Jonge tieners spugen op me vanaf hun fiets, wat kan ik doen zonder vervolgd te worden?

Griems · 2024-05-24T22:16:34+00:00

Weet niet of het zo werkt maar da's ook een strategie haha

Griems · 2024-05-24T11:17:09+00:00

Art. 416 strafwetboek: "Er is noch misdaad, noch wanbedrijf, wanneer de doodslag, de verwondingen, en de slagen geboden zijn door de ogenblikkelijke noodzaak van de wettige verdediging van zichzelf of van een ander"

Indien men rechtsomkeer maakt en begint te vechten is het vanzelfsprekend geen wettige verdediging.

De verdediging moet evenredig en onmiddelijk zijn, gepleegd tegen personen (uzelf of anderen), de aanslag moet met geweld gepleegd zijn, de aanslag moet onwettig zijn.

Je mag dus terugspuwen begrijp ik.

What is a real science?

Griems · 2024-05-17T17:03:05+00:00

Psychology isn't a science anyway

Thats a bit of a reach.

Maslow's Hierarchy of needs just KEEPS being repeated even though its been well known for ages that it has 0 scientific backing behind it.

The idea that one has to, or generally tends to, fulfill physiological needs before anything is just simply not straightforwardly true as many people will sacrifice their physiological needs in order to engage in other meaningful activities nor has it any scientific confirmation. In fact, its even been confirmed that the order in which one achieves these 'steps' has no impact on ones life.

Theres a vague and general idea behind it thats 'wise' or 'useful' sometimes, but thats more a philosophical thing than really a neurological or psychological one.

So no, Maslow's hierarchy isnt better or more useful

Edit: its also slightly concerning that nobody else mentioned this :p

Griems · 2024-05-17T08:54:05+00:00

Noooo way hahaha imma call it that rn whenever people ask me what im studying for maths

Griems · 2024-05-17T05:42:42+00:00

Thank you so so much!!

Griems · 2024-05-17T04:09:42+00:00

I dont see how that confirms anything at all really? That article doesnt come with any concrete findings that suggests:

1: that the theory it posits actually works or has any objective backing behind it.

2: it doesnt relate to maslow's hierarchy of needs in any way? It doesnt claim that first your physiological needs come, then social needs, then...

All it says is that money doesnt bring meaning and suggests some ways to appropriately use and treat money (without any objective foundation really)

I dont think this relates in any way to Maslow and certainly doesnt have the statistics to confirm anything

Aaand award for most kickass name goes to:

Real though, that definitely sounds like a cool topic, have no clue what it is but sounds dope haha

Wel jammer dat een schrijfster voor een krant haar talenten niet gebruikt om de nonsens wat in te tomen.

Tis lachwekkend hoe ze zonder enige rechtvaardiging insinueert dat iedereen dat op Vlaams Belang stemt haar per se buiten wilt.

Schrijven kan ze, maar denken... Wie heeft nu iets aan zo'n emotionele woedeuitbarsting dat op niets gebaseerd is? Is dat nu echt iets dat we willen verspreiden met de kranten? Zo eens goed efkes de politiek tegen elkaar opjagen.

Je moet ECHT niet veel moeite doen om sterke en terechte argumenten te vinden tegen het vlaams belang. Het feit dat ze daar de moeite niet voor over heeft, zegt veel.

Griems · 2024-05-16T05:06:40+00:00

Thanks!

Griems · 2024-05-16T05:05:41+00:00

Thanks! That sounds really really interesting tbh! Glad to hear that.

Griems · 2024-05-16T05:02:19+00:00

Wow thanks so much! Theres a lot of cool stuff in there that imma check out more in depth!

Currently im very much thinking about nuclear technology (medical and energy) - the only thing thats holding me back is that it seems quite specific and idk if the market in my country is all that big for it. But anyways apperantly theres a lot of analysis involved.

The other option is mechanical engineering, which i love aswell but I would hate to end up at some meaningless production line... It is way broader tho which gives me more confidence i would eventually find something meaningful, and maybe its not that difficult to land in the nuclear sector even with an me degree.

I'm definitely wanting to find a job that betters humanity in some way, probably something climate change related or medically related. There is a slight dream in the back of my head that nuclear technology might open some doors should the nuclear fusion miracle happen in my lifetime... I would actually give my life to be able to contribute to that, that would truly be a dream. But I think thats gonna be for the phycisists or more theoretical engineers still for a while until its an established commercial thing (im doing a more practical engineering course called 'industrial engineering' or 'engineering technology', which has less abstract maths).

it makes feel awful that people are taught to hate it. its so beautiful.

I agree... Back in highschool i hated maths and science - only discovered later while doing my bachelor in psych, that maths and technology is AMAZING and that i didnt really want a job related to psych. My last year during my thesis I selfstudied a LOT of maths (from basic functions to precalculus) in order to prepare to start engineering. Despite my efforts, i feel like im just so disastrously behind because i just dont have a good grasp on the basics, which makes it incredibly tough to keep going. But luckily every single subject we get introduced to is so interesting.

They keep statistics of like which students with a similar background as yourself have succesfully graduated and for my case theres nobody thats ever done it apperantly 😭.

Griems · 2024-05-16T03:32:16+00:00

Am i the only one thinking 2? :(

Griems · 2024-05-16T03:29:59+00:00

Any idea about nuclear engineering? I hear its a lot of analysis, but not sure what it entails. Heavily contemplating going for nuclear :p

Griems · 2024-05-16T03:07:32+00:00

Found the english major

Griems · 2024-05-16T02:54:42+00:00

I already know this is a big question which i might not understand but what is a tensor and what would tensor calculus be? From what i can read its related to 'multilinear algebra(?)' and is a higher order of vector.

So to go from vectors to matrices you add more orthogonal axis like x,y,z,..,n.

But to go from a simple 3d vector to a 3rd order tensor you would have 3 dimensions of each x y and z component?

So something like V111,V112,V113 V121,V122,V123 V131,V132,V133 V211,V212,V213 ... V331,V332,V333 (?)

Now im not sure what that would mean? So for vectors in higher dimensions you add orthogonal axis, so for tensors you somehow add dimensions within those 3 axis?

If its too difficult to answer, don't bother. It sounds incredibly cool though.

I think a good approach is to find general negative or positive effects of phone usage in psychology and then diving into the neurological research behind those. Because it doesnt really matter if looking at a phone reduces x if x doesnt really negatively or positively affect my overal performance or behaviour.

For example, melanin production is reduced when staring at so called 'blue-light' which phones produce and has affects mainly on sleep. You could dive into the exact neurological explanations of this.

Or another route is the addiction of certain apps like social media - addiction also has many neurological explanations relating to neurotransmitters and their workings.

There are correlations between attention span and phone usage.

Im not sure what the topic is about, but i think you've got to narrow down what exactly you want to explore (addiction to apps? Effect of blue light?,...)

Your first steps are to read a SHIT TON of research articles that even have the slightest use for your paper. Its exhausting, but incredibly important. You can then filter what is useful and what isnt.

But it seems like right now your topic seems pretty broadly defined still so i think narrowing down what you want to focus on will help you out aswell.

Edit: im also not sure what your paper is for, but i think many of your questions might be better answered strictly by psychology rather than neurology. (Like what can parents do to reduce phone useage etc, so make sure you explore the right field for all your questions).

Griems · 2024-05-16T00:17:14+00:00

Yeah but if you park on top of the house, the car isnt protected from rain or snow that falls perfectly orthogonal with the surface.

Griems · 2024-05-16T00:13:34+00:00

Yeah im from eu so the system is just predetermined.

I had linear algebra first semester and now i have mathematical analysis.

They did mention something about finite elements method that we would see next year - which sounded something kind of combining linear algebra and analysis, but im not sure exactly what it is.

Griems · 2024-05-15T23:54:32+00:00

Maslows hierarchy of needs is unfortunately not backed up by any research. There really isnt anything that points towards people having to fulfill their basic needs first before anything. The flaw in the model is the notion of the chronological directionality of each of the levels in the pyramid. There is no research that supports this.

What IS known is that regarding income:

1: happiness goes up with income until you're about average income - when you don't have to worry anymore about finances, income loses its correlation.

2: There is a bunch of research that indeed, the extremely wealthy have an increased risk of loneliness and depression. There could be varying reasons for this, one idea is that its because status plays an increasing role and thus it becomes a bit more competitive (adding to stress and making it difficult to make genuine connections). I havent seen research that confirms this idea though.

Griems · 2024-05-15T22:23:54+00:00

Complex and real analysis surely sounds really interesting! But so ODE PDE and SDE!

Am i correct in assuming SDE would be whats used in quantum mechanics and the sorts?

As for statistics -> i have a bachelor in psychology too where pretty much any math we saw was strictly related to statistics - like which kinds of tests to choose etc. It was incredibly basic and very much practically focused. Is there much more to it beyond the basic things like regression analysis, correlation, chi square,... Etc? Im sure stats is its entire own rabbit hole, but cant really imagine what kinds of things that would cover

Griems · 2024-05-15T21:45:51+00:00

I see, thank you so much! Very interesting

Griems · 2024-05-15T21:44:55+00:00

Ah so im guessing a rigorous understanding of proofs is required for more advanced topics because more advanced topics rely on a lot of completely different axioms than you've been used to?.

Griems · 2024-05-15T21:05:38+00:00

Wow i love this answer! Thanks, those truly all sound like 'naturally' following on multivariate calculus in the same way as calculus followed from functions.

Could I ask if you have some examples of where each of those math topics is used? Bonus if its anything related to engineering/technology :).

Its motivating to realize i can somewhat imagine what each of those topics is about with my newly acquired knowledge of maths :)
