I've recently taken an interest in Bermuda and how it seems to have formed almost unlike any other island in the world.
It's a formerly volcanic Island chain, but the actual island itself is made out of soft sedimentary aeolian Limestone. It's ringed by reef systems but only the southern end of the caldera has any land- not quite an atoll but sort of a pseudo atoll.
The sand dunes that made the island build up over the past million years are extremely well preserved, so much that you can see every individual layer that built up over the years.
I don't have much to do right now, so I'm gonna be dumping some pics that I've saved. If any Anons have questions about the island and it's formation I'm all ears for the next few hours.
Why does the brain flip the eye's images "right side up"?
If your vision were never flipped right side up, and you were born into the world with the image never being right side up, then the "upside down" image would be just as intuitive as "right side up" image is for us, wouldn't it?
I'm 24 years old and I'm one exam away from finishing my master's degree in computer engineering and I realize that if in these 5 years I had done a practical specialization course in a certain field and then gone to work, now I would have much more experience, skills and a better resume. Instead all I have done in these 5 years is to learn theoretical notions that I have already forgotten, without acquiring practical knowledge. I've taken many exams on different topics, but all on a theoretical level and now I find myself unable to do anything on a practical level.
Hey /sci/,
what amount of masturbatiln would be 'optimal' for the average guy? Is it better to use imagination than watching porn? Maybe using a picture?
Heared that testosterone peaks after ~10 days, so about once a week seems like a good timeframe.
You know what? I've decided that "beauty" is the enemy of mathematics. Mathematicians go on and on about beauty and make glacially slow progress. These are connected.
Try to get a nerd to even part with pi in favour of tao and they can't give you a good reason, but I recon they're just stuck on admiring the booooooty of math and probably have Euler's identity in the back of their misfiring brain.
I happen to find mathematics beautiful. But you don't change things that you're mainly looking at as boooootie . If you're looking at a painting and being swept up in the boooooty you're most likely not approaching the painting as a puzzle. Mathematics, if anything, should be something you want to rip apart. It should be something that gets you pumped up and makes the blood vessels in your upper forehead bulge. You shouldn't give two fucks about "boootiful" already existing mathematics. You should be finding out where it came from in order to conquer new math, or you should be out past the border of math wrestling with new problems.
I don't want to hear people rambling about bbbbbboooooootttty
>Correlation does not equal causation
Why do people say this shit? I guess nothing is caused by anything, right? All entities act according to however they want.
Potential Next-Generation Radiological Attack Scenario: Encapsulation of Radioactive Graphite Nanoparticles Within Microparticle Lead Spheroids with Elemental Sodium/Aluminium/Iron Oxide Shell, Hygric Trigger
I am disclosing this information publicly in the hopes that the U.S. and other governments begin to take seriously the potential for a new style of radiological attack to be employed by sophisticated state actors with connection to terrorist organizations. What I am about to share with you has gone ignored by my superiors within a compartment of the Department of Energy tasked with gaming out potential future attack scenarios so they may be anticipated. At the present, our primary tool to detect radioactive materials being shipped into an area are Geiger counters. We have experimental muon detectors capable of measuring the extent to which ultra-heavy elements can change the trajectory of downward-oriented muons generated from high-energy collisions in the ionosphere, but they are still in the experimental phase and have not been mass-produced. I also believe they would be useless in the attack scenario I am about to describe.
The most logical method of executing a radiological attack for a hypothetical enemy would be, considering our newfound ability to detect shielded ultra-heavy elements would be to use radioactive graphite encapsulated within a multi-layered spheroid. The outermost layer would be a water-reactive layer of elemental sodium that serves as a trigger for the next layer, which would be a mix of thermitic materials aluminium and iron oxide of the finest granularity possible.
