandal/contemplating-cannibalism-male-female-meat-tastier/The conclusion is that while female animals taste better than male animals, it's because of the male scent gland which humans don't have, but I find that answer unsatisfactory because of the traits above. And humans do have scent glands, don't they? Like the apocrine sweat gland? Science shows that male body odor is stronger and more unpleasant than female body odor. If you look at practices of cannibalism throughout history, you'll see a pattern of female flesh being more prized than male flesh, so there must be some truth in it being tastier. Does this make sense?
>>16973149Yeah just pigs in general. The wild and domestic ones are basically the same. Meat from mature male pigs have an unpleasant odor/flavor. It's called boar taint. It occurs in other mammals as well. I mentioned it and it's discussed in the link posted in the OP. I considered whether it's also a thing in humans since men have stronger and more unpleasant body odor than women.
Generally true among all mammals. Males tend to be more gamey.
>>16970060sexy anime girl.
>>16977214Sure we can analyze the biology to explain why female meat tastes better, but why do our taste buds prefer meat with these "feminine" qualities? And how would you explain the non-biological factors like food preferences. Girls practically eat exactly how animals should eat to have tasty meat: more sugar, carbs, and plants and less meat (carnivores taste bad). Isn't that a bit too uncanny to be a coincidence?
>>16970060Testosterone ruins the meat flavor. That is why male pigs get castrated and fed [math]s o y [/math].
So recently I got my first taste of existential dread/ eldritch horror. It was the theory of how universe might end and how it would result in nothing ever happening ever again, universe turning into a bowl of roaming particles that doesn't react to anything. Nothing will ever happen for all eternity and it kinda scares me knowing eventually it'll all end, existence will cease to be. It being billion even trillions of years away doesn't ease me since this possibility exists.
>>16974258>Nothing will ever happenuse case for happenings? How is it better if something happens?
>>16976682>unc still thinks the big ball is expandingYikes
>>16978479yeah? do better than god then.
>>16974251What do you mean by eldritch horror, you fucking puny mortal? There is infinite possibilities how eternity could turnout to be, including your mom being grown to planetary size and eaten by worms forever and being helplessly conscious of that. That's horror. Heat death is freedom. Whatever fuckup you do in your pathetic live, it will eventually be forgotten and impossible to retrace. You can't do anything that has eternal consequence, thus no infinite responsibility lies on your soft fleshy shoulders. Instead you can fully live in a moment because it only belongs to you, not to some "eldritch" observer that will pass judgement and give you endless punishment.

When asked how he wished to be buried, he left instructions to be thrown outside the city wall so wild animals could feast on his body. When asked if he minded this, he said, “Not at all, as long as you provide me with a stick to chase the creatures away!”. When asked how he could use the stick since he would lack awareness, he replied “If I lack awareness, then why should I care what happens to me when I am dead?”~ Diogenes of Sinope

This problem requires the derivation or proof of r(R) and beta(alpha). The extremal values, however, can be calculated numerically. Overall, it seems to me to be a rather complex task.

>>16979178Sure. It's a flawed system. But it does mean those few that get jobs are going to be bloody amazing.
>>16979178>There's also many issues that only require 1 or 2 guys to solve them, but 10000 apply to the position.That means they can also go into other fields and positions to apply their skills.

>>16978310I don't mean energy as in SI, they're conjugate inverses.E = ℏωE * t = ℏ1 meter = 1/c seconds = 3.34 nanoseconds. (special relativity, uncertainty principle)So consider that c=1, therefore meters is equal to seconds.So kg*m^2/s^2 = kgℏ = 1, because E = ℏω, energy = frequency, E=mc2, mass = frequency. kg = 1/s.So kg*m^2/s^2 = 1/s.of course this comes from choosing ℏ = 1 so it's not proof by any means.As for my theory it's purely conjecture, don't even take it remotely as fact, but I find the coincidences that pop up when working on it to be pretty interesting.After all, how did things get more complex if they did not compress the only form of free energy available, time? For a black hole, consider that the bekenstein limit says that maximum information in a region is area/(4*l_P^2) (planck length squared) bits, so if you consider time as energy, then each planck area is equal to 1 bit of time. Other theories describe this as well, but what is a bit here physically? It might be what time becomes when you convert all of it up into structure.From that follows hawking radiation, which you can describe as T_H = ℏc^3/(8πGMk_B) ∝ 1/M, the larger it is the colder it gets, from Smarr you get Mc^2/S = 2kT_Hso the black hole gets rid of frozen time bits over time, and as it does it gets hotter and faster the smaller it is.About time to structure. So, I'm mostly guessing here from random experiments, but I think the phase change from time to structure works something like this: When the structure is time-like, everything rotates freely. At random, rotations can pair up and cancel, forming pairs similarly to cooper pairs ±ω = 0, causing that random quanta of time to freeze into structure. If enough of these form they somehow produce a lattice structure (dipole effect? structural like gears or constructive obstruction?). Eventually these collapse and return to time, which makes it seem like a diffuse wave, since it's partially time, partially structure.
