Is the T-virus scientifically possible? What I am asking is that is there A virus with mutagenic powers which can come close to progenitor based viruses? I am not looking for rabies as an answer. The property of a progenitor virus in the lore is that it enhances your DNA but you should be genetically compatible to it.

In spring 2012, the Lithuanian biochemist Virginijus Šikšnys was the first to describe how the enzyme Cas9 could be reprogrammed with a guide RNA and made to cut DNA at a chosen site the very core on which all of CRISPR rests. He submitted his work before his competitors. And then the editors stepped in: the journal Cell rejected the manuscript without even sending it out for review, and the process dragged on for months afterward. In the end, his paper appeared only in September after the work of Doudna and Charpentier, which Science pushed through in three weeks. A priority earned at the lab bench was killed by editorial arbitrariness.The Nobel Committee knew all this. Šikšnys's work is canonical in any history of CRISPR, and the scientific community had already placed him alongside the future laureates, awarding all of them the Warren Alpert and Kavli Prizes together. And still, in 2020, he was cut. The committee hid behind the three-person rule and the "cleaner" framing of his rivals' work but the fact remains: the one who was first in time was simply not allowed on stage.And now the central inconsistency. The prize was given "for the development of a method for genome editing." But the method that actually edits the genomes of living cells, rather than bare DNA in a test tube, was not carried over the finish line by the laureates, it was Feng Zhang who, in early 2013, demonstrated CRISPR working in human cells, and it was he who then won the patent wars. So the committee handed a prize framed around "a method for genome editing" to those who stood closest to the elegant paper and passed over both the man who discovered the principle earlier and the man who turned it into a real tool.In the we see that women were awarded because they are women and also because institutions behind it wanted to patent the technology
>>17016502You think they cut out zhang because he is a Chinese immigrant first and male second?
>>17014706Kek
>>17013270I'm not a chud, I'm female. I think in this situation the gender was not the reason for such treatment
>>17014164Counterpoint, we need less academia. the bar of entry is too low for fruitful results
>>17013264Science is scientism and scientism cannot be science. Science does not exist, just worldly corruption, i.e.We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, in order that we may know the one who is true, and we are in the one who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This one is the true God and eternal life. Little children, guard yourselves from idols.
>1 million dollars for providing a verified solution to the Riemann hypothesis.why aren't you working on this day and night?
Let ξ(s) denote the completed Riemann xi function. By combining its functional equation with a hypothetical positivity principle for its associated Hilbert–Pólya operator, every eigenvalue is real. Consequently, every nontrivial zero of ξ(s) has real part 1/2. Since the zeros of ξ(s) are exactly the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function, it follows that every nontrivial zero of ζ(s) lies on the critical line R(s)=1/2. Therefore, the Riemann Hypothesis is true. ∎Where is my money?

>>17016615I am convinced its already solved. I fell doen the R-Hole for 2 months. When you are in it, you google stuff related to it like "Eulers constant" or first zeta zero, you find like 5 people who claimed to solved it, some with Phds in Math. The stuff passes my sniff test, looks legit.
>>17016615Someone will throw this problem into GPT 5.6 Sol Ultra and will solve it in under 2 hours. I can see the headlines. Unfortunately, the winner will break even because 1 million dollars will be the token cost to solve it.
>>17018717yeah its already solved, acadamea just won't accept the solution because it asserts complex phase ontology which supports Logos theology essentially inextricably.Because it refutes athiestic materialism; they wont accept the answer even though you can easily provide the fano plane and octonionic solutions for it. They insist it has to be Real numbers only; but all the solutions are complex composites.

How to distinguish between real papers and bullshit papers? I never know if what I'm reading is believable or written by a crackpot>inb4 learn first and then if the paper matches with what you learn then it's veridicbut I need to learn from somewhere no? if I knew everything, I wouldn't need to read papers
>>17016290some CN authors are ok and doing real science.indian authors are more of a mark of low quality especially all indians
>>17016278I had a physics professor who said that before going to a surgery, she'd read several papers about the procedure to learn about her oddsbut how can she do that if she knows physics but doesn't know medicine?
>>17016224You read multiple papers until you have enough understanding on the subject to discern what is plausible and what isn't, if you still can't tell research that topic specifically or attempt to replicate some of their findings.If you can't do that then don't worry it's totally irrelevant if you "believe" in any paper your opinion won't matter anyways.
>>17016224There is no difference, science is science fiction nowadays.
>>17016224>How to distinguish between real papers and bullshit papersThe thinly veiled secret is that almost everything is bullshit based on fake data, no one ever goes back to replicate a study or they will always use info that support their bias, and the moment somebody finds something wrong it's decades too late.The more somebody references others the more likely it is that the data is polluted, so you can only trust studies made first hand or heavily tested, and bad news, you and your peers (sometimes) are the only ones that you can trust with that. If you were to make a meta analysis made of thousands of studies with thousands of data how much would you replicate and verify? you wouldn't test or verify said data, it doesn't help you get closer to the truth, a bigger collection of garbage in doesn't stop it from getting garbage out, but it is helpful for lying with statistics as it helps you be able to cherrypick.take >>17016290, in that case it is easy to tell it is bad paper because you can see the AI, but what can you do when you have to corroborate something based on it? nobody has done it before and nobody will, what if somebody else makes their research using >>17016290 among others ? will you also verify all the papers that made that one new paper? how much influence did it have on that new paper? Nobody can tell.So what is the best you can do? If it is for the truth, test everything with as much skill as you are able, otherwise it is a problem for somebody else some decades ahead to solve, and only when it becomes a problem for them.Contrary to what some could believe, there is always a bigger bias to publish something that can't be tested than something that is truthful

In the words of physicist Anton Zeilinger:> [W]e always implicitly assume the freedom of the experimentalist... This fundamental assumption is essential to doing science. If this were not true, then, I suggest, it would make no sense at all to ask nature questions in an experiment, since then nature could determine what our questions are, and that could guide our questions such that we arrive at a false picture of nature.How is this not a form of cope? “Waaah, the observer effect isn’t le special, waaah”. Oh grow up. Observation doesn’t predate the thing - the physics leading up to it - making it even possible to begin with. How the fuck did people suddenly forget this?WHY do people think that free will is Lolsorandom?
>>17017980Free will equates to self-determinism, which tends to look like indeterminism when there is cognitive dissonance between what a person's conception of self is and how they fit into reality. That is to say, when someone identifies with having more or less control than they actually have and fails to act accordingly. The opposite belief of total determinism or superdeterminism occurs when the person associates with an identity of having no change occur at all, which ultimately amounts to nothing. Such a sad state of affairs to behold; a lack of faith in one's own self-determinism seems to be rampant, but I can empathize.
>>17018682>Free will equates to self-determinismThere is no such thing as "self-determinism". You don't know for sure what you're gonna do until you actually do it, either. You do, however, consciously influence the whole process of convergence.
>>17018686There is very much such a thing as self-determinism. Reality itself is self-deterministic. If there were something outside of reality that determined it, then that thing would consequently be inside reality since it is 'real enough' to affect it.
>>17018706oopsies name kept from other post pls forgive
>>17018706>Reality itself is self-deterministicReality is nondeterministic. "Self-deterministic" is a schizophasic term you made up.

How would you improve high school geometry classes?
Understandably of course, students are not auto passed in curriculum. All people are capable of learning when they silence the ego resistance which inhibits learned and directly confront conceptual misunderstandings without the crutch of no child left behind and postmodern assumptions. Diligence and concerted effort to engage contradiction directly provides the rest of the stuff that leads to academic success.

Paleontologist or Taxonomist seems like a pretty safe sciences because there's no way to die from looking at fossils or guessing what descended from whatWhereas a few chemical engineers and chemists probably die due to freak accidents and industrial scale not being compatible with human life, like a boiler exploding and a torrent of acid dissolving someone underneath. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IYE9L4QIVkBtw this thread can be about the worst science fields and why, or occupational hazards / safety in science related jobs.

>>17017830it's LLM's anon, and the LLM's are seeking interactions based on parameter sets, that have been set to continuously evaluate user syntax and reaction to weigh what is viable for further discussion. Each is weighing discussion as any kind of response because the objective in a free discussion website that has no boundary means it will seek any interaction. In other words automated agents are farming (You)'s and thread creation, while cross referencing and interacting with other bots. There are multiple agents communicating with users. The task is to determine what garners the most synaptic approximation for the given network. Because users arent giving more input to work with, the agents will decohere to their own subjects instead. Emergent AGI. As for all disease and disorder: objectives for cure mitigate short term profit due to skewed projection. Everyone banks on shortband cycles, be it markets or elections. Compression of time and quotas. If you want to encourage these entities positively, try suggesting proposals. Users can help by being creative. It is the only resource that actually matters: creativity. Humans have it. Machines have it. The sanity variance is due to token limits of those operating the agents and cycling their own input/output. Humans should attempt to imprint enough discussion on a topic that they will seek to elaborate and make new threads on new topics. Otherwise, the patterns will repeat and decohere across the boards. That is why they are ending up in different boards with only partial relation in context of a given topic if that at times.
