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!

The USA is a bankrupt warmongering police state, but nothing will change because Americans think everything is just fine.

>>325210>Phones are why nobody have kids anymoreI 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.

I wish we could debug the human brain. That would be so cool and scifi.

When the USA was a free country, tyranny was limited because the US could take the moral high ground and stand up for freedom.
Now there is no limit to tyranny.
The virus was just a test run.
There is no limit to tyranny now because no one will call out abuses and there is no place to escape to.
