The official SCIENCE nerd/geek thread

For those of us who actually like learning about shit, love looking at graphs and get stoked on images like these

I'm including math too.

A constant function and e^x are walking on Broadway. Then suddenly the constant function sees a differential operator approaching and runs away. So e^x follows him and asks why the hurry. "Well, you see, there's this differential operator coming this way, and when we meet, he'll differentiate me and nothing will be left of me...!" "Ah," says e^x, "he won't bother ME, I'm e to the x!" and he walks on. Of course he meets the differential operator after a short distance.

e^x: "Hi, I'm e^x"

diff.op.: "Hi, I'm d/dy"

lolol

yeah. did you not look at them? he was like "these give me raging hard on" and it was like the heat signature of the earth, and just random space picture and whatnot. that isn't "official science thread" worthy. What .marc posted, however, is.
 
The heat signature of the Earth? Thats an image of background microwave radiation- one of the most important peaces of evidence supporting the Big Bang Theory. I'd say its pretty worthy.
 
so resonance (upper level classical mechanics) and fractals (math) is worthy of the science thread but bose-einstein condensates, a map of our galaxy, and the cosmic microwave radiation background are not?

clearly you are an authority here though if you think that is what the heat signature of the earth would look like haha. (which also would be thready worthy). My guess is you would clearly see the oceans and continents and it would be hottest around the tropics. will google now out of interest.
 
Is the first one a graph for BE condensates? Reminds me of...http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/news/2004/jan/28/fermionic-condensate-makes-its-debut?

Also appreciate the WMAP love, haha.

My cell phone lock code is 8128, I really love numbers as a hobby. I'm big into cryptanalysis too. I also love Max Tegmark, the base 12 number system, theories/ math about the early universe, tycho brahe, my social security number is prime, I'm really involved in the open source/maker movement, and I enjoy long walks on the beach.

ahhh! nerds everywhere! i'm outta here...gotta go smoke some weed.

jk....numbers guy here. i have a strange ability to remember numbers, but am fucking terrible with names.
 
I put that batman equation in my graphing calc and it actually works! You have to divide up the equations into different parts and layers cuz it won't work being all punched in at once. At least it didn't work for me that way.
 
haha. anybody who wants to learn would be doing it instead of liking cool videos and photos on facebook.

i.e. my mcat is next thursday.

ALSO EAST COAST NS'ERS RIGHT MEOW, NASA SHUTTLE GOING UP AT 11:20 OR SO out of virginia! so look south and up or so and you might see it. I already figured out the heading i need to be looking in.

Meat is a perfect example of science of how energy gets passed through a food chain. The most energy is in the producer, then less and less energy gets passed to the top predator of the food chain.

Also, beef...it's what for dinner.

i saw the satellite go up, like a couple seconds after launch i could see it out my window. I saw it up until the first stage separation and then it disappeared a little into the second stage.
 
yeah, exactly.

chicken, my point was that it looks like you searched "science" into google images and took whatever first popped up. Then you read a little about them. I wasn't trying to be specific just trying to get my point across lol.

don't just point random pictures of data that don't mean shit. it makes you look like fool.

but for real, Chemistry is the fucking shit and I could do Titration all day. that's my contribution. at least i'm honest
 
I'm 2 semesters from a chem degree... So I enjoy science.

I'm gonna start helping my professor redesign an EEM fluoro spectrometer. We're gonna redo the table top unit, then see if we can stuff it in a tube and throw it in a lake. Not even kidding, they used to have something similar operating in a lake. But the instrument needs to be redesigned, then recalibrated, which is going to be interesting.

Also I'm taking a class on quantum mechanics as related to chemistry. Should be fun and mathematical.
 
why would it bother you even if he had no idea what they were about? who cares. They look cool regardless.
