  1. Yeah, Like how we view a rock as being non-sapient. To them, our makeup may not be complex enough to be considered more than just that. They may have a limit as to what they classify as being....whatever they define as being intelligent. If they even define anything at all. Classification is the result of currently known biological organisms brain defining things. What if, physically and chemically, there make up is of a completely different "chemical mechanism." Meaning that particles which form our unique sequences of biological life may be totally different from there's. Like how there is more than one potential LUCA but smaller. There may be more than a single type of intelligence we cannot even fathom, or describe for that matter.
  2. After reading @Moontanmans post about the alien documentary "The Phenomenon" which I believe was from another thread it got me thinking. If a complex alien life did exist, why would they not interact with us? What reasoning would they have to not say "hey, here we are. We exist." And I believe that a potential idea is that of for scientific analysis and discovery. When humans who have more advanced understandings of things discover and interact with humans who, in many cases, have less formalized structures they tend to do so from a distance. Not directly interacting in order to obtain more knowledge from a non-interactive stance which could influence the behaviors of the civilization being observed. If "aliens" or "complex intelligent life outside of earth" were find us and understand us, I believe that it would be from this standpoint. As an observer only.
  3. I am slightly confused about what you are asking here. The reason I say this is because all of the source code is provided in the github link on the reference that you sourced. In the github it links to a jupyter notebook which shows the model.
  4. Mine came from me wanting to create a youtube channel about 2 years ago pretaining to reasoning about world events. And drawng "A Line" between the real and imaginary. Did not go so well and I wanted to...well Idk, but here I am.
  5. Yeah its very weird. Like before when I felt something similar to this I was taking antidepresents. Which I am sure I ranted about something similar to this before. But now it feels for natural. More organic. Like I am entering into a new epoch of my life and that I can learn so many new possibilities which can help me so much. Like with computer science for example. I feel as though I have become so complacent about understanding it. Almost like I create some boundary for myself to stop at and be "satisfied" with. Now its like "Oh, well there is actually an infinite number of things to learn and I have be purposefully stagnating and, excuse my language, retarding myself from advancing further. Like I was my own boundary. Like before this internship I thought I new everything about Neural Networks. Turns out, I was being a butt to myself for assuming so, because that "ego" was the thing that was holding me back. The problem is that I keep feeling that ego trying to pull me back in. Like I have to catch myself from preventing myself from learning and getting into a kind of "layman's trap." Being lazy and not wanting to better both myself and my understanding for the world. Hopefully that all makes sense. I recently purchased brilliant this morning and will be trying kahn academy each day to see if I can continuously challenge myself and prevent the ego from taking its ugly holds back.

I think it makes things a WHOOOOOOLE lot easier. Like, before I was like, "dang, how am I gonna pass my classes." Now I am like," brah....study. And have fun with it." The answer just seems so obvious now. With learning....I can understanding exactly what needs to be done and then I can just...do it. OOP, machine learning, heck chemistry, physics, biology. All things so just seem like I actually have a "chance" to begin exploring them. Sure they were there in the past for me to, but I was, and still slightly am, complacent to learn them. Just a little less so now. I wanna challenge myself now to learn as much as I can so I can create as much as I can so I can do as much as I can. .....I'll take what I can get I guess. From life that is
  6. Well dang, that's both reassuring and depressing.
  7. For the first time in a long time I finally felt the breath of fresh air of truely wanting to learn. I felt it during my internship learning about deep learning and AI this summer. It feels so good that I never wanna go back to not wanting to learn. What advice can yall given to help me stop going back?
  8. If I were to pass a cylindrical magnet through a solenoid, what would the induced current and voltage look like if I were to connect the two wires forming the solenoid. Also, how would I calculate this based on the magnetics magnetic field strength, volume and mass of the magnet, number of windings of the solenoid, length of the solenoid, and area of the solenoid and velocity that the bar magnet is traveling through? Creating a single relational equation.
  9. So it's been a minute and I was reminded of this by a fellow forum member reposting about it. How much progress have I made you might ask? Literally none, This problem is a fuuuuuuuuuuuudge ton more difficult than I originally imagined. I am going to keep try, but its gonna be a while.
  10. I am just now learning about now learning about how the universe formed, like about gold and what not and dudes and dudeets. Its fucking crazy, there are elements in me from a fucking star explosion that occured billions of billions of years ago. I tell ya, if you learn science from the right source it feels like everything just opens up! Like the universe becomes more and more knowable. Before I had to be on medication to see this amount of beauty. This is epic!

      I am not informed on what dudeets are, or their role in the early universe or stellar formation, but it does sound pretty epic!  Well-known cosmologist Neil Young apparently wrote a song on this topic.

      can you send a link to it? Been looking on YouTube but have not found it yet.

      also sorry about that, dudes and dudets. The female version of the dude.

  11. "You are an observer and describer of a system. Reasoning comes from the previous observations of a given system, period. You can make assumptions about the system, but those assumptions are not truths. Your reasoning is not some "golden apple" that defines truth. It is a guidance towards what truth may be associative to. You cannot tell an apple to fall from a tree, it either does or it does not and whatever means or methodologies or processes in which it does so is not within your control as a truthful determiner. At that point your no longer a scientist but an engineer."

    This is a quote I came up with in which I attempt to understand and convey some common pitfalls of some poorly reasoned arguments. If it does not seem correct please correct and I will improve upon it using suggestions.

     

  12. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!

  13. How complex are you wanting to make this? Because if it is just a simple web application for school then you do not really need to be too grandiose with it.
  14. there was a typo in my post so I'm gonna make the correction here. "alone" not "along"
  15. Ah man then you should learn LaTex. You can visualize all the math with it
  16. Unless you somehow incorporate some computer I do not see how, using my currently limited knowledge, you can detect multiple different objects using a single impedance along. And even with that you would require positional data. Of course I could be wrong. An analogy would be that you can determine 1+2+3+4 = 10, but you can not determine 10 = 1+2+3+4 if you only have 10 as the value. You can only guess at it. And because you are using only a single impedance value then it would be much more difficult to determine positional values. Now this is just a super wrong guess so do not take my word for it, but you could possible...maybe....use Fourier Transform in some manner to derive separate signals. However I know very little about Fourier transform so I cannot say.
  17. oh my gosh, I feel so stupid. I just got if,then statements.

    I was thinking about it and then realized that it is like a machine in which the p goes in and the q comes out and if the output is false then the entire statement is false because p and q have to both be true.

    Also the p is like the hypothesis and q is like the conclusion. if the hypothesis is true then the conclusion will always to true. That's like the base line. And then the if,then statement is like the comparison to that said baseline to determine if the overall statement is true or not.

    🤦‍♂️

     

  18. No, you did not. Rediscovered just the wheel. Widely known and used even by CPU engineers to save space in the CPU registers.. Really huh, I thought I discovered something ground breaking there. It just goes to show that by going through and presenting your ideas to others it will allow for an honest critique of your work and updating my previous falsely held beliefs. I honestly thought I had something there for a second, could have saved a lot of time just posting the idea when I had it. Self Reflection: The above section is very misleading in which it states that I had the idea the other day when in fact I had the idea about a month ago and have been working on it on and off sense. I would not say that I put to much effort into it, however it is enough to justify a little bit of anger at myself for not asking about the idea before hand. I want to apologize for the deception on my part. My whole topic starter kind of also feels very "showey" or giving the impression that it is world changing thing. That was not intentional and was probably my ego slightly showing along with me being impatient when writing it up. I will try and work on that the next time I have an idea and want to share it with others on this forum. The reason that I am sharing this is to self reflect on my current actions so that I can better improve on my later posts along with trying to become better at understanding different things. Also I want to have a sort of something that I can go back to and view for future reflection.
  19. So the other day I was working on a program and figured out how I could increase the storage capacity of an integer inside of a variable. The formula is as following New_Space = Old_Space + Value_of_Integer*Base_Being_Used^Position_of_integer Example: Old_Space = 1,000,000 Value_of_Integer = 12 Base_Being_Used = 100 Position_of_integer = 1 New_Space = 1,000,000 + 12*100^1 New_Space = 1,012,000 ** The Above would have 2 integer values with max length of 99 able to be store in a single integer. Notes: - The number of positional values for the Space (Old/New) is equal to the Base being used. So if the base is 100 and the space is 1,000,000 then the space has 2 positions that can be used. - The integer as a maximum value limit before going outside of its given "cell" equal to the size of the base. - When the maximum size of the integer increases, the number of positions of the integer decreases. Possible use cases: If you were to expand the maximum base size then you will be able to increase the maximum number of potential positions for the integer as well as increasing the maximum size of the integer.
  20. Reason 1) I get the feeling that one of the biggest reasons why so many people challenge the sciences in its validity is due in part to them believing that it is some giant enemy in which conflicts with there ideals and beliefs and they feel as though they are obligated to go against this "paradigm."

    Reason 2)Also another reason may be that they wish to be "on top" of the pyramid so to speak. In which they want to be the next einstein or dirac. In the same vein as a pop star.

    Reason 3) Or there is also the conventional reason in which they are just curious about the subject manner and want to dig deeper into it to gain a more of an understanding.

    Because I like labels I will define each reason for easier representation.

    Reason 1) The Belief Upenders

    Reason 2) The Stars Chasers

    Reason 3) The Curiously Minded

  21. The variation of different persons is not defined by artificial boundaries set by people. Whereas they are dependent on environmental and other factors. Lines which have been drawn in the sand does not change much except for the persons ego about the differences.
  22. @Dr.Zack Are you sharing this because you are interested in the subject of earths curvature and wanted to discuss you findings on a means of finding it or are you placing into question the fact that the earth has a curve and is overall not flat?
  23. Maybe the universe is still very young and it takes a while for complex intelligent life to form in analogous "pockets" of it.
  24. I am good, so far everything has been a good review of what I have learned when I was taking EE classes in uni. It also helps because I did poorly in those classes because of reasons and you explaining it in this step by step manner really clears things up. I was unaware that four terminal networks could be used to model a large amount of circuit elements. Also for better reference of my current EE knowledge I am good up until amplifiers and transistors. Also I have to go back over Thevinen and Norton circuits. Hopefully that helps.
