  1. A turtle gets mugged by two snails. When the cops show up, they ask him what happened, and the shaken turtle replies, "I don't know, it all happened so FAST!"

  4. You may have a point, but I at least cited a source for my claim and instead of challenging any specific claims my source made or showing flaws in their methodology, you just dismissed the NYTimes whole cloth. You also didn’t bother to find data in support of your opposition, so I did it for you (though it’s hardly as convincing as you suggest, and obviously differs from one issue to the next and by age group): https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2017/10/05/1-partisan-divides-over-political-values-widen/

  7. That's the signal from the beacon set up to warn interstellar civilizations that they are getting close to Earth. Home to a belligerent, self-absorbed and uncaring civilization 
 of dolphins! ( always blame someone else )

  8. I started wondering how long my neighbors would keep their Trump flags up given he lost the election, then I remembered the Confederate flags...

  10. I‘m sorry, but that doesn‘t make any sense at all. The tensor transformation law applies irrespective of the value of individual components in a particular coordinate basis, so saying that all tensors should be null tensors on account of their transformation law is an entirely meaningless statement. To pick just one random example, the Minkowski tensor evidently transforms as a rank-2 tensor, but it most certainly isn‘t null, regardless of what coordinate basis you choose.

  12. But as the Overton window shows, the entire spectrum is often displaced rightward or leftward, so the “center” is itself relative. Also... The US has been shifting rightward overall these last several decades. Said another way, the left is already closer to the center than the right yet that’s where you focus your criticisms... on the ones already doing what you’re advocating while ignoring those doing the exact opposite. This one example from a study done just last year: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/06/26/opinion/sunday/republican-platform-far-right.html Or, as PT Barnum and basic psychology shows, when you repeat a lie often enough people believe it more.

  13. ! Moderator Note Since there's no science to discuss, and the OP can't be bothered with the rules, this thread is closed.

  14. In case anyone can benefit from this... A medium low cut glaze / polishing compound did wonders. I used Meguiars 205 with a microfiber pad stuck on to my random orbital sander on medium speed and it really came out well I put it on and wiped it about 5x total

  15. Hi guy, Have we created the human!?? Were we witnessed that how the human were created!?? Are we aware about the body of human completely!??? Therefore you should ask us: Do you have any Knowledge that the science can make us live longer or not! I have a series of sources/datas that say YES!

  16. The modern type of science defenetly not. Ancient people lived about as long as we do, and a meager increase in life span is associated not with science, but with comfortable conditions If science could do anything, we would have lived at least longer than a few thousand years ago, but even this is not. Scientific advances are truly zero (or not for the common people)

  17. The semiotics of modern medicine is curious. The serpent is an ancient Indo-European symbol of evil and lies, and the cup was earlier than something like a connection with heavenly gods through fire, fire was usually kindled in the cup (even Olympic), and probably this is where the symbol of the holy grail comes from In Russian, the word "doctor" etymologically comes from the root "lie" and in a literal grammatical interpretation would mean "liar": "vrat"-"vrach" So we can answer: Can Science Make us live shorter? (and worse)

  18. Markus Hanke's Points have been clearly refuted. He could not find errors with my calculations. Something has to be wrong with the conventional theory: Some General Types of Difficulties with the theory of Tensors: The transformation of a rank two covariant tensor has been considered. Then we proceed to consider a diagonal tensor[off diagonal components are zero:A^(mu nu)=0 for mu not equal to nu] to bring out a result that all tensors should be null tensors. A link to the google drive file has been provided.A file has also been attached considering the file attachment facility that has been provided by the forum. https://drive.google.com/file/d/10z63Xidgs3m8p04_C6ZiGh-8Q6KTwPsh/view?usp=sharing Incidentally I tried the Latex with the code button.But I am not getting the correct preview. Example \begin{equation}\bar{A}^{\mu\nu}=\frac{\partial \bar{x}^{\mu}}{\partial x^{\alpha}}\frac {\partial \bar{x}^{\nu}}{\partial x^{\beta}}A^{\alpha \beta}\end {equation} \[{\ bar{A}}^{\mu\nu}=\frac{\partial {\bar{x}}^{\mu}}{\partial x^{\alpha}}\ frac{\partial {\bar{x}}^{\nu}}{\partial x^{\beta}}\] Currently for a long time I am not a frequent user of Latex thanks to the equation bar of MS Word. But I do appreciate,like many others, the application of Latex in various forums.Help is being requested from the forum regarding Latex.
