Ah yes, hydrogen fuel, beloved by ignorant and retarded schizo fucks the world over.
The best part is when the issues are patiently explained, that yes it has some few small niche uses but it isn't generally viable as an energy replacement, their pig like eyes glaze over and the next day they are back to parroting how we could all be driving hydrogen cars and running our homes and industry on the stuff.
Honestly we need to build a giant automatic kicking device, force those dumb fuckers to bend over and give their dumb asses a solid kicking for a few hours. Every day. Along with flat earthers, moon hoaxers, evolution deniers, and every other loud mouthed stupid fuck on this planet. It will not make them any smarter but maybe they will learn to keep their stupid cunt mouths shut.

Whether you've been a psychiatric patient or someone who has worked in psychiatry, what do you think of psychiatry?

Is it moral to forcibly drug patients? Or should patients have the right to choose whether they take antipsychotics, since these drugs have a lot of downsides, like movement problems, heart problems, cholesterol problems, etc?

They could be trying to suppress information about the current state of molecular nanotech. No one thinks it works, but it's actually further along than people think. This situation is beneficial to the one player in the field because by the time they finish scaling up no one will be able to catch up to them. They've been known to hire private investigators for random redditors that were just promoting molecular nanotechnology. Disinformation campaigns are probably not out of the question too

Here is the summary of the Penrose Argument.

It explains why, despite being a minority view in physics, Roger Penrose’s theory remains the most scientifically rigorous roadmap to what religious traditions call "God."

1. The Physical Argument: Why He Might Be Right
Most scientists believe the brain is just a biological computer and consciousness is the software. Penrose argues this is physically impossible.

The Gödel "Checkmate":

The Premise: In mathematics, there are truths that are obvious to a human but cannot be proven by any algorithm (Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems).

The Implication: If the human mind can understand truths that algorithms cannot, then the human mind is not an algorithm.

The Conclusion: To produce the human mind, the brain must be using a law of physics that is non-computational. It cannot be just neurons firing (which is computable); it must be something deeper.

The Missing Physics (The Collapse):

Penrose argues that Quantum Mechanics is incomplete. We have the "Schrödinger evolution" (waves spreading out), but we don't have a law for why they collapse into a specific reality.

He proposes Objective Reduction (OR): The collapse isn't random; it is a fundamental decision made by the geometry of spacetime itself when gravity separates two quantum states.

>The Premise: In mathematics, there are truths that are obvious to a human but cannot be proven by any algorithm (Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems).
>The Implication: If the human mind can understand truths that algorithms cannot, then the human mind is not an algorithm.
I mean, it seems much more likely that human mind is an algorithm with a capacity to consider unproven mathematical truths as proven if they present a few other, less reliable characteristics, as that works out well enough for most primitive purposes. A greedy algorithm, essentially. It's strongly supported by the capacity of even the greatest human minds to be consistently fucking wrong about things, math included. With quantum antenna inside our brains, it seems weird that we needed Gödel and Penrose to arrive at the ideas that they presented in their time, building those on generations upon generations of iterative mistakes and misinterpretations, when even Cro-Magnons had brains full of those antennae tuned in on the Universal Truth of the meaning-generating engine.

>Evolution is efficient. It wouldn't ignore this powerful physics.
Most of this board (and humanity at large) are extremely retarded at math, and completely absolutely lack any capacity for "non-computational recognition of truth", at least in regards to math, although generally in regards to most things. Seems like evolution did ignore the power of quantum computing inside the neuron microtubules for these individuals, which happen to account for the absolute majority of human population.

I only study 1-2.5h of anki a day (150-300 cards). The rest is philosophizing with my classmates and listening to lectures, and asking questions in the clinic. Also, talking about my day to people could "count" as studying, but I don't count it. Conventional studying would put me up to 6-8 hours a day though. Fuck conventional studying.

Area 51 is carved out of the Nevada Test Site, which is entirely under the jurisdiction of the DoE/NNSA. EG&G is a DoE contractor that was originally chosen to film nuclear weapons detonations with high speed cameras and wire up the warheads for the bomb tests, probably because they were former MIT alums with Vannevar Bush. As far as the DoE being involved with UFOs, they either are nuclear powered or produce shitloads of gamma radiation as a byproduct if the propulsion mechanism. Either way, it falls squarely under the jurisdiction of the DoE, and what branch of the military works hand in hand with the DoE because they operate 40+ nuclear reactors...?

Weinstein unironically hit the nail partially on the head. He thinks that SUNY Stony Brook is the nexus of (((UFOs))), which I'm sure he is partially right. What does Stony Brook have in common with the general point I'm trying to make?? They run Brookhaven National Lab. Guess who also jointly runs the accelerator facilities at Brookhaven with the DoE? The Office of Naval Research. It's more about how he's missing out on all the other NatLab and DoE affiliated university research at places other than Stony Brook. People forget that our national labs aren't run directly by the government, they are managed by big university systems (U of TX, U of CA, SUNY, etc.) and glownigger defense contractors (LockMart, Batelle, Honeywell).

Naive Set Theory by Paul Halmos is essential. Very short and he actually explains the relationship between set theory and the Peano "axioms" (the recursion theorem). After that you may want to read about Dedekind sections (optional) before moving on to real analysis. I recommend Elementary Analysis: The Theory of Calculus by Kenneth A. Ross
