Science thread Anonymous 115805[Reply]

Since there's too much talk about moids in our boards, I decided that I should do my part and contribute something non-moid related. So I'm making this thread about science, maths are included as well of course. I personally think that the soft sciences are actually closer to the humanities than to the hard sciences, but in the spirit of avoiding a flame war, I'll try to avoid this point as much as I can from now on.

You can ask questions and discuss stuff about science here, I'll try to answer whatever I can and perhaps attempt to guide posters in the right direction if I'm not familiar with the topic. I'm a physicist by training but I have a basic understanding of general chemistry, geology and biology as well. I know the most about astrophysics and meteorology/climate stuff, I'm OK at mechanics, thermodynamics and quantum physics and not so great at electromagnetism, relativity and maths in general (as in, compared to a mathematician, for a physicist I'm average at maths). Sorry if that came off as a bit pedantic, I just wanted to let you know the kind of stuff I'm more likely to give good answers to.

So yeah, ask away!

Guy makes a semiconductor lab in a shed and makes a RAM.

Okay I thought this was one of those funny haha gimmick videos at first, but the more I watched the more impressive it became. Hell I haven't heard this many new terms in a year. This guy (or a group of them) built a lab for semiconductors. Let's pretend we want to replicate this process and thus we need to extract as much info as possible. Not only he needed the knowledge for electronics, but also dyi building, airflow engineering, prob chemistry, engineering the actual equipment…

First, build the environment.
The shed is separated into the gowning area and the cleanroom area. It is imperative that the cleanroom stays as clean as possible, as single speck of dust can ruin a chip.
1) The shed is insulated (there's a lot of information on cleanroom insulation online),
2) some framing is added so we can set a cleanroom grade HEPA filter with an air intake filter just under the roof. I cannot tell which filters he got from the video.
3) A dedicated electrical circuit is installed. No information in the video on the specifics.
4) Heating and cooling with a mini split. (Would be nice to specify which role heating and cooling plays)
5) The room is divided and now every space has to be sealed. (?) Instead of using expensive plastic, he uses flame-resistant drywall with a water-based epoxy to create a smooth particle-free surface. The attic space above is also sealed and controlled for airflow.
Now, the airflow part is very important (1st pic) the cleanroom is also kept at a positive pressure (how?) to keep the contamination from coming in. Massive HEPA filter scrubs the air and recycles it a few hundreds per hour. (because the room volume is small)

After all's said and done, a particle counter is brought to the cleanroom for testing. It shows 40 particles/40ft^3 in the middle, and sub-100 at the edge of the room. This makes it a class 100 cleanroom, which OP claims is on the level of Samsung, Intel, TSMC.

>Phones are why nobody have kids anymore
I doubt it. I would say the cost of life, in particular housing cost are the major factor. It cost 3 time more hours of work for us to buy a home than it did for our parents.
The culture is a big thing as well. When every media tell you that it's cool and rebel to not have kids, obviously it play a role.

The quality of our social interactions is also a factor but screens are only one of the cause of that.

Do you have a mind's eye? Anonymous 325781[Reply]

ever since i first learnt about aphantasia vs hyperphantasia, i've been really curious about it
i've wanted to pry further into all the various ways in which people experience their inner-worlds; how their senses feel, how these differences affect loving, learning, sleeping, etc. it's not a topic that was brought up to me within a real interaction, nor was it something i questioned on my own, and it makes me think about just how many other idiosyncrasies have the potential to be hugely impactful, but often overlooked or under noticed. the unspoken gaps between human personalities. my family & friends haven't been that interested in discussing it in detail, probably because i'm not pushy enough (or it's boring), so i'm dropping these questions here out of curiosity

>do you see images in your head? pictures, smells, sounds? can you manipulate the imagery, conjure things at will, distract yourself? is it subtle, or a strong landscape of colours and forms?

>do you literally see shapes when you close your eyes, as if they're there but still not really, or is it simply black behind the eyelids, but your mind remains envisioning things?
>if you don't see images (aphantasia), do you still dream?
>can you re-experience memories in high detail, almost as if you're reliving the moment?
>do you see things when you read?
>do you have one or two senses, but not others? fe you can hear things, but not see or touch?
>do you have an internal monologue? constantly, infrequently? or do you have to force it? is it audible, or just vaguely there
>have you heard of this topic before, or questioned it on your own?
>if you have hyperphantasia, do you like it?

This image is an entirely inaccurate description of how it feels to visualise images, especially for the literal-minded (such as those with a certain disorder common on imageboards). Also, it seems like a great way to totally mislead aphantasiacs about the experience of mental imaging and lead them to believe that others literally create hallucinations lucid-dream style.
I don't necessarily blame the artist for this just because it is a difficult thing by nature to translate into a real image, but I don't think this is the only possible way either.
If you interpret the scale as metaphorical, then I am something like a 2. Decent but not, like, eidetic, which is what I guess 1 is supposed to represent.

The minds eye specifically is real. But this specific op image sparked a bunch of bro science retarded hierarchy shit just like the npc inner dialogue meme.
Which is to say when I close my eyes I do see up to 5 with minds eye but up to 2 with my literal eyes.

Can you imagine spending so much time out of your life stressing over weight? What a sad existence

Anonymous 325758

once, it was harder to gain weight, so it was seen as desirable. now, it's easier to gain weight because intensive workout routines require time, a good diet which can be expensive, and the right circumstances overall with work + other life commitments. nit-picking your body to achieve all of the listed things is a much more accessible fixation for women with money, intensified by access to a surgeon and liposuction. so, it's rarer. it becomes in fashion, because having a good enough situation to workout and eat well is a sign of wealth. the rich like to do anything that makes them distinct from the poor. that's why "homely" women, lower class, are depicted as fatter and less refined in film stereotypes, more sunken in. wider, larger tits. excessive, like they have no finetuning or self control. curvy women are associated with being bangmaids too.
it's a general lack of proper appreciation for the real female form basically. people want "better" versions, not real life

Social media used to be just who you followed and that's it. Maybe you'd be suggested friends of friends but generally you only saw what you subscribed to. Uploading photos was already slow, not to mention videos, so people expressed themselves differently and having a lot of photos of yourself on your profile was weird. Nowadays seeing people upload videos about random topics and inserting their faces at any cost is so strange to me. Even on youtube you couldn't upload videos longer than a few minutes. So the content was overall more light-hearted and random.
Prior to social media, people just had their own websites and you had to manually visit them one by one and leave comments in a guest book. So basically the concept of virality was not really there. If you had a few thousand followers that was already a LOT.

The internet was a specific place you went to and left. A lot of people just had 1 family computer they shared and took turns using and in my early days you even had to pay per minute of internet access. Without smartphone internet, it was much easier to leave the internet behind and do other stuff and it was harder to get addicted. People couldn't take photos of you at school or in the street because rarely did anyone bring a digital camera with them. Editing photos was hard and required special software and skills so the photos you saw were either way more authentic or they were shooped to such hilarious degrees you could tell from a mile away. Automatic filters or even video filters did simply not exist. Privacy was a much bigger concern, I already mentioned that people had much fewer photos of themselves online, but before Facebook it was unimaginable to put your full government name on the internet. So you'd have your nickname and an avatar and the large-scale exposure and harassment that's normal now was basically impossible.

i find myself questioning what it's like for other people to inhabit their own heads, sometimes. not even the brain, not primarily, but the head. the feeling of focusing attention inside of it. because i don't really feel "in" my brain, but it's the only spot i can approximate myself being. i feel this somethingness, but this nothingness
how does life happen and come into other people? as in how it's processed. i'm nosey to know how far people go with integrating information into themselves, too, because nothing seems to permeate throughout me as it comes in. i rarely feel "one with" my crying, for example. i assume i'm indifferent overall
do people sense their head area as fuzzy? vague, foggy, rounded? or sharp, driven by clarity, jumpy, loud, listening? my head seems casual, low
i'm spitting nonsense atp but, i want to keep going. how many people have their attention, themselves, mostly in their hands? i think i'm somewhere at the crown of my skull, then i sense just above my glabella and onto my forehead. around that area
is existing inside ones own body vastly different for everyone, or generally similar? you'd imagine most people are in the top of their body, but what if someone's in their chest
