>nah bro intelligent life? Impossible >the closest habitable planet is not even 5 lightyears away>even fucking Mars had conditions to support life >estimated to be 40 billion habitable planets in the universe, minimumWhy is belief against intelligent life the scientific consensus? Why are scientists retarded in just this one area?
>>16169483you ever dig up every ant on earth and weight them? yeah, didn't think so nerd.
>>16169519Wrong again.Youre right regarding the ants. What's your point ? As I've stated, another anon incorrectly claimed this. Thank you for confirmation, just weird to try and frame it like it wasn't.>>16169536No. So ? Please do everyone a favour and abstain from partaking in any discussions unless you have conducted the relevant research entirely on your own.
>>16169554>Wrong again.Nope, there are a bunch of different cattle species. Even so, cattle are numerous due to human intelligence, so the initial argument can be extended to:>We are likely to encounter intelligent life and/or their cattle biomass
>>16169593You are now trying to fix your argument only to avoid admitting it is objectively wrong.Besides that you are derailing this on a useless tangent, you may pursue it further on your own. After all you have failed to show how total biomass is a good let alone the best indicator of evolutionary success of a species.One could make similar arguments that - intuitively - are similarly convincing. Like tadpole shrimp or nautilus being peak evolution since they have survived and retained their form for far greater periods of times than humans have so far, as such humans would still have to but are statisticall, unlikely to prove themselves in this regard. Or the life forms that are at the intersction of the most cases of convergent evolution being peak evolution for obvious reasons. etc. etc.All entertainable ideas and perhaps intuitive. But that's about it so far.
>>16169608>how total biomass is a good let alone the best indicator of evolutionary success of a species.There is no objective definition of this, it's all arbitrary. You're not following.Select 1 random biomass unit in our universe. It likely has a couple of the following traits:>Can reproduce>Can respond to the environment>It has self-preservation mechanisms>Is highly intelligent or is being selectively bred by another biomass that is highl intelligentWhat is common you are likely to encounter.

Good news everyone, rice, which is possibly the world's most important agricultural crop, not only grows better under CO2 enhanced atmospheric conditions, it also becomes more disease resistant when atmospheric CO2 is increased. >Effects of elevated CO2 on resistant and susceptible rice cultivar and its primary host, brown planthopperhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8076292/>The elevated CO2 (eCO2) has positive response on plant growth and negative response on insect pests. As a contemplation, the feeding pattern of the brown plant hopper, Nilaparvata lugens Stål on susceptible and resistant rice cultivars and their growth rates exposed to eCO2 conditions were analyzed. The eCO2 treatment showed significant differences in percentage of emergence and rice biomass that were consistent across the rice cultivars, when compared to the ambient conditions. Similarly, increase in carbon and decrese in nitrogen ratio of leaves and alterations in defensive peroxidase enzyme levels were observed, but was non‐linear among the cultivars tested. Lower survivorship and nutritional indices of N. lugens were observed in conditions of eCO2 levels over ambient conditions. Results were nonlinear in manner. We conclude that the plant carbon accumulation increased due to eCO2, causing physiological changes that decreased nitrogen content. Similarly, eCO2 increased insect feeding, and did alter other variables such as their biology or reproduction.
>>16153552The global warming hysterics' ignorance of science is what powers their belief in global warming
>>16160267This, Mars would have a massive greenhouse effect if CO2 were a greenhouse gas and Mars has no measurable greenhouse effect, Mars' average temperature is the same as it's planetary thermal equilibrium temperature despite Mars having hundreds of times more CO2 in it's atmosphere than Earth does
>>16167888Don't worry, NASA will soon fix that by lying about the average surface temperature on Mars
>>16169591Holy shit the stupidity. Have fun existing during the carboniferous. Geeee I wonder WHY no human evolved during the carboniferous.
where did the lie that CO2 is bad for the planet come from?
>>16166886Retard take
>>16167189Explain how he's wrong.It took 3 centuries of mass industrial scale combustion of fossil fuels to raise co2 from 280ppm to 400ppm. Perhaps we MIGHT reach 700ppm by the end of this century if it keeps rising by about 2.5ppm per year.700ppm is still a long way from 5500.I happen to have CO2 monitors in my home. In my bedroom where my wife and I sleep, the concentration reaches over 900 overnight, even with the window ajar. With the window shut and no ventilation, it reaches over 1600 overnight.
>>16123798From scientists, scientists lie about everything
>>16167228Interday CO2 curves are fairly interesting.
Bad news fellow vaxxies, the "turbo cancer" rumor that the conspiracy theorists have been yammering about has turned out to be completely true, as proved by this recent publication:https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38234925/>The "hallmarks of cancer" were proposed by Hanahan and Weinberg (2000) as a group of biological competencies that human cells attain as they progress from normalcy to neoplastic transformation. These competencies include self-sufficiency in proliferative signaling, insensitivity to growth-suppressive signals and immune surveillance, the ability to evade cell death, enabling replicative immortality, reprogramming energy metabolism, inducing angiogenesis, and activating tissue invasion and metastasis. Underlying these competencies are genome instability, which expedites their acquisition, and inflammation, which fosters their function(s). Additionally, cancer exhibits another dimension of complexity: a heterogeneous repertoire of infiltrating and resident host cells, secreted factors, and extracellular matrix, known as the tumor microenvironment, that through a dynamic and reciprocal relationship with cancer cells supports immortality, local invasion, and metastatic dissemination.

previous thread >>16072199if you love stats, weird numbers and counterintutive science, this is your general. Because one of the things with statistics is that nothing ever seems to be what it tries to show you on a first glance or glimpse. Doesn't matter if you are a seasoned professional, NEET or some disgruntled grad student. All are welcome.Some people may not like it if you try to make them do your homework, others won't care and will just help you. Let's discuss theories together, ask questions and try to meme a little about this field.in the previous thread we discussed why Julia has promise but is not delivering. How some people still use Matlab but hate it.So, grab your favorite statistical software, dust off your textbooks, and join me in this exciting journey through the world of /psg/ - Probability and Statistics General! Let's embark on this adventure together and unravel the mysteries of data one statistical concept at a time.

>>16169528How come?
I've been taking a online remedial mathematics course and I'm currently on long division. I feel like I need to start over because I rushed through the course and the course itself is quite lackluster. I've been passing the sections with flying colors but they only teach me how to follow one procedure and not how to gain number sense. The same exact problem plagues Khan academy so it isn't that good either.If I'm asked to show how to solve a basic arithmetic problem in multiple different ways I would flounder. Currently I haven't gained the ability to do mental arithmetic quickly which would hinder me later down the road if I proceed to more advanced math topics.Is there a book that can help me alleviate this issue?

1% light speed is achievable even with conservative tech5-10% light speed may be possible with fusion engines or nuclear pulse plate pushers.Above 10% we prob need some strange new technology.Faster than lightspeed, who knows if this couls be possible (advanced Albuquirre drive).Why do we war instead of colonizing the solar system and the galaxy?

>>16162547So what? Life's so bad it isn't funny. If you offered anyone who has it bad the chance to go, they would. Especially if you gave them and their family like $50,000 and food for the trip.

There are much worse things than this and the only people who talk this way have such an insular life with good salaries they think some random wagie shit can't be that bad. It is. Nonexistence is preferable if you're in the bottom 20% of earners so the safety argument is meaningless. Just send some poor person and they will gladly seize the chance and view the risks and cold life in space as better than the hell that was there on earth. Stupid midwit.
