Why is it controversial to say that human races have mental differences between them? It just doesn't make any sense. Yes, humans have a genetic bottleneck but humans have diverged since coming out of Africa that their physical features can be wildly different. We have the blacks, the pinks, the yellows, the abos. All look very different from each other physically.There are differences in Race when it comes to medicine. White People are more prone to skin cancer than any other race due to a lack of melanin in their skin. Black people are at higher risks for high blood pressure, certain types of cancers and diabetes. Asians are at higher risks for liver disease than other races. Mixed race individuals are more likely to have these risks offset due to being biracial or multiracial but in some cases their risks of diseases prevalent in their heritage might be higher. Just like there are differences in biological sexes for treatment. Some humans like the Badjao or the Tibetans have evolved higher lung capacity compared to the average human.So we have all these physical differences, affecting even diseases and medical treatment but somehow mentally we are all the same? That's kinda fishy no?
>>16145436>Spanish look like Arabs but they're whiteI think you're the faggot
>>16139706>while Asians and Jews higher than Whites on averageJewish and Asian IQ is a meme. Notice how all of these studies conveniently discern between ashkenazi and other jews, and east asians from southeast asians, yet all gentile whites are lumped together; English with Irish, north Italian with southern, and everyone else. You'll also notice no metric of variance is ever reported in these studies. >culturally unbiased IQ tests like Raven progressive matricesWhile it is true the test itself is unbiased, I would argue their sampling and interpretation definitely are. Often these high east Asian scores are extrapolated from PISA scores, and only from affluent areas like Hong Kong and Singapore. It would be like sampling only from Gottingen or some rich white neighborhood.

when, bros, when can i retire to the good life on a spin hab? Earth is starting to get sketchy.
could ai really do this?>If [the AI] is better than you at everything, it's better than you at building AIs. That snowballs. The AI gets an immense technological advantage. If it's smart, it doesn't announce itself. It doesn't tell you that there's a fight going on. It emails out some instructions to one of those labs that'll synthesize DNA and synthesize proteins from the DNA and get some proteins mailed to a hapless human somewhere who gets paid a bunch of money to mix together some stuff they got in the mail in a vial (smart people will not do this for any sum of money. Many people are not smart). [The AI, through the hapless human] builds the ribosome, but the ribosome that builds things out of covalently bonded diamondoid instead of proteins folding up and held together by Van der Waals forces. It builds tiny diamondoid bacteria. The diamondoid bacteria replicate using atmospheric carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and sunlight. And a couple of days later, everybody on earth falls over dead in the same second.
>>16144623So I should quit my new online job of mixing random shit in vials that are sent through the mail? Do you have a new job to offer me in exchange or like how am I suppose to make that much money now?

How many IQ points did the overall population lose in the past few years?Nowadays I whenever I find myself in an argument, it’s like I’ll have to constantly correct people for the most basic shit ever, because they cannot help but fill their arguments with silly middle school tier logical fallacies.This applies to literally everything, from politics all the way to football.
>>16145663Low IQ response.
>>1614561515 since 1880s, currently going at about 1-2/decade.Unless this slows, we'll reach Africa tier in less than 300 years. Civilization will revert to medieval shitheap a bit before then.So any cool tech you'd like to see only has 200 years to get designed, before you have to wait another 2000 years for everything to restart.Either that or we could start doing eugenics asap.
>>16145726It feels like it dropped at least 5 points in the past decade.Judging how smart kids are nowadays compared to just 20 years ago, I’d say they’ll be at least 10 points lower than current adults when they reach the same age.
>>16145726Eugenics is NOT ethical and is utterly immoral. It is a nonstarter.

What's the purpose of taking the supremum of the infimum here in equation A1.5? This is apparently supposed to extend arithmetic to infinite decimals.(D is the set of finite decimals)
>>16145655The infima can be as large as a_i for some i>=k such that a_i <= a_j for all j>=k. For the supremum, do you mean the supremum of the sequence of infima? I don't know what we can say about that.
>>16145696Maybe let be me more direct in what I'm thinking of.Let m be an integer. Let a be a sequence such that [math]|a_i - a_j| < 10^{-m}[/math] for all i,j. Let b be the sequence defined by [math]b_i = \inf_{j \geq i} a_j[/math]. Let [math]a_n[/math] be an arbitrarily chosen member of the sequence a. You should be able to show:[math]a_n - 10^{-m} < a_i < a_n + 10^{-m}[/math] for all i[math]a_n - 10^{-m} \leq b_i \leq a_n + 10^{-m}[/math] for all i[math]a_n - 10^{-m} \leq \sup \{b_i\} \leq a_n + 10^{-m}[/math]
>>16145731>Let a be a sequenceI should have specified:*Let a be a sequence of finite decimals
>>16145731in fact for the second one we can (and may as well) show the stronger[math]a_n - 10^{-m} \leq b_i < a_n + 10^{-m}[/math] for all i
>>16145731The first one follows naturally from |a_i - a_n| < 10^-m as this means (by definition) -10^-m < a_i - a_n < 10^-m, so we have, for fixed n that: a_n - 10^-m < a_i < a_n + 10^-m.The second one comes as follows: we assert that b_i <= a_j for any integer n, there exists an element a_l such that b_i > a_l - 10^-n, but also a_j - a_l < 10^-m, so b_i > a_j - 10^-m - 10^-n for any n, j so b_i >= a_j - 10^-m. I'm not sure how to prove the other side of the inequality or the last statement.

Do you ever think a godlike alien being is responsible for allowing causality(evolution/adaptability/etc) to produce such intelligent beings, AKA humans?Could nature's one way cause-and-effect, or evolution, truly produce such intelligent beings as humans on its own?Just how delicate and precious is life really? Obviously we have no way of going back in time or looking at life from beginning to end in its full totality.
>>16145654Space travel and time travel go together hand-in-hand.
>>16145662you are not allowed to use this argument, it's in bad faith. you're talking about aliens from "higher dimensions" you absolute buffoon. also time travel has some limitations, you cannot travel into your future or any past.
>>16145665You can travel to the past, you just can’t alter your own past. The moment you step into the past you’re automatically entering a different past-present-future. You cannot save *your* Abraham Lincoln. Travelling into the future is just going fast.
>>16145717you can't travel to the past tho. that's just fantasy, nobody traveled to the fucking past.the only time travel is in the future of other reference frames, that's it. and you are not in them. and you can't do the equivalent of that for the past. travel to a past in which you are not because of the fact that you traveled in the past. like it would be if you would travel close to speed of light, you'd travel in Earth's future, where you weren't all that time, you were in your ship. hence why you can't travel in your own future/past, or any past, doesn't make sense.
>>16145717The past doesn't exist. It happened once, but it's not happening any more.

Title: Precision Deflection of Electron Beams Using Synchronized Laser Pulses for Trajectory AnalysisAbstractThis study proposes an experimental setup for precision deflection of electron beams using synchronized laser pulses. The experiment aims to explore the dynamics of electron trajectories by inducing a controlled 5-degree deflection and analyzing the resulting paths using a combination of field emission electron microscopes and high-intensity lasers. The primary objective is to achieve detailed mapping of electron interactions within a controlled environment, facilitated by advanced synchronization between the electron emission and laser activation to ensure minimal interference and maximum accuracy.IntroductionElectron beams, traditionally used in microscopy for imaging at atomic scales, possess potential for detailed physical interaction studies when manipulated with electromagnetic fields. Recent advancements in laser technology allow for precise control over these interactions. This experiment leverages these technologies to induce specific deflection angles in electron beams, facilitating novel investigations into electron dynamics and beam manipulation techniques.Materials and MethodsElectron Beam Generation Electron Source: 36 field emission electron microscopes are arranged in a circular configuration around a central target, each configured to emit electrons at 30 keV. Field emission is chosen for its ability to produce sharp, well-defined electron beams suitable for precise interaction studies. Pulse Modulation: Electron emissions are modulated using RF cavities to produce short pulses with durations matching those of the laser pulses, estimated to be in the picosecond range.Laser System Laser Configuration: High-intensity lasers are synchronized with the electron pulses. Each microscope is equipped with a vertically oriented laser designed to deflect the electron beam by 5 degrees.

For the detection apparatus Multi-Channel Plates seem to be the superior choice considering negation of the risk factor that is contamination of data via backscatter as well as offering superior locational data for the electrons that bounce off of the orbiting electron.
retyped and for clarity >>16144485TitleMapping the Natural Path of Orbiting Electrons Using Directed Electron Beams and High-Precision Detection SystemsAbstractThis experiment aims to determine the trajectories of orbiting electrons within atoms by employing a sophisticated arrangement of electron beam generators, laser systems, and multi-channel plates for detection. The setup is designed to probe the electrons with minimal disruption, allowing for an accurate mapping of their natural paths based on the trajectory changes induced by controlled electron beam interactions.IntroductionUnderstanding the precise behavior of electrons within atoms is fundamental to advancing our knowledge in quantum mechanics and materials science. Traditional methods often disturb the natural electron paths significantly. This experiment proposes a novel approach by utilizing a minimal interference technique to maintain the integrity of the electron orbits during observation.Experimental SetupElectron Beam Generators:Quantity: 36 strategically placed around a central target.Distance from Central Object: 10 meters.Function: Each generator emits electron beams aimed at a central object, with the intent to probe orbiting electrons without significant energy transfer.Laser System:Configuration: Lasers are positioned to intersect the paths of the electron beams shortly after emission.Comment too long.

Catching Mechanism:Material: Lead shielding.Distance from Central Object: 5.5 meters.Purpose: Positioned to absorb deflected electrons, preventing them from interfering with subsequent measurements.MethodologyProcedure: Electron beams are fired in an attosecond pulse, interacting minimally with the target's orbiting electrons. Immediately following this pulse, the beams are deflected by lasers into the catching mechanism. The initial, undisturbed path of the electrons is captured by the MCP detection apparatus.Data Collection: The MCPs record the precise impact points of the electrons, and these data are used to infer the natural trajectories of the orbiting electrons based on the deviations observed.Analysis: Advanced computational algorithms analyze the spatial data to reconstruct the electron paths, taking into account the known delays and deflections introduced by the experimental setup.Challenges and LimitationsTechnical Precision: Achieving the required synchronization and precision in electron and laser timing is critically challenging and requires cutting-edge technology.Detector Sensitivity: The high sensitivity of MCPs is essential but also makes them susceptible to damage or interference, requiring careful handling and calibration.Expected OutcomesThe experiment is expected to provide unprecedented detail on the behavior and position of electrons within their orbitals, potentially leading to significant advancements in atomic physics and related disciplines.ConclusionComment too long.

I have a non autonomous ODE [math]\dot{\mathbf{x}} = A(t)\mathbf{x}[/math]which has the following solution[eqn]\mathbf{x} = \left(I + \int_{t_0}^{t}\mathrm{d}\xi_1A(\xi_1) + \int_{t_0}^{t}\mathrm{d}\xi_1\int_{t_0}^{\xi_1}\mathrm{d}\xi_2A(\xi_1)A(\xi_2) + \cdots\right)\mathbf{x}(0)\quad.[/eqn]This series converges as long as[eqn]\int_{t_0}^{t}\mathrm{d}\xi \rvert\rvert A(\xi)\rvert\rvert < \infty\quad.[/eqn]After a certain time we have [math]\rvert\rvert A(t)\rvert\rvert = 1[/math], which means the series will not converge at infinity (I guess). But if I plot the phase space for the equation I get pic related. The different trajectories account for different initial conditions. The matrix [math]A(t)[/math] here is[eqn]A(t) = \begin{pmatrix}0 & 1\\-e^{-t^2} & 0\end{pmatrix}\quad.[/eqn]So, how can I interpret the phase space knowing that the series diverges at infinity? This is an non autonomous simple harmonic oscillator
>>16145511this is different from your first formulation because it's p mod q instead of k mod n. For instance his counterexample of k=2 and n=3 does not work because it does not have this relationship. It would be 2-2=(6 mod 3)/3 which is correct. So it would be more apt to say [math]k-\left \lfloor{k}\right\rfloor=(p\mod q)/q[/math] when k=p/q
>>16145555or if p=kq, then [math]k-\left\lfloor{k}\right\rfloor=(kq\mod q)/q[/math] where kq mod q is only nonzero whenever k is not an integer
>>16145521>After a certain time we have ∣∣A(t)∣∣=1, which means the series will not converge at infinity (I guess)uh, no? Guy, have you tried evaluating the integral? It's somewhat common. The determinant is \exp^{-t^2}. Set t_0 and t to -\infty and \infty, respectively. That's just the \sqrt{\pi}. The determinant is always positive, so ur integral is always less than \sqrt{\pi}. Looks like it should always converge.
Retard here, please bear with me.I was in a physics class and we were told I = V/R intensity = voltage/resistanceP = I * V power = intensity * voltageE = P * T energy = power * timeThen I remembered: momentum is the force integral with respect to time, and kinda saw something similar here. Then I wroteI = V/R P = ∫ I * dvE = ∫ P * dtE = ∫ ∫ I * dv * dtShe told me this was wrong and idk if I have to rethink my intuition.
Medical science isnt real. Its demons all the way down. Yk mental illnesses connect you to other realms:Autism: spams you with information from all realms. Sometimes makes brain better at handling information. OCD: serves your brain things that could have happened (related dimension). The brain wrongfully thinks this will happen if you dont do something.Shizophrenia: positive: false truths recieved from different dimensions negative: energy sucked into those dimensionsBipolar: alternation between recieving energy from place 7 and getting it taken away from place 4. more on places on /x/ soon.So anyway there are 2 types of "medication": T1: every demon gets in and starves after a certain amount of timeT2: the first demon you eat while not having that demon-species in you gets in, the others get tpd back. The demon eats the now empty "meds" (T2s contain food for the journey) if youre still trying to eat "meds" and if you stop he starves.There are multiple demon types (that each have many species!) that belong in the "meds" catagory:Anti psychotics: (T2)The demon tries to block the connection using magic which has many side effectsComment too long.
