You can remember something, but it's just a pattern of connections in your brain that were already in place by the present. You will never experience that memory in the present. And you from the past doesn't exist anymore just as you right now are just a hitchhiker on a ride that you're privileged to be on at this very moment.

If you teleported someone is it even them anymore? You just reconstructed their brain in another place. At the same time, you're constantly teleporting forwards in time at a constant rate; walking forward through the fourth dimension. Here we are, new strangers to ourselves with each passing moment.

I would have to always integrate a time rate of a reaction, say d[A]/dt = K I know that integrating the left side will get rid of dt altogether, but if I want to make things complicated, could I legally say d[A]=Kdt, then int(d[A])dt=K*int(dt)dt There's no point to doing so most of the time, but through my 5 and a half years of school so far, I always thought it might be useful in some situations

Edit: jeeze, I didn't know I would get so many downvotes.

In grad school, but I keep applying to jobs with no luck with openings requiring a BSME, but employers who have spots open for ME Techs have called me back multiple times making it seem like I'm the right guy for the job but they all allude to lots of working with machinery. I finally got a job with the help of a friend, but it took me a week to realize that my coworkers are technicians, and that I am a technician. I was lead to believe by the staffing company that they needed engineers because they really liked how I knew about all the mechanical materials tests.

The thing is, I really don't think anyone has any will to deceive me into taking a lower paying job. They all seem like they bel

They say to never clean your lenses dry, but they're talking about the first wipe where the lenses are coated in small dust particles which can cause microscuffing. It helps to first rinse them off under tap water; this will keep particles out of your wet cloth. After the particles are off, the cleaning solution acts much like a dish soap (a degreaser) to get the skin oils off. These oils (though they are dissolved into the first cloth) come out of solution when the solution air-dries. Your dry cloth can wipe up and wick away those broken-up oils with no problem.

I don't feel pain when I do it, but after the drive home from school when I like to sing along, my cords feel loose and floppy. My glottis feels like it got a workout. Been transitioning from a proto-scream to a louder sing-along fry. This is not a science by any means, so I was thinking since no one can just watch a video on it and do it immediately that there is some time it takes to strengthen those muscles to hold the cords together. It's just a hunch but I feel like you relax the thyroarytenoid muscle and you contract the transverse arytenoid muscle anatomy, and this may account for this fe
