nicky joined china>Central American state Nicaragua has joined the ILRS moon base program as China continues its push to attract partners for the project.>The China National Space Administration (CNSA) also reached agreements April 24 with the Asia-Pacific Space Cooperation Organization, headquartered in Beijing, and the Arab Union for Astronomy and Space Sciences. The agreements were reported by Chinese state media.https://spacenews.com/nicaragua-signs-up-to-chinas-ilrs-moon-program/

If 85% of the universe needs to be composed of dark matter for general relativity to work the way it does, isn't it simpler to conclude that general relativity simply doesn't work the way we think it does?When you presume that the standard model is correct, and that dark matter is needed for it to work, you're way more likely to just point at the few bits of evidence for dark matter detection and ignore all the failed attempts to detect it.You've already decided on the conclusion beforehand. The experiments and research don't matter.
>>16146215Being within an order of magnitude is pretty good when it comes to Astronmy iirc.
>>16146230Anything short of 99.9___% accurate is hot garbage.Good Lord, no wonder academia is trash these days...
>>16145926>>16146005dark matter is bullshit. the universe is not homogeneous or isotropic, it was a dumb assumption from the start.
>Attend university or live on the streets.There was never a choice.
>>16146234That is an absurd standard to mandate for everything, unless you want lying about precision to be a standard in science.
>There's gotta be a breakthrough they aren't telling us.What is it? What have they achieved that will change the world, but they don't want to say?
>>16146057Nothing, the 'elites' are intellectually inferior to our schizoposters. The species just isn't very impressive.
>>16146138aren't you part of "the species"?? funny how you came at that from NPOV.
This is the kind of thing that scyence can manage to deliver on.
>>16146057God is already omnipotent. But, this reality is also here. Very confused, I think we must be in heaven or something else maybe? One theory is that, we don't have to do anything, we don't even need to eat. But, on the flip side, nothing good ever happens unless god wants it. That's what's happening bro I'm pretty sure. So, I may be the most perfect creation because I'm Jewish. You're all like half people. You are warriors of light and you will be sent to the forges of hellfire and brimstone to forge iron goylem made of steel. My IQ is over 300, I've taken over several minor Latino colleges and have been tricking them to breed with niggers. This is going to create the Messiah, an army of niggerspics whose generics are ultra perfect. This new race of sapiens will develop. They will be sent to work in the forges casting iron made of pure steel to press into spoons to feed my slaves. I will be constructing more forges in Africa as my race of genetically perfect super beings level up.
>>16146174yes. yes. good. it's the cars fault
Does diversity make teams work better?Apparently not!A new, comprehensive preregistered meta-analysis found that, whether the diversity was demographic, cognitive, or occupational, its relationship with performance was near-zero.
>>16145407>Just stop being bad people and start being good people and stop making excuses.You're talking about the jews right?
>>16145429I'm talking about everyone, stop looking for excuses and become a good person, you flake.
>>16142759i work with many foreigners. Im a foreigner too. Basically at my workplace we have self-organized in tribes according to general ethnicity, it solves the language problems.As to productivity, we work as hard as anyone else. Our tasks are mostly individual with barely any need for team work.Team work is bullshit for the most part, it brings in coordination problems and personality clashes that simply dont exist when you work alone. Team work brings in opportunities for sabotage and dilution of responsibility. Managers promote it as it reduces worker's power and increases management's power. Diverse team work is the same idea but turbocharged.
>>16145407>>16145440Anon, when the very culture and moral framework one ascribes to is directly underthreat from a hostile external part what should one do?
>>16145469One should become a good person and have no loyalty to anyone unless they are also good.
Why is it controversial to say that human races have mental differences between them? It just doesn't make any sense. Yes, humans have a genetic bottleneck but humans have diverged since coming out of Africa that their physical features can be wildly different. We have the blacks, the pinks, the yellows, the abos. All look very different from each other physically.There are differences in Race when it comes to medicine. White People are more prone to skin cancer than any other race due to a lack of melanin in their skin. Black people are at higher risks for high blood pressure, certain types of cancers and diabetes. Asians are at higher risks for liver disease than other races. Mixed race individuals are more likely to have these risks offset due to being biracial or multiracial but in some cases their risks of diseases prevalent in their heritage might be higher. Just like there are differences in biological sexes for treatment. Some humans like the Badjao or the Tibetans have evolved higher lung capacity compared to the average human.So we have all these physical differences, affecting even diseases and medical treatment but somehow mentally we are all the same? That's kinda fishy no?
>>16145770what about arabs like spanish/italians?Where's the evolutionary pressure in spain for those arabs who picked fruits from those trees there?What about Carthage, they were rich and yet they lived in deserts for centuries.
>>16146034>A review of the world literature on brain size and IQ by Rushton [Rushton, J. P. (1995). Race, evolution, and behavior: a life history perspective. New Brunswick, NJ: Transaction] found that African-descended people (Blacks) average cranial capacities of 1267 cm3, European-descended people (Whites) 1347 cm3, and East Asian-descended people (East Asians) 1364 cm3. These brain size differences, containing millions of brain cells and hundreds of millions of synapses, were hypothesized to underlie the race differences on IQ tests, in which Blacks average an IQ of 85, Whites 100, and East Asians 106. The validity of the race differences in brain size, however, continues to be disputed. In the present study, the race differences in brain size are correlated with 37 musculoskeletal variables shown in standard evolutionary textbooks to change systematically with increments in brain size. The 37 variables include cranial traits (such as jaw size and shape, tooth size and shape, muscle attachment sites, and orbital bone indentations), and postcranial traits (such as pelvic width, thighbone curvature, and knee joint surface area). Across the three populations, the “ecological correlations” [Jensen, A. R. (1998). The g factor. Westport, CT: Praeger] between brain size and the 37 morphological traits averaged a remarkable r = .94; ρ = .94. If the races did not differ in brain size, these correlations could not have been found. It must be concluded that the race differences in average brain size are securely established. As such, brain size-related variables provide the most likely biological mediators of the race differences in intelligence.https://www.researchgate.net/publication/222683780_Brain_size_IQ_and_racial-group_differences_Evidence_from_musculoskeletal_traits
>>16146034Yes? And that's not relying on the overwhelming 'nonphysical' evidence
>>16146153>Whites 100, and East Asians 106That's funny, Murray and Hernstein claim it is only 0-3 pointshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUdkzI5YMOkand that is considering all whites as an aggregate, not distinguishing between various ethnicities as is commonly done for Asians and jews
>>16146153>A review of the world literature on brain size and IQ by Rushton [Rushton, J. P. (1995). Race, evolution, and behavior: a life history perspective.

If it were purely volume asians wouldn't have the largest (they are on average much smaller peoples than blacks or whites). Regardless it's not volume of the brain that is most important, but how "wrinkled" or contoured it is, coupled with the size and development of the frontal lobe?
Is being gay definitely natural?>it's been observed in other animals!Never in my life have I seen gay dogs or cats. Do I really trust "papers" published in the past century?>kids from good non-abusing families can grow up to be gay!Yes so that means something else caused it.>there's no such thing as a gay gene!Exactly
>>16144926>Never in my life have I seen gay dogs or cats.I work with dogs and I can assure you that male dogs try to fuck other male dogs all the time lol
>>16144926if gay is based on identity then it isn't natural since identities are social constructions. if a biological male identifying as a male is attracted to a biological male identifying as a female, and identity is by word alone, not physical characteristics, and that attraction i mentioned between those two people is classified as 'straight' by lgbtqia+ people, then that's all you need to know that gayness isn't natural and is a social construction.
>>16145874>99% of Gay men can trace it back to someone in their youth abusing them.Where does that number come from? Did you make it up?
>>16145901>the real question is whether it's moral. the answer is noSource?
>>16146221Yes. They did. Gay men report lower abuse rates than even straight men. It's women and bisexuals that report all the abuse.Maybe abuse turns you straight?
How come soience can't save him? Is soience really that useless and impotent? In 1971 Richard Nixon announced "the war on cancer" and since then trillions of dollars have been spent on 'research' and even with over half a century of study the issue and infinite resources available, soience still has no idea how to deal with cancer, why not?
>>16146197In 1971 Nixon also took us off the gold standard. You need something of real value in order to pay for all that.
>>16146202Gold isn't any more intrinsically valuable than the assurances of a major world power's government

>>16146197>and even with over half a century of study the issue and infinite resources available, soience still has no idea how to deal with cancerAre you retarded? We're better at treating cancer now than ever before in history. Cancer treatment has improved enormously since the 70s.
>Last September, astronomers in Japan detected a series of objects in the Kuiper Belt – described by the BBC as a "doughnut shaped region of icy bodies" beyond the orbit of Neptune – that had unusually warped orbits around the Sun. Researchers Michael Brown and Konstantin Batygin, from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) in Pasadena, speculated that only a massive planet's gravitational pull could explain these "orbital anomalies", said Live Science.>Then in February, scientists narrowed down the "likely hiding" place of the "elusive" planet after they "whittled away" 78% of the "hypothetical world's suspected orbital pathway", said Philip Plait in Scientific American.https://theweek.com/science/the-hunt-for-planet-nine>If things go at this rate, it might take about a decade [to find].Quote from 4.5 years agohttps://youtu.be/pe83T9hISoY

>>16139554*Planet 10
>>16146087see >>16140797 the truth is it wasn't uncommon for objects to be initially classed as planets and then declassed. Ceres was first thought to be a planet and then changed into asteroid after similar bodies were discovered. But of course, this happened before mass media and pop culture were present to generate controversy around such ordinary process.
>>16140793He ruled out where can be based on what they've searched and what the effects are and that also rules out a lot of sizes. At most it's a size a bit bigger than Earth up to maybe two or three masses

>>16141793>>16143120This is a very slow board and this is the first time I've seen /sci/ talk about it since it's reveal on April 16th.

With Election Tourists turning it into a clot-shot discussion board and climate-change denial club. >>16143319>Qrd?A species of phytoplankton algae (native to the pacific ocean) has managed to successfully envelope, and assimilate, a species of nitrogen fixing bacteria into its' body as a new organelle. The bacteria is no longer symbiotic, but an actual permeant addition of the phytoplankton's physiology and gets replicated when it replicates and passed on when it has whatever it considers sex. This is significant for two reasons:-Nitrogen fixing has previously been the sole domain of bacteria. -This is observable documented evidence of -I can't remember the word for it- that theory where progressively complex organisms evolved by forming permanent long-term relationships with other bacteria to form their organelles and to in effect become "creatures in a trench coat". >>16144755>can i hab source plzTry these:https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adk1075https://astrobiology.com/2024/04/the-nitroplast-revealed-a-nitrogen-fixing-organelle-in-a-marine-alga.html

How can you believe in evolution when it's only a theory (a guess)?

Cherry blossoms bloom in Tokyo, 15 days later than last year, 5 days later than averagehttps://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/03/29/japan/society/cherry-blossoms-bloom-tokyo/Cherry blossoms finally burst into bloom in Tokyo on Friday after heavy rain in the morning, marking the latest blooming in over a decade.The declaration of the blooming made by the Meteorological Agency came 15 days later than last year and five days later than in an average year. Private forecasters had also expected this year's bloom to come much earlier.Friday’s blooming is the latest in Tokyo since 2012, when cherry blossoms were declared to have blossomed on March 31, according to the agency.Cherry blossom forecasting is big business in Japan. As early as in January, companies start to issue forecasts for when cherry blossoms will first bloom and reach their peak.The weather agency, which began forecasting the annual bloom in 1955, sets a government standard for observing cherry blossom trees. For consistency, the meteorological agency only uses data gathered from the Somei-Yoshino variety, which produces pale pink blossoms.
>>16136602>it got warmer after the little ice age ended shocking
>>16144557That was a local event and it is not reflected in the Sakura blossom data.See >>16137955The little ice age lasts from about 1400 to about 1700. Sakuras blossom slightly earlier until about 1550, but the trends do not match >>16136602
>>16144620>Sakuras blossom slightly later from 1400 until about 1550*
>>16144620>That was a local eventNo it wasn't, it occurred in Japan same as in the rest of the world
>>16145806No it didn't and that PDF doesn't prove that it did. If it had then why isn't it reflected in the Sakura blossom data?
Good news everyone, it turns out that plants like CO2. How come scientists never discovered this until recently? Seems like it should be big news, but they never talk about it.
CO2=Plant food
>>16145369>we invented another peak to own youThe runoff simply turns into more sea food and ultimately ocean sediment. Shit is more common than sulfur.
>>16116672>How come scientists never discovered this until recently?You are making a fundamental mistake conflating what you, personally, are aware of, with what "scientists discovered". Your ignorance is not their ignorance.
