>>16867396The graph of blacks honestly may as well be the graph of poor whites or at least the ones who don't have easy access to someone that could teach/ reinforce what was taught and because IQ tests are at best pattern recognition (towards the end of you've taken one) and trivia for the upper middle class for the most part. It isn't a test of something we should consider intelligence. Mostly because once you know the answer for them it's just trivia. Ex: Figure out the Next 3 Letters ONDJF
>>16867396Because their genetic code produces less of some specific string of proteins. That's just how genetics works. There are also non-genetic factors.Also black people are GENERALLY less intelligent, it's a key distinction, I wouldn't want to give the guy who solves Navier Stocks a hard time just cause he has the same skin color as murderers, rapists, and generally thug criminals.Btw yes we've identified numerous genetic traits related to high intelligence, low intelligence, violence, passivity, etc.James Watson was largely correct, and that's why we have laws that prevent genetic level discrimination, because it's true inequalities exist at the genetic level.I don't even know why this is such a big debate, we don't even live in a meritocracy. Who cares if a black person isn't very smart, as a genius I don't care because most people are retarded compared to me anyways. The difference between an IQ of 70 and 120, relative to me, is minuscule. That's why I make my low IQ friends (sub 160) based on personality.But back to the non-genetic factors. Before I decided to become a genius I wanted to be a porn mogul. I failed, so this is my back up.

The professor explicitly told me that he was passing me out of pity and that I should never in my life dedicate myself to practicing the subject matter of the course.
>>16870173Based
protip to anons from a professori would never say this explicitly to the class but if I've gotten to know you in office hours and started to root for you, I will probably give you a pity passif I have no idea who you are and you get a shit grade I'll fail youInteract with your professors anons
>>16870173Tell the professor that you were only doing the course out of pity for him so that he'd have some people to teach
>>16870404lmao. this.

>>16869640Yes, you fucking retard.The age gap doesn't matter (people will judge you regardless).You are an instructor and even the appearance of impropriety is shameful, and you should consider taking the rope or seppuku.
>>16869672>>16869783Ok thanks, I'll just change universities. It seems easier.
>>16865340You are not reflecting the cold from outside but the warmth to the inside. I have just learned that shiny surfaces on aluminium have lesser absorbtion. I'd say the matte side belongs to the inside.Btw: Why don't we have Aluminium foil consisting out of 2 "good" surfaces?
>>16861870>"photons" associated with magnetism aren't real photons but "virtual" photons.>>16865411>Whether the graviton exists or not.Is it really a coincidence that you talk about magnetism consisting of "virtual photons" but pretend not to know what gravity consists of?

Why can't we fucking think of anything better?
>>16859431The voice in my head says he can do it if he just separates the hot and cold particles
>>16859425Because you can have desalinated seawater as a byproduct that helps with water shortages retard.There is no better way. This is the best and most useful. We don't need another way.
With DT fusion over 80% of the energy is carried by uncharged neutrons which need to be stopped by radiation shielding... so all that energy pretty much has to end up as heat.If water feels too low-tek you could use helium or CO2 as a working fluid but power companies don't care how cool the working fluid is.
>>16870476It's the same problem with fuel cells, they have fuel cells that can run off of various fossil fuel gasses but boilers and gas turbines are almost as efficient and much cheaper
>>16866700because it creates pressure that can be directed to create motion
How close is humanity to inventing the technology to erase their own memories (efficiently with no negative side-effects of course). The sad fact is that if such a thing were created humans would be wise to use it all the time.Selective amnesia would be one of the most powerful survival techniques ever created.
>>16870518Ok. I see I'm dealing with yet another beige (you will never be white) American subhuman mongoloid with zero self-awareness.
>>16870520nah youre definitely a self hating oreo because that is a lot of insane projection and illiteracy
>>16870491>How closeWe are absolutely close to understand that our memories = connections between the neurons, they are the architecture of our brain, not some state that can be overwritten. A person is formed by it's memories.
>>16870542The problem with your pop-sci take is that connection between neurons is precisely a state that can be overwritten.
>>16870491But... There were a lot of negative side effects in Eternal Sunshine. They just weren't biological. You had two people that were already broken, and kept making the same mistakes because they refused to let themselves live with the pain of knowing. Unpleasant memories serve an important purpose: they allow us to learn. Removing memories would be one of the most destructive actions I could imagine someone inflicting on themselves.
Why the fuck have we not really moved past Schrödinger's cat and the double-slit experiment nearly a century later?
In the last few decades Physicists have been too busy witha) Debating about Christianity and Jesus for some reason.b) Being obsessed with non-scientific quasi-theological non-sense theories because they are mathematically 'aesthetic'.c) Crashing the financial market every 15 years. when they got into finance for the money because the physics factory wasn't hiring. That's why there hasn't been a significant scientific discovery in physics in the last 80 years apart from that one Japanese guy that made the light go blue, yeah.If you want to do actual science and push the boundaries of human knowledge it's not to late to get into chemistry and even biology, OP.
>>16870174>being too retarded to realize anon is supporting the copenhagen interpretation
>>16867159Most science and invention is like this. Do you know when solar panels were invented? 1883. The photovoltaic effect was discovered in 1839.
>>16870393"Copenhagen interpretation" is a mistranslation of "Kopenhagener Geist der Quantentheorie" dysphemistically used by sophistic /x/tards who want to pretend science is some kind of nebulous James Joyce novel open to being "interpreted" differently. Complete and utter bullshit, of course. Hesienberg wrote this:"I avow that the term 'Copenhagen interpretation' is not happy since it could suggest that there are other interpretations, like Bohm assumes. We agree, of course, that the other interpretations are nonsense, and I believe that this is clear in my book, and in previous papers. Anyway, I cannot now, unfortunately, change the book since the printing began enough time ago."There is no such thing as "interpretations". Despite lacking the intellectual capacity to understand his scientific work, you'd expect that they should at least possess kindergarten level academic integrity so as not to plagiarize the term "quantum mechanics", but even that is too much to ask from them.
>>16870462Which scientific experiment supports this claim?
I can't wrap my head around plate tectonics. Some plates are moving very fast while others are moving slow, without affecting the speed of the plates they are in contact with. One plate can split into two like how the arabian plate came out of africa... somehow. Pieces of land can randomly leave a plate and go to another plate like how madagascar seperated from india. New tectonic plates can appear without an obvious mechanism and that existing plates can be destroyed by subduction despite the fact they are also rifting away and expanding at other plate boundaries. And the idea that the ground is like a log of wood floating in a bathtub How can plate tectonics be learned?
Why do humans kiss?
>>16870521>cultural phenomenaIf you carefully read the thread, you'll notice statements that other mammals also kiss, so your claim is not accepted here
>>16870521So are you going to answer the question? Your smoothbrained just-so story doesn't actually answer it in any way.
>>16867056Our lips used to be like an extra hand back when we had giant chimp lips. If you ever watch a chimp try to use tools, he/she will 100% if the time use them to hold and manipulate objects.So its like a handshake, not sexual (except contextually). In most cultures that have existed, it wasn't explicitly sexual, just a greeting.
>>16870555>anon explains why he keeps trying to kiss his male friends on the lips
>>16867056You're checking for their health and if they taste good, it's that you want to reproduce with their DNA
I mean even if you can hold the two ends together, how can you reconnect each fiber properly so you dont end up feeling your thumb like if it was your pinky or shit like that?
>>16870527Oh, then see the second half of mh answer
>>16870522the body is mindboggling
>>16870526how promising is thhis research?>Here’s the translation of the provided content into English:---New Research on Nerve Injury Repair Is Here!Hey everyone, today I want to share a super impressive research finding! Schwann cells play a crucial role in repairing long-gap peripheral nerve injury (PNI)—their migration, proliferation, and secretion behaviors are really important. And bioactive ceramics can release active ions to regulate these "repair" cells.Researchers Wang Lin and Wang Zheng from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, along with Chang Jiang from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, discovered that the bioceramic akermanite (AT) can enhance the proliferation, migration, and secretion of Schwann cells by activating the PI3K/AKT and MAPK/ERK signaling pathways. When combined with silk sericin (SS), the effect is even better—they synergistically enhance the pro-regenerative behavior of Schwann cells and accelerate axon elongation.The AT-SS composite conduit they developed showed excellent performance in restoring the structure and function of a 13mm transected PNI. Compared with commercially available ePTFE conduits, it promotes axon and myelin regeneration, improves nerve conduction, and alleviates gastrocnemius muscle atrophy. Moreover, its functional recovery effect is comparable to that of autografts!The related findings were published in the paper titled "Bioactive Silk Sericin/Bioceramic Nerve Guidance Conduit for Effective Repair of Long-Gap Transected Peripheral Nerve Injury through Regulating Schwann Cells," in the journal Advanced Science (Impact Factor: 14.1), with a publication date of July 2025.
>>16870546Idk man I'm not a physiatrist or neurosurgeon. Warrants further research, like all new proposed biomedical devices.
>>16870225I think you would have to program astrocytes to connect that neurons back and myelinate them... But I've seen some news that now there's stem cell therapy that makes paralyzed with spinal injury walk again.
Gemini 3 Deep Think reached 45% on ARC AGI 2 (not to be confused with ARC AGI 1, which is basically fully solved) Humans (mostly STEM students) could only score 60%, on average. So while AI is still behind on accuracy, and it costs more, the writing is on the wall.GPU number crunching is getting cheaper by approximately a factor of 2 per year these days. And LLM algorithms improve by a factor of 4 per year (see the blog article by the CEO of Anthropic, who wrote about this after DeepSeek came out). This means that AI (measured in intelligence per dollar) is improving by a factor of 8 every year.
>>16856649Gemini 3 + peotiq are now at 54%, officially verified.LOL at idiots commenting here.
bump for fear
>>16867907>it's heckin' 54% at [insert retarded benchmark #523]Two more weeks and AI will be real.>LOL at idiots commenting here.>commentingGo back, cancer.
>>16856649So let me get this straight.I have to pay 100$ for AI to solve a single task which a student (not even a fully trained human) could do better. And those 100$ only include the immediate energy costs, not the cost of building the infrastructure (billions of $), nor the cost of training the LLM (more billions of $), nor the cost of the still necessary human who needs to come up with the right prompt to get the anwer from the AI.Is this scam greater than the dotcom bubble? At least back then even the regular Joe had a sense that pets.com isn't gonna deliver any ROI. But these AI corps hide behind so much tech babble that the economic side gets easily overlooked.
>>16870480>Is this scam greater than the dotcom bubble?Of course. Just wait until you find out what this decidedly non-intelligent and non-general technology IS useful for and why the ZOG is so madly pursuing it. That's the aspect everyone always leaves out. :^)

>>16870456I like your pic. It illustrates how psychology is fake. I have every single symptom on the right but no one in their right mind would put my neuroticism stemming from a moderately shitty childhood side by side with people suffering from flashbacks of their buddies getting eviscerated and blown to bits.
I recently noticed this, some stars shine normally, normal constant white glow. But some are "flashing" they flash, when they flas they sorta... change colors? Greenish to redish, its very subtle, mostly white stil. No fucking clue why

Some of his videos were fun, it sounds like he was a fine chemist who had a fun youtube channel at the end of his career.
Is there any evidence that male masturbation causes hair loss as opposed to secondary factors such as poor nutrition, connective tissue, poor vitamin levels, mechanical damage such as wind burn or scrubbing and itching, thermal damage such as cold temperature, or chemical damage such as shampoos or a lack of oils?
