How do i learn math? I dont even know multiplication or divison, i'm not retarded since i was able to program complex systems at $dayjob but i dont know any math and i wanna go to uni and study electrical engineering but i was a math failure all my life no studying anything

How do you cope with the fact that you will never discover or amount to anything and that everyone who said you were smart and had potential as a kid was lying to you?

If consciousness is irreducible to measurable forms of energy/matter, then what could happen to it upon death?
Would it have to obey the law of conservation of energy, or just annihilate, anyway?

what if instead of colonizing something directly we simply made acquiring high quality sperm a mini-game and made women compete for it and then threw a bunch of women at it and made them compete for impregnation rights?

Capitalism is an asymmetrical system. The asymmetry is tied to the growth parameter and resource availability.
How can something grow perpetually?
This violates thermodynamics
The means of production like factories will eventually be unable to meet demand.
There is not enough energy to go around. And also is there enough resources.?
Milton Friedmans mathematical conjectures only allowed the supply and demand curves to be moderated virtually or abstractly.
How was there not variables for resource availability
Added?
Like hmm gee guys these resources are finite. Why can't they be conserved?
And why did they focus on efficiency instead of conservation?
Yes the capitalist system is more efficient but your not adding more resources to the pile. Your just finding better ways to extract more out of the existing pike.
I think of it like when people roll the toopaste tube to get the crumbs of toothpaste left.
You still have to buy more toothpaste it just makes it last a little longer
I don't understand the logic here. Obviously this was doomed to fail. For these people to be so smart yet they do alot of dumb stuff.
It kinda makes you think. We may not be as smart as we claim to be. Trusting the science hasn't really achieved the progress they promised. Instead we just created more misery.

Janny there is a duplicate /sfg/ again please delete one of the two below the bump limit so all /sfg/ traffic goes there. Im pretty sure the lower post one was baked by the same anon that posted the other 3 extra threads last time you deleted them which was like 2 days ago.

There was a retard here, maybe a half year ago, who disagreed with me about this. My argument was that pockets of local climate change necessarily induce chaos into any prëexisting model.
The retard said no! No! I'm not a retard!
Now that the deprecation of carbon sinks proves me right, and proves you wrong—because you're fucking retarded—are you willing to come back here and admit you were ignorant and dumb?
Or will you keep pretending not to be both ignorant and dumb, and fucking uselessly retarded?

What is the most relevant factor to penis size? Yes I know it's genes but which genes in particular? I've heard that while the father contributes the Y chromosome, the mother actually has alot more control over what the penis ultimately looks like. So does the mother's genes play more of a role for this or is it pretty much just the father's?

Ok /sci/ it's time for another take on quantum gravity
Maybe you can help me reason if there's any merit, if it's actually just Mbranes and I'm too stupid, or highlight any other issues with it.
So here we go.
For starters, instead of trying to create particles for Gravity, we instead start with the fabric of spacetime and we attempt to generate quantum behaviour with it.
To do this, we suppose that at very small scales, the fabric of spacetime is warped, not simply as in the matter of gravity but with a significant number of rosenbridges (and more complex topological objects of some-dimensional space), into a veritable sea of foam - one that is constantly warping, folding and unfolding.
Identifying a singular location in the foam is difficult, because there are multiple noneuclidean paths that approach any given place, that the concept of location doesn't work unless you straighten out the spacetime. Determining a velocity is similarly difficult, and requires the spacetime to be straightened in a different manner.
From a broader perspective, any given position would bounce around in the perspective of one observing, though a sense of locality would be found in that it is more probable to observe a position near to where expected than afar - though the spacetime warping would permit it to appear near anywhere with nonlocality.
At larger scales however, these warpings of spacetime disappear with minimal effects of the folds extending past their immediate region, and general motion and position are preserved.
