>umm so the thing inside the black hole is actually a 5d dimension where you can time travel
By far the worst deus ex machina I've seen in movies
Quick rundown? I forgot this particular meme.
pretty much everything one needs to know to be a decent electrician.
and a little trig for phase calcs
Not really, all of this won't help you pick the proper diameter of a cable or tell you how to build a circuit with 3 switches.
There is a lot to learn or at least remember where to read it up if needed.
imagine that the donut is spacetime and the hotdog is your spaceship
Charlie Sheen is God?
No, that's his pedo outfit.
A-am I the pen or the paper?
>If I fold the paper and jam a pen through it...
>WORMHOLE!!!1!
Concurrent algorithm problem from Pantheon. Seemed like they just googled "some geeky sound like problem" and copypasted wikipedia article into the show
the entirety of "Lucy". awful, lazy scriptwriting.
Yeah, Luc Besson movies are all really terrible.
netflix is for idiots
not a flick but Dark's take on time travel and how it relates to highly basic quantum mechanics pissed off myself and every physicist/mathematician i know that saw it
Quick rundown on the Dark's time travel? I haven't seen it and don't intend to. All I know is that it's Stranger Things but German.

The movie "Pi" by aranofsky. The entire script is fricking pathetic, like a stoned high schooler who never studied maths in his life, but had a fleeting interest in "mathsy kinda shit" wrote it.
what annoys me about pi in a rewatch is that scene where dude is in a israeli deli and this hasidic israelite is talking about hebrew as the language of god and how ever number correlates to a letter.
there are also tons and tons of youtubes that say this as well.
no one explains why or for what purpose. you can correlate numbers and letters to anything. you can correlate a different pair of animals on the ark to a pair of socks. you can correlate letters to car brands you see on the freeway.
there is never an explanation. why do this shit in the first place? so it becomes like the i ching, where you ask a question, flip to a random page, and read a line at random and there will be your answer.
but at least with the iching as a meme, you know what to do. you get the game. it's for anytime you are stuck. it's like looking at poetic language to figure out what you really want since you bend the meaning.
yet there is no such meaning in the hebrew Aleph = 1 cosmology. If there is, it's never explained.
I don't think the purpose of Pi was to convince the viewer of the correctness of Kabbalah.

That's Aronofsky in a nutshell though, dude has no business making "arthouse" flicks being such an obvious midwit.
I've heard the math scenes in the movie Cube are similarly bad, but I'm a moron so I can't confirm
I remember in an old episode of MacGyver he was pretending to be a computer scientist of some sort and he referred to a gigabyte as a jigabyte which was pretty funny
The creator of the gigabyte says its pronounced jigabyte
he's not a linguist though is he, he's wrong
Code is programing lol its basically language math shit. Look that shit up homie no lies brotha
it's not linguistics, and the suffix "giga" existed before computers so yes he's wrong
Idk about all that but you seem alright my man. Let's just agree that it's pronounced jif
Language isn’t static. An idea can be conveyed “improperly” and still be considered correctly spoken.
Tenet (2020)
>Volts
>E
Wut
(E)lectric potential
(I)ntensity of the current
(P)ower
(R)esistance
>(I)ntensity of the current
Wut. I know current is charge over time, where's intensity come in?
that's what Ampere called it, you have to imagine it as a flow of electric charges. I don't know enough about electricity to say whether that rappresentation is obsolete by now, but that's where using I for electric current originated
Hmm, interesting.
Its always been U where i live, never heard anyone use E for potential difference.
same for my country actually, in fact I was wrong and E stands for "electromotive force"
I guess U is used because it's similar enough to a V but can still be differentiated from the simbol for volts
Its from latin "urgere"
wait really? That's pretty cool
tenet because they half explain it, which i was fine with, then make it more complicated but also explain in a way dumber way later
The thing about Tenet is that it doesn't really play by its own rules and makes a lot less sense once you wrapped your head around it.

Noticing a pattern here
>What's the worst "science talk" you've witnessed in a flick?
got this:
>be me
>be end of the week
>tough week for all of us: me an artist, buds: geneticists (3 of them), 1 a mathematician involved in the Human Genome Project, and 1 finishing his post-doc in medical research related shit,
>we decide to watch a movie, instead of going out
>which movie?
>I say, "Red Planet, I hear it's really good."
>They say, "OK, but it had better be good, anon, remember that Pelican Brief bullshit you vouched for"
>Me, remembering the reviews, know it's in the bag: "Trust, bros. Trust."
>1 beer into the movie
>Tom Sizemore, some kind of "expert in genetics" says something like:
"My whole life is A, G, T, P," referring to the 4 DNA nucleotides
>DNA nucleotides are A, G, T, and C
>not fricking P
>there's no fricking "P" wtf
>apartment explodes in laughter
>and I didn't get to choose another movie for the rest of the year
fricking Hollywood brainlets
I don’t know if it counts as “science talk” but there’s a scene in the GI Joe movie where the hacker character says she is going to “cyber blast an encryption beacon every 30 minutes” and that line made me laugh so hard I still think about it over a decade later
There is also that underwater base that gets crushed by ice DROPPING DOWN.
IN WATER!
I don’t really know anything about science but the best lit joke in a show was Family Guy when Stewie was at Proust’s grave and trying to read the inscription. He goes “I wish Brian were here to pretend like he knows what this means.” Then later Brian shows up and is like “wow, beautiful.”
Whipping out a classic
I BYPASSED THE COMPRESSOR
HAHAHAHAHA I BYPASSED THE FRICKING COMPRESSOR
IN A FRICKING SPACECRAFT
YOU FRICKING prostitute YOU GOS DAMNED FRICKING c**t
I BYPASSED THE FRICKING COMPRESSOR
The only thing that makes sense to have a compressor AND be in the wienerpit is the air-conditioning. She shut down the aircon.... well done reytard.
>She shut down the aircon
tbf in cars that b***h sucks away some horsepower
I think they are probably a lot more important in space.

The entirety of The Martian. Absolute fricking dogshit
I know how to do calculations with them (I'm good with caclulashion) but I can't understand how voltage and amperage work in a practical setting. I looked up so many videos from the highway portrayal to the monkey backpack portrayal and I can't understand
