How do I use math to get laid?
Anonymous
>>14245315 You're using math as the means to acquire a stable career. You use the career to get money. You directly use the money and resources to get laid. If I use my wallet to buy a gun and use the gun to kill someone, my wallet was not what enabled me to kill. The gun was. Dumbass.

My friend told me about "superprimes", prime numbers that cannot be divided by 1 or themselves. Apparently only a few of them have been researched, notably one between 6 and 7.

Any tips on how to dea with learning when there is just too much stuff available? I find it impossible to prioritize, and end up going only very shallow before another interesting thing pops up.

You guys probably aren't aware of the situation in math and theoretical physics, but there are a lot of good people that know much more than your average professor at a shitty state college that get turned away. Most grad students do not get to be postdocs and most postdocs do not get to be professors, but the level of the average postdoc in theoretical high energy physics (which is the field I am aware of) is absurdly high, and these people are writing at least a few original research papers each year.
The shitty state colleges apparently prefer to hire experimentalists and education majors like the tool in the OP post because they believe they can connect with undergrads more. I would like to see more government funded research institutes (available only to Americans say). Or have the culture at teaching colleges change so they hire more theorists.

>>14241193 The right wing has become populist and the left wing elitist, you see shit like the union leadership making a statement in favor of black gay marriage while the rank and file act extremely problematically.
It's a very disturbing state of affairs because the right wing doesn't actually care about the masses but is willing to pretend to, and the left wing wishes that they cared about the masses but simply cannot love them. I miss the days of left wing labour parties being led by the 6th son of a coal miner.

>>14241954 I refused to wear glasses until I was 16 and it turned out my myopia had made me blind as shit. The day I put them on completely changed me. I had never worn glasses before that.
I don't understand how you can claim with a straight face glasses cause the disease they're made to rectify. This is a non-starter, nobody would wear them if they didn't need them to see.

>>14245324 Did you develop myopia by spending too much time indoor at close-up distance?
It's not necessarily just one factor that's causing the problem. There are also studies about the correlation of outdoor lighting vs indoor and myopia progression. The incorrect use of lenses, however, has been proven by many studies to be a possible factor.
There's also reported loss of vision when spending too much time while staring at blurry imagery without being able to clear it properly.
And yet, some people do see improvement by using the correct lenses and retraining the accomodative system to engage in clearing slightl out of focus imagery.
It's not a simple matter.

of course myopia is heavily genetic but there are clearly some other factors people should consider too

My brother died a few weeks ago in a traffic accident and I am still trying to cope. I was a liberal arts guy so I dont know shit about actual science and got interested in theoretical physics. I googled some theories like the multiverse, and the universe being infinite, which made me think that his consciousness might exist at some form somewhere.

>>14244193 I don't think there's an afterlife and I'm fine with that. Life kind of sucks and the dead at least aren't dealing with its bullshit anymore. Your brother may be gone but the impact he's made on the world will remain. A part of him exists in your memories and all the ways he shaped your life. The good thing about spirituality is that it's non-falsifiable. Believe whatever makes you feel better, don't listen to naysayers.

>>14244193 >Are there truly any other scientific arguments or theories which could prove an afterlife ? No. Also all that multiverse shit is unscientific too. Only the word of Jesus Christ and the church fathers can answer that question. Go read it. If you are against religion, you must realise that multiverse et al. is a modern religion. You should read the relevant passages of Descartes work. Both science and religion are philosophy, they concern different things. Science informs us about the physical world we can see with our eyes and religion informs us about the spiritual we can't sense with our 5 senses (this might remind you of something like a multiverse you can't see or do experiments on)
