Science that supports right-wing ideals will get less funding and science that supports left-wing ideals will get more. The vast majority of researchers will be unaffected, since there are relatively few fields that have any significant political charge. Although Democrats like to tout themselves as "the party of Science™," they're really no better that Republicans.

Statistics. Nothing gives researchers, and readers of their papers, delusions of omniscience like exacting treatment of data sets that leave out parameters found to be crucial later on, usually by someone else who doesn't abuse it as a crutch for making inferences.

On the plus side he won't have to deal with all the baggage and convoluted autism NASA has accumulated. I doubt he won't be part of space exploration or possibly even rocketry in the future after how well he did with how little he had available.

Ah interesting. I'm not in the US so I didn't know it's like that over there.
Although I should have guessed. I know someone who went to Cornell and then half-way through decided not to go back because they hated how everyone in the US (especially their fellow uni students/friends) were so political and radical about everything.
You know people have a fucked up level of SJW-isms when even an Asian woman thinks it's over-the-top.

Attractive women have 0 reasons to go to grad school

>>12609641
Imo, most of the female TA's I've had in my engineering and math courses were probably prettier in their undergrad. I think it's just due to the general stress and the lack of time that comes with doing grad studies. When you're studying 8 hours a day plus doing TA/RA work another 2 to 3 hours, it doesn't leave a lot of time to do stuff that's superfluous. Plus I remember in my undergrad how little of a fuck I gave about my appearance when shit got busy. I can imagine it being worse in grad school.

I guess it depends on your program. I'm in a history phd and there are few pretty girls in some other humanities departments that I interact with. None really in history, nor philosophy. Definitely not in stem. Male oriented subjects like stem, history, philosophy barely attracts woman, lowering the chance of a good looking female finding her way in that environment

Im gona try to make this one i just have to figure out how to properly angle my patterns and i think i should be fine
will post results if this thread is gona be alive

Thank you for your input everyone :)

This particular pattern seems constructible if you start from a trucated icosahedron, then triangulate all the faces.

Got it down, made a truncated icosahedron and im gona go around and add rings where i need and pattern them around. its gona take a bit but it will get the job done

The idea is you should leave scientific deduction to experts and blindly trust them. Basically telling people they are too stupid to figure things out on their own.

>Which we don't fully understand. We don't even have a working theory of quantum gravity.
That ambiguity cuts both ways. We might be able to improve our tech geometrically over the next 10,000 years, with new physics letting us do crazy shit, or we might start hitting the limits of what is physically possible in less than a century. If the latter is true, then there is no reason to assume aliens would be some incomprehensible, Lovecraftian entities floating beyond the ken of mere mortals. I think there's ample room to hope for fantastic technological advancement, but it will never reach the point of incomprehensible magic.
>Anyhow, my mention of gods wasn't literal, it was just a way of getting you to understand the scale of informational difference better, but you seem to have heard that many times given your bitter response.
I'm not bitter about it, but it's part of a broader trend of occult-izing science and technology as something only a select group of wizards can understand. This mentality locks people out of the field because, if they initially have trouble understanding the concepts, they immediately assume they are not among the chosen few born to wield science powers. It encourages that masturbatory faith in science, since only science prophets can grasp and communicate the Truth to, as another poster said, our primitive monkey brains. In reality, science is a system that makes the universe readily comprehensible to everyone who puts in enough time and effort. It doesn't matter if it's a quasar at the edge of our light cone, life that evolved in the stratosphere of a gas giant, or a baseball bunted on a rainy day, we--you, me, anyone--can determine the behavior that's possible, predict the behavior that's likely, and extrapolate how these systems will develop on timescales of a few seconds to billions of years, with high accuracy.

So nice of the nazis to build all those nice wooden coffins to burn them in individually, let the oven cool down, sweep their remains into a nice urn, then clean the oven completely to prevent mixing of ashes, then repeat the process.
Those nazis sure were swell fellas very respectful of the dead.

Where does this myth come from that x86 is horrible. Especially when you then suggest avr as a better arch. x86 is not bad to program, x86 is nice to program, far better than fucking avr trash. x86 encoding is a disaster, but you do not see that, that is a problem for the assembler, not you.

>>12609256
terrible advice. you can look up the amtel data sheets and completely bypass arduino libraries if you need to. ultimately an arduino is a conveniently mounted microcontroller wired up with a USB port to make loading programs easy.

I have a college course where they are teaching about the basic microprocessors

>>12610303
Anon there are plenty of these exist before arduino. Basically every chip has a dev board and many are in the same or better form factor then an arduino only reason people use the arduino is for the bloated libraries.(around same cost too) What happens when a beginner wants to program their arduino they type “how to make arduino do...” they will be given a library and they just import library and boom it’s done. You learn literally nothing. If you force them to bitflip they will learn. Technically if you are a super beginner and never programmed ever before in your life then technically you will learn some basic scripting skills.
