🧵 Autism - Does this make sense to you?

>Can be smart, sociable, hyperfixating, but also severely mentally retarded, nonverbal, epileptic, inattentive.
Makes sense for opposites to be subsumed under the same label?
>Symptoms must set in before the age of 3, but symptoms can only manifest later on, for example in adulthood (per DSM-V).
So, how do we know that the symptoms actually set in by the age of 3? Like, if they weren't there back then, how would we know they didn't happen because of something later on?
>If we have found some underlying issue that caused the autism, we still call it autism, just with an additional tag that specifies the diagnosis
Why not simply call it after the actual medical issue?
>You still have autism even if you don't have the symptoms (per DSM-V).
How can you have a disorder defined by behavior when you don't exhibit the behavior that defines the disorder?
>You can mask autism, a neurological disorder or so it's claimed. Can you mask epilepsy, or Alzheimer's? Aren't neurological disorders supposed to be measurable and detectable?
Oh... quite right. I forgot... we don't have the lab tests yet for autism but they're right around the corner, aren't they?
>Autism is inborn and genetic.
What about autism caused by the rubella vaccine, by valproates? Haven't anti-depressants been linked with autism as well? So, clearly... all of autism can't be inborn.
>Autism therapies are effective.
Why is autism considered incurable and life-long then? Why are the screaming tards not improving?
Am I crazy or is autism one of the most stupid concepts I've ever heard of? It clearly makes no sense. The formal definition contradicts itself and the shit has spawned identitarian autists that endlessly fetishize their "neurospiciness". What, exactly, are they hiding?

greetings anons, I've come again to say that Gauge theory is the wrong approach to handling the magnetic vector potential. the 3 (or quantum 4) constraints that make a guage theory valid are neat and helpful, but to declare the model as realistically valid after destroying your magnetic vector potential due to the arbitrariness of A is the wrong approach, instead one should counterbalances divergences in the potentials anti divergences in the permeability and permittivity gradient. and the force explodes out, it twists the medium against it, stress tension from this winding exerts resistance on the potential,
To Lay the theory to test i propose this relatively simply apparatus
Construct tesla patent https://patents.google.com/patent/U
those who appreciate bohm-aharonov will note that, after subjecting the stout copper pipes to the discharge, well be creating a large A potential in the direction of the current in the middle of the pipe.
The skin effect brought by the disruptive dischare will be like a slingshot of Magnetic Vector potential down the pipes, as the current increases in pipe, the current forces away from the inner parts of the tube and onto the surface, increasing the tension of the potential.
Hypothesis,
We assume that Amperes electrodynamics https://isidore.co/misc/Physics%20p
and, when mercury is added to the center of the tube, despite the B field being zero, we see motion perpindicular and proporsional to the A potential when the machine is turned on.
Conversely, a mechanic mercury pump should have the opposite effect.,

Voyager 1 is working again, sort of
https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/nasas
>For the first time since November, NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft is returning usable data about the health and status of its onboard engineering systems. The next step is to enable the spacecraft to begin returning science data again. The probe and its twin, Voyager 2, are the only spacecraft to ever fly in interstellar space (the space between stars).
>The team discovered that a single chip responsible for storing a portion of the FDS memory — including some of the FDS computer’s software code — isn’t working. The loss of that code rendered the science and engineering data unusable. Unable to repair the chip, the team decided to place the affected code elsewhere in the FDS memory. But no single location is large enough to hold the section of code in its entirety.
>So they devised a plan to divide the affected code into sections and store those sections in different places in the FDS. To make this plan work, they also needed to adjust those code sections to ensure, for example, that they all still function as a whole. Any references to the location of that code in other parts of the FDS memory needed to be updated as well.
Most of the team look too old to know how a computer works. Maybe that's why they broke it to begin with.

I'm retarded. So it's often said that the big bang was 13.7 billion years ago, but does that make sense under relativity? I mean, doesn't the time since the big bang depend on your frame of reference, due to time dilation? Or am I wrong? Like, saying the universe is x years old seems to imply that every part of the universe is currently that old, but I'm told that kind of simultaneity doesn't exist. So are we just describing how old it is from our frame of reference? Or do most "things" in the universe share that reference frame? This is not a creationism post btw.

🧵 Academic books on Apiculture?
Anonymous at Sun, 28 Apr 2024 18:55:10 UTC No. 16150284
A friend of mine took up beekeeping as a hobby. I wanted to send a book on it as a gift, but so far all Amazon, piratebay and z-lib spit out are at best pop-sci books on beekeeping.
Does /sci/ know of any genuinely good books on apiculture with a more academic slant?

What makes schizophrenic people draw shit like this? All I got from looking it up was it’s a chemical imbalance in the brain that messes up your dopamine receptors but how does that translate to the weirdly specific recurring symptoms like drawing shapes and thinking the government is hunting you down because you’re the new Jesus? Have they done much research into this?

I hate the constant lecturing about morality and ethics in stem. Why should I have to have my experiments approved by some council of roasties to say that the animals and subjects are treated in some random deemed "ethical" manner. the only thing that should matter is the data is replicable in the end.
