https://youtu.be/lk8e_pY3Hvk?si=M04-E35iRL1_M-TQThe concept of a monotheistic God is not incompatible with physics, evolution, and the natural sciences, but is rather fundamental to them. The structures revealed by the natural sciences prove the metaphysical principles of monotheism to be true. The restoration of these principles to the foundation of the natural sciences, opens up a whole new paradigm, that resolves the problems of physical materialism.
I've graduated with 100s of engineers from a half decent accredited school, and truth be told none of them could provide any value whatsoever.The program was just 4 years of moderately easy intellectual masturbation, that most of them cheated their way through.If life was fair most of them would be flipping burgers, but their degree allows them to join a tech firm where they sell engineering "solutions" to other engineers that are just as incompetent as themselves.I have a hunch that 99% of people who are in STEM are like this. If you're not graduating from top 50 schools in the world, there's no meaningful technical work you can do.You are just being recruited to be part of the parasitic bureaucratic class;
>people go to school to get jobs instead of masturbating to their midwit IQ like OPColor me shocked
they're trying to pay the bills anon

I graduated with a bs in mech. Engineering years and years ago. I did enjoy many parts of the experience, not necessarily the costs of student loans, but the actual scientific learning process of logical thought. One of my favorite classes was all about efficiency, mass balance, continuous energy in a dynamic system, etc - loved that one, still think about it. The math became routine and boring but the late night smoke seshes with the boys over sci fi and homework (seldomly) was some of the best social time I could ever ask for. Anyway, after college I worked in retail management for a long time, then unsuccessfully got into real estate, mild success in finance, decent success in audio engineering, and now after all is said and done at 35 years old I own a gas station that I also work at lol. I can buy lots of weed and audio equipment as a result and my wife is like a solid 8/10 30 yo.I think if you’re super passionate about a discipline, STEM or otherwise, you’ll find a way to succeed to a level of which you can fully explore this passion. Hard work aside, some of it is luck sure, or credentials, but your own obsession is what drives you.My obsession with paying off my loans started in retail and mutated into an obsession with music that was fueled by many business ideas. I don’t think engineering was ever a passion, but it as an experience and I don’t regret having a piece of paper I never use.
>>16820333Do you have the book name of that class

>>16813691The bomb proof diesels of yesteryear would do fine. The injector heads won't like it but with enough processing thats not more of an issue than using regular fuel. It'd be something like this Prefilter->RO->Carbon filter->membrane filters->oxidisation step (might not be a good idea for fuel but overkill when dealing with such nasty VOCs is the safe bet)->prefilter->carbon filter->membrane filters->RO->stabilisers
>>16809675>>16811302Pyrolysis processes for producing gasoline have been around forever. It's just heating up plastics in an anoxic environment.Yes, the pyrolysis can be self sustaining, so essentially you turn some plastic into gasoline and use some of that product to heat up more plastic which then a portion gets used for more heating and so forth. This means that you can essentially indefinitely produce gasoline as long as you have a supply of plastic. The biggest downside is that it produces CO2 and some other nasty pollutants you probably don't want anywhere near where humans live. You're just unlocking some of the carbon stored in plastics, so it's gonna throw off long chain hydrocarbons and other carcinogens into the air which nobody wants to breathe.
>>16817249That's why it's better to just grow plants that aren't toxic and convert them to alcohol.
>>16809616FREE PLASTOLINE
>>16809625Because white people don't do dumb shit for fun? Like ever? Why make it about race? There are plenty of black scientists doing important work, let the nigga have some fun with his plastic fuel.

Is most information false?
>>16818979for any one piece of information there exists some other piece of information diametrically opposed to it, and thus false. is vs. isn't. thus, the set of all information is closed under inverses, and it is evenly split between true and false.
>>16819612wrong. reality isn't binary
>>16819612So information *has* to have a truth value? What about something like "This information is false." Where does that go? Is there more valueless information than valued?
>>16820131Every paradoxical statement is false on a metalevel. So there are more false statements.
>>16819621whew good thing boolean is a primitive and we avoid this issue at its conceptionsurely nobody would be dumb enough to parse a complex construct as a primitive, yes?
if one could make a classic open bottom diving bell with indestructible material, what would happen if you went several kms into the ocean?would the pressure rise inside and kill you or would it stay normal at 1 atm?what if were 5 kms deep and touched the water? would your hand get crushed?
>>16818225What you propose is basically a more impractical method of saturation diving, for which the generally understood human limit is 1000 meters.>https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5110125/You will need a custom blend of gasses pumped into the bell at increasing pressure as it descends very slowly over the course of several days. Try not to need rescue btw.
>>16818721The pressure inside the bell would still be high, you would get nitrogen poisoning or something.Technically the body doesn't get crushed, but you get weird blood problems at high pressures which is what limits divers in real world diving. This can be circumvented by exotic breathing mixtures instead of air but this only gets you so far because the human body was never meant for pressures this high.
>>16818990https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_diving#Depth_recordsAccording to this someone was able to survive simulated pressure at 701 meters using an exotic breathing mix, maybe this could be improved on.
>>16818848Swimming would not feel any different. The water at bottom of Marianas trench is maybe 5% more dense but so will be the water inside you at that point. I do not know if you could "feel" the difference in the density, maybe you could maybe you couldn't. Perhaps it would feel bit strange when you first jump in but at just 5% the difference would be marginal and quickly lost as an active feeling I believe.>>16818990Those breathing mixtures are mostly related to non saturation diving (some exists in saturation diving too). In saturation diving you can mostly just breath regular air.
>>16818990>>16819018You'd most certainly get crushed at Mariana Trench depth.Your body can not equalize to such high pressure (1000 bar). Even if you could equalize the air in your lungs and maybe your blood vessels, your other organs would certainly be compressed. At the latest your skull would implode for not being up to the task of holding 10000 meters of water above it.If we could just equalize to the water pressure we wouldn't need pressurized submarines.
Why do you not want to get a PhD?>Higher earning potential>Produce a novel contribution to your field>Prove you can do research, problem solve etc which are valuable skills employers are looking for
>>16817707Why was the Phd a mistake? Quantitative analyst employers like the math skills physics phds have.
>>16817698meds
>>16817690No PhD would ever make these lofty claimst. PhD
>>16817690>Higher earning potentialOffset by the 4 to 6 years spent in graduate school. Also overqualified for many positions.>Produce a novel contribution to your fieldYou can technically do that in your Bachelor as well, althuogh I admit it has become difficult to contribute meaningfully without industrial funding.>Prove you can do research, problem solve etc which are valuable skills employers are looking forTechnically, the ability to do just that should be conferred by the time you have your Master's.>Why do you not want to get a PhD?Sure, I would like to look into it once you explain to me how you can realistically enter such programs as a Master's students with average grades.
>>16817749>Sure, I would like to look into it once you explain to me how you can realistically enter such programs as a Master's students with average grades.NTA but professors are always looking for more OPhD students. And what they want are people that will grind through the time it takes to complete and without quitting.Demonstrate that and your average grades is not a problem.
What the fuck happened to quantum gravity? Why does no one study it anymore?
>>16819719You’ve been filtered. It makes perfect sense.
>>16816511It’s very different from the other forces in that it is spin 2. This makes it>unique (in the sense that every massless spin 2 field must obey EFEs)>extremely non-linear>the group that governs the dynamics is an infinite-dimensional Lie-Frechet group, the diffeomorphism group of 3+1 dimensions, which is far worse behaved than the usual finite-dimensional Lie groups of the other forces>the (3,1) signature makes the dynamics mathematically ill-behaved in many ways, non-compactness being a major one>the gravitational constant is not dimensionless, making vanilla renormalization procedures fail>other forces treat spacetime as the “background arena” whereas gravity is directly tied to spacetime >the naive Hamiltonian, canonical quantization is very problematic because the Hamiltonian formalism separates time>the naive Lagrangian, covariant quantization is very problematic because of the aforementioned dimensionality and non-compactness issues

Is there a mechanism linking moral conduct to postmortem fate?
All religions agree that low effort frogposters go to the worst part of hell
>>16819982Yeah but we're talking about science here.
>>16819974>Is there a mechanism linking moral conduct to postmortem fate?What people call a "bad moral conduct" is generally caused by a deep-seated dissatisfaction with life. By committing "bad deeds", you only double down on the root causes of that dissatisfaction and it never goes away. It haunts you to your very last moment. But here's the catch: your last moment lasts forever. You will never feel that temporary relief again, that you used to get by being a piece of shit. Nothing ever comes to wash away that filth. Your last moment lasts forever, logically speaking (inb4 logic is not scientific). Therefore you're stuck in a kind of eternal hell.
What is "now"? And does it even exist?Give me a universal describtion of "now" that is valid for every obsever in the universe.C is the maximum speed for information. But the moment light hits my eyes, it's already the past. So does "now" even exist? We are all living in the past, which means our future is determined. Even when it's just determined for a splitsecond, it's still determined.
>>16820217>We are all living in the past, which means our future is determined.It doesn't mean that at all.
>>16820227The future already happened. You just haven't noticed it yet.
>>16820217I see what your slop is trying to argue, but in reality, the "next" state of affairs you will distinctly perceive is modified by your current perception of a slightly outdated situation, so it's not predetermined in the way you are.
>>16820288in the way you argue*
alright so you guys are fucking geniuses or whatever. dogecoin maxi from biz here.please argue with eachother about most efficient ways to make turbines, water wheels and peltons in contexts of rivers and streams.
