Ways of making money

The most scientific way out of economic slavery

My dream has always been to invent something, to create something new and to make humanity progress. I have never really been interested in money but we live in difficult times, and money is scarce, I don't have a job and I don't want to go back to live with my parents. So I invite /sci/ to tell me what are your ways out of this capitalist compromise? Passive income speaking and other ways to make money

Africans were advanced mathematicians

No.14117087 ViewReplyOriginalReport
An African hunter-gatherer wants to know if she's killed enough meat to feed her family. Someone made dull by self-domestication, like a European or an Asian, might be tempted to count the kills. But the hunter-gatherer is more intelligent. She understands that numbers are actually very complex, and dealing with them rigorously requires a fair amount of work. She could do that, if she wanted. After all, she solves a complex system of differential equations in her head each time she aims her bow or spear at a rabbit or deer. But such complexity is not necessary for a simple task like this. Rather, she simply pairs her kills and her tribe-members: "This rabbit is for LaToya, this one is for Breonna, this one for Shaniqua...". And so, through both her mental and physical prowess, she secures a healthy meal for her family. Little does she know that white male mathematicians would later colonize her pairing idea and call it the bijection.h

I don't women, I just don't think they should be in male spaces. They should be birthing more Newtons and Maxwells.

Is 3D an intrinsic (spatial) dimensionality of our world or it is just a convention? Is it a function of our eyes or our brain or just a mathematical model? Just because something has length/width/depth doesn't mean dimensions even exist outside of our imagination, does it? Why can't we call it "continuous dimensions"?

Why does he think we need population growth when science agrees we need opposite?

We’ve known for a long LONG time we need population control as we’re growing uncontrollably and at orders of magnitude unsustainably since the industrial revolution
